Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
After reading the following posts, I'm more glad than ever that I didn't click through!
As Nietzsche said, "Battle not with monsters, lest ye become a monster, and if you gaze into the abyss, the abyss gazes also into you. Also, don't watch that Orangina furry ad."

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
I dunno tommyrot, I think the real take away is "Just because you can CGI it, doesn't mean you should."

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

Huh. That's something I didn't find amongst Mom's things. I should ask Dad if he knows where my baby teeth are. Because yes, I totally am the sort of person who would wear jewelry made with her baby teeth.

I should announce: I will recline my seat. I'm not sorry. However, feel free to recline your seat into my lap. Life sucks, but for me, attempting vague horizontality is premium, and I'm willing to give up upper leg room in order to use the chairs like they were designed.
