Sane as a judge

If you say that someone is as sane as a judge, you are saying that he/she is in good mental health and can think and behave very rationally. This idiom comes from the fact that judges decide who is either sane or insane in a court.

Son who thinks he's insane when he's not: Dad, considering my mental health issues, do you think I'm insane? I'm kind of worried.

Dad: That's not true, my son. I wholeheartedly believe you're as sane as a judge.

Hungry Judge Phenomenon

That sounds like a pretty substantial miscarriage of justice if that is the case.

Hym "BUT Hungry Judge Phenomenon doesn't occur 100% of the time does it? And reminding them of their mortality has the same effect? So it isn't 'predetermined' it just 'largely affected by' which, again, means determinism wrong and dumb. I mean it sounds like we should mandate snacks for judges and convince everyone they're immortal."

Judges

The people who decide who wins and who loses.

Hym "I have never had a problem with meritocratic victory or defeat. My position is actually perfectly analogous to Joe's position on judges. The judges are getting paid to decide to wins and who loses. They are the ones who choose the winner. Joe is not. What justification does Joe have to protest the judges decision? Joe must be full of shit because the people who decide who wins and who loses say that he's wrong. Is he wrong to call for them to be replaced with those who will make a fair judgement?"

Judge

A short arrogant asshole who constantly makes perverted jokes and quickly gathers a troupe of theater nerd and computer geek friends. Although endearing, shallow girls pass him by, while the ones that are hard to catch take notice. often plays their music too loud.

Man, Judge is a total asshole.
I know, right?
