What in the Bitter Lawyer is going on in this picture?
Put your lawyerly wit to the test and post a comment with a hilarious caption about this judge’s discovery. And keep it clean. (Ish.) The editors’ favorite entry will be announced next Saturday, April 25th.

I’ve GOT to get this zipper on this robe fixed! My fellow learned jurists don’t appreciate sitting next to me when I smell like a public urinal.
Hiding a hooker to blow me while I argued was the best idea ever!
whoops…..!
Looks like I owe Scalia twenty bucks. Turns out she couldn’t do it without leaving a stain.
Hazing the new justice begins win the old Viagra in the water trick…
“I’ll show them long arm jurisdiction!”
“I am a superstar.”
amazing how these robes tent up!
Hazing the new justice begins with the old Viagra in the water trick…
(Typo in the other one – “with” not “win”)
Bitter Lawyer can “suck it” if they didn’t like my caption entry last week!!!
Oy! How am I going to explain to the Chief Judge another one of these “strategically placed” stains?
Get a life, Craig!
Oral arguments at the Supreme Court take a brief break while the respondent attorney demonstrates the proper technique for the Western Grip Hand Job.
Anon, sorry if I was not clear, but my caption was what the guy in the picture is thinking. I could care less if Bitter Lawyer thinks my captions are funny. Get a sense of humor buddy.
Ah, so THIS is what they mean when they refer to “SCOTUS SCROTUM!”
I thought Craig’s was funny. Why would anyone take that personally?
Counsel, your oral argument is very effective.
Craig, we are going to send c_broski after you unless you lighten up! You may not be a dickwad, but you sure are acting like one.
I am an attorney and I came across this website. I was so shocked and disgusted to find what feels more like a frat house forum and chauvinistic display of immaturity than an actual venue for professionals to have meaningful discussions about the legal profession. I am ashamed that you would even be colleagues of mine. This website is an embarrassment.
LJ,
Lighten up. Seriously, table the righteous indignation and join in the fun. Attorneys as a whole get a bad name from people like you. The stereotype of the humorless, emotionless, drone associate is perpetuated whenever a layperson interacts with an attorney such as yourself. Either post a funny comment or go back to document review. Dickhead.
To all who are offended by (sometimes very lame)attempts at humor: STOP WHINING! Your plattitudes are lame.
I read “LJ“‘s comment and am shocked and embarrassed.
That said, a great caption for the picture might be “The justice astounds his bench brethren onlookers with a brazen display of how a law clerk should really satisfy a judge—beneath his robes!”

Take THAT LJ!!
LJ–Lazy Jerk? Loudmouth Jeebus? Go easy, man, you need a serious BJ for the nerves. Get a friggin’ life! How long have been you out of TTT law school?
Wow! I had no idea that case was so stimulating! Now I’m going to have to figure out how to get this stain out of this robe.
Hmm–I wonder if Junior Justice gets a vote?
If only, US News had a rankings for this…
