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?

Gotta call 1-800-CASH-NOW.

Infinite money hack discovered

[-] [email protected] 20 points 2 months ago

That'd be difficult to collect.

[-] [email protected] 27 points 2 months ago

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

[-] [email protected] 6 points 2 months ago

Brilliant.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

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)

[-] [email protected] 11 points 2 months 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.

Who served God papers?

[-] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

He's omnipresent and omniscient so as soon as the papers came out of the printer, God had been served. If we consider the fact that he knows the future as well, we could argue that he had been served even before he created man.

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

[-] [email protected] 7 points 2 months ago

Yeah, in Superman Returns. With Kevin Spacey.

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

[-] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

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.

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.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago

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.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

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

[-] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

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