There has to be a nine syllable German word describing this exact kind of irony: “It feels very exploitive to me,” added Hansen. “It feels sneaky and disingenuous to me that they would do this and not even say, ‘This is what we’re doing.'”

This is painful to watch. Appellant included numerous fictitious cites and is rightfully criticized by the panel for it. But the criticism doesn't end there--neither appellee apparently reviewed Appellant's brief closely enough to catch the cites, and that's also unacceptable.

Eliminating the Impossible xkcd.com/3210/
4-panel comic. (1) [Person with white hat talking to another person.] PERSON 1 with white hat: As Sherlock Holmes said, When you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth. (2) PERSON 2: What about the possibility that you forgot to eliminate a possibility? Or that you eliminated one incorrectly? Both of those remain, too. (3) PERSON 1: You’re being pedantic. It’s just a general rule for deduction. PERSON 2: But it’s a *bad rule*. (4) PERSON 2: How often have you thought, “I can’t find this thing, and I’ve searched the whole house. The only place I haven’t looked is the car, so it *must* be there.” PERSON 2: ...And then it’s never in the car. PERSON 1: *It’s never in the car!*

In my furious revulsion at what Trump said about Rob Reiner and his wife, Michele, I missed that it was Michele who took the flattering cover photo of Trump for his book, The Art of the Deal. Impossibly, this makes his reaction even worse.
