what does Dredd do when he's not on duty?
does he just sit in his apartment and stare the walls and wait for a new shift to start?

would imagine he's never off duty
Sleeps. And when he's not sleeping he's on patrol.
>what does Dredd do when he's not on duty?
during the times shown - he is either in a sleep machine, or during the odd rare times when he visited his given apartment space, he used it to groom himself.
what kind of food does Dredd eat?
Coffee and donuts?
I really wish I had a sleeping machine.
I just read the werewolf story. 10 minutes in a T.R.I. substitutes a fulll night's rest. The shit I could get done with more than 23 hours per day....

Very slowly bathing himself. VERY slowly
Catching up on paperwork
Catching up on THE LAW!
In case Judge user visits this thread, I have a few questions:
>What are Credits worth? What does a normal car cost, a burger, a pair of regular shoes, regular rent? What is "a lot" credits?
>What kind of contraband exists? So far I only know about Boing! spray and Umpty candy.
>How is "drokk" pronounced?
>Are there rich and poor blocks right across?
>After the Condo sabotage events, did they still exist? Or was the concept scrapped altogether with how half a million people had died?
>How essential are the Daystick and Boot Knife for a Judge?
Judge Dredd actually lives a very sad withdrawn life when he's not on duty. He's like an even worse version of Batman except he doesn't even have pleasant distractions. He literally either sleeps, reads up on the law, does paperwork, grooms himself, or (at one point) worked on writing a book about how judges should behave.
He literally has no life and its easy to see why judges who aren't as one dimensional as him get disillusioned with the job.
>The literal only reason what sets Dredd apart from every other Judge, is that he literally doesn't see himself as a person. Merely a meat-cog in the wheels of the Law.
Which made Blessed Earth that much worse. Instead of making it about how an older Dredd tries to be warm to the innocent whilst being cold to the lawbreakers, its just "Dredd supports robot apartheid with KKK standins".
That sounds very Cardassian.
You know how babies laugh and gurgle when you play with then? Do you think Dredd and Rico laughed as babies too?
He is. He doesn't do much outside being on the streets.
- Credits are pretty much dollars, in everything but name. A thousand creds is considered expensive and unreachable by most unemployed citizens, who live off welfare.
- Sugar, coffee, real chocolate, cigarettes, anti-aging drugs made out of the glands of an alien race called the Stookie... and that's before we get into the really heinous stuff, like VIDEOGAMES and COMICS.
- Drokk is pronounced drokk.
- Usually not, but when needs must and blocks get too crowded/destroyed, it's not unusual for low-class cits to be moved into richer blocks, or nearby.
- Far as I know, Condos have not come back.
- The daystick can see more action than a Lawgiver sometimes. The knife, not so much, but it's saved Dredd's life more than once. Just remember to scream "BOOT KNIFE!" any time you use it and you'll be golden.
Has Dredd ever had sex?
He is never off duty. He rarely has the recommended 8 hours natural sleep a week that judges are supposed to have.
He usually takes 1hour sleep cube.
In early progs he would spend his down time reading lawbooks.
Anyway, how about we answer OP's question with a tale as old as time itself?
Even Agent 47 has more of a private life and he's basically a monk.
At least he probably spends his entire off-time learning new skills for his next cover story when he's doing a hit.
That's a negative. Our man Joe's a 70 year old virgin. Unless you consider getting implanted with an alien parasite having sex.
No, but he was close to shagging Demarco.
He used to be off-duty, as part of a Justice Department outreach program when he was still a Block Judge in addition to his street duties.
But then he wasn't: last I heard, the second Rico took over, even lived in the old man's apartment at Rowdy Yates.
When he's not on the streets he's either in the sleep machine, the speed heal, or taking his occasional Mandatory 8.
Also, is it just me or does Dredd with his belt off look kinda... y'know...
Best girl.
Dredd wants you to join his book club, Zig Forums.
Y/N?
>clam lappers
>rug munchers
I think we've solved the mystery of why DeMarco and Dredd never got together
... Oof.
Ahh, a classic. Dredd vs Meetings.
>Our man Joe's a 70 year old virgin.
A true inspiration for every wizard candidate on this site.
No. The tragedy of Dredd is that he is almost a meat robot. He does have his tender moments every now and then, but as a character and a person he is very empty inside.
More of a manifestation of what the ideal Judge should be than an actual person.
Christ that's sad
>taking a nap to avoid dealing with the soul-crushing ennui of abundant free time
And they say Dredd isn't relatable!
It sounds very Worf, honestly.
Spoonheads take actual joy in the law unlike this fella. They do love their fanciful enigma tales after all.
>A true inspiration for every wizard candidate on this site.
To be a soulless human-robot cog in a vast uncaring bureaucracy?
>tfw wizard who works for the post office
"The Never Ending Sacrifice" Comes to mind.
