Student faces half a million dollar bill for bomb hoax

Marriage is based on love, not on how much money a woman has.

In those societies too where brides and grooms are typically some five years
of age? Typically wife's financial wealth is an important factor. Also lean
wives are much cheaper than those of robust make.

A chap went to a toy shop. A young assistant introduced him Barbies: a
riding Barbie by 19.95; a jogging Barbie by 19.95; Barbie wearing her
wedding dress by 19.95. Then the customer noticed a Barbie by 199.50. He
became curious and asked why this one Barbie is so much more expensive than
the rest of them in the stock. He was told that it is a divorced Barbie:
half of everything Ken has earned thus far, belongs to her.

It deeply hurt her pocket for 30 years. I bet he won't be proposing to
her now...


I guess marriage may be the only alternative left for her. A marriage
contract could exclude her spouse from being liable for her personal
debts, IIRC.

In the U.S. that's called a "prenuptial agreement", but why
would he want to marry her, if she's that stupid? (I know
men don't place much priority on brains in the women they
choose, but they usually don't MARRY the real dummies - not
until they hit "midlife crisis" years, anyway!)

Who is the perfect cretin who will want to keep her in these conditions? She has no money,
nothing to contribute to the marriage - only maybe children = more expenses!!


Marriage is based on love, not on how much money a woman has.

That's probably why so many marriages fail after a year or
two! "Love" doesn't remain unchanged forever - if there's
nothing else going for the relationship, there's not much
incentive to continute in it.

That's exactly the point. A woman doesn't have to be an Nobel prize
winner, but there is a limit to how much dumbness is tolerable.

Most of us -- including the intelligent and the worldly wise -- have
done really stupid things in our lives, and most of us have got away
with little or no harm done. I am not a better person simply because I
got away with the stupid things I have done (I got away with most of
them, anyway, and where I didn't, the consequences were not too dire).

All we know about this woman is that she did one really stupid thing,
got found out, and is facing awful consequences. She might be
intelligent, beautiful, interesting, charming -- we don't know (and
she might be otherwise, but we don't know that either).

Do people really feel better when they denigrate other people?

If she was intelligent she would have said "No" to those holidays. Simple as that. Even a
baby can say "no"!

Do you mean to imply that you have never done anything stupid?

Even a non-Christian can see wisdom in the advice that she who is
without sin may cast the first stone.

I think this is more a sad story than anything else. She saw herself
as being in an awkward situation and made a very bad decision on how
she might extricate herself from it. The consequences were, I suppose,
inevitable.


A sick favorite aunt might have been better if she had run out of grand
parents.

Indeed. I expect that she has since then thought of similar harmless
strategies, and regretted her chosen one. I can almost imagine the
sense of panic that led to her making such a bad choice.

With the possible exception of Ado Annie in the musical
"Oklahoma". :-) (The character who sings "I'm jest a gal
who cain't say no" - but it got her into trouble, too.)
