Strict Liability

Read a random definition: assessable stock

A quick definition of Strict Liability :

Strict liability is when someone is held responsible for something they did, even if they didn't mean to do it. This can apply to both criminal and civil cases. For example, if someone has a dangerous animal and it hurts someone, they can be held strictly liable for the harm caused. Some people think this is unfair, but others believe it helps keep people safe.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Strict liability is a legal concept where a person can be held responsible for their actions, even if they did not intend to cause harm. This applies to both criminal and civil cases.

  • Criminal Law: Possession crimes and statutory rape are examples of strict liability offenses. This means that a person can be charged with these crimes even if they did not know they were breaking the law.
  • Tort Law: Possession of certain animals and abnormally dangerous activities are examples of activities for which a plaintiff may be held strictly liable. For example, if someone owns a wild animal and it attacks someone, they can be held responsible for the harm caused, even if they did not intend for the animal to attack.
  • Products Liability: In the area of torts known as products liability, there is a sub-category known as strict products liability which applies when a defective product for which an appropriate defendant holds responsibility causes injury to an appropriate plaintiff. For example, if a company sells a product that is defective and it causes harm to someone, they can be held responsible for the harm caused, even if they did not intend for the product to be defective.

These examples illustrate how strict liability can be applied in different areas of law. In each case, the person or company can be held responsible for their actions, even if they did not intend to cause harm. This is because strict liability focuses on the harm caused, rather than the intent of the person or company.

I agree with @llama that the date was bad at least. Assuming llama also agrees a pitty date is bad. It was at the very least just objectification.

For situations like this, it is who of an observer to reference the wisdom found: https://bloximages.chicago2.vip.townnews.com/dailyuw.com/content/tncms/assets/v3/editorial/6/c3/6c36eaf2-acbb-11ed-87db-5b046a8de321/63ec1313c6666.image.png sometimes, it is required to us relative judgment to make a 'pivot' to a better candidate. I lay odds this is what shaq did.

@babycat: we see it here! Do not worry! And @wasp that may be true. People are usually a combo of their 5 closest friends. However, I have seen the opposite where a woman dates a guy great for her and breaks away from her group of hags. We will have to wait and see.

@Wasp burn yourself put hard for 48 hours and then reset. Do everything possible. Work out, drink, go to a $200+/person restaurant.

@KnowledgeableRitzyWasp: anytime i need to grind it out, I seek this: https://youtu.be/03cYOPQ9M5Q?t=166 for motivation. maybe it will help you as well?

@babycat: What did I say about redheads too. Gotta be careful.
ooh that’s a good idea try to grind harder and then take targeted relaxation, that’s a good idea
19:49
@babycat: please note redheads are EXTREMELY high in both hot and crazy, plus add the rarity (most rare phenotype on earth). TLDR: do not underestimate redheads
