Mustn’t exploit chids

Considering that summer lasts about 22 minutes on a space station, shouldn’t camp be over by now?

Pam has been overworked taking care of the bunch of children running that station, let alone her own.

“But…But…where’s the “Toast App” on that thing??"

Why, yes. There is such a law. It says I can’t pay you.

Learning to toast bread is the first step to making a lot of dough. But first you have to develop a thick crust.

“Isn’t there some kind of child labour law?” Hah, try telling that to Winky and Dr. Mel.

“chid”?

“Yes, but it has no teeth; they just chide you for promoting ignorance and poor spelling.”

I grew up with child labor laws. The laws when I was a child were that I had to mow the lawn, take out the garbage, do the dishes…

Child labor laws don’t apply if you don’t pay the child anything…

Why, yes, there is, but since you are only a lowly child, and not an exalted chid, they don’t apply to you.

As a single male in his late 120s, I have difficulty with cooking. For instance, how do I boil the water to add to my saucepan so that I can bake my spaghettis?
