History SophisticatedAsHell / RealLife

* Ask a practicing lawyer how exactly he or she described what their client was doing to a Magistrate or Judge when their client was doing something publicly humiliating, stupid, or naked (or all three).
* ''Bailey v. Mathers'' is a 2003 defamation case in which the infamously vulgar rapper Music/{{Eminem}} was sued for defamation by [=DeAngelo=] Bailey, his former school bully, for writing a song [[VeryLooselyBasedOnATrueStory Very Loosely Based On]] the abuse he faced. The [[https://www.thesmokinggun.com/file/judge-raps-eminem-accuser document]] is written as one would expect, but [[https://www.thesmokinggun.com/file/judge-raps-eminem-accuser?page=12 at the end]] contains an attempt to describe the ruling in "a universally understandable format", which turns out to be rap-like rhyming verse. This has led to the case becoming popular in law schools, where students (usually drunk and/or high) will attempt to perform the rap.

* Arnold Schwarzenegger [[http://techcrunch.com/2009/10/28/schwarzenegger-gives-california-legislature-a-hidden-finger/ here]], in which he politely informs California State Legislature that they are idiots. Oh, and the [[StealthInsult first letter of each line reads 'FUCK YOU']].

* James Franco. Not how he speaks but his interests. He's a writer and is into classic literature, art, and movies. He isn't called a Renaissance man for nothing. This makes it a little weird knowing he's done movies filled with toilet humor and is good friends with Seth Rogen. Also, he got Gucci to sponsor his film ''Dicknose in Paris'' [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin which is exactly what it sounds like]]. This project seems to itself qualify for this trope.
* [[http://www3.state.id.us/oasis/2005/HCR029.html This]] House Concurrent Resolution (no. 29) put forth by the Idaho State Legislature, commending Jared and Jerusha Hess for the writing and production of ''Film/NapoleonDynamite''. The turning point comes long about page 2, line 4, though one should at least start with line 2 on the same page: "Whereas, any members of the House of Representatives or the Senate of the Legislature of the State of Idaho who choose to vote 'Nay' on this concurrent resolution are freakin' idiots and run the risk of having the worst day of their lives." It was passed 69-0, one member absent, by a voice vote.
* In 1970, newly-elected Alabama State Attorney General Bill Baxley re-opened Birmingham's 16th Street Church bombing case (the basis for Spike Lee's ''Film/FourLittleGirls'' and a turning point in the American Civil Rights movement). Over the years that followed, he received threatening letters from the state's still-powerful Ku Klux Klan chapter, including one from Klansman Dr. Edward R. Fields comparing him unfavorably to Robert Kennedy and implying that he might soon meet a similar fate to Kennedy. The full text of Baxley's response to Fields' letter, on official state letterhead:

* Some correspondence during the Battle of the Bulge of WWII as described in Stephen E. Ambrose's "Band of Brothers," and recounted in [[http://www.thedropzone.org/europe/Bulge/Kinnard.html a later interview]] with Lt. General Henry Kinnard, then a Lt. Colonel serving on the 101st Airborne Division staff at the time.

* UsefulNotes/BarackObama's speaking style is practically built on this. The man can switch from talking like the Harvard-educated master orator that he is to down-homey simplicity so fast it gives English majors whiplash. From the 2008 Alfred E. Smith charity event: "If I had to name my greatest strength, it would be my humility. My greatest weakness: it's possible that I'm a little too awesome."

* Many university students display this. It may come from the double nature of the college years: one side, the university teaches you an academic manner of speaking, introduces you to general culture, and gives you an advanced education which probably involves a large amount of technical lingo. On the other side, students are all young adults in the modern world, who witness an ever-increasing amount of vulgar pop culture. As a result, a discussion between two students can move from quoting Plato and Hemingway to extreme profanity in a heartbeat.

* In ''The Unknown Creator/MarxBrothers'', a cooperative real-life example of this pops up when Dick Cavett relates an anecdote (and it definitely helps to hear him [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WShrUVJIclU tell this in his calm, mannered delivery]]) about Chico Marx being a notorious womanizer and a crude one at that. He is to meet Tallulah Bankhead, "a great aristocratic beauty", at a fancy party of some sort, and everyone's worried about Chico making an embarrassing pass at her and causing a scene. He promises he'll behave. The day comes, he meets her, they converse pleasantly, and everyone breathes a sigh of relief. Chico then tells Tallulah "You know, I'd really like to fuck you." She replies, "And so you shall, you old-fashioned boy." [[note]] By the way - TheyDid. [[/note]] Cue Cavett's interviewers cracking up.

* According to Website/TheOtherWiki, even respected scholars refer to the tendency of semi-anonymous members of online communities to act more vulgarly and aggressively towards each other as the "[[ForumSpeak Greater Internet Fuckwad Theory]]". In addition to potentially being a misapplication of the word "Theory," the vocal dissonance is fucking hilarious. (The polite name for this phenomenon is the "online disinhibition effect".)
* Kevin Rudd, Australia's former PM (07-2'10), is guilty of this. Whilst explaining his reasoning behind the Government's latest actions with regard to the financial crisis, he broke his normal SpockSpeak and actually said there'd be a "political shitstorm" in response to his plans. On national television, uncensored. The real kicker? The opposition parties actually accused him of employing this very trope so as to improve his polling amongst the workers. May also be a PrecisionFStrike.

* {{Creator/George Takei}} has this policy when it comes to homophobia and anti-gay sentiments in the media. Remember, it's ok to be Takei.

