I hate to break it to you, oh impotent one, but you're not the big bad anymore, you're not even the kind of naughty.

KIDS!!!!

mac either stole money, took his own money without permission (of which there is very little), or lied to the people at school. He went and got ice cream KNOWING that I had told his teachers it was NOT ALLOWED. He knows he will get in trouble for this. The teacher went up and talked to him about it and he knows she emailed me. OMG WTF BRAIN EXPLODING. defiant child, let me show you.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Ugh msbelle. I think you are right in that he did this knowing he would get caught and get in trouble. Not sure what limit he is looking for here, but he's looking for a limit.

He's what age now? I can't remember. 11? 13?

Glad to hear about the pain appointment, ita.

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

Thanks, guys,

Oh, man, that looks like mac wanted a fight more than he wanted frosty goodness. That sounds like picking one, explicitly. I wish you...sanity? Is that what you need here? It's something I don't got, that's for sure.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

okay, that tiny puppy in IL was almost too much for me. I nearly said "fuck it" and went to get it.

I am stronger than that.

I AM.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Okay, so wasn't someone here having some nightmare with a mortgage and their bank?

A federal judge last week said that mega-bank Wells Fargo has to pay a homeowner $3.1 million, after the bank improperly charged him tens of thousands of dollars in mortgage payments and then tied his case up in court for years. Federal bankruptcy judge Elizabeth Magner minced no words in her excoriation of the bank

Wells Fargo has taken advantage of borrowers who rely on it to accurately apply payments and calculate the amounts owed. But perhaps more disturbing is Wells Fargo’s refusal to voluntarily correct its errors. It prefers to rely on the ignorance of borrowers or their inability to fund a challenge to its demands, rather than voluntarily relinquish gains obtained through improper accounting methods. Wells Fargo’s conduct was a breach of its contractual obligations to its borrowers. More importantly, when exposed, it revealed its true corporate character by denying any obligation to correct its past transgressions and mounting a legal assault ensure it never had to. Society requires that those in business conduct themselves with honestly and fair dealing. [...]

Wells Fargo’s actions were not only highly reprehensible, but its subsequent reaction on their exposure has been less than satisfactory. There is a strong societal interest in preventing such future conduct through a punitive award.
