By definition, if the internet is down I am NOT okay.

Nothing says luxury like simulated wood grain accents.

You're absolutely right! The best known Tesla I'm aware of died at age 78:

I'm not sure if there are any that made to be 100.

It has nothing to do with nude photos of Natalie Portman either.

You've clearly missed the TEA party revolution. "Angry young men with impacted reasoning abilities" is one of their recruiting slogans.

Sure it's good to have fewer people behind bars...if you happen to be people. But corporations run many jails now, and depend on your tax dollars to simply put food on the table for their corporate families. If there are no inmates, who will make money feeding them $0.86 meals, or use 19th century methods of medical care to maximize profits, or make payments on their newly built facilities? It's still a young industry. Won't you think of the corporate children?

I say it's time we stand up and put more people behind bars. For you. For Me. For the corporations. Because when corporations suffer, we all feel the hurt.*

*not really, but it seems like a good slogan

(that was the idea; too subtle, I guess)

I quoteth from the text:

"Parents may be held directly liable, however, for their own negligence in failing to supervise or control their child with regard to conduct which poses an unreasonable risk of harming others."

citation: Assurance Co. of America v. Bell, 108 Ga. App. at 766-767 (4) (“A
parent may be guilty of primary negligence in failing to exercise reasonable care to
prevent a child under his control from creating an unreasonable risk of harm to third
persons, where he has knowledge of facts from which he should reasonably anticipate
that harm will otherwise result.

You'll have to look up the big words in the dictionary yourself, I don't have time to do all of your thinking for you.

If they are a minor, are they not subject to legal proceedings?

It has been generally held that, in civil matters, the parents and/or guardians are financially liable for damaged caused by a minor dependent.

Why buy the city when you only need to buy the city manager?

Part of the dumb fuck right wing, I see. You should learn more about the government you hate (and the FMLA) and the corporations you love (and why they don't value you enough to buy you better healthcare).

How many iPhones did your kids sell last quarter?

They say the art of language is dead.

The asshole in me wants to tell you that you take that as a slap in the face because you already, on some level, believe that you are a less productive employee (person, citizen).

In reality, this is true in the sense that your company does not come first, your family does. Your time is split, and the profit of your employer is not your number one priority, your family is. (As it should be, I should add). There is no politically correct way to say, "we're going to offer you the option to delay your family obligations so it doesn't get in the way of your value to the corporation". Because, lets face it, kids are a selfish thing to do. You're going to spend half a million dollars and remove a good 20,000 hours of "work time" from the system, plus (statstically) cost the government another $150k in education just so you can have a child, when there are really too many humans on the planet already.

It's true of employer sponsored daycare, too. They're really saying that you can't be a good mom and make us money, but we can take care of your kid so you can concentrate on what matters to us - productivity. Heck, it's been implied by all the corporations who (unabashedly) say, "we'll pay you enough so that your wife doesn't have to work," but what they really mean is we expect 100% from you and that means none of that pick-up-the-kids, go-to-every-little-league-game bullshit that keeps you from focusing on your work.

One persons large spread on a conversion, is another persons bargain on laundering.
