Peer pong

A pejorative term for trial by a jury, especially in civil cases. It flows from the notion that jurors are so unpredictable and so subject to changes in their thinking during trial and deliberations -- based on emotions, personal experience, misunderstanding the evidence, lack of attention to the instructions they are given, or occasionally dozing off or daydreaming -- that there is no rational way of predicting which side they will ultimately favor.
Oliver: So I heard you decided to waive the jury and try that copyright case to the judge.

Felix: Yeah, that case has so many documents and celebrities and whatnot it would be like OJ Simpson suing Donald Trump for securities fraud – who needs to play peer pong with something like that? I think the judge will get it.

Oliver: Word. Gotta give the Brits credit, over there you get a jury only in a libel case.
