They are arrogant.
They are incredibly stupid.
They do treat their customers (us) like garbage or dogs.
They have lost control of their distribution.
And to try to preserve their postions they have taken it upon themselves to
use their slimy lawyers to SUE CHILDREN!!!
They use their wealth to glorify their incestuous lack of judgement and
morality.
Now it's time for a ride on the slippery slide.

Bon Voyage
