"When did you stop beating your wife?"

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago

Completely off-topic but I recall a lawyers TV show back in the day where the response to this joke was something like:

"About at the same time you stopped beating yours"

Which would have been interesting to see how that would have worked at the court. Can't remember the show alas, but it was probably The Practice (a late 90s show I think, predecessor to Boston Legal).
