So I just learned that one of the stroller/carseat combos my brother has? Was a freebie from the hospital. How common is that? It's one of those gracos or whatever (I can't be bothered to look. T is sleeping and D has banned me from legos.) Of course, freebie is a relative term, what with the bill even after insurance. Ok, being summoned.
Do you see any goats around? No, because I sacrificed them.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Dude, all I got free from the hospital was a pamphlet on why you shouldn't shake babies and a shitload of formula samples. I totally would have preferred a travel system!

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
I'm being interviewed by Sally Jessy Raphael on the 27th.
That's surreal, right?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Huh.
Yep, surreal.
What show does she do? The Sally Jessy Raphael Show?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
What show does she do?
She has a talk radio show these days.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Best brace yourself for a metric assload of Internet baby-raping ax-murderer questions.

That's kinda cool, paperdol! GO YOU!
I wish I had gotten a travel system. Instead, I got many nasal cannulas, free formula (but the neosure instant feeder bottles), some blankets, some diapers, duoderm, butt paste, three bulb syringes, saline bullets, apnea monitor and oxygen tanks.

My answer to the baby-raper questions, I've honed, is that I have no idea about any of that. I've never experienced it and I've been deeply involved in internet communities for almost ten years. I'm 34, so I'm not in that demographic. Besides, every day, for twenty years, millions and millions and millions of people have used the net, and nothing bad has ever happened to them.
I suppose that more people have been diddled by priests and softball coaches than have ever been victimized on the net, but then, I've never found any sort of statistic on victims of crimes occuring on the net, so I'm not sure where, exactly, the hysteria is coming from.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
You should cut her off at the pass with "You're not going to ask me the same net-raper questions as everyone else, are you?"
