Karma - she's a muthafuckah

OK, so y'all know I work for an insurance defense firm, right? If not, now you do. So here I am paralegalling (it's a word, bitches) my ass off in DEFENSE of insurance companies. DEFENSE. As in on their side. As in high fiving with the insurance companies over us collectively beating down bogus claims.
So I get a call from my husband a bit ago from the insurance company. He had to go pay our homeowners and flood (because I live in the soupbowl of Louisiana) insurance prior to closing. No problemo. He gets there cashier's check in hand for the full amount. "Oh, Mr. SFG, I think the quote we gave you for flood might be wrong." WHAT??? We close in less that 48 hours. Um, rrrrrriiiiiiigggggghhhhhhhhhhttttttt. You can't just void a cashier's check. So he sits there and ends up having to hash it all out with them (keep in mind that tonight is his sister's wake so he could possibly be a tad distracted) but finally gets it all straightened out. When he called me to tell me the problem before he fixed it, I went off SLIGHTLY. The word "fuck" and its various derivatives (fucking, what the fuck and my fave fucktard) may have been thrown around with callous disregard to any poor soul who happened to pass by my office during my tirade. So now in my head insurance companies suck. They may pay my paycheck indirectly but they suck large donkey dick.
I have tried to come up with something worse than insurance companies to defend and I came up with the following:

1. defense of Nazis
2. defense of those who run puppy mills
3. defense of those who love Tom Cruise
4. defense of women who insist on wearing stretch pants when clearly their stretch pants days are decades ago (as should be stretch pants but let's not get greedy)
5. defense of naturally skinny people who "just can't gain weight"

Feel free to add your own.
