And, seriously, while they're at it, get insurance companies to support BC on a larger scale.

NO SHIT! I pay $47 a month and I'm on it for medical reasons. Insurance covers nothing... not even my damn $900 knee brace I was supposed to get.

Oh, but you know birth control just means everybody will be more promiscuous and therefore increase abortions

*kicks people*

LOL! With the effectiveness rate of BC, I'm not sure how many abortions would even need to take place. Insurance companies are out to get women.

Sorry, and I'll be more than happy for you to correct me, but I can't find anywhere in your posts that you have said 2.13 plus tips is inadequate. All I can find are your statements that waitresses make 2.13 and that 2.13 is inadequate-- period.

It's alway possible that we misundertand what someone else has written on a board like this, but it's also quite possible that, assuming you meant what you say you meant, you did not say it nearly as clearly as you think you did.

Also, I didn't call names, I asked if you were retarded, which isn't any worse than you insisting that I have no reading comprehension.

Bull. You didn't ask if she was retarded (which would have been bad enough), you asked: "Are you a retard?" If you don't think that's name calling, then I simply don't know what to say.

(And either way, yes, it is worse.)

I'm sure MysticCat Jr's got some wise words to impart about name-calling. Care to enlighten us??

You're all acting like a bunch of bunglicks.

Well, he knows there will be a consequence if he calls anyone stupid, an idiot or the like. (And he's always looking to catch his sister in the act.) I'm starting to try to work with him on the difference between insults and trash talk -- information every boy needs.

His current favorite insult is "bongo belly." But he's also working on comebacks: "I know you are, but what am I" and "well, that may be your opinion, but it doesn't look like anybody cares about your opinion."

That last one is awesome

My dad's got a good one for him: Opinions are like butts[edited for the discerning 8 year old], everyone's got one, and they all stink.

The "I'm rubber and you're glue and whatever you say bounces off of me and sticks to you" is a classic as well

Tee hee, the bunny pic is always fun.

AlphaFrog · #**119** 08-22-2006, 02:17 PM

It never gets old either.

I wonder if the bunny gets min. wage.

/Just so we're on topic.

In Answer to your question, no where!!!!!

Minimum wage is nothing but a politcal ploy to say the least.

If you do not work for what you are paid, then leave!

If you work hard, then you will be paid!

The mind set of todays Youth and people are over stated for what the hell they are worth!

Either work or dont work.

The intelligence of todays youth is like a walnut. It is hard and stupid!

I am a small business owner, and my one employee is paid $7.25 an hr.

I would love to give him a raise as now He makes more than I do, but He comes in late, or not at all as He has problems. Should He call? Hell Yes. Does He No!

So who works? Me! What if I have things that I need to do?

Screw Minimum wage! If you work and show a good job, there will be a raise. If you dont, then get paid for what you are worth!
