Besides, who DOESN'T like a random willy viewing?!?!?!

Around 97% of male Farkers, I would guess.

Ahh yes, but how about Farkettes??? I mean, give the guy a break. This wasn't 'homeless willy'..this was ' lawyer willy'. Your chances of getting a jar of urine thrown on your are practically nil! :P

tee hee

He's an anti-scam lawyer. He uses his dark powers for the forces of good, not evil.

Let's see....

We're supposed to feel sorry for a lawyer. Who just made a million in court...

Let me think on this...mmmmmmmmmmm NO!"

Ok now back to your 2nd grade reading comprehension class. He did not gain a million for himself in court. He gained it for the state.
"walking back to his Ashburton Place office from Suffolk Superior Court with a $600,000 check he got for the state in a hard-fought settlement with a crooked telemarketing company."

We're supposed to feel sorry for a lawyer. Who just made a million in court...

No, he'd just made $600,000 for his employers -- that is, the taxpayers of the state of Massachusetts -- in a lawsuit against a frickin' telemarketing company. The million dollar award was to the plaintiffs in another sexual harassment lawsuit that inspired this one.

Anyone ever been taking a leak in a public restroom and then have a horde of girls come in because the line is too long for the women's restroom? Double standards suck. I know if I tried that in the women's bathroom I'd go to jail. Although it was funny watching a girl trying to pee in the 'trough' that the men get.


Stupid asshat designers need to either leave more standing room at the mirror for make-up/hair checks or put more stalls in the girl's room.

Rodeo My favorite double standard is female sportscasters in male locker rooms post game.

Peetah

Apparently they got the idea from some other janitors who worked for the same company who put forth a similar suit (whether or not THAT was a scame is up for debate) the year before.(as mentioned halfway through the article)

The precindent case apparently netted their co-workers a million dollars. Hispanic women in the US may have a disadvantage, but one can't just assume they're stupid.

In this situation, however, the words 'mean, spiteful' and 'downright criminal' do come to mind.

And that's two posts where someone else has beaten me to the punch. Screw it, I'm getting on my bicycle.

more of your tax dollars at work

/ha

to the lawyer:

karma's a biatch, aint it chuckles?

StomachMonkey The worst instances of that are always at concerts! I'm a female myself and always laugh at the women who try to sneak in the mens room. It got so bad once at a Mighty Mighty Bosstones concert that they actually had security guards posted at the exit door of the mens room just to keep women from sneaking in. Me, I'd rather just haul my drunk ass outside for a smoke break and squat between a couple of cars. Nothing says class like pissing on a Honda.

Women want equality?
No they want it their way.

When exactly did this janitor become the spokesperson for my gender?

Am I the only one that thinks there's something more to this story?

Honestly, guys, how many of you have your cock out as soon as you come through the bathroom door? I sure as hell don't. I suspect most folks wait until they're to the urinal first.

The article says that he claimed when he encountered her, he quickly covered up and said he was sorry. That sure as hell sounds like he was walking around a bathroom with his schlong hanging out.

I'm not saying the guy was trying to harass her (I find her story completely disingenuous), but damn, I'm glad I don't work with anybody like him.

The moral here?

1) Using the legal system for your own greed and perjuring yourself carries no negative consequences under the law.

2) Sue-happy lawyers are untouchable. There are no penatlies for losing a case.

3) Since money is the primary reward in civil suits, and the 4 women basically have none (compared to this guy), while they have everything to gain from him, he has nothing to gain in a counter-suit. Maybe he could get them fired, but it would still be a huge effort on his part with not much in terms of reward.

A amsll number of lawyers in America actually perform a necessary function. The rest exist to leech off of the rest of us - and really need to have their liscences revoked. How about... more than 2 suits that fail in a year and you get a 6-month suspension on the practice of law. 3 suspensions in your lifetime and you can never practice law again?

recursive, sorebones

It does make you wonder why someone would be walking around a mens room with their John Thomas hanging out until you stop to think where you heard it. I filthy, rotten, extorting bastard who should be put in jail along with her lawyer, for being complicit in the crime. And after the term is finished they should be returned to the country which they came.

karma's a biatch, aint it chuckles?

