Hi, admins
Are forum games like "complete the sentence" and "3 letter word game" allowed on MiBo in the offtopic forum?

The off topic section is for anything not mindstorms related. Just don't be rude or offensive.

It can mean several things, but basically it means that you mouth your disapproval for/of something.

Laywers use it in court a lot.
"Is it true that on the night of Saturday, the 9th of April 2011, you killed your neighbour with a piece of Lego?"
"Objection, your honour!"
"Sustained."
Like that.

yes, that's like I used "Einspruch" = "objection".
If a non-lawyer uses it it sounds for us sort of ironical or satyrical or sth like that...

If I were a lawyer, I'd strangle anyone who said "Objection!" in the courtroom. Of course, I wouldn't win any cases, but oh well.

And you'd also be held for contempt of court
