That's amazing! How did you come up with such a clever idea?

Seriously, is that a picture frame with a poster-sized printout or what? It looks great.

Thanks! Yeah, I bought a poster frame at Goodwill for 5$. And I had each zoom frame printed at Kinkos as an 11"x17" print (it was way cheaper than having one poster sized print made).

You crazy son of a bitch you did it.

I'm OP's sister and she called me last week looking for costume ideas. For some reason this popped to mind immediately. I was imagining something much less elaborate like some face paint whiskers and cat ears, but (as usual) she knocked it out of the park. I wonder if she's still got a picture of when my niece wanted to be a zombie armadillo one Halloween.

Haha a friend of mine made an amazing costume a few years back. She was going to a roller rink for a Halloween party and went as a dung beetle. She made a giant ball of dung that she rolled out in front of her while on the skating rink. One of my favorites.

Great costume!

I wonder if anyone got in trouble for recording 😂

Crotchless_Panties t1_iuhri62 wrote

Also came here to ask this.

Why is it even legal for them to impose that restriction on anyone?! -They are for absolute certain, recording every second of this!

How is it that they think no one else should?!

Is it to make money on transcripts or something?!

mingus-dew t1_iuht6nb wrote

Hmm, perhaps it's to regulate and manage where the recordings are stored. If they're on random laptops that could be compromised/hacked/stolen the fallout from that could be really bad.

Maybe the recordings are still available to be accessed etc with the right permission.

That video was one of my favorite things to see during the shitwave of COVID.

That's awesome! Did you have to carry that frame with you everywhere you went though?

It sucks that cat lawyer got milkshake duck’d but the video is still hilarious and this costume is amazing

What cracks me up is the look on the cat's face with his darting eyes moving back and forth when he is apologizing makes it appear like he is about to cry.

It just made it worse...... and funnier at the same time.

I mean, I'm just some random person speculating on the internet. I have no idea why that's their policy. But would you trust a lawyer who can't turn off a kitten face filter with securing a video recording of your court hearing on their home computer? Or would you be worried if your opponent in court was allowed to have a recording of your case and any of your testimony?

Greenwing OP t1_iui20f1 wrote

I wore the costume to two Halloween parties over the weekend. I didn't keep the head on very long or carry the frame all night. I did have face painted whiskers, a cat nose, and a cat ears headband though.

blacktothebird t1_iui3k83 wrote

it's funny with the screen and without.

Cause without it people would ask what are you some kind of cat? and you can reply that you are lawyer and this is just a filter.

Crotchless_Panties t1_iui9xbs wrote

You make valid points, but I was viewing this from the perspective that they were going to say stuff that they didn't want you to record, because it could be used against them later.

I worked for FedEx once, and they did that shit constantly!

Uhhh judge.

Seriously this is a great costume. Well done

But this is a public court with an ostensibly neutral judge with counsel from both plantiff and defendant... Who is "they"?

I felt so bad for that guy. Judge was a stickler for decorum.

My Zoom gets confused sometimes when I switch between the pro account my employer uses to host meetings and my personal one. Even if I log in with my personal credentials, it occasionally shows the business name on my profile: Buttfuckers 'R' Us. It really could happen to anyone.

You'd be surprised how often abuser and victim show up in court together. Even in cases with CPS where one is accused of crimes against a child the other parent will show up in court with the abuser

Not that there's anything wrong with it!

pumaofshadow t1_iujwkvv wrote

It's to stop leaks of information usually I'd think. If you consider that it might include witness info, details specific to the case that aren't publically known, specific documents that might not be for the public (income statements,contracts, patents...). I dunno what court he was in at the time but it's all reasons why you'd not want a random copy out there to get hacked, stolen or copied deliberately by less than wonderful people.
