Be what? In contempt? You'll have to do better than that dangling sentence, mate.

Can you go back in time to 2009 and tell "WHARRGARBL" that their music taste is shit, and that (at least) two of their favourite bands are fronted by sex pests?b3ta.com/talk/5807993

I don't have a time machine, but I can tell you 2009 WHARRGARBL that their taste is a crime scene and hope the message travels backwards through sheer embarrassment.

The Porcupine From Purgatory is asking a serious question. Rob '50p ham' Manuel is the owner of B3ta and is on thin ice as it is. As /talk's legal expert, we need your advice on whether it's ok to post Russel Brand jokes given the ongoing rape court case(

DEAR INTERNET USER. POSTING JOKES ABOUT A DEFENDANT FACING RAPE CHARGES IS NOT A LEGAL RISK TO YOU; IT IS A MORAL ONE. THE LAW PERMITS IT. BASIC HUMAN DECENCY DOES NOT.

But surely it's ok if he's definitely a rapist and also really annoying and not a very good comedian? Legal advice request.(

DEAR INTERNET USERIN ENGLISH LAW A PERSON IS PRESUMED INNOCENT UNTIL CONVICTED BY A COMPETENT COURT. THE PHRASE "DEFINITELY A RAPIST" IS A SUBMISSION OF OPINION DRESSED AS FACT AND IS NOT ADMISSIBLE AS INTERNET EVIDENCE. PLEASE STATE WHETHER A CONVICTION HAS BEEN RECORDED OR WHETHER THIS IS MERELY THE SORT OF THING ONE SAYS AFTER THREE PINTS

DEAR INTERNET USERTHE QUALITY OF HIS COMEDY IS IRRELEVANT TO THE ISSUE OF CONTEMPT OF COURT.
PUBLICATIONS WHICH CREATE A SUBSTANTIAL RISK OF SERIOUS PREJUDICE TO ACTIVE PROCEEDINGS MAY AMOUNT TO CONTEMPT.
PLEASE CONFIRM WHETHER THE TRIAL HAS CONCLUDED.
