done is shit in the punch and after the world has complained, they scoop out the turds and run the beverage through a couple of weakass coffee filters....whereupon they advise us "Drink up--it's tasty!"

Yeah. Right. Please!

I was born at night but not last night. They need to stop airing ads and put that money towards MORE clean-up, that they will continue to do so long as they remain incorporated.


Without expecting a pat on the back for cleaning up the damn mess they made.

Hi. we're BP, and yes, I know we fucked up, and fucked up the lives of millions of people who live and work on the Gulf. We thank you for NOT nationalising all of our American assets, yankng our business charter, and putting all of us in Federal Prision (as would be your Right). We will work dilligently and humbley at the cost of as much of our own obscene profit as it takes to see that the problem we created is fixed, and we will continue to keep you informed of our progress until it is done.