And this is karma how exactly?

Found innocent but in an indirect way sentenced to Maine?

/ducking from the people of Maine

say hello to my little friend ....

LOL @ King_shiat,

That would be GREAT if courts would do that.

"Sir you are charged with sexually assaulting a Coke machine, how to you plead?"

Guilty

"I sentence you to 3 months in Newark, New Jersey"

NO NOT NEW JERSEY!!!!!!!

RoguePixie yeah I caught a few girls coming out of the bushes. This was at freakin' LILITH FAIRE though at Lakewood in Atlanta, which holds like 40,000 people. And it had rained, so there was mud, and the girls had totally invaded the men's bathroom to get clean in the sinks as well as use the facilities. There was about an inch of muddy water on the ground because the drains had got clogged (both the ones in the sink and the ones in the floor). I was on my second beer and stopped after that. Too much work aiming and blocking at the same time. I hate going in those public troughs as it is.

"Honestly, guys, how many of you have your cock out as soon as you come through the bathroom door?"

I've unzipped on the way to the urinal when time is of the essence, but never the whip-out until I am there.

/agrees with Cola.

I fail to see how this behavior represents me or any woman I am close to.

See, I could represent the male gender as completely idiotic since Ben Afflec just bought his girly a multi-thousand dollar jewel encrusted toilet seat, but I won't.

That's just one dumb hollywood hunk. These are just four dumb criminal wenches. They have nothing to do with the rest of us, thank you.

Demetrius -- He's a prosecutor. That gives some opportunity for corruption, but not much for frivolity.

Conley's spokesman, David Procopio, defended the office's handling of the case. ''There was alibi evidence that, under the scrutiny of trial, raised serious questions about the remaining charges against him,'' Procopio said. ''But we make no apologies for going forward. The system worked for Mr. Atleson.''

I wonder if he was actually able to say that with a straight face...and I hope he can still agree with it when it happens to him someday. Stupid, stupid farking women; the word of the day is I.N.S., can you spell it for me, kids?

something should be done to women who bear faulse witness

Something should be done to people who can't spell.

Who's gonna be hitting on a Janitor?

First of all, a lady doesn't get a job if she's hot. Hot girls get rich guys to pay their way. Its just the way things are. If you're not hot enough to get a rich guy, at least maybe you're hot enough for an office job.

This maybe a novel concept to you. Women often work because they like the power of their own money. In fact of all my school friends the women who got married early or had to have a serious relationship whereby the could rely on men to support them were more often then not:-

A. Ugly
B. Dumb

The pretty and smart ones know that they can have men, but they don't need them.

"Court papers show that the four women were from El Salvador or the Dominican Republic and none spoke English."

No command of the english language. At all. But they are able to launch a nice lawsuit like that.... unbelieveable!

admit it, this would have been funny if he had been one of those asshat ambulance chasing, tobacco and KFC sueing lawyers.

The guy whipped his weiner out before he even got to the urinal.

"He opened his pants and then ran smack into a shocked female janitor."

Still, being kind of tough on the guy to file sexual assault charges...

Furthermore, "ran smack into a shocked female janitor" sounds like there was contact. Seems like a big coincidencee that he whpis his weiner out upon entry to the bathroom, then some how crashes into the janitor.

I went to a conservative university and we normally had noone of the opposite sex in our dorms. Which was a good thing because we had to share a shower and often walked to the shower in our skivies or less. I mean, this is a guys' dorm, right?

We did, however, have a female janitor (janitress?) of the little old lady variety. Normally she would come in the afternoon when everyone was in class. But every once in a while the crazy old lady would appear at 8 am. In those cases she would inevitably scare/embarrass me or one of my friends on our way to the shower and we would find ourselves APOLOGIZING TO HER. I always thought it was odd that we apologized to her when it was she who was invading our space.

I should note (seeing the homosexiness of the above two paragraphs) that I had wild monkey sex with my fiance every night.

