Contempt of Cunt

Noun: The passionless crime of neglecting one's vagina. The result is an unkept, fetid, malodorous vagina that is surrounded by tangled mange, often dotted with open oozing sores, and in serious need of douching.
Keyless "That escort had one of the most putrid and polluted pussies I've ever been in the same room with."

Josh "It looked like a scruffy sheep dog mutt trying to stick it's slobbering tongue out. It smelled like Phil Margera's briefs after a 5k in a hot suit, 2 sharts, and a month spent in an abortion clinic's medical waste container that has been sitting out in the 115 degree heat index."

Keyless "If that doesn't constitute a Contempt of Cunt charge, then I don't know what the hell does."

contempt of court

What any decent person feels having discovered the difference between the public image of British Justice and the practical reality: huge costs; incompetent lawyers who still use photocopiers instead of electronic documents, complete disregard by the judge for prima facie cases of perjury, contempt of court (in one of the other senses), evidence tampering, and witness tampering, and the circular, self-supporting ramblings of the judgement.
Judge: You are in contempt of court, Mr Smith.
Mr Smith: Yes, I am. I am surprised you noticed. You don't seem to have noticed anything else.
