Anyone who makes me read a dumb contract owes me $100,000.00 one hundred thousand Untited States dollars. Since I'm feeling generous, I'll take Australian or Canadian dollars too

If that's how it worked all we'd need to do is run one of those installers that forces you to scroll all the way down their EULA.

[–] DrSteveBrule@mander.xyz 10 points 6 days ago (2 children)

Why don't I see sovcits demanding fees of the range of 100s of millions of dollars? If they are going to try and insert these beliefs into reality then why not try to become billionaires along the way?

[–] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 8 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Sometimes they do, here's a snippet from a child protection case in Alberta.

Quadrillion dollars!? That's what I'm talking about!

[–] Worx@lemmynsfw.com 7 points 6 days ago (1 children)

They might be insane, but at least they're not greedy

[–] DrSteveBrule@mander.xyz 4 points 6 days ago

That's actually a nice way to explain their behavior. It's easy to just laugh at them, but reality is kinda fucked up a lot of the times too.

[–] SkunkWorkz@lemmy.world 7 points 6 days ago (1 children)

And who is going to enforce it?

[–] Subverb@lemmy.world 8 points 6 days ago

Well, depending on the violation, various governm... OH, I see what you did there!

[–] some_guy@lemmy.sdf.org 4 points 6 days ago

The third person in this montage is a sovcit who wants $500 to reveal his name. What a deal!

I really don't know how they don't understand the very simple concept that you can't force someone into a contract.

But it was nice of him to not charge a fee to keep people updated, I guess.

When you understand something so well, that you now overstand it, to the point it's taking up too much brain real estate.

But the gubment forced us into a contract of indentured servitude under the social security gold standard emancipation proclamation​!

[–] MelodiousFunk@slrpnk.net 9 points 1 week ago

I was forced into free agent indentured servitude by virtue of being born without capital.

Imagine if the tow truck guy was ALSO a sov cit and he took the contract and did the sovcit magic and signed his name in red ink at a 45 degree angle on this contract lol. Do you think the original guy would be like "hmm OK yup, you got me" or would he double-down?

[–] finley@lemm.ee 55 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I would love to see two sovcits argue about which one of their crazy delusions is the right one, lol

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (2 children)

@BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world, you must have seen examples of this, right? Feel free to share.

[–] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 12 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Here's one where the guy posted he spent a bunch of money learning sovcit tricks, and now is in 20K of debt and been evicted, and these were the replies..

This guy is my fave sovcit. Things have not gone well for him and he's also weirdly insane about cars.

"I assessed my own value for the place I'm renting and I have paid enough so I won't pay anymore, but I'm not sure if this is legal."

Gotcha, pal.

[–] Trigger2_2000@sh.itjust.works 5 points 5 days ago

Our utilities are paid for by sales tax.

And since sovcits don't pay taxes, utilities are just completely free. /s

[–] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 10 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Absolutely I have. Let me find one!

It simply cannot be understated.

[–] mojofrododojo@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago (1 children)

but could it be overstated? or asidestated?

[–] MonkeMischief@lemmy.today 3 points 5 days ago

Possibly! If you could officially instate that, it'd be outstanding!

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 35 points 1 week ago (1 children)

It's legal language. You wouldn't overstand it.

[–] Trigger2_2000@sh.itjust.works 2 points 5 days ago

Oh, he's a bright one.

Won't work, he got the protection spell wrong, there is no "Unitided States."

Rookie mistake. Forgot to say “no comebacks”.

[–] themeatbridge@lemmy.world 28 points 1 week ago
[–] Fades@lemmy.world 26 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (2 children)

Thank god the moron wrote out the number values (.00 cents btw!!!) and then immediately after wrote out the same information but in English. This isn’t a fucking check you dumbfuck, who exactly is getting any value out of doing that?

Maybe you shouldn’t hand write a goddamn “contract” if you’re soooo worried someone might come fudge the numbers you wrote down! Shit, at that point just write out the numbers in English and skip the numerical version altogether. Literally wasting their own time.

How the fuck do you spell "United" incorrectly? The Constitution and the 14th Amendment? Where do they think the Amendments are?

I do love "overstand" though.

[–] AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world 17 points 1 week ago

What if they pay him with one of those coupons they like so much?

[–] MossyFeathers@pawb.social 14 points 1 week ago

I'm now gonna use the word, "overstand" when someone over explains something to the point where they lose me again.

[–] morgan_423@lemmy.world 13 points 1 week ago

Making magical gestures ..."By your performance, we mutually agree to the binding terms of this contract!"

Hogwarts instructor: No, you must abbreviate that, it's much too lengthy, and you'll be counterspelled. Try this instead: "Contractus Bindero!"

[–] apfelwoiSchoppen@lemmy.world 12 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I overstand. I overstand completely.

[–] Limonene@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago (2 children)

I wonder if part of the magic is being hand-written. Would it not work as well if it was typed? Does it matter what color ink or what type of paper you use? Or am I totally on the wrong track, and this person just prefers writing over typing?

Either way, I find it incredibly tragic. Seems like their car was involuntarily towed, which is already a bad situation, and this is going to make things worse. At best, it will cause delays.

[–] Canadian_anarchist@lemmy.ca 3 points 6 days ago

Unlike other sovcit chicken scratch, this person's writing is actually legible.

[–] humorlessrepost@lemmy.world 9 points 1 week ago

The angled writing is almost certainly part of the magic, since they think is is for signatures.
