At the United Way in a fairly small town a volunteer worker noticed that the most successful lawyer in the whole town hadn't made a contribution. This guy was reportedly making about $600,000 a year so the volunteer thought, "Why not call him up?"
He called the lawyer."Sir, according to our research you haven't made a contribution to the United Way, would you like to do so?"
The lawyer responded, "A contribution? Does your research show that I have an invalid mother, who requires expensive surgery once a year, just to stay alive?"
The worker, feeling a bit embarrassed replied, "Well, no sir, I'm..."
"Does your research show that my sister's husband, was killed in a car accident? She has three kids and no means of support!"
The worker, feeling even more embarrassed at this point, replied "I'm terribly sorry..."
"Does your research show that my brother broke his neck on the job, and now requires a full time nurse to have any kind of normal life?"
The worker felt completely humiliated at this point, and said "I am sorry sir, please forgive me..."
"The gall of you people! I don't give them anything, so why should I give it to you!"

What the hell is with these strange analogies of yours, willow. Just stick to insulting me. At least those, I can comprehend.
Are you the frog? The turtle? Both? What the fuck?

Damn, if I made that much money I could be an asshole, too. I'm already an asshole, but if I made $600,000 a year, I'd be an asshole that could get away with stuff.
Meh. I've worked very hard to earn what I earn today. As far as I'm concerned, everyday I get up and go to work I'm contributing to my personal charity.
All lawyers are assholes, more so, those who can make $600,000 per year. Even the President makes only half the amount. These lawyers squeeze everyone's balls and tickle their own.
