Given all the rah rah rah for morality that I've seen lately, I figure the topic should be broached.

To me, it doesn't makes a difference and that's what's taken me so long to get to it. If kids want to drink, they're going to find a way to get to what they want. Not to mention, I hardly hold the monopoly on alcohol. [ he's getting to his point in a very roundabout way, yes. ] I'd also like to say that there isn't a day that goes by that I don't see at least one person drinking on camera, drunk texting or boasting about their inebriated state in some manner or another. More often than not, they're what I'd consider underage. And I'm not inclined to give much of a shit about where the product is going because I'm not profiting from it specifically in monetary value.

We don't have a set legal system. Each of us are from countries or worlds where the age cap varies or is completely irrelevant.

That being said, my point is: should there be an age restriction on those I knowingly permit into [ hm, no he's not going to say my ] an establishment where drinking and partying could lead to one thing and then another? I've seen an awful lot of preaching about save the children. God forbid we overlook their sweet, virgin eyes. If we're going to be stuck together for an indefinite amount of time, this might as well be addressed to [ huh, okay, what word does he want to use with you assholes? ] keep the peace. Or something like it. So, let's have it.

Don't care, couldn't be made to care or alternatively, open it to discussion. [ he's bored enough to let strangers and friends bicker at him and among each other. ] And if you were hired by myself or my [ other half ] business partner, report.

[ the camera angle lowers like he's done or ready to shut it off, instead he's scratching behind his ear and shifting his jaw to begrudgingly announce: ] Oh, and by the way, for those of you that knew him.. I think it's safe to finally assume that Justin Taylor has gone home. [ or wherever the fuck people who aren't dead but simply gone go, he doesn't say but his condescending and bitter fucking uncomfortable smirk implies. ]

I don't see a fuckin' point in that. [Says one of said underage kids who was drinking cough cough]

If people're from all kinds of worlds and realities an' shit, who's to say which world's ideas are the best for deciding on that crap?
jurisimpudent: (contemptuous)

[personal profile] jurisimpudent 2012-08-31 04:59 am (UTC)(link)
Right.

How old are you?
player_not_slayer: (got my attention)

[voice]

[personal profile] player_not_slayer 2012-08-31 05:08 am (UTC)(link)
Seventeen, so what? I'm sure now you're gonna say that of course I don't see a point because I'm one of those kids that just wants an excuse to get away with that shit, right?
jurisimpudent: (irritable)

[voice]

[personal profile] jurisimpudent 2012-08-31 05:16 am (UTC)(link)
No. What I am going to ask is whether or not you have reached physical maturity.
player_not_slayer: (What the fuck just happened)

[voice]

[personal profile] player_not_slayer 2012-08-31 05:32 am (UTC)(link)
Huh. [He's just going to...bite back his first response to that, which was that he was mature enough for Edgeworth's mom last night, because Kable's been trying to beat a sense of consequence into him lately.]

Fuck if I know. There's a number for that?
jurisimpudent: (neutral)

[voice]

[personal profile] jurisimpudent 2012-08-31 05:34 am (UTC)(link)
Not an exact one. It typically happens in one's twenties. The brain finishes developing by the age of twenty-five on the low side.
player_not_slayer: (not impressed)

[voice]

[personal profile] player_not_slayer 2012-08-31 05:37 am (UTC)(link)
So it was a trick question, since I already told you my age, dude.
jurisimpudent: (irritable)

[voice]

[personal profile] jurisimpudent 2012-08-31 05:39 am (UTC)(link)
I was simply seeing whether or not you knew.
player_not_slayer: (Flipping through thoughts)

[voice]

[personal profile] player_not_slayer 2012-08-31 05:43 am (UTC)(link)
Didn't know, don't care, and not seeing a tit-flipping point about why I should.

Kinda off topic from the original discussion, man.
jurisimpudent: (put out)

[voice]

[personal profile] jurisimpudent 2012-08-31 05:49 am (UTC)(link)
...The level of information you bring to a discussion of this ilk is in no way irrelevant, but very well. Do you know what alcohol does to a still-developing mind?
player_not_slayer: (you don't say)

[voice]

[personal profile] player_not_slayer 2012-08-31 05:52 am (UTC)(link)
Numbs it against the fucking nightmare fuel that is being stuck in this place?
jurisimpudent: (stressed)

[voice]

[personal profile] jurisimpudent 2012-08-31 05:53 am (UTC)(link)
Certainly it does not do that, no.
player_not_slayer: (Any kind of nut butter)

[voice]

[personal profile] player_not_slayer 2012-08-31 05:54 am (UTC)(link)
Really now. What'll work for that then? Weed? I can go for that too.
jurisimpudent: (stressed)

[voice]

[personal profile] jurisimpudent 2012-08-31 05:58 am (UTC)(link)
No; that will not work either.
player_not_slayer: (Smirkity)

[voice]

[personal profile] player_not_slayer 2012-08-31 06:02 am (UTC)(link)
Let me guess. You've never tried either, so you don't actually know.
jurisimpudent: (stressed)

[voice]

[personal profile] jurisimpudent 2012-08-31 06:03 am (UTC)(link)
...Not relevant. I have read about the subject.
player_not_slayer: (Oh really?)

[voice]

[personal profile] player_not_slayer 2012-08-31 06:05 am (UTC)(link)
Totally relevant. Can't knock it till you've tried it, dude.
jurisimpudent: (contemptuous)

[voice]

[personal profile] jurisimpudent 2012-08-31 06:07 am (UTC)(link)
No, I believe I can.

player_not_slayer: (I'm a badass motherfucker)

[voice]

[personal profile] player_not_slayer 2012-08-31 06:14 am (UTC)(link)
Man. You haven't even tried alcohol?

Your life must suck.
jurisimpudent: (stressed)

[voice]

[personal profile] jurisimpudent 2012-08-31 06:16 am (UTC)(link)
[He frowns. How much it sucks is completely separate from his use of drugs and alcohol.]

As it is not legal for me to drink, I abstain, yes. I find it does not impact my quality of life in the least.
player_not_slayer: (What you say?)

[voice]

[personal profile] player_not_slayer 2012-08-31 06:20 am (UTC)(link)
[Hold the phone. What do you mean, not legal to drink? Either Edgeworth just looks like an old(er) fart due to the huge tree up his ass, or his world is completely balls about recreational fun.]

...How the fuck old are you.
jurisimpudent: (contemptuous)

[voice]

[personal profile] jurisimpudent 2012-08-31 06:21 am (UTC)(link)
[He frowns deeper.]

I'm twenty years old.
player_not_slayer: (got my attention)

[voice]

[personal profile] player_not_slayer 2012-08-31 06:23 am (UTC)(link)
[Complete. disbelief.]

You are totally bullshitting me right now.
jurisimpudent: (put out)

[voice]

[personal profile] jurisimpudent 2012-08-31 06:30 am (UTC)(link)
...Believe me, if I were lying, it would not be in such a way as to make me seem less formidable. I caution you not to allow yourself to underestimate me as a result of my age.
player_not_slayer: (I might have an idea)

[voice]

[personal profile] player_not_slayer 2012-08-31 06:48 am (UTC)(link)
[Who said anything about underestimating him?

Oh. oh. He gets it.]


No wonder you're such a dickmonger. You're totally insecure about your age. It's kinda sad, dude.
