I believe the cliché is "just deserved". And man, I don't know if stupid people deserve to be shot in the leg twice. But he sure did get something for his troubles that is for certain...
The only way this story could have been any worse is if the guy shot himself in the head instead of the leg, and got himself a darwin award :rolleyes:
Perhaps he should try for a plea of insanity ? :D
The original post is correct, the cliche is "just desserts".Quote:

The real story in all of this is that he went up the river back in 1963 for this sort of thing. This isn't the first time he's done this sort of thing. You would think people would choose a different line of work.
...nothing like shooting yourself in the foot.

The only thing there is "just rewards". The reason I brought it up to begin with was becasue I can' t see how "just deserts" makes any sense....:)
A lot of people find that hard to follow, eg:Quote:

Basically "desert" (pronounced like after-meal sweets) means "that which is deserved".
So "just deserts" concisely says "those things which are justly deserved".
Hope that helps.
Thanks for clearing that up! :D
