Post memes here.
A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

For those seriously wondering, yes, in the U.S justice system, many celebrities have been on jury duty, as well as several politicians. Unfortunately, fictional characters aren’t typically allowed jury duty, meaning that you’ll never get a Quintesson to give you “Innocent” before throwing you into a vat of Sharkticons.
I think Obama went to Jury Duty, post presidency.
But it was pretty much a formality lmao cause there was no way in hell he'd ever be selected. Pretty much turned it into a press piece.
Are there anyone who's exempt from jury duty, for example because of their profession?
Would it be possible to have Judge Judy sitting in a jury?
In my jurisdiction the only ones formally exempted from jury duty are those who are employed in the courtrooms: judges, bailiffs, and court reporters.
There are several other occupations that, while not formally exempt, are almost guaranteed to result in you not being picked: law enforcement, child protective services, district attorney office, criminal defense attorney.
Hell, both times I was actually asked to come in, they dismissed me just for having friends who were cops.
But you could still be asked to serve if the case was civil and did not involve cops. There are many reasons you can be dismissed, but it varies wildly from one case to the next.
I got the jury duty notice once when I was like 19, promptly forgot about it, and haven't heard anything since. This was about 15 years ago.
You know, I'm something of a Judge myself.
But I have William DaFriend.
Yes. Even the president can get summoned but it's unlikely either legal camps would want that much attention on their case. More of a distraction.
Imagine ur going to trial and THIS guy is across the room looking at u like this:
David Letterman had jury duty once and wouldn't shut up about it for several episodes of his show (he actually liked it.)
If you have job and financial security, it could be an interesting change of pace for a bit.
Im salaried, fuck it. Unfortunately my ADHD ass missed my last two jury summons that I had every intention of going to so they don't ask me anymore. At least they didn't arrest me 😅
Sheah, you're definitely lucky they didn't suspend you driver's license or something... or did they? I guess you won't know until you get pulled over and find out there's a $10k bench warrant on you.
Nah, I actually had a cop out front of my house doing something unrelated to me and I asked him if he had a sec to run my license. I'd rather find out right then and there rather than get my car towed. He said I was all good lol.
Realistically, seeing someone in a setting you do not expect them to be in would make you less likely to recognize them, so it would be less "Hey, Williem Dafoe is in my jury" and more "Hey, that guy in my jury kind of looks like the actor from Spider-man".
Think of it this way, if Williem Dafoe shows up at say, a tech conference, and went around telling everyone "I'm esteemed Academy Award nominated character actor Williem Dafoe", most people there are going to think:"Why is there a Williem Dafoe impersonator at this conference?" instead of "Why is Williem Dafoe here?"
Hiding in plain sight.
It pains me to see you refer to William Dafoe as "that actor from Spider-Man".
It's his major recent work in public eye, plus the MCU is huge in terms of pop culture, so I'm using this as an example of how he might currently be recognized in public as, not that it is what he is best known for.
(I don't want to talk about "Poor Things"... )
To add to your statement: a few years ago, Henry Cavill went to Times Square in NYC wearing a shirt with the Superman S, and just hung out around signs for Man of Steel, and pretty much nobody recognized him (or if they did, they didn't let it be known).
But then again, it is New York City, most pedestrian there are always in a rush to get to where they needed to be and wouldn't take a second glance at even the strangest happening as long as it isn't blocking their way.
the actor from Spider-man
You misspelt "The Boondock Saints".
Is William even able to sit in the jury seat with a shlong that long?
James Marsden had jury duty once, used his celeb status to get out of being sequestered!
(Watch jury duty on Amazon, if you're cringing too much just watch the last episode which is a re-cap and brilliant in it's own right, my wife won't watch the whole show but loved the last episode)
Surprised anyone has even seen that. Was a really fun watch.
Better call Willem Dafren to your side. … I’ll see myself out.
They get called in for jury duty just like anyone else, but I doubt many actually get selected for the jury. The last time I had to do jury duty one of the people in the jury pool was a car dealer owner that did a bunch of local commercials and he was one of the first peeps to get canned.
Generally you want your jury to be impartial and bland. Everyone in the jury should be paying attention not the case, not their fellow jury members.

GUILTY! Repeat third grade for contempt of humanity.
I'm sorry, officer. I swear it's not mine!
Just holding it for a friend, eh?
Celebrities? When was the last time politicians served jury duty? When was the last time they were even summoned?
sorry autist... what does this face mean to you?
His face is just serious and focused. Relatively neutral without a hint at what he's thinking.
(With the meme context, this would be the look of someone who is trying to size you up)
"Resting Skeptic Face"?
I thought it looked happy and amused. Maybe this is why I have trouble with socializing lmao
I was going to ask. He almost seems happy?
Imagine being in a jury with Willem Dafoe and disagreeing with him during deliberations.
Reminds me of this one
It has an email address for people to send in pictures... I wonder if they did anything with them.
