    My kid consented. I think. Can she make binding contracts that she doesn’t tell me about because she’s looking for Blues Clues, or am I responsible for every OK she checks when I’m not present?

      I let my cat step on the remote. Fucker doesn’t pull his weight, so if the lawyers come after him he’s on his own.

      Oh c’mon, apply some logic, you know logic won’t be applied, money will.
