Maybe **Bozuit** can use it for [this](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=730415&highlight=snot+cake).

I was feeling sorry for myself that I had no shoes,  
until I met a man with no feet.

Damn Metric.

Once on a road trip in college, we drove way out of our way just to go [here](http://img.fark.net/images/cache/850/D/Du/fark_Du3OCMk13ZxNjehXB4FkNmbfppI.jpg?t=wtYbbv1NOXw2__yhlgYAnw&f=1408334400)

So we could take our pictures next to this [sign](http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-hvhzc47VVh4/UY7lcrC_vtI/AAAAAAAAEQA/x7wEqMQzcoc/s1600/IMG_0526.JPG)

I stayed at the Walnut Astoria once. It wasn’t as luxurious as I expected…kind of seedy, actually.

The prosecutor steps forward to cross-examine the defendant: “_According to the police report, the victim first received a blow to the side of the head_…” (ickiness — )_with the pick-end of the fire ax previously presented as exhibit four. At least twelve to fifteen additional blows were then delivered about the chest, neck and head. These were followed by some 40 to 60 strokes with the blade of the ax, leaving the victim’s body hacked, bloody and partially dismembered. The coroner has determined that the first blow was not immediately fatal, and the victim may have been pleading for mercy during the brutal assault._" The prosecutor looks at the defendant.  
﻿  
﻿The defendant looks nervously around the courtroom, at last fixing his gaze on the jury box, “_I hadn’t had my coffee yet_.”  
﻿  
﻿The judge groans as prosecutor throws up his hands, the papers he was holding go flying. The gavel comes down so hard the disk bounces up and spins slowly to a rest. The judge turns to the defendant, ''_Why did you not mention this earlier? I am fining you $7000 for contempt, for wasting the court’s valuable time. As to the question of murder, case dismissed._"
