Funny Ontario Superior Court Decision

Jezebel has picked up on a story about an Ontario divorce decision that is going viral. Ontario Superior Court Judge Joseph Quinn -- no, not the Joseph Quinn from Dexter pictured here -- slammed a couple for "marinating in a mutual hatred so intense as to surely amount to a personality disorder."

The judge also pronounced the idea of reconciliation "laughable," mentioning the wife's attempt to run the husband over as — "always a telltale sign that a husband and wife are drifting apart."

Further evidence? The husband's habit of giving his wife's house the bird whenever he passed. Observed Quinn, "a finger is worth a thousand words and therefore, is particularly useful should one have a vocabulary of less than a thousand words." Ouch!
