Writ

Suggests a sell out. Refers to someone who doesn’t read paperwork for a Writ Of Habeus Corpus. Just signs shit without knowing what the fuck is going to happen.

Damn I’m stuck in the psych ward for another 14 days. Shoulda read the paper work when it pretty much says you automatically lose the court hearing if you sign a Writ Of Habeus Corpus. I feel like a writ.

writ large

in a very significant or far-reaching manner; of great magnitude and effectiveness

"Never mind the Stratford Festival, the Royal Winnipeg Ballet, or the Montreal Symphony!
Hockey Night in Canada was Canadian culture writ large."

writ of douchebaggery

A license to behave like a douchebag. Notable holders include President George W. Bush and Attorney General John Ashcroft.

Ashcroft's prosecuting people for medicinal marijuana use? He must have invoked his writ of douchebaggery.

writ of douchebaggery

The fictional statute that allows government officials to withhold information on the grounds of being a douchebag. Coined by the Daily Show's Jon Stewart.

"Dude, I'm no lawyer, but you have to invoke *something*. Fifth amendment, executive privilege, writ of douchebaggery?" ~Jon Stewart

Writ of Douchebaggery

As mentioned on "The Daily Show with John Stewart."

An imaginary document that gives one the right to be a Douchebag without harmful consequences. However it must be invoked or the individual who fails to invoke it can and will be subjected to harsh punishment from those offended. Without the invocation of the Writ, the Douchebag holds no rights, and no protective measures will be taken to prevent harm to their genitals.

Due to the fact that Doug had failed to invoke the Writ of Douchebaggery before Donkey Punching his girlfriend, he woke up in the middle of the night to find his testicals in a vice.
