There's a hilarious post by Sam Kamin on www.prawfs.com about seemingly dirty legal terms that might interest bored lawyers.

This blog is really beginning to suck. Doe anyone advise on a better website for legal gossip that is not amateurish like this one?

Overrated? By whom? All anyone does in the comments is bitch about Lat.

Alternatives to ATL include AutoAdmit.com and the Wall Street Journal's Law Blog.

That's because Lat sucks. He's snobby, ellitest, whinny, catty and sarcastic (but not in a humerous or even clever way - more in that annoying, Queeny way) - his observations are obvious, his "effort" includes cutting a pasting from other sources, stating the obvious, and asking questions of his readers. Wow - how wonderful.

You're right - he does suck - I mean literally. You know he does - real big ones too - so gay - and not butch gay, but Queeny gay. And he must take it too - i mean you know he's a bottom - what else would explain his constant "stick in the ass" syndrom? I mean really, it's sort of sad - what a lonely, miserable life he must lead, being gay and asian, only things to make him feel better seem to be calling every women a diva (sort of of losses its meaning Lat when you use it on everyone - and a bit insulting - to women, and to our intelligence) and making fun over everyone else with oh so clever and original observations. Time to go back to Wachtel, Yale boy - sure they'd welcome you back with open arms and spread butt cheeks.
