Cabin Crusting

Definition: The revolting act of leaving behind a dried, biological or food-based residue on an aircraft seat, tray table, or seatback pocket, creating a biohazardous or deeply unsanitary mess for the cleaning crew. Think melted ice cream sludge, bodily fluids,…

Self-Own

Definition: The spectacular act of a defendant or witness unintentionally delivering irrefutable proof of their own guilt or incompetence through sheer stupidity or arrogance during legal proceedings. A courtroom implosion so severe it makes their lawyer visibly cringe and the…

Gavelblow

Definition: That soul-crushing moment when your client, defendant, or witness opens their mouth in a legal setting and delivers a statement so catastrophically self-incriminating or factually annihilating that you instantly know the case is irrevocably lost. It’s the audible thud…

Shallow Gambit