My fiance was a girl.

bigG

from the article:

As a student lawyer in New York, he had successfully represented a Nicaraguan family seeking asylum in the United States and a group of Spanish-speaking doormen who had claimed employment discrimination.

imagine the gall of apartment owners actually wanting their doormen to speak english. must be discrimination.

smells like karma to me

"Love of money is the root of all evil" At least get the quote right. Another quote, from Tim Allen (in his earlier days before he got rich and whipped):

"Yeh, men are pigs (cheers from women in the audience) It's too bad we own everything"

"The pretty and smart ones know that they can have men, but they don't need them."

*Chuckles* Until they hit 35 and the clock starts ticking audibly...Then all bets are off :)

Yes women who accusse men of sexual harrasment, rape etc should be punished. However, I believe that when some-one goes to court they are either proven guilty or not guilty. It says "not guilty" it does not say innocent in other words the person is not found innocent it is just they do not have the evidence to prove they are guilty.

In otherwords you could be punishing alot of women who were sexually harrassed, raped etc but just did not have enough evidence to prove it. Sexual harassment, rape etc are often a 1 on 1 situation with no witnesses and one persons word against anothers.

One explanation as to why his willy may have been exposed immediately upon entering the mens room....what if he had to go really bad and was worried that he wasn't going to make it?? I have been known to remove my belt and unbutton my jeans while waiting in line in the ladies room. Of course, copius amounts of beer are usually involved.

Or maybe he was just proud of it???

Either way cut the guy some slack!

The perps name was Luke Atmadeek

The GREATEST.piss.viewing.EVAR!!!!

Dont ask but I was at a transvestite beauty pageant here on the rock and decided I had to go to the bathroom.....mostly normal....as I am at the urinal a chick steps up unzips the pants, simultaneously whipping out a shoehorn that was used to direct her peepee right into the bowl of the urinal. Then to finish off the greatest piss veiwing evar she shook it off(the shoehorn) and replaced it in her back pocket from whence it came. Come to think of it she didnt wash her hands either....

You'd think that when you apply for a job as a female janitor, they inform you beforehand that one of the hazards of the profession is that you might see some dude's dong when you're cleaning the men's restroom

If there's one place men should be free to whip it out without threat of legal action, it's the freakin bathroom

A lot of people made the point that you don't whip it out till you get there. True, I've never seen someone running to the urinal with their dick flapping in the wind.

So what is this? A rich lawyer using his power to get out of a sexual harrassment suit by claiming its a frivolous lawsuit and only about gender politics.

Also he used the media to sway public opinion. Judging by most of the responses it worked.

This lawyer wasn't on a ski lift in Colorado the week previous, was he?

Those poor janitors -they had a good scam going... If they had picked any mark other than some lawyer -they would be riding the easy train to moneyville.

Sometimes I wish I was born a woman -they have the best scams.

When I first got to Germany, I went to Heidelburg Castle. I went into the restroom to take a piss, it had about 10 urinals there and as I was going, the FEMALE janitor came up and cleaned the urinals to either side of me. There weren't any dividers or anything like that. I was so freaked, but I think I may have splashed a little all over the place. She just kept on cleaning and moved on without missing a beat. I couldn't believe it.

Mmmm...sexism.

You can almost smell the singleness.

Do they ever have male janitors in the women's room? Just wondering.

Peetah

I work in a large metropolitan court system, and I can tell you that recent immigrants are some of the most litigious segments of our society. We throw out more frivilous lawsuits from recent immigrants than from any other group. Many of them are coaxed into it by members of their culture who have lived here longer, and there is a pervasive sense within these groups that lawsuits are the way to achieve the American dream. All it takes is one Somali to net a couple hundred thousand dollars from a moronic jury, and we have a couple hundred new lawsuits filed by Somalis the very next month. There are "law firms" who cater to these people and these "lawsuits" exclusively.

Archfeld, disturbingly enough there are plenty of women these days whose goal is not to have kids. Heh.

I think it's time to leave this thread..
