Oh yes, and the people defending the healthcare system that's great when you're either healthy or rich.

If someone does this at home on their pet, they should be charged with felony animal abuse. I've heard of pit bull owners actually using scissors! Grr. Also, backyard breeding should be banned & person caught doing so without a license should be jailed & fined.

Ugh, yes, I read a story a while back where a 12 year old was marrying a 30 year old man. It's disgusting, it makes me sad even thinking of it.

I'd agree with the idea, that politicians who get sponsored need to wear the logo of the person paying them. It's normal in sports, it should be normal in politics. I'd love to know who got bought by whom.

I 100% agree, I f*****g hate child beauty pageants. A lot of the time it seems to be the mums that want it and not the actual kids. And don’t get me started on the stage mums that wax their kids eyebrows, dress them provocatively, cake on the makeup like a cheap hooker, teaching their kids that looks are everything and they have to fit a certain mould, spray tanning them in the colour of an Oompa Loompa, padding the chest area, promoting plastic surgery and more. These are kids for Christ sakes, if the parents want to be in a beauty pageant then they should go ahead but a beauty pageant is not a place for kids. Especially when they don’t have the cognitive ability to think of the consequences.

I am Security in Canada trying to get enough experience to work for the Govt, and even with Covid going on None of us got extra pay. At 41 Im making the same wage I did at 23.

NOW THIS is a problem!! When I’m tryna click the teeny weeny x, instead I just click the ad and it takes me to the App Store! 😡

Many 'peaceful religion' countries put even homosexuals and apostates to death.

Ricky Gervais put it perfectly - Apple product manufacturing outsourced company's 18 employees (Foxconn) committed suicide. Apple makes products which are heavily marked up. It's a trillion dollar company. Yet sanctimonious celebs have no problem working for Apple TV. People have more problem with Amazon than they do with Apple!

Ugh, this one annoys me so bloody much. Especially when I am wearing headphones watching catch up tv.

I would add "editing those textbooks in one or two little ways every year so that the students can't buy last year's used textbooks since they 'aren't the correct edition'"

Conversion therapy is still legal? That's disgusting.

Because you will get this: A company that has operated a private prison in Estancia [New Mexico] for nearly three decades has announced it will close the Torrance County Detention Facility and lay off more than 200 employees unless it can find 300 state or federal inmates to fill empty beds within the next 60 days, according to a statement issued Tuesday by county officials. https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2017/8/1/1686101/-Private-for-profit-prison-threatens-to-close-unless-government-finds-them-more-prisoners

No, in the US Internal Affairs is hated by regular officers, and in Canada it is done by Civilians who are a third party.

YES, YES, YES. Parents should NEVER use their child as a p**n in a custody game or lie and manipulate to get what they want. You have to be completely selfish to do things like that, only thinking of yourself and getting revenge and not what is right for the child and their needs/wants etc.

Most European countries have laws against this. In the Netherlands you must be able to unsubscribe as easily and in the same way as you subscribe. Companies that are failing to do so can expect hefty fines.

I wouldn't mind the ads so much if the robot overlord could use its AI powers to figure out that I don't want to buy a damn Buick, and I won't drink shitty alcohol!

The point theyre trying to make is EVERY APP DOES THIS! Even AVG anti virus wants to be allowed to look at your texts and change what happens on your phone. None of them need to be able to do anything or see anything on your phone. It isnt even things they could relate to advertising to you

Agreed. I was horrified by all the garbage in the bill for covid relief.

"Karens should be illegal" is what I get from this and I love it XD

Even pharma companies frequently add a supplement to a medicine, apply for patent and sell for an increased cost.

But then who will pay for CONgress?

Scared crowd - obedient crowd. Unfortunately, no one cares about consequences/effects to single individuals.

I truly question the motivations of any adult who wants to watch or be involved with such a thing.

People who work for different parts of the Canadian Govts get to use their sick days for going on trips. Have to use them up, and also get General Illness so theyre paid just a tiny bit less while being off work and could go on for years

The Car warranty people are the worst

Or sirens.

same with the social media companies

Or one size fits all. Who are these mythical "all?"

Short sighted in the way that only huge corporations can be. It's like the plot from one of the 'Damien' films has been followed almost exactly (honestly - rewatch it and see just how accurate it is - scary)

Is this for real?

Holy s**t, that was legal! Googe provided several ads for those kidnapping companies.

such thing exists? never heard of it :(

They what?! It sounds illegal to me. Or like a beginning of some SF movie about our troubled future.

is this legal???????

Dr. Phil is really wild about these indoctrination facilities. "Give me your troubled addicted teen and I'll send the kid to a teen concentration camp where we'll make a honest to god, law abiding redneck out of him."

When I click "Load more replies" in the comments and get taken to a website trying to sell something, as was the case here a second ago for me... again. I hope whomever keeps doing this in boredpanda shits their own brains right out of their ass.

Kidnapping and abuse can't be legal, surely? It ought to be a violation of the Convention on the Rights of the Child, which almost all countries in the world have signed, even though the US still hasn't ratified it.

This would definitely make for an awkward Thanksgiving dinner.

um, this post came via ‘my dong is a wifi hotspot’? fukkit

this is illegal, its what scammers do

With the parents consent or being forced by the parents? I strongly doubt many 14 year olds find a man that age attractive. Either way it shouldn't be allowed.

thats true, should be some sort of mandatory eyesight examination after certain age in order to keep a license. Had once from 80yo driver: "oops, sorry, but it's just a scratch, no big deal, you will repaint it for 20$" which actually costed insurance 700 bucks full door repaint and dent reparation. His vision wasn't even good enough to see what he did :))

I will never understand how generation after generation continues to fall for this stuff. It's really painful to watch a friend get duped, and then really annoying when said friend is constantly nagging you to buy their crap.

Pay-day loans are userous, therefore illegal... Laws are not enforced...

It is actually illegal if you are in the US to solicit by phone if you are on the do not call list. The problem is that the phone numbers they call from are fake and they live outside of the US so no punishment can be enforced

THIS! I worked inpatient psych for years. People with cannabis-induced psychosis (yes, it's real, it can happen but it's not terribly common) get better. I have never seen anyone with K2-induced psychosis (much, much more common among K2 users) get better. It is far better to use the cannabis nature intended.

I cant reply to Jeff so might as well say something. Jeff I was driving one day and I heard a siren on the radio. making me slow down so they can pass. I ended up causing a bit of a traffic jam thanks to that Tim button moxie auto sales commercial
