Makes you think about whether elected Senates are truly better...

Yep; I'm still shaking my head. I had to rewind twice just to make sure that I actually really did hear him say that.  :-\

Absolutely incredible. Where did they dig up that mouth breather- never mind how did he get elected?

McDonald's sued over happy meals - Consumer group claims Happy Meals 'bait and induce' children

To borrow from some of the comments:

You could always, I don't know, not buy it? Say no?

Parents these days are pathetic pushovers.

Children eight years-old and younger do not have the cognitive skills and the developmental maturity to understand the persuasive intent of marketing and advertising, they also don't have jobs and the means to purchase the happy meal so the decision rests on the parent.

Here's a thought. Don't take them to a fast food joint.

If you are concerned about the helath of your child DON"T FEED HIM MCDONALD'S you FUNT! Let your kids control you and run rampant then yopu will want society to fix the problem you created. People make me SICK!

Simply put, parents these days are spineless pushovers. This is also clearly just a money grab.

GUH - If they succeed in that class lawsuit I'm going to dig a hole, put my head in it, and never come out - I will have lost every last ounce of willpower I have to live in this crazy world.

Got an e-mail today from a Nigerian PRINCE! I **** you not! He said if I supply him my bank info and SIN, he's gonna give me 2,000,000 dollars to hold onto his fortune for a few months. What an idiot! I'd've done it for WAY less!

I've found they stop responding if you cut and paste random excerpts from "adult" sites. 

 

[Strike]

Or go to random adult sites and register with their e-mail address.

That's terrible! What if Going by the spelling/grammar/punctuation, the Prince is only 8 years old!! That makes you one of "those dirty old internet men"... ;D

 

[Loachman]

Or go to random adult sites and register with their e-mail address.

Of course, that's the only reason why you visit such sites...

Ah....oh diplomatic one!!!  ;D  Just don't give him the email address to your favorite, he might bankrupt them if they fall for it......... :nod:

My office just wrapped up a major project with the AU last year, requiring a lot of trips/meetings to Ethiopia. Likely due to this, we get quite a number of 419 scam emails and the like (never give just anyone a business card in Africa if you can help it...).

Anyway, one day my colleague gets two emails at about the same time. One was from a nice lady whose wealthy husband passed away, and for some reason wanted to give him 7 million dollars (...and can you please send your banking info so we can deposit this amount? God Bless You!). The second email was from an unregistered (and very dodgy) charity soliciting funds to pay for a village irrigation system or something.

My friend replied by CC'ing both addresses, writing, "Well, I don't really need the money, and it appears that these fine people do. I have included their email address. Perhaps you two could work something out?"

That reminds me of the guy who cc'd the viagra spam and weight loss spam asking if they can transfer his excess weight a bit lower

B.C. liquor prices should be increased to reduce illness and injuries, and alcoholic beverages should be given free to homeless alcoholics, addiction researchers at the University of Victoria say in a wide-ranging report.
