texas

as a resident currently under the abbot/paxton regime, I have to ask, what's their angle?

I still stand firm behind my desire to find the tree that fell on abbot, and turn it into toothpicks for only doing a half assed job.

This reads a lot like Them Chinese are spying on us through the TV!

Also, just drop the tree on him again

It's not the tree's fault that evil needs a double-tap

Yeah, that's why they didn't include Vizio, and their TV's are entirely unusable unless you sign up and give them permission to spy on you in every way possible.

The good ole well it's okay when Uncle Sam does it.

Honestly not surprised

Before we wall the tree, do we know he’s not just making up the tree fall to cover up something ridiculously embarrassing?

[–] microfiche@hexbear.net 12 points 3 months ago (1 children)

That tree falling on him set him up for life. He was an out of work law student or graduate or some shit when it happened.

It's estimated he received very low double digit millions; a lump sum and then monthly payments with cost of living adjustments.

Then, he helped to usher in tort law reform that eventually capped the very damages he was allowed to recoup. His won millions are now capped at 250k. 250k can get eaten up with just one bad hospital stay - I had two surgical procedures last year after I hit my health insurance deductible, and both stays and procedures ran something like 170k-ish.

God, I wish someone would push him down some stairs

He snapped his spine trying to suck his own dick
