Dead Newborn Baby Found in Amazon Warehouse in Bathroom Trash Can


Horrible, but why do company spokespeople always sound they're trying to hide the truth, even when it's likely the company is not in any way at fault?
It sounds shitty, but this is pretty much a canned response every business entity gives when something happens on their property or to one of their assets. They're just legally protecting themselves and their employees in the absence of facts concerning the matter.

Posting this because I recall some discussion of the original incident over at the old sLUniverse forum, when there was some doubt about whether the explosion was a terrorist incident. Turns out it was an insurance scam: Blast was 'white collar' mass murder
Well that's horrific. Killing 5 for the sake of £100,000 per murderer?

Possibly so, but I struggle to believe that an English court would hold that any civil liability attached to parties in the dispute who had followed all their necessary legal obligations. "The architects and developers should have realised that the government safety regulations were inadequate" wouldn't, at least in my opinion, be at all successful as an argument in court.
Obviously they need to find a way to sue them in the US.

>> Baby Hitler was a baby.

Also, Hitler.

Next up, how is it that dumb political pundits are dumb. But mainly, political pundits.

Reporting my first temporal excursion since joining IATT: have just returned from 1936 Berlin, having taken the place of one of Leni Riefenstahl’s cameramen and assassinated Adolf Hitler during the opening of the Olympic Games. Let a free world rejoice!

Back from 1936 Berlin; incapacitated FreedomFighter69 before he could pull his little stunt. Freedomfighter69, as you are a new member, please read IATT Bulletin 1147 regarding the killing of Hitler before your next excursion. Failure to do so may result in your expulsion per Bylaw 223.

Take it easy on the kid, SilverFox316; everybody kills Hitler on their first trip. I did. It always gets fixed within a few minutes, what’s the harm?

Easy for you to say, BigChill, since to my recollection you’ve never volunteered to go back and fix it. You think I’ve got nothing better to do?

That's right, ladies, what makes you female is that you are a sperm receptacle. :3
So good to know I'm not a woman... I mean, I still have ovaries, but no connection to the outside, and no uterus to carry product of said exchange.

By the way, the definition of woman as parts that aren't too uncommon to have removed at some point because of health issues is one of the worst things these asinine idiots perpetrate. That only for as long as we can have children do we have value. Their moms should have had abortions >.<

Woman Drunk On Vanilla Extract Charged With Driving Under the Influence: Police
New Canaan police found 50-year-old Stefanie Warner-Grise sitting in a car at an intersection with her eyes closed at about 4:45 p.m. Wednesday.

Officers say they found several bottles of pure vanilla extract inside her vehicle.

They say they detected an odor of vanilla on her breath, her speech was slurred and she was unable to answer basic questions.
Must have been some baking party.
