Great quote from my idiot roommate in Contracts today:

Creature: "Ok, so, I'm confused, it seems like all this jargon just confuses things... 'consideration,' and 'detriment'---"
Prof. Contracts: "Well I didn't make those up, they're in the Restatement."

Note: "consideration" and "detriment" have Big, Fancy Legal Meanings. That have been drilled into our heads since the first day of orientation.
