gotta work for a man, but your biggest monkeymaker's flaccid!
Studying for law midterm, I realize the ninth edition of LAW AND SOCIETY by Stephen Vago is the most ridiculous piece of shit I've ever had to skim the night before a midterm.
It used the word "womb veil" in reference to a diaphragm. I swear to God.
And here is the excerpt which prompted me to throw my notes against a wall and write this entry.
In reference to extralegal methods of dispute settlement:
"Disagreement, at times, is channeled into ritual. The parties to the dispute may confront each other before the assembled community and voice their contentions through songs and dances improvised for the occasion. In the form of a song, the accuser states all the abuses he or she can think of, and then the accused responds in kind. A number of such exchanges follows until the contestants are exhausted, and a winner emerges through public acclaim for the greater poetic of vituperative skill."
No, seriously.
And this is in a fucking law book. Like, no friendly "DID YOU KNOW?" boxes, bolded vocabulary words, glossary, diversified pictures of happy students, natta. It's a VERY SERIOUS book.
Malarkey. I call shenanigans on Stephen Vago, damnit!
Back to the grindstone...

ps- i fucking love the scissor sisters
