27. My thoughts exactly, somebody's making money off of this
some big contributor must own a drug testing company. These fuckers are so transparent and predictable. This drug testing nonsense has gotten way out of hand. Did you know that they do random drug testing at Hooters? My daughter was a cook there and lost her job because she had gotten high the week before and they pulled her number for a piss test. The manager didn't want to let her go, but he had no choice. Don't you feel safe now knowing that your chicken wings weren't cooked by a pothead?
