A quick definition of wobbler:

A wobbler is a type of crime that can be either a felony or a misdemeanor, depending on the seriousness of the offense. Examples of wobblers include assault with a deadly weapon, money laundering, and defacing property with graffiti. The decision to classify a wobbler as a felony or misdemeanor is up to the court's discretion, and is based on factors such as the nature of the offense and the defendant's history. Wobblers are punished according to felony or misdemeanor standards, and can result in imprisonment or fines.

A more thorough explanation:

A wobbler is a type of crime that can be classified as either a felony or a misdemeanor, depending on the severity of the offense and the discretion of the court. This means that the punishment for a wobbler can range from imprisonment in county jail to a term in state prison, as well as fines.

Examples of wobbler crimes include assault with a deadly weapon, vehicular manslaughter, money laundering, and defacement of property with graffiti. In California, petty theft can also be considered a wobbler if the defendant has a history of theft-related crimes.

The court's decision to classify a crime as a felony or misdemeanor is based on various factors, such as the nature and circumstances of the offense, the defendant's attitude towards the offense, and the general objectives of sentencing. The court has broad discretion in making this decision.

Overall, wobblers are a unique class of crimes that require careful consideration by the court to ensure that the punishment fits the severity of the offense.

Feeling like sad drinking tonight, wife accidentally tossed out my truck keys and those are expensive as fuck to replace. The crappiest part is that the key chain had the "remove before flight" tab from my first aircraft's rocket pods overseas from 6 years ago. Then find out people fucked around and back dated reports at work making me look like a shit bag so I am working later tonight and missing range time which is my weekly relax/me time. Add in my sleep meds stopped working, so I am thinking vodka (so I stay skinny and hot) and pizza by the fireplace kind of friday.

Dkk
15:00
I could never imagine myself doing that on a first date.
Dkk
15:01
@BulbasaurNoLikeCardio: hope things get better
babycat

@Dkk: what if it’s someone you’ve known for a long time but never dated?
Dkk
15:03
Maybe but things would have to go like perfectly. I could not imagine them going perfectly.
15:04
Sleeping on the first date just isn't my style, idk. I take things painfully slowly and much prefer to befriend and really get to know a girl first before doing any of that
