Hmmm, I'm bothered by the amount of plastic litter on the beach near my home, guess I'll just go home and throw out every plastic thing I own as a protest...
This list is pretty silly- I've seen the show a few times, and though it's got its funny moments, it's definitely not "the voice of a generation" and it's pretty short-sighted and immature to classify every person who dislikes the show as "jealous" of the actress/writer. Based on what I've seen it's the story of a Mary Sue and her supporting cast, and specializes in awkwardness over actual hilarity.
I'm not a writer, but I enjoy good television, and think that the best television (i.e. the Wire or Mad Men) is as legitimate an art form as our greatest films and I love seeing talented new voices in the world of T.V. (Always Sunny being the most recent, hilarious, and brilliant example) but it's shame to see such nepotism when creators like Felicia Day or Issa Rae are relegated to self-producing web shorts.
I think all luggage, checked or unchecked, should be taken into account too- and say that the total allowed weight would be 100kg- that way someone on the chunkier side can compensate by packing less, and someone slimmer can bring a little extra for free.
I'd actually agree with ChrisLocke- the walking posture makes me think that this badger was stuffed and mounted prior to being turned into a theremin. Plus, it's a bit much to assume the badger was "tortured" prior to being stuffed- simple hunting =/= cruelty.
I don't understand this "explanation" - obviously 24 hour slave labor is more convenient to Apple execs who want to hold a factory to strict deadlines that they, themselves, wont follow... but how catastrophically would profits be affected if apple had to limit last minute redesigns, or to push back a release date? Would the entire corporation collapse? Are price points so strictly researched that Apple is certain no one would pay an extra $50 for a phone that already costs $400?
@vonskippy I also pay property taxes, yet do not have children, would you mind refunding the part of my money that subsidized your children's education?
I also only drive on a handful of the roads in my city, and visit public pools a few times per season- can I get a refund for the unused portion of those public goods?
Holly, how about if we all agree to never mention the difficulties (even the amusing ones) that come with being a parent, if you promise not to attempt to commiserate with others when you get to experience these gems for yourself! Kid poopa on the brand new sheet set you bought for the equally brand new $1300 mattress? Don't mention it on your blog! you might upset some random pregnant lady on the other end of the intertubes!
If memory serves, the madagascar institute had an enormous, crane supported baby seal pinata for flash mobbers to club about 10 years ago on Houston st.

Well, it IS a song about hunting cute little rabbits to bake in a delicious shepherd's pie!
Oh well, at least he was being honest.
