Over the course of the last weeks the Supreme Court of Assholedom has considered several pressing cases, and the deliberations have been fierce. Responding among other things to popular demand that the Court consider routine behaviors as well as the characters of major public figures, we delved into a few routine matters intended to provide guidance to the difficult question of how all of us can avoid being assholes in our daily lives.

This article was hilarious, I loved the the format and the judges were all great folk. Disappointing was the lin about Rahm being one of “our” assholes. I love how we just let them get away with it all the time.
