Enter the Confessional
...or... the Witness Stand!

What have you done that you felt that was questionable in terms of morals?
How did you justify it? ... does your conscience agree!?
Let the JURY OF OUR VILLAGE DECIDE!


How to Play: "Judge" the deed posted above you, make up a sentence even, then confess another morally ambiguous deed (real or fictional, up to you).


    Deed: At a party, I came over to the refreshment table and overheard
    a couple cutely arguing over who would eat the last jalapeno popper.
    They seemed to be getting pretty heated over it, so I just leaned over and
    popped it into my mouth. I smiled at their open jaws and walked away without
    giving them a chance to thank me for preventing their breakup.
    Justification: No one should break up over an hors d'oeuvre.

    Fellow Villager: Hmm, I guess that's good enough for you. They didn't have
    dibs just because they were arguing over it. It's too bad they didn't at least put it
    on their own plate to argue. lol

    Now lemme tell you what
    I did...


My dad's a diabetic. I looked at his store-bought gooey cinnamon buns. He didn't know I had a look of disgust on my face, so he said, "You can have 'em." I took that to mean I could do with them whatever I wanted. So I threw them away.
Justification: He said he wanted to eat better. I wanted him eat his words.

I feel bad for the cinnamon buns and I condemn you for being wasteful, court is ajourned (ha ha, never throw away a gift).

Deed: I love thinking up gay porn stories in my mind.

It's too bad I can't find justification in that deed.

I never refer to people by their first names unless it is absolutely necessary. I will most often refer to people as either "f*****t" or "b***h" depending on their gender. In a more professional setting, it is either "man" or "ma'am".

Justification: I remember the names of very few people that I am acquainted with. So as to not make people feel left out, I choose to refer to everyone as a generic "f*****t" or "b***h". In a professional environment, I slur my speech while saying "man/ma'am" just in case I guess their gender wrong.

You will be sent to prison for verbal abuse, there are better words, learn to use them.

My new deed: I wish that someone would burn my place down because the owners of such building do not take care of it.

It's too bad we're not in a scripted movie and arson is illegal. It's good enough to dream of living in a better place, inciting mutiny, or to take up caring for it yourself to the best of your ability.

My mom wants me to de-clutter her third bedroom to turn it into her little sanctuary. I told her I wouldn't touch it until she filed her 2014 taxes!
Justification: We're AMERICANS here, no Boston Tea Party Injuns!

Yay for telling your mom off. She wants her room de-cluttered, she can do it herself. Terry lets me clean up my mess, which I make it so that it looks like a tornado hit it (I doubt your mom has her place that bad), so there is no reason she cannot clean it up.

Arson may be illegal, but its better than all of the charges I can pile up for the company who owns the building.

Anyway, my new deed:

Continuously staying up until 5 in the morning and waking up at 3 in the afternoon.

You have been let off with an official warning that you need to sleep more regular hours. :3

Deed: Whenever we're eating dinner, I always choose the best food for myself.
Justification: I need my nutrients!

Well, Defendant, I feel I need more information, like you're hiding from me. Are there not enough good choices so that everyone can supply that goodness for their bodies as well? Is "best food" something unhealthy for you? Do you make others feel guilty around you for choosing health-conscious items, and perhaps even shame them for taking other options?
It's too bad you weren't more elaborate. Court adjourned until further evidence is found.

I went to an audition today, but left without auditioning.
Justification: I barely survived a nervous breakdown at the last show! It's my best talent, but I have to survive the workload! Besides, free food was on the line!

I find this to be a good thing, for added stress is bad. (The justification helped your case)

However, your free food excuse in your justification is not such a good thing. Yes, food is important, but it should never take priority in one's mind, even under stressful situations. In fact, food should be the last thing you think about when stressed. I hereby sentence you to a cooking class so that regardless of what anyone else has made, you can make for yourself and in a hurry too. I mean, peanut butter n jam sandwiches are easy to make. Understandable if you have allergies to nuts or cannot withstand bread.

The previous defendant with choosing the best foods for themselves has a good attitude and yet, if they made the food, which the info for that was not given, then it would always be the better.

Now for my deed:

I live in a place with no elevator and its a tall building that only has stairs to climb. I am on the top floor, and the company that owns the building refuses to put in an elevator giving the excuse that the building is too old (which is a lie...there are much older buildings that have elevators). I want to bring justice to said company without breaking the law, and yes, I have talked with them about the situation.

A desire heeds no judgment. It's the actions we judge tilted by the desires that influenced them. Come back when you torched the place I mean brought organized justice. Then we'll have our verdict. It's too bad you're a snitch though. (kidding; this is a game after all)

PS: 1) I was out of town with no kitchen of my own. 2) I dislike eating by or cooking for just myself, so if a family member offers to invite me to a family meal, over which I love a good bonding conversation, I'll take it whether it's viewed as wrong, slothful or selfish. SLOW FOOD MOVEMENT FTW! *trashes McD's*

I sneak attacked my mom with a kiss on the neck while my stepdad was asleep. Then, against her wishes, I woke him up with a kiss on the forehead even though we're having a silent standoff.
Justification: I saw a movie that made me feel good. Short Term 12. Brie Larson is awesome.

It's too bad that more people don't care for and show as much affection to their parents as you do. :] Your justification was good enough, even though you didn't even need one.

Deed: I just saved fifteen percent on my car insurance by switching to Geico.
Justification: I don't have a car and never got my license. cat_talk2hand

Judgement: You lost all that money spent on insurance you absolutely didn't need. Saved from what?!? lol

Deed: I told my mom and dad I would not be joining them to celebrate their 56th anniversary today. Card to be delivered at some undetermined later date.

Justification: I have a wicked cold and they're in their 70's, so I don't want them to get it.

Deed: I stole money from a gecko (who shall remain nameless) to buy car insurance that I wasn't going to use.

Justification: The gecko is a representative of a certain company that lies about how much it saves people money. cat_talk2hand

Too bad for you - many sleepless nights ahead.

I accused someone of stealing without having proof.

Wow, accusing without evidence is assuming, and to assume makes an a** out of u & me. It's too bad you couldn't prove it, but I can understand the frustration of losing something outside of your doing.

I bought a new set of markers for a dry-erase board I offered to the mail center in this house of roommates. I would pin the coupons to the cork and write the expiration dates over them. The very next day, one of the magnetic markers was missing, so I texted the group about it, and no one replied or returned it, so I ripped off the coupons and removed the dry erase board.
Justification: Someone stole from me, preventing me from doing them a service, so the service goes away.
