Do you think my expressing empathy for Frances Bean Cobain somehow means I am not capable of coming to terms with the Trump era? Or am I reading too much antagonism in your reply?

As I said to someone else, it does not surprise me at all that the kind of person who’d pull a stunt like this is also the kind of person who’d be an abuser. I’m so sorry your husband had to go through that.

They don’t have to be, though. You can try to be a reasonable adult about things, it is technically possible.

I’m sorry to hear that you’ve gone through this.

It’s really such a dick move to keep someone’s dead dad’s guitar, I honestly can’t believe it.

Please god, please rain blessings down upon these special people. Please, never let them know hardships or difficulties, as that will only serve to dampen their inner light. Please continue to allow these people to walk a sweetened path, without need for self-reflection or deeper consideration of any topic. Please…

My dogma? Dude, you’re the one sending me a full paragraph of exclamation points and feelings because I mildly pointed out that speculating on whether a stranger has a drug problem is kinda gross.

No, everyone understood that you were trying to insinuate something nasty, the replies you got were people refusing to play that game with you.

My roommate is also a big fan of Halo Top, and she swears that it just depends on the flavor. I’m not sure I buy that any Halo Top flavor could ever be as good as any real ice cream flavor, but I can buy that some flavors are pretty decent.

You’re good, I feel you.

Right, because domestic violence is really only a ~*~women’s issue~*~

Lmao, I had totally forgotten that!

Crazy Ex Girlfriend had a good abortion plotline IMHO. Not angsty or overdramatic, just a character trying to decide on what is right for her. She uses the pill, IIRC, and it’s pretty lowkey.

I mean, this happened to me once, in that I bought Halo Top thinking it was like fancy bougie ice cream, got home and started eating it, and then was totally perplexed as to why it tasted crappy. Found out like two weeks later that it was diet ice cream and said “Oooooooohhhhhh...” But I wasn’t about to sue anybody…

I usually have the opposite feeling, in that I lead a fairly conflict-free life so when I watch TV shows where the main relationships have lots of drama or conflict I start to feel like the writers are just making up bullshit to fill plots, and it irritates me.

Fox has cancelled so many really good shows that I will never trust them. Specifically, for me, I’m still pissed about Firefly, Dollhouse, and Futurama. I worry about Bob’s Burgers constantly for this reason.

College aged people are in the armed forces so this is an outrageous suggestion.

I think you might enjoy this article.

It was such a douchetastic explanation too. Like if you’re just not into a sex act, fine whatever (not engaging in oral would probably be a dealbreaker for me, but if his wife doesn’t mind that’s her business), but then he had to go invent a whole life philosophy about why she doesn’t *deserve* it because of her…

YUP. Being a waitress made me want to start smoking; my smoker co-workers were the only ones who got a freaking moment of peace. I tried going outside for what I called “fresh air breaks” for like 5 min every hour or so (aka equivalent to a smoke break), but without a cigarette in hand my boss wasn’t havin’ it.