* In ''Dirty Jokes and Beer'', Drew Carey cites a number of examples of this, including "Please note the excessive use of 'hell' and 'damn' found on pages 4, 20, 21, 22, 28, 38, 40, and 52, and reduce this number by half."

* According to Website/TheOtherWiki, freshmen members of the Texas A&M Corps of Cadets (known as fish) are required to answer any questions asked of them by upperclassmen with certain prescribed answers. If the freshman doesn't know the answer to the question, the required answer is as follows (spoken very rapidly):

* Creator/RogerEbert uses this from time to time in his film criticism. A famous example:
-->"Speaking in my official capacity as a Pulitzer Prize winner, Mr. Schneider, your movie sucks."

-->'''Vidal:''' As far as I'm concerned the only sort of... [[GodwinsLaw pro... crypto-Nazi]] I can think of is yourself. Failing that-\\
'''Buckley:''' Now listen you queer (pronounced quee-ah), stop calling me a crypto-Nazi, or I'll sock you in the goddamn face, and you'll stay plastered. Tell the author of Myra Brack-Breckenridge to go back to his pornography and stop making any allusions of Nazism to somebody who was in the infantry in the last war. (At this point, he's leaning out over his seat and shouting)

* Website/FourChan's moot in a direct examination for the UsefulNotes/SarahPalin email-hacking trial [[http://www.scribd.com/doc/35688046/Christopher-Moot-Poole-Testimony-in-Palin-Email-Trial explains several terms of /b/tardese at the prompting of Assistant United States Attorney Krotoski]].

---> Here’s what this case boils down to: Officers had a hunch that a drug transaction was going down. They saw nothing obviously suspicious but got tired of waiting, watching and wiretapping. They then jumped the gun by executing a warrantless search. Until today, this was not enough to support probable cause, but going forward it will be. This is a green light for the police to search anyone’s property based on what officers subjectively believe—or claim to believe—about someone’s everyday conduct. That puts all of us at risk. Accordingly, I dissent, and I’m off to Costco to buy some food.

* A common occurrence in many military services is for duty to require an NCO [[note]]Typically a [[UsefulNotes/CommonRanks Warrant Officer]][[/note]] to deliver a verbal rebuke to a high ranking officer. This typically consists of exactly the same rebuke he would deliver to anyone else, but [[WithDueRespect with recognition of the recipient's status]].

* Sultan Mehmed IV once sent a StronglyWordedLetter to the Zaporozhian Cossacks, demanding they lay down their weapons and surrender. The [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reply_of_the_Zaporozhian_Cossacks Reply of the Zaporozhian Cossacks]] to Sultan Mehmed IV is a magnificent display of FloweryInsults and elaborate, crude puns on the Sultan's various titles that ends with "kiss our arse".

* In the libel case of ''Arkell v. Pressdram'' (Pressdram being the company that publishes ''Magazine/PrivateEye''), the lawyers for Arkell (an obviously-corrupt local politician) sent ''Private Eye'' a letter informing the Eye that "Our client's attitude to damages will depend on the nature of your reply." Pressdram, thinking that this was a bit rich given that (for once) the ''Eye'' was likely able to prove its case at trial, sent a letter back which read "We would be interested to know what your client's attitude to damages would be if the nature of our reply were as follows: Fuck off". Ever since then, ''Arkell v. Pressdram'' has become a RunningGag for ''Private Eye''; anyone who presses what Pressdram regards as a baseless lawsuit gets the reply, "We refer you to the reply given in the case of ''Arkell v. Pressdram''."

--> [several lines later] In this case, the phrase "Director of Butt Licking" is no more than "rhetorical hyperbole." The phrase is disgusting, offensive, and in extremely bad taste, but it cannot reasonably be understood as stating an actual fact about Yeagle's job title or her conduct, or that she committed a crime of moral turpitude.
* Alex Kozinski, a Judge on the US Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, is famous for lacing his opinions with this trope. The most famous came in the 2002 case ''Mattel, Inc. v. MCA Records, Inc.'', 296 F.3d 894 (9th Cir. 2002), arising over Mattel's accusation that Music/{{Aqua}}'s song "Barbie Girl" turned {{Franchise/Barbie}} into a sex object. Kozinski's opinion began as follows:

* Similar to the ''Series/LawAndOrder'' example in the Live-Action TV subpage, when {{Moral Guardian|s}} Jack Thompson sued 2 Live Crew in the 80s, part of his prosecution included reading the group's lyrics to jury members... who then asked if it was all right to laugh during the trial. Needless to say, Jackie Boy didn't win this one.

* In law, the term "StatuteOfLimitations" conveniently abbreviates to "SOL." Thus lawyers (in America at least) are wont to say that when the statute of limitations has run on an action, the potential plaintiff is "SOL('d)": that is, "shit outta luck."

-->'''Decision:''' ...[the defendant's statement] is a dumb, at best mediocrely funny quip that should not be attributed with any deeper meaning or attention. It is a statement that a police officer and likewise [the plaintiff] should, [[DeadpanSnarker unless he can think of a quick-witted retort]], ignore. In any case, the Prosecution sees no reason to charge such ''Schmarrn''.[[note]]''Schmarrn'' means, freely translated, "bullcrap". And it doesn't become directly apparent from the text if the court's referring to the defendant's words or the policeman's case[[/note]]

* Computer Scientists; their entire [[http://www.catb.org/jargon jargon]] is based on this kind of thing. The result of an "infinite recursion causing total memory allocation," for instance, may be that your system will proceed to "barf."
* Anyone who knows a smidgeon of Latin can pick up on the fact that early anatomists must have been using this kind of humor when they named so many bodily features "mastoid", which means "boob" — well, “breastlike”.
