I guess the cost of cards is too high.... whatever, doesn't matter]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[marcus]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 11th 2009 10:05PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Site Lets Parents Monitor Kids' School Lunches]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/10/11/site-lets-parents-monitor-kids-school-lunches/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/10/11/site-lets-parents-monitor-kids-school-lunches/</guid><description><![CDATA[Dear god...pathetic.  By all means use a card system, pin system, whatever system you want to pay for lunches, but do parents really need to monitor them?  Some parents are way too psychotic]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Jordan]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 11th 2009 11:06PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Site Lets Parents Monitor Kids' School Lunches]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/10/11/site-lets-parents-monitor-kids-school-lunches/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/10/11/site-lets-parents-monitor-kids-school-lunches/</guid><description><![CDATA[Jordan, I was reading through the comments you've made on various Apple-related sites, and what I've come up with is that you're a supreme asshole, and very uninformed.  For instance, you make a dozen or so references to Snow Leopard/Leopard/Tiger being even remotely related to the buggy garbage that was Cheetah and Puma. Every version of OS X prior to Tiger was utter garbage, but it was what Apple needed to do to get past OS 9, they needed a reinvention when they hit a wall.  Now, specifically regarding this post, which you call "pathetic," how do you think I feel with a special needs child in a public school system?  I have the choice of either sending him to school with a PB&J every day, or putting money in his account for lunch.  Without fail, he goes through that account money in double time because he has no self control (read: autistic 8 year old) and the lack of regulation and monitoring keeps us from being able to limit the dollar amount he spends per day.  I know that this system can be misused as the school I attended in high school had this system and yes, my parents were psychotic control freaks, but the system can be used for good as well.  I know that, as a Windows promoter you have a hard time seeing things from different perspectives, but try to take different situations into account before running your mouth about things that don't concern you.  Also, I'm a Mac technician and user, but don't respond about how Windows 7 is amazing. I've used it (the beta program).  It's decent. But it's still Windows and can't do things the way I want it to. I also have 13 years of Windows tech support experience. Tool.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[kevin.weber]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 15th 2009 12:17PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
