Somehow I don't think that lovely McD employee will be going far in life.

As if this woman doesn't have enough to contend with in her life! What an ignorant bunch of employees the Rockford IL McDonald's have working for them. She will end up with a lot more than $10 in McDonald's gift certificates.

I love how McD's thinks $10 can make up for being made to feel like a freak, not to mention violating the law. Do they do that for all discrimination suits?

"Sorry you sexually harassed. Enjoy lunch on us."

This woman is amazing! 4 boys!

"I drank my baby bottle with my feet. Nobody ever taught me how to do
it, I just did it," Larson said. "I can ride a regular 10-speed bike. I
can swim. It has not been a problem in my life at all. It didn't stop
me from having four boys. I've never dropped one of them."
