My mom never registered to vote "because I don't want to be picked for jury duty!" (stupid boomer face)

WTF?! In some states, your registered for jury duty when you get a driver's license...

[–] jordanlund@lemmy.world 29 points 3 months ago

That's what I told her!

[–] njm1314@lemmy.world 10 points 3 months ago

Wow so she was a bad citizen in two ways.

Jury duty wasn't fun (child abuse case), but it was one hell of an education. I'm still greatful to have had such smart fellow jurors so we could really consider everything. You get to see how the world works.

I maliciously complied with Jury Duty. I went. I sat in the room 8 hours a day for a week reading a conspicuously large copy of "Atlas Shrugged".

Weird, they didn't pick me... :)
