UTG raises to 40 preflop, folds to MP1 who calls, I am next to act with JJ.

How to play this hand? I have about $180 in front of me, both players who are involved have me covered.

I push it in, and expect to lose in one of the following ways:

1) Guy on the button pees himself with excitement and pushes over the top with AA

2) Drunk happened to have AA-QQ this time

3) Drunk catches ace on the flop, A7 g00t.

I think that MP1 would have isolated with the only hands that have you beat -- AA, KK, QQ -- so you're only worrying about the drunk and the people behind you. I'll push and take the odds that no one behind you has AA-QQ, and gamble with the drunk.

If he has the goods this time, I'll rebuy and possibly curse my good fortune to be seated with such a player.
