Barisone- New Thread

I’ve tried Quordle but gave it up after a few weeks, but I do love the Wordle. My husband does Worldle - it’s absolutely infuriating.

Getting back from the sidetracks. He has his robe on, which seems to indicate he’s doing something official.

At one point yesterday when they had the camera on the empty room, he did not have his robe on, which looked really weird.

For the record, I didn’t really know what you meant when you did it…

But I giggled anyways. I thought it was funny.

But I giggle and joke too much. :woman_shrugging: :rofl:

Apparently in NJ a it has to be done in open court with all the parties present. It doesn’t appear the stream is going to have sound or show the video of the witness. Just Judge Taylor playing Candy Crush up on the screen.

I had not seen the movie, but I do see the use of the snowflake as a shorthand for the sentiment in bold.

Not sure MHM will endorse that interpretation at this point.

the ‘later movie’ I think was made for TV, with Jack Lemon. It is very good! It has been a while since I saw the original with Henry Fonda, so I don’t know how close to the script they were. I find it sometimes boring when the dialog is almost word for word the same as something done 30 years prior (I think Jack Lemon was in the 1980s, he was quite spry then still)

I just want to repeat, because it frustrates me to no end… if I were on the jury, and was told I absolutely could NOT take notes… only to watch the Judge, Prosecutor, Defense, and Defendant all taking notes?? My head would explode.

I wonder how on earth they can reach an actual just conclusion if they aren’t allowed to compare time lines and histories and the order of things. It seems bizarre to me.

Even if they assigned 2-3 jurors to be the note takers and gave them simple no internet tablets. With multiple parties taking notes there would be less confusion etc.

But it’s a reference to Elsa from Frozen, right? TBKite has provided a convincing interpretation based on the movie.

Apparently lots of people missed the “cultural” reference.

I am laughing that people who have been reading (in theory) these threads all along do not know what the snowflake means.
Oh the selective memory thing.

It does not mean “I’m really chill like Elsa” it means “Let it go”. In other words, it is someone telling others to not play along with the game and not take the bait.

I tried Worldle just one time. I got very lucky and got the answer right on the first try, but I knew that was going to be a rare thing, so I decided to retire from that game undefeated. Lol.

I do Wordle every day, and Quordle most days, although the latter can be vexing. Lol.

In a one day trial with less than 5 witnesses, I could handle it. In a trial this long with witnesses that change their story from direct to cross, doctors like all 3 of them, etc…I would be lost.

I just had a mental image of 12 people watching a 13 inch screen laptop.

I looked up juror’s note taking. In NJ they are allowed to take notes; however, occasionally, a judge may disallow it.

I don’t think I realized there was more than one version. I only knew about the original, but I’ve never watched it. Not yet, anyway. That might change after this trial.

The “cultural” reference was brought up when the emoji was first employed for that purpose in a previous thread.

Right, which would blow my mind if I was on the jury for a complicated 2 week trial where multiple witnesses lied and crossed their testimonies.

I think it would lean me towards a Not Guilty purely because I wouldn’t be ok convicting someone on my own ‘memory’ or ‘overall impression’ as Taylor initially instructed them to do.

I wonder how the jurors refer to the Mustache in their conversations.
