finding Phantom2 (He Who Needs No One To Defend Him) shocked into silence, near catatonia, and entered into that state of involuntary consent similar to coma patients in a hospital, files an appearance on phantypoo's *AHEM* Phantom2's behalf and cites inflammatory dicta from Eddie Varley's whirlwind deposition:
NDP: You realize, Mr. Varley, that the testimony which you give today for purposes of your suit at law is subject to all the penalties of perjury?
EV: I'm pro se.
NDP: I don't care if you're representing yourself, answer the question put before you or I'll call the Magistrate and ask that she enter a finding against you for contempt.
EV: Okay, yeah, I get it about the perjury.
NDP: And where, exactly, did this alleged marriage to Phantom2 take place?
EV: Uh, it was just a common law thing.
NDP: There is no common law marriage in New York. Do I need to repeat the question?
EV: It was a marriage of convenience.
NDP: Was this so-called "marriage of convenience" that you speak of a marriage between a man and a woman such as to meet the requirements of the law?
