Legal sbemail

Dear Strongbad, Alex,

Now that you’re 5/6ths of a lawyer, I was wondering if you’ve ever written a law casebook, what it was about, and what kind of laws did you try to teach the kids.

Your fan,
Steve Buttz

Sure I've written a casebook. Who hasn't? I mean, law students can barely read as it is, so how hard can it be to write for them? The casebook I wrote is called

Commentaries and Cases of the Law of Business Organization.

Commentaries and Cases on the Law of Business Organizations
No two corporations are the same.


Some people are about to be run over by a frolicking or detouring employee.
Frankie has about 5 seconds.


Some people are very tall and merciless.
Quincy is making a tender offer.


Some people set up LLCs.
Beth looks like a dude.


Some corporations are subject to Revlon duties.
Gregor is a weird name.


Some people have a duty of loyalty.
Some people have a duty of care.
Fran could play linebackers for the Raiders.


Some people have rigged the corporation with a poison pill.
Albert has.


Some people have shell corporations, and those are hot.
Trisha is a severe hottie.


Some people are being fangoriously devoured by a hostile takeover.
Hillary's assets are being digested.


Every corporation is different.
No two shareholders are not on fire.
Awwwww.

So there’s my casebook. Pretty good, eh Steve? And the laws we taught the kids were duties of loyalty, the law of agency, and um, linebacker. You know, education at its finest. Well some people need to go and get a life. Alex needs to go and get a life.

NOTE: If you are totally lost, go watch this, then come back. And if you still don't think this post was funny, well, I don't care. You write a humorous post, NERD.


Special thanks to Honor for inspiring for this post.

That is the funniest thing I have read in quite some time. That may be the blog post of the year.

This just proves to Derek that it can be done. This sounds like a challenge, now that Derek doesn't have to worry about pesky law school getting in the way for the next few weeks.

Bravo. That seems like it was an investment of time and mind power, two things I dread investing these days. But I don't think it's fair that you get to work with a last name like "Ho;" it just puts you a league above everyone else who even attempts to be funny.
