Because the liability would be worth a lot more than the money they’d make selling them.

Smoky and the Bandit Trans Am. That movie really polished that turd.

It’s your right and responsibility as a parent to embarrass your kids.

Isn’t one of the biggest points of being a parent to embarrass your kids?

It is your God-given right to embarrass the hell out of your kids. Make them groan! Make them roll their eyes! It’s one of the great pleasures as a parent.
