After a shopping spree that wouldn't leave much of a savings, and certainly not enough for a home with a back yard after she blows it all. She's obviously a dumb bitch, and deserved to be treated as such.

She got her 100 Grand. Now go home and shut the fuck up.
I really hate how people think they deserve things to be handed out and not have to work for it. He's a better thing. Tell her to get off her lazy ass and do some work instead of listening to the radio all day. What a tough life this idiot has...... And I'm supposed to feel sorry for her? I think not. I wish I were the guy that handed her the candybar. They said you'd win 100 grand. And that's what she got. There was nothing misleading about it if they never mentioned anything about winning money.
Thanks for tearing her apart like all the assholes on fark the other day. Jesus, why don't you rip her for being a single mother too or accusing her of living on welfare while you are at it? Maybe then you could get in a jab about how she must be a crackwhore too.

At least you did call her lazy and accuse her of sitting on her ass listening to the radio all day. If you RTFA, you'd see that the contest was between 8 and 10 PM, outside of 'normal' working hours. Obviously you must know quite a bit about her to make these judgements about her.

I guess you've also never heard of such things like used cars, down payments, or mortgages. The hardest thing to do when buying a house is getting a down payment together. Maybe a shopping spree to them would be 'blowing' $500 at Target on all new clothes for the kids.

The facts are simple and cannot be denied:

The radio station knew without a doubt that their stunt would only work if they knew that people would believe it was 100k, not a candy bar.

The FCC clearly outlawed contests that are misleading.
