Cracked #3, so great:

“Stick to school, loser! High school sports is the way to make something of your life!”

Thing is though, we don’t pretend they don’t exist, the only thing that really upsets China is if we acknowledge their Government, which we just did. All this seems very silly to the average person, but this is just how these things work.

In point of fact, Rome built entire cities largely with slave labor. So, I’m not sure if the costs are known, at least the fair market costs.
