Operation Foundling - Child Care Made Simple
Source: ABC News

A new invention's just come out that's sweeping the nation of Germany. They call it "Operation Foundling" or the "Baby Bank," but it's not like a regular bank. Instead of keeping your money in it, you sneak in at night, drop your baby in a box, and escape into the shadows. It's a metal slot outside a clinic where mothers can abandon their children "safely and anonymously" with none of those rude questions they ask down at the circus. According to one inside source, though, the babies never reach the clinic. No, they go somewhere far more sinister.

When the German mother is blocks away, the memory of their child already fading, their former mistake is flying down a series of secret high speed tubes that lead to an underground arena. This arena is called Babycade. Thousands of spectators cheer from the bleachers while the holographic image of Tina Turner floats in the center of the ring. "Welcome, babies! To BABYCADE!!!!" she shouts. A wicked look comes across her face as she adds the line that makes the crowd go crazy, "I know you won't break the rules, babies. THERE ARE NONE!!! Ha ha ha ha ha!"

And while the event is advertised as "No Holds Barred," there are actually several rules including no fish hooking, tickling, spit bubbling, or doodie-ing in their diapers. All of these guidelines are explained to the babies by special ringside infant translators that hold them close to their faces and coo nonsense at them until they giggle. Then they're unleashed until the killing blow lands. Winners are raised to unimaginable levels of baby glory, while losers are torn apart and made into clothes by the mysterious mole people who emerge when the lights and noise of the arena have died down. Heed this warning, traveller. The Babycade doesn't get any safer after the fighters go home.

HOW IT WORKS: The slots where unwanted future warriors are dropped off are called "Foundling Letterboxes", and the creators are very excited to point out that mothers can approach them without being watched by cameras*. When their mistakes are flushed away, a silent alarm is tripped and a camera is turned on to monitor the baby. "We're hoping for more funding soon," says a spokesman for Operation Foundling. "After that, we plan on getting more cameras, but even better cameras that are shaped like cockroaches so we can sneak them in to watch people on toilets or in changing rooms when we don't need to be monitoring babies." He added, "We're here to help the mothers, but we still like to watch them pee sometimes."
* any moreso than how much the NSA normally monitors us. Oh, and just to make sure they're reading this right now: "President assassination with ceramic pistol marijuana shipment border rectal airport smuggling."

Other benefits of further public funding will be a higher quality of combatant costumes. Some gladiators are forced into wearing old pajamas and train conductor costumes due to lack of fashion budget. With your support, we can bring even more deadly action with leather jumpsuits, rhinestone capes, pyrotechnics, and a troupe of dancing bikini babies.

That that is funny stuff and I see no reason why it should be filtered as "Tastless".


Who is websence to judge? I can make up my own mind.

To Brad:


The second one. Solid black rims just make it look as if the rims are dirty from brake dust.

The Brad 11-02-2006 01:28 AM

I need monies. :(
But I don't want a dumb $8/hr job. :\

Aerodyne 11-02-2006 01:29 AM

Then you must not want the money bad enough. Now get your *** out on that corner and start making me some money bitch!

:lol:

But seriously. . .

The Brad 11-02-2006 01:32 AM

Well I mean, to drop out of school for $8/hr is dumb imo.

Aerodyne 11-02-2006 01:34 AM

Oh, definitely. I wasn't really paying attention to what was happening before I walked in, I just wanted to exert my pimp hand on someone.

ebe9 11-02-2006 01:35 AM

[quote=The Brad;13554085]Well I mean, to drop out of school for $8/hr is dumb imo.[/quote]


Agreed


I made money at varsity working for a company that hired out students for promotional work, paid pretty well plus I got to do some really great promotions.

Launched the BMW 5 Series (latest one) and also the AUDI A6 (latest one), also did the ****ier ones like handing out phamplets but hey, money is money and it looks good on your CV.

The Brad 11-02-2006 01:38 AM

Ay, my pimp hand is larger than Dave Grohl's in Everlong.

The Brad 11-02-2006 01:39 AM

Bike, riding gear, new wheels/tires, stereo, other car mods.

None of it essential, of course, but GAS. Consumerism is so dumb... but got damn it feels so good (at times).

Just wait until I win the lottery. :naughty:

Aerodyne 11-02-2006 02:19 AM

I would be all over that if it was passive. I would just feel strange dropping a ****ton of money on a bass that wasn't active. :confused:

Apparenly it's just me though, every bassist on here or talkbass seems to love over-priced woods which look like the congealed bird-shít of 20 years.

Maybe not everyone, but it's a weakness of mine. I really like it.

When it actually comes down to it, I wouldn't pay for one of those ridiculous top woods because I don't really care what my bass looks like - I hardly notice the appearance when I am playing it.
