Frequently, I will mention businesses that I like or dislike. Occasionally, I will comment on or review a product. For some stupid fucking reason that I will never understand, the nanny state that we call America requires me to disclose if I was compensated in any way for such comments. I wasn't. Go piss up a fucking rope, you useless bureaucratic asshole.-
