"gome alone"? Bad spelling, kitty!
 
2002-07-23 09:54:53 AM
Hehe. Gome.
 
2002-07-23 09:55:13 AM
Did he post the link too?
 
2002-07-23 09:55:26 AM
Must be something wrong if he subscribed to Time. 4 times.

There's nothing like a nice snappy tagline.
 
2002-07-23 09:56:37 AM
The telemarketer then called the police.


Did the police buy subscriptions too?

Gome Alone was much funnier than Gome Alone II: Gouse Party

Leaving kids alone isn't child abuse! Who wrote that sorry excuse for a headline?

When will mothers learn to tell their kids to say Mom is in the shower and not mom abandoned me with my little baby brother.
 
2002-07-23 09:58:50 AM
The 5 year old was a gnome? Is that what it said? What is the world coming to?? OOOHHH, the humanity!!
 
2002-07-23 09:59:33 AM
Purple walrus I hope that was flame bait, but you honestly think a 5 year old is capable of watching a 1 year old?

stupidity is americas most plentiful natural resource ->
 
2002-07-23 10:00:14 AM
People, it's obviously a typo.

They meant to say Gomer Alone.
 
2002-07-23 10:00:35 AM
Finally a telemarketer does a good thing. At least the mom left them alone at home and not in the car.

How many gome runs has Sammy Sosa hit this year?
 
2002-07-23 10:03:04 AM
It's not freakin' child abuse... Endangering children? Yes, that is what the article said and I agree... The headline on the other hand said "child abuse"
 
2002-07-23 10:03:04 AM
Folks..it's NY home of the idiot, remember? People that elected Schumer and Hillary... What do you expect? They aren't real smart up there are they?
 
2002-07-23 10:03:38 AM
LMAO

Gome Alone: Gomer's lost years after he left the Marine Corps.

The single funniest thing I've read on fark in a LONG time.
Thank you, Cleveoh.
 
2002-07-23 10:05:28 AM
excessive title huh?
 
2002-07-23 10:06:15 AM
Were they gome alone in Devner?
 
2002-07-23 10:06:24 AM
So endangering children isn't a form of abuse?

I'm missing your logic.

It's called neglect which is a form of abuse. Leaving a 5 year old to take care of a 1 year old is reprehensible.

hey...not all NY'ers are so stupid...most people in my county didn't vote for our wonderful senators.
 
2002-07-23 10:07:07 AM
Oh, that's right... you don't have any.
 
2002-07-23 10:07:13 AM
I'm glad I signed up for the NY's do-not-call registry. I might have gotten busted for abandoning my kids. Of course, I lock them in the bathroom where there's no phone, so I guess it doesn't matter.

Wait, I don't have any kids. shiat, I gotta go feed my dog now.

I like the Click here to nominate someone for a Liberty Medal link at the bottom.

"Wow. What a heroic telemarketer. She deserves a Liberty Medal. Now, if only there were some kind of easy internet link enabling me to nominate her for one."
 
2002-07-23 10:17:24 AM
Oh please, she left the kids $40 for pizza and a handgun for protection. They were fine.
 
2002-07-23 10:18:26 AM
I wouldh've liked to be left home alone at that age, since I wouldh've learned to care for myself at an early age. Stupid American laws, it's a good thing I don't live there.
 
2002-07-23 10:19:03 AM
What's the matter there's only 4 years between them. If she was 40 and her brother was 36, would ther be a story? NO! It's all about perspective!
 
2002-07-23 10:20:37 AM
Nightsweat--Mom, is that you?
 
2002-07-23 10:22:10 AM


I'd change the H to a G, but I don't feel like it.
 
2002-07-23 10:22:30 AM
Great...now telemarketers will use this to justify their pathetic profession...
 
2002-07-23 10:23:25 AM
Damn guys, what if she had just gone to check the mail, borrow a cup of sugar...etc.? Sometimes you people embarrass me for being such idiots. Get the whole picture before jumping on the sanctimonious bandwagon.
 
2002-07-23 10:23:34 AM

Sorry I had to do it
 
2002-07-23 10:24:08 AM
Hellifiknow, Rebeccahines:- Don't know what you're talking about. The mods have got in their delorean, Flown backwards round the world, and history has been rewritten. Lois Lane is alive, Marty McFly has his SUV, and I didn't fark up.
 
2002-07-23 10:24:11 AM
So this justifies telemarketing? Uh oh.

We just want to protecr the children while encouraging you to seitch to AT&T
 
2002-07-23 10:24:20 AM
damn you BigPimpin
 
2002-07-23 10:24:57 AM
heheh

BigPimpin It's not the size of the Image Posted....It's the, the, well...Dammit
 
2002-07-23 10:28:27 AM
I would just like to draw everyone's attention to the fact that I said the 5 year old is a gnome...get it...gnome, it's funny...the litte kid is a gno...oh, forget it
 
2002-07-23 10:28:37 AM
Dammit BigPimpin, beat me to it. :-)
 
2002-07-23 10:29:41 AM
In fact, all the mods have to do now is fix the headline, and nobody is going to know what the hell any of us have been talking about.
 
2002-07-23 10:30:04 AM
Bah...I guess New York is the hole I thought it was :-) (J/K!!!!)

At least she didn't leave them in a car or feed them rat poison or anything....
 
2002-07-23 10:31:04 AM
It's abuse because of the potential danger. A few years back a woman left her 5 year watch her 3 year old and the house burned downed and the baby died. The 5 year old set the fire, blamed Beavis and Butthead (a show he never even watched) and MTV took the blame. You do not leave small children home alone. This is neglect plain and simple.
