Amusing, but the actual story is moreso. Turns out Mr Tansie tried to win the damages via property in CA "owned by god" since the deed had been recently signed over to god. ๐Ÿคฆ๐Ÿฝ

The rest of the examples in the Wikipedia article are pretty amusing too. ๐Ÿ˜

Incredible.

Imagine signing your property over to 'god' only to be told god lost a lawsuit and now your property belongs to some random woman

Still waiting on that settlement money. Any day now, right?

[โ€“] [email protected] 10 points 1 month ago

Gotta call 1-800-CASH-NOW.

Infinite money hack discovered

[โ€“] [email protected] 20 points 1 month ago (1 children)

That'd be difficult to collect.

[โ€“] Albbi 27 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Just sell the debt to a collection agency and have them worry about it.

I'd buy that debt for a hundredth of a cent per dollar.

God should've showed up and demanded judgment by a jury of his peers, and then gotten a mistrial since no peers would exist (assuming we're going with the Christian God here)

[โ€“] [email protected] 11 points 1 month ago

Cut to Zeus, Loki, Krishna, a golden calf, Jupiter, and the Sun bitching about jury duty while the pope wishes he had just settled because this was going to hurt the bottom line.

Isn't this how Lex Luthor got off, when Superman failed to turn up to court?

[โ€“] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Yeah, in Superman Returns. With Kevin Spacey.

Isn't that the one with the X-men actor who left the series to join DC?

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

The actor that played cyclops was Lois Lane's husband in the supes flick. Not sure if he left the X-Men series for that though.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

Isn't that the same mythological creature from Homer's Iliad?

Strange, I would think electricity would be a sign of the Devil.

I would also blame the Devil for friction and static.

Without fiction... how would we move? I mean to a point where we want to be and stop there. Not just anywhere we happen to end up.

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I still blame the Devil for the friction between my legs and nutsack.

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

That might be your ancestors fault. Don't blame the devil. According to Dante he's pretty chill(ed).
