He calmly recounted the sequence of events, saying that he couldn\u2019t help but notice the pregnant woman\u2019s condition when she first boarded the bus. The woman had initially sat beneath a sign that read, \u201cThe Double Mint Twins are coming,\u201d which caused him to grin. When she moved to a seat under a sign that said, \u201cLogan\u2019s Liniment will reduce the swelling,\u201d it made him smile even more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/pulsperry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/image-495.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-23504\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pulsperry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/image-495.png 1024w, https:\/\/pulsperry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/image-495-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/pulsperry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/image-495-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/pulsperry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/image-495-768x768.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The man continued, saying that she next moved to a spot under a sign that read, \u201cWilliam\u2019s Big Stick Did the Trick,\u201d which nearly made him laugh out loud. But it was when she finally settled under a sign stating, \u201cGoodyear Rubber could have prevented this Accident,\u201d that he lost all composure and laughed uncontrollably. The courtroom erupted in laughter, and the judge, clearly amused, dismissed the case.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/pulsperry.com\/?p=23493\" title=\"\">also read&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A Laugh That Led to Court, SIGNS, SMILES, AND A CASE DISMISSED, A woman, about eight months pregnant, boarded a bus one afternoon, only to notice that&#8230; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":23502,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/pulsperry.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23501"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/pulsperry.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/pulsperry.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pulsperry.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pulsperry.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=23501"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/pulsperry.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23501\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":23505,"href":"https:\/\/pulsperry.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23501\/revisions\/23505"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pulsperry.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/23502"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/pulsperry.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=23501"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pulsperry.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=23501"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pulsperry.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=23501"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
