41: Double standards [Backdated]

[samuraiprosecutor]

A quiz, of sorts.

You are a highway patrol officer. On a sparsely occupied highway you see two vehicles exceeding the speed limit: a red sports car doing about 90mph, and a truck going at about 100mph.

Which car do you pull over?

You say that as if it might actually persuade me.

For someone who doesn't drive, you think you know a great deal on the subject.

[attorneyatlol]

I've been known to be awfully persuasive at times.

Hey, you can't blame me for being a concerned friend.

[samuraiprosecutor]

This is not one of those times.

I can't? I beg to differ. I'm not looking for a lecture, and in particular I don't need a lecture on driving from one who doesn't drive.

[attorneyatlol]

Another time, then.

Sorry. I didn't intend for it to sound like a lecture, but I'll remember that argument the next time you give me advice on how to do my job.

[samuraiprosecutor]

...I've done extensive research into the duties and techniques of defense. Have you studied driving, beyond a Driver's Education class taken years ago?

[attorneyatlol]

It's necessary to know the rules of the road when one of your primary sources of transportation is a bike.

[samuraiprosecutor]

There's more to driving than knowing the rules of the road, Wright. If needed, I'd be capable of serving as defense on any trial and, I daresay, serving extremely well. Can you say the same about driving?

[attorneyatlol]

...I'm going to refrain from answering that.

[samuraiprosecutor]

Should I take that as a 'no?'

[attorneyatlol]

Take it as an, 'I don't feel like getting into it with you right now.'

[samuraiprosecutor]

No? What a pity.
