Well...times are hard.
Whatever..., I would’ve asked for a bitchin’ ‘67 Chevy, too. But that’s just me....
“Are there any more at home like you?”
That’s Crass!
Unless, of course, the Chevy is Candy Apple Red, and has Baby Moom hubcaps from Honest Charlie’s.
Wonderful.
Candy Apple Green..., please....
NAPL!
“A California man sold his 14-year-old daughter to an 18-year-old man for cash, beer and meat — then called police when the prospective bridegroom didn’t live up to his end of the deal, authorities said Tuesday.”
“Oaxaca ya gonna keep em down on the farm
after they’ve seen LA.
Thank you , thank you, I’ll be here all week.
I’m so old,,,, I don’t think they made Candy Apple Green back when I was paying attention. 8-(
"Love for sale,
appetizing young love for sale.
Love that's fresh and still unspoiled,
Love that's only slightly soiled,
Love . . . for . . . "
Not really too funny, sorry.
Repeat after me. "All cultures are equal."
In exchange, Galindo was to pay Martinez $16,000 and provide him with 160 cases of beer, 100 cases of soda, 50 cases of Gatorade, two cases of wine, and six cases of meat...I thought the Gatorade was a nice touch.
...groan...
I hate to disagree but it sounds like the groom failed to pay the brideprice. It is against the law in California, but it isn’t the moral outrage that many are thinking. If the groom at age 18 has enough resources to pay the brideprice, than more-than-likely he has enough to sustain the bride and theoritically she won’t be still dependent on her parents. IMO, it is not morally wrong but culturally different.
No. My daughters have no such brideprice attached to them although we were once offered, or at least her brother (the freeper known as Jemians Terror) was offered, 7 pigs for our oldest (the freeper known as LionsDaughter). JemiansTerror politely referred the suitor to LionsDaughter’s even larger father.
“In the Oaxacan community, such an agreement is “normal and honorable,”
This is a friggin’ PC disclaimer! (rolling eyes) Like we must be sensitive to their “culture” - I guess because they have suffered under evil white European colonialists, or whatever/s
Close the borders! End Political Correctness and multiculturalism or the USA is finished!
would it be racist of me to say the beer was probably Corona?
He could certainly have a great wedding reception with all that.
