Like I have always said...one of the truly great tragedies of life is garbage like this plopping out kids while so many loving people are unable to have any
We need fast track courts for cases like this, where they can be tried, appealed and executed in 1 week.
bump
people like this get ‘unfriended’ in prison.repeatedly.
Unbelievable.
FarmVille & Zynga keep popping up associated with evil.
What’s up with that?
Bitter irony really. All these successful and hardworking people have to pay through the nose, so they have to delay their reproducing so scum like this can have dozens, abusing one half while killing hte other half.
My sister-in-law and her husband have custody of their three granddaughters for this very reason. Both parents were so wrapped up in their video games that they pretty much ignored the girls. Even though daddy was in the military the girls had no medical care, no dental care, no school because it would have taken time away from the computer. SICK!
I wonder if this girl has some sort of brain problem, seriously. Look at her eyes, the irises are different sizes, her left iris appears to be larger, her left lid drooping.
I have a friend who is so addicted to Farmville that she flies into a rage every time I forward her a warning about the latest data harvest/privacy scandal. She has discarded a life for that idiotic pretend game, and that website.
In its defense I did enjoy meeting old playmates and classmates, but beyond an hour or two a week, it gets addictive and IMO, dangerous. I am gone from there for some time now.
Facebook, eh? How about we show the thing’s EXECUTION on Youtube!!!!
Oh don’t go making excuses for this monster.
I see many women wasting their time playing those silly FB games even after FB’s acknowledgment of the makers selling people's info.
Wonder if they're psychologically geared toward women?
I am making no excuses. She looks like she has brain pathology.
Lazy eye.
I think the penanlty for killing your own offspring like this is to have your reproductive organs all scooped out wether it be a guy or gal who does this.
And Jail time too. Lots of that too.
They want to take themselves out of the gene pool by killing their own offspring, let’s help them finish the job.

They are very much Pavlovian Reward systems that feed on the ability for humans to get stuck in postive feedback loops of “perform task, get reward”. It takes a special kind of dummy to get hooked to this sort of thing.
Familiar story, my son has custody of his kids too. The EX was an alcoholic who also lived on Farmville & would make the kids sit in front of the TV and NOT MOVE. Of course she did many other things, like adultery & DUI & group sex.
