Yep, it is snarky and packed with great one liners but one of my favorites is on pg. 1, &quot; because Plaintiffs&#x27; delicate sensibilities were offended, they clutched their pearls and filed this suit.&quot;<p>The &quot;you can&#x27;t sue people for being mean to you, Bob&quot; sums up the brief. This is evidence that not all legal briefs are dry.

Pg 7. &quot;truth is an absolute defense to a claim of defamation&quot; proceeded by a picture of a side by side comparison between Dr Evil and Bob.<p>Hilarious.
