    I have jury duty :(

    On the 13th and I am unhappy about this.

    As cool as it would be to get chosen for something awesome, i better not because I'm going on vacation in less than a month.

    No it's required to go. I'm sure there are ways to get out of it but mehhhh
    I still get paid as if I had actually gone to work so it's cool.

    I just have a very short attention span and do not enjoy sitting in one place unless it's in front of my laptop ofc.

    My hubby got jury duty once and was able to turn it down, he said it would interact with his work and he cant take the time off.

    I think that is so retarded that they randomly make ppl do jury duty, fuckers lol

    Meh, someone's gotta do it. D:

    They should feed me though. If they feed me, I will be happy.

    The trick to getting out of jury duty is to find out what the case is and then explain why you would be too biased. Black guy? I'm a hardcore racist and it wouldn't make a fair trial. I'm a hardcore social conservative/liberal. Just hit them with whatever makes you a terrible jury member for that case.

    That being said, it's your duty as a citizenship of these fine United States of America to sack up and do it.

    I am going to do it. That doesn't mean I have to be happy about it.

    Are you?
    Or will you disappoint that federal agent?

    My dad got jury duty, he was working and when they asked him he said "Shoot him." He wasn't chosen.
    I find in myself desires which nothing in this world can satisfy,
    the only logical explanation is that I was made for another world.
