Bug#697252: fortunes-off: need to add: lawyers-coders crack



Package: fortunes-off
Severity: wishlist

Dear Maintainer,

This gem belongs in fortunes:

	Here’s the thing about lawyers: they don’t write to communicate.
	Lawyers are like programmers, their code doesn’t have to be
	human-readable. It may even be deliberately obfuscated. It just
	has to run on the target system and produce the desired outcome.
	In the case of terms-of-use language, the target system is the
	courts, and the desired outcome is income.
