A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Barra is a word that comes from Law French and means "bar". It has two historical meanings:

Plea in bar: A legal defense that prevents a case from proceeding.
Barrister: A type of lawyer who is qualified to represent clients in court.

For example, if a defendant raises a plea in bar, they are arguing that the case against them should be dismissed because of a legal technicality. A barrister, on the other hand, is a type of lawyer who has been called to the bar and is qualified to represent clients in court.

The term "bar" in this context refers to the physical barrier that separates lawyers and judges from the rest of the courtroom. Only qualified lawyers are allowed to pass this barrier and represent clients in court.

The whole having a group of hot chick friends you can flirt with while going out is great. Makes for a fun and safer environment when drinking.

Crazy story, I had dinner with the dad of a friend of mine and he just openly went on Tinder in front of me and the other guys. Later my mom ran into him with another woman (not his wife/friend's mom) and he got very uncomfortable and never texted her again

I can't imagine what it's like being a cheater or like a serial dater. Shit seems so nervewracking

My wife and I have great and open communication but one night she kept asking me why this girl is blowing up my phone with messages/pictures so I showed her... she got a new puppy and got drunk so had her puppy doing a fashion shoot at 11pm.

I need more hot friends to hang with, the town we are in sucks butt for it and everyone seems shifty/flaky.

I keep my dating very clean and above board. No overlaps, no ambiguities. If you want to go into some sort of public office in the future it's good to be smart about things like that

babycat

15:18

So many politicians have sex scandals and that's how they get blackmailed and other people have power over them. I mean of course there are ethical and emotional issues too but it's literally just smart to not be a cheater

BulbasaurNoLikeCardio

15:19

I would never go into public office as it drags in your family as well. Dating is so much easier then some people make it out to be and it is not that hard to not cheat. I would always tell my soldiers to rub one out before making a big decision so they arent acting dumb

15:20

Like if more cheaters just paused and rubbed one out they would be like you know maybe ill just watch some TV

babycat

15:20

I've seen some people do a really good job keeping their family out of it. But it really is an "anything they can use against you, they will" type of vibe

babycat

15:21

Ugh I need to go work on essays bye folks

BulbasaurNoLikeCardio

15:22

I don't do anything I can be blackmailed with, I like money too much to be sketch. Have fun doing your essays and a good weekend

I got to work on essays for finals but I'm like that is a next week me problem. I am glad to be done with LS ones. I felt weird talking about myself
