So I have jury duty tomorrow, and I am not allowed to bring a phone (or my Gameboy Advanced (I called ahead)) into the courthouse. How can I occupy myself when I have to sit in the waiting room for hours?

when they ask you take your hand out of your pants, put it on their shoulder and explain that you have some kind of itchy rash on your dick

before you get out of your car dip your left hand in a jar of peanut butter. try to get all the peanut butter off using only your right hand without getting your right hand dirty.

I got a jury summons back when I was like 19 (I'm 30 now) and I just threw it away because I had a vacation planned for the time they wanted me. They sent me another notice a couple months later in scary red lettering saying that I would go to jail if I didn't respond to this one but I threw that one away too and they just stopped sending them after that. My friends tell me there's probably an arrest warrant out for me but I've gotten like 3 speeding tickets since then and nothing ever happened.

You can't be using it in the court room but you'll be fine as long as you don't cause a disruption while waiting.

I had jury duty this morning, they let me keep my phone and tablet to take pictures of other fat jurors in the waiting room. There was also coffee and tea. And lots of magazines.

I got called in for jury duty once and I actually went to the courthouse, but I couldn't figure out were I was supposed to go so I said gently caress it and went home. Never got called in again!

protip - when you go there and they screen you, start talking about how drug charges are bullshit, prisons are overpopulated, black men are overrepresented in incarceration rates, the prison-industrial complex is ridiculous, etc, and then you won't have jury duty anymore

alternatively, truthfully say that you think the police are more likely to lie about [insert case that affects their arrest rates/pay/OT] because they are the police and it's your job. this doesn't always work, but should keep you out of some abomination of a murder case.

The key to surviving jury duty is simply not going, telling your boss you are, and having a freebie day off.

If you want to get out of Jury Duty just say you can't wait to get another minority thrown in jail.
