Okay, so Lindsay Lohan doesn't really hate babies (or at least she hasn't publicly admitted it) but she is suing those gosh darn cute eTrade babies because she thinks they are making fun of her.
Bad Moms love those eTrade babies -- especially the tyrannical ones. They're hysterical. Lindsay, obviously, lost her sense of humor sometime after she stopped dating Samantha Ronson.
Really, eTrade babies are hilarious. When Gemma was a wee thing we used to make her talk in funny voices like she was our own personal marionette and that sh*t was gold. Oh how we'd laugh (mind you, the laughter was probably more due to sleep deprivation than incredible baby wit.)
But Lindsay (or at least her legal team) don't find the latest eTrade commercial funny. They claim that it depicts Lindsay as a 'milkaholic' infant even though the infant in question is only referred to by the name Lindsay (or Linsey or Lindsey or Linsay - they didn't include captions) and even though, you know, it's an infant. Her lawyers felt that the ad was 'modeled after her' and have filed a $100 million lawsuit.
Dear Lindsay: if you really are being mocked here, you should be flattered that they didn't label you a Pablum junkie.
This must be a fun side-diversion for Lindsay's legal team who generally keeping her out of trouble and / or quashing the latest antics of her father.
So what do you think? Funny or not? Defamatory enough to sue for a cool 100 million? Do you think they even meant to poke fun at Lindsay Lohan and her rehab woes? Personally I'd be flattered if the eTrade babies made fun of me but maybe that's just me. Damn, those babies are just so darn cute (how do they make them talk?)
I think she needs to quit being a whiney baby and get the hell over it. Even if they were making fun of her, she deserves every second of it!

My company does all of those commercials, so I'm biased. Fucking Hilarious!!! That's just my opinion. The footage of those kids is awesome. Actually shot them in Toronto. Lindsay Lohan is insane. Great PR though, for both sides...

It never for a moment occurred to me that they could be referring to her. Until of course she made it about her and now I'll always think of her as "that milkaholic Lindsay"

What makes me laugh about this story is that Lindsay's mother went on the record saying that the commercial in question is a child mocking a child, or something like that. Yes, Lindsay is Dina's child, but she's no child. She's in her early twenties with a rap sheet and what appears to be a substance abuse problem. She's not a child, she's a GROWN ADULT.
This whole lawsuit is absolutely ridiculous. So is Lindsay herself.

Until I read this I never equated milkaholic Lindsay with Lohan. Is she the only Lindsay in the World? Gawd lighten up, LL.

The costs to obtain a property Monster Beats Outlet Monster Beats Outlet:http://www.monsterbeatsbyddre.com/ inside the innovative Hobsonville Point suburb happen to be produced : and they are expensive. And because the households Monster Beats Monster Beats:http://www.monsterbeatsbyddre.com/ have been constructed over a shipping stamps, completely new entrepreneurs will expect a very high stop finish off in a very perfectly set up dwelling. 1 anticipated feature will be very fast connection through the household Monster Beats Monster Beats:http://www.monsterbeatsbyddre.com/ , towards net. To come, this sort of online connectivity will probably be estimated all brand new home-owners and also analogous to the increase in wires regarding residences intended for electrical energy less than Century previously. Your Hobsonville Area Enterprise (HLC) acknowledges this along with collaboration along with Vector tend to be chaotic endorsing High speed broadband Fiber in your Entry. On the other hand, Concerning affirmed in which just what the following in fact signifies would be the High speed broadband Food fibre can easily at the field at your residence ( blank ) which in turn doesn't imply top speed entry within your household!
We've informally questioned people to inquire exactly what 'High Quickness Fibre In your Door' usually means along with 'm continually advised this implies you will have high-speed in your home.

Think of the impact on an individual. A contemporary family will have a new main gadget (Xbox 360 system, home computer and so on) out of which to stream melodies and also videos with other products from the house. They are actively playing online games by using each and every, skyping friends for a online video contact, searching the net and even looking at heavens through the online (launching next week : tellingly not High when recent broadband internet rates will not likely assist High-definition). A lot of people may also work from a home office and also have supplemental ICT requires. The IT demands for the future may even raise the insert. A property hard-wired to mode access to the internet to every single area likewise varieties this anchor to be able to make it possible for all the rooms connect to one. Having said that, mobile accessibility is going to be rapidly bottlenecked. It will have a spot for wi-fi, to compliment your backbone : but it really shouldn't be the actual backbone.
Industry experts one of several Hobsonville Stage designers who explained 'they'll possibly be plenty of retailers, and most folks work with wifi anyway'. Your HLC explained that 'There isn't any prescriptive condition with regards to the internal electrical wiring much more obligation is situated with all the constructors being a standard section of the house engineering method... HLC will work together to make certain that optimization in your house amount is a component with the transport method. A
Which isn't up to scratch. The HLC currently have arranged style criteria for that builders to add such functions like a rainwater waters tank hobbyist to be used with regard to bathrooms and many others, in lessening the environmental affect. And ofcourse, the particular HLC contain the require to create high speed broadband cabling a necessity on top of a property, if you have the desire. The costa rica government gets the will probably, and are shelling out gigantic amounts for you to throw away very fast obtain, so it will be weird that the corporation set up under the govt are usually prioritising bad weather water dive bombs for a spinal column of electric as well as shops in a household. What about builders? Properly, they can be following your cheapest option and can explain to you wireless is okay : nonetheless I believe are going to be very happy to 'upgrade' your current top-of-the-range dwelling for the next fee.
Our prime rate fibre and then provides just relocated the container neck from your water piping cpa affiliate networks plus geneva chamonix transfers, for your entry.

Your plan of action after that may be to affect into the surfaces and inside ethernet cable tv.
Best places to at this point? Think about it HLC : deliver around the implied commitment of very fast online connectivity. Make it a layout necessity to be able to cable tv just about all open public, family as well as cargo area bedrooms. It is exactly what the costa rica government would like. That must be property owners need to have. RFgA9yJsN808dxBke9Tp9tBu4299
