Darwin Awards Nominee?
I see this kind of crap on a weekly basis.
AL (WAFF) - A woman was arrested after police discovered a teenager inside a cardboard box on the roof of a vehicle.
So what would posses someone to do such a thing?
Because it "wouldn't fit in her minivan."
Never heard of breaking it down and assembling it later, I guess. I'm amazed that children who have parents like this ever survive to adulthood.

As the mother of a teenager, I can tell you in no uncertain terms that I highly approve of this action. Any mother of a teenager knows that it's not like having a 6-year-old, where you can just threaten to leave them by the side of the road and they will believe the threat. Oh no, with a teenager, you have to make good on it. If you leave them by the side of the road, it's gonna cost you money, time and trouble, so bravo to this woman for her creative thinking. If it weren't for those fucking meddling passerbys, she probably could have had the first peaceful and quiet drive home she's had in a month of Sundays.
I guess next time she'll have to learn the ol' duct tape trick; that one's a favorite of my dad.
Teenagers should practice being more likeable if they don't want to be considered expendable.
Now, people driving off with perfectly cute babies on the roof of a car, that's a different story.
Where I live, the SOP is to leave your cute baby in the 120 degree car while you go for a mani/pedi.
I seem to recall something about a parent being arrested for locking their teenager in the trunk of the car as punishment.
Yeah, people do that here, too.** Mind you, they manage to take their purse and their keys with them, but they seem to have forgot that they have produced offspring.
It's cunts like that that haven't gone through 36 hours of labor. Let me tell you, once you have gone through 36 hours of labor you're not ever fucking likely to forget that you've had a kid.
**Almost forgot I moved, there. It's bizarre here, Stepford suburbia, even, but the cashiers are pleasant and, get this, when you buy something from a store, the workers actually look you in the eye, and they aren't having a really important loud conversation about their baby daddy with the checker 2 lanes over. I don't know what to make of it because, obviously, they're all still cunts, but they're polite cunts. I think I may be happy. Barring the part where we're living with my parents, of course.
I don't think I'd know what to do if cashier 1 wasn't having a loud conversation with cashier 2 in either Ebonics, Creole, or Spanish.
It's not a gated community is it? Because those are just sick and wrong. And, wow! Your parents are still(?) married(?) to each other?
You pretty much just hope that you get the right change, since their conversation is more important than you.
No, it's not gated, it's nowhere near that posh. It's like that X-Files ep with the Mud Monster, what is it, "Arcadia"? Everybody's got Code Enforcement on their speed dial, because gods forbid someone doesn't take their trash cans in the minute after the trash comes.
And yes, they're still married. And to each other. And they were even married before they had me (although my mom's pretty sure she got knocked up with me on her honeymoon night, having been unfamiliar with sex and contraceptives and all that). Shocking, isn't it? When everyone else in the 60's were having a good time, my parents were being all boring and getting married and thing.
It might have been better had said daughter fallen off and died. Given her mother's lack of brain cells, it would be safe to assume the daughter has inherited a similar intelligence, and what good are people like this for the future of humanity?!
