I just took a man’s deposition who, when asked if he’d ever been arrested, said he had been for “defending my sister’s honor.”

Me:  “So, you are a man who would fight for her honor?”
Plaintiff:  “Excuse me?”
Me:  “Will you be the hero–she’s been dreaming of?
Plaintiff’s attorney:  “Objection.”

The man was from SE Asia, so I can only assume this incident involved a ring, a crowd, and several handheld noisemakers to drum encouragement.  Which means he probably hurt his back fighting, not from lifting stones at work.
