Harvey Richards Lawyer For Children Harvey: Experienced? I was doing this before you were BORN, kid. Cash only. Pets, gum, and siblings not accepted as payment. We join Mr. Richards on one of this consultations. Suzy: Thank you for coming on such short notice, Mr. Richards. Harvey: My pleasure, Suzy. What's the problem? DAY OF THE CHIPMUNK Suzy: As you can see, this movie line is real long. Harvey: Indeed. Suzy: My friend Amanda is on line and will let me cut behind her, but... Harvey: I know. The other kids won't allow it because of the "NO BACKSIES" rule. Suzy: Exactly. Can anything be done? Harvey: Absolutely! As you know, "FRONTSIES" is a perfectly legal transaction. Suzy: Yeah, but Amanda won't let me cut in FRONT of her. Harvey: But after she gives YOU frontsies, you can give HER frontsies! By agreeing to this beforehand, you can EFFECTIVELY GET BACKSIES! Suzy: Brilliant! Harvey: As a matter of fact, I'm currently preparing an article on this for the Journal of Juvenile Jurisprudence: "Double Frontsies As A Creative Solution To The 'No Backsies' Rule." Suzy: Richards, you're expensive, but you're worth it!
I thought ‘No backsies’ was about undoing swaps…isn’t it?
