Yes, the way she seemed to be rushing from house to house, not giving anyone time to answer before moving on made me think this was someone being pursued by a serial killer. She’s fine, he’s dead, sounds so much better that what I thought we’d hear next.

“This story is stranger, and sadder, than it initially appears.”

Um, I only listen to NPR, I haven’t been in a mall in over a decade, every store I go to usually has some very tame pop from the early 2000's or random non-rap top 40, and I use youtube for music I actually like, and I don’t think I’ve ever seen this guy in an advertisement on there. As popular as he may be (I guess…

Dude, I have teenagers with whom I have excellent relationships. I have never heard of him until this story. Then again, if it’s shitty white-guy rap, my kids aren’t interested. 

Post. As in:

“Yeah bullshit you have never heard of him. He’s been the face of generic white guy rap/pop music for 4 years now.”

It comes with Summer games I and II, and Winter games.  They just got my money...

I fully believe Alaska. The original story is only plausible to those who fly rarely or never. People get moved around all the time, and often for some jackass who shows up just as the door closes. They don’t care about your sexual preference, or romantic involvement with the person next to you - the jackass has more…

It’s not really “frist come, first served” though. If you have status with an airline (based on the number of miles you fly with them per year), you get priority over someone who doesn’t fly them regularly.

This is the only situation in which this move would be OK (and by that I don’t mean I’m personally OK with it…

I came here expecting to shit on this article, but...you right.

Yes.

I agree, that’s what it sounded like to me. Wild animals generally behave a certain way in given situations. When wild animals start acting placid, calm and friendly, that’s either a Disney movie, or what’s commonly called “dumb rabies.” (Yes, that’s a real term. The opposite is “furious rabies” which most people are…

Time is a factor. If it’s rabid, you can’t risk that sucker escaping.

Relationships are between people and individual people may have different likes, tolerances, etc. I’ve been married more than twenty years because I give my wife space to be who she is and she gives me the space to be who I am. Try it some time. It works.

For real? I can’t go out to the garage and get any number of tools that would do the job? If women are actually worried about their man or date killing them, I suggest they’ve made the wrong choices in life.

“[...] nobody would feel good happening across a gun stashed in your place, especially a woman who is anti-gun and doesn’t know you have one.”

Not true. Mass shootings are down; school shootings are down; crime in general is down to historic lows, per capita.

Well, you’re obviously a moron who doesn’t know how to read. I said they can speak about their experience and that they went thru a traumatic event.

There’s a reason we don’t allow high school kids to make national policy. While these kids can provide information regarding their personal experience going thru such a traumatic ordeal, there’s no reason to listen to them when it comes to such a complicated issue as gun rights and the 2nd amendment.

This is an excellent lesson to learn. I learned it from Pee-Wee Herman, in Pee-Wee’s Big Adventure: he’s showing off on his bike and crashes spectacularly. He stands up, straightens his jacket, and says, “I meant to do that.”

This is how I’ve lived my life ever since.
