Well hot damn, that means when I get lung cancer from smoking all these
years that I can sue the people who made them! It's not MY fault that I
bought them in the store, not my fault I lit a bunch of crushed up plants
held together with chemically treated paper, which the paper is held round
with glue, then stuck the fiberglass type material in my mouth and sucked
on it while the opposite end was glowing red. Woohoo, using SaTaN, ahem,
excuse me, s8n's, logic, I'm bound to be a millionaire.

OR

when you grow up you'll be able to tell the difference between right and
wrong, between knowing what's the correct course of actions without someone
telling you what they are. Or maybe some other kid wanting to blame
everyone else for thier bullshit will shoot you (so they can be as cool as
the "gangsta's") and your parents can sue the company that made the gun.
(since it won't be the kid who pulled the trigger's fault, no need to even
put him in jail)
