What's the guarantee? I live in LA. There are no stars. Like, do I get my money back?

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Sure, but a quick course of antibiotics clears him right up.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

You're just looking at it wrong.
You live in LA. There's a star at your local Coffee Bean right now.

Study shows that short glasses make you drink more:
People pour 20-30% more alcohol into short, wide glasses than into tall, narrow ones of the same volume, but they wrongly believe that tall glasses hold more, finds a study in this week's BMJ.
Even professional bartenders pour more into short, wide "tumblers" than into "highball" glasses, suggesting that experience of pouring alcohol has little effect.
The study involved 198 college students and 86 bartenders from a large city in the United States.
After several practice pours, half the students were given tall, slender 355 ml glasses and half were given short, wide 355 ml glasses. They were then asked to pour a standard "shot" of alcohol (1.5 ounces, 44.3 ml) for four mixed drinks (vodka tonic, rum and Coke, whiskey on the rocks, and gin and tonic).
Each bartender was also asked to pour the same four drinks, either with no instructions or after being told to take their time.
Both students and bartenders poured more into short, wide glasses than into tall, slender glasses. Among students, practice reduced the tendency to overpour into tall glasses, but not into short, wide glasses. Most students also believed that the tall glasses held more.
Despite an average of six years of experience, bartenders poured 20.5% more into short, wide glasses than tall, slender ones. Paying careful attention reduced but did not eliminate the effect.
