At Nextlust, we are committed to providing our readers with the most fancy technology available at our fingertips. Unfortunately, that usually means selling your family to a loan shark and hiding in a third world country until you can lease them back. That said, tonight’s maintenance will be the first of a series of upgrades you’ll experience over the course of the following weeks. It may result in a very frustrating experience this evening, but we should have the situation under control into the late hours of the night. We apologize for the carnage you are soon about to experience as I attempt to debug my own PHP. God help us all.

Tonight’s site design is brought to you in large by the letters L.T.

Ontario Government meets Maury Povich for child support

Tuesday, February 20th, 2007

If you’ve ever watched The Maury Povich Show, you’d know that over half of the women on there are all about getting child support payments. While they’re completely shallow (and naming their kids Camerion or Dar’Tayveus – c’mon, that’s a car and a Star Wars character, for chrissakes!), they are entitled to this money to help their child. Now, the Ontario Government agrees with them.

They have recently launched the site goodparentspay.com, a place to shame negligent parents who’ve skimped on their child support. Go ahead and browse through the fine selection of deadbeats. Based on the photos, nature has made the fuckwads obvious. Regardless, though it smacks of opportunism – there’s an election coming in the fall, doncha know – the internet seems to be the best way to communicate with the largest audience. However, is this really the best way, especially from an official government site? Or is a trip to New York’s Hotel Pennsylvania a better bet?
