Personally, I'm more of a fan of "as if."

For example: "Hazel Agnes O'Leary ("Plaintiff") alleges that Piggly Wiggly Highway 64 Podunk LLC ("the Store") was on constructive notice of the puddle of lardo that she slipped in based upon a purported admission made by an unidentified teen-aged employee of the Store after the fall. The statement -- 'Bro, I totally missed that goo on my last mop dance. My bad.' -- appears nowhere in the record other than in the Plaintiff's Complaint and in her own self-serving affidavit in opposition to the Store's motion. Did the Plaintiff submit sufficient evidence that the Store had 'constructive notice' of the lardo? As if."

Nice. I legit wrote this in a brief today.

Piggly Wiggly's failure to comply with discovery includes producing a person who knew less than Jon Snow (who did “know some things”) . . . .

Well-played, sir - I say well-played.

In the defense of the Pig's lawyer, finding multiple people to appear and testify on behalf of an entity is kind of a pain. Even in-house lawyers for massive corporations (who should know better) say stuff to us like "do we really need to produce McGillicuddy *and* Corrigan? Can't we just give them Mac? I mean, Corrigan hasn't finished the TPS reports yet."

So if science can capture sounds from 1 billion years ago, shouldn't we be able to capture sound from the slave/paigow "date"? I really think it would answer some questions.
