No, it's not. Sareitha Sedai Send a noteboard - 21/02/2011 05:22:05 PM
Luckily for asshats everywhere.

Not that I'm not enjoying the fact that his blatant attention seeking has backfired so splendidly that Alanis might have to add a verse about it to her song, but jail time is most definitely not warranted here. And I can't even revel in the scare tactic aspect because it feels like such an abuse of power/the legal system.

If you are from Betelgeuse, please have one of your Earth friends read what I've written before you respond. Or try concentrating harder.
