How could someone do this?

Well, a 1 year old girl won't explode if jostled.

I don't know. I had a bit of a temper when I was 1.

No, but a king who's been dead a week and out for summer viewing before burial will.

Sorry, that's kind of out of place, but I could think what else to add except "Wow people are dumb" and a lot of people will say that.

Yea...not much discussion or dissent on this topic is likely to occur.

Feel free to derail as necessary!

Indeed.
*Everyone* knows that you have to put the beer on top of the kid before doing up the seat belt. That way, the beer is cushioned the most from the jostling and bumping that comes along with driving while drunk.

They're complaining that the child didn't get a beer?!? Animals!!!

lol, they left out that she did get the baby high first, so she figured it was cool.

As long as no squirrels were put in jeopardy, I really don't see what all the fuss is about...

Proper car seat usage is one of my "things", so I'm going to hold my tongue. It's very hard, though.

Poor William the Conqueror. He probably would've been fine if they hadn't shoehorned him into that sarcophagus when his body clearly wasn't going to fit.

I love that story by the way.

Oh man, so do I. I count all those bishops and cardinals and lords as having "jostled" him. Just a liiiitttle too much.
