quiz: which federal rule of civil procedure are you?

Posted on by

Boy howdy, don’t you find some weird things out there in Quizland. But this one is so totally me. Absolutist, but not, like, all uptight about it.

 

Which Federal Rule of Civil Procedure Are You?

 

YOU ARE RULE 15!

You’re a very helpful rule! You allow the attorney to amend their complaint once as a matter of course at any time before the answer is filed, and also allow amendments in other cases. If a claim relates back to the original transaction or occurrence outlined in the complaint, you can amend the complaint, even though the statute of limitations has run. Like a good friend, you’re always there to help out in a bind.

I’m SO enraged about this, you have no idea. And it happened in Seattle, of all places!

Fundies! Bah! It’s not enough that they try to prevent girls from getting an education, cover women’s faces, and consequently subject Chanel cosmetics to vast overpricing in the finer Gulf department stores.

No.

Now they’ve finally done it. Forcing this gorgeous creature to cover up! Congrats to Archie on finding photographic evidence of this outrageous suppression of natural beauty.

Indiana Jones and the Call of Cthulhu: complete text

What do you people think? Is he going after Cthulhu this time?

It’s just too bloody perfect, you know. The protagonist in The Call of Cthulhu was an aging archaeologist with a reputation for doing things his own way. With his trusty buddy, Inspector Legrasse, he crosses the globe, attempting to puzzle out the mysterious connection between a precious religious artifact, a cannibalistic cult of Louisiana swamp dwellers, and a vicious tribe of Greenland Esquimaux.

Blowing away forever all pretence to cool I may once have possessed, I have re-edited Howard Phillips Lovecraft‘s immortal Gothic tale The Call of Cthulhu, and placed at its heart a certain Midwestern academic who is, himself, no stranger to the strange.

quiz: has American culture ruined you?

American what?


You Have Not Been Ruined by American Culture


You’re nothing like the typical American. In fact, you may not be American at all.

You have a broad view of the world, and you’re very well informed.

And while you certainly have been influenced by American culture (who hasn’t?), it’s not your primary influence.

You take a more global philosophy with your politics, taste, and life. And you’re always expanding and revising what you believe.

Has American Culture Ruined You?
