I love Skechers.

At least for now they still have to take Court seriously.

They already don't take the Court seriously. This is justified, as evidenced by their flouting Court orders with no repercussions, or running them up to the SCOTUS they own. Even if by some fluke they're actually held accountable and bow to the Court when they disagree, they can just delay until the Court's opinion is irrelevant, while they continue to do what they want right now.

They still have to pay court fees.

Eventually, which they will just put off forever.

They have to spend time defending themselves.

This is their job. Like how you and I have our jobs to go to, this is theirs.

They have to pay lawyers and outside counsel and deposition fees and a dozen other legal costs.

They just don't pay, or if they ever do, not nearly as much as they said they would, and as the literal government, they just do it with the taxes collected from you and not from their own pockets. (Which, by the way, are certainly already being lined from that same tax pool.)

They have to spend time on depositions and giving testimony.

This is the same as the previous "time" statement. Again, this is their job.


Their job is to *take, right now, and delay. As long as they can delay, run another scheme to take more, and delay on that one, too. It's like a Ponzi scheme of corruption. You know it. They know it. We all know it.

Watching people think the courts are still effective is darkly funny.

Good thing Richard Reid wasn't the Butthole Bomber.

We are all a mass of fundamental particles, each and every one pissed off at being observed by the other on this glorious day.

How did you get in my basement to put a shirt on me and take my picture without my noticing?

All attention is undesirable, so it wouldn't matter.

I need this on a shirt.

Oh there are some details left out that I desperately need to have clarified.

  • Wouldn't the cost have been the same (perhaps more) if the exact same calls were being made during the day?
  • What exactly was the bug, and how would it have been resolved?
  • Did she get "fired"?

Seems like it's not even as bad as a bee sting. Spiders are really not very dangerous at all, generally speaking. They're going to leave you alone unless you're fucking with them.
