    Chen, 23, who has worked as an injection-mold operator at the factory since it opened in 1996

    Wait, how is this possible?

        14 year olds in factories used to be a punchline. Now it’s just par for the course in some parts of the US

    The best Onion article I’ve read so far. I do not care if the article was or not written in 2005, I will asume it was wrote this year because I laughed my ass off when I read that Chen was 23yo and started to work at the factory in 1996.

        Fun fact: from another post I just learned that sex toys are a really booming domestic market in China at the moment.

    I use my two holders twice a week. It sucks building three perfect crunchy tacos and then they fall over and everything spills out.
