It’s like sloths throwing marshmallows.

Not calling out Sam Bee here, but wanted to get something off my chest: I’m always a little disgruntled when “thoughts and prayers” get mocked and derided in the wake of a shooting. My church (hippie dippie New England Episcopalians) formed a Gun Reform Legislation Committee after Newtown—we have teams of callers who…
I’d invite you to my Facebook feed, where super-moms chat AT LENGTH about the wraps they have for baby-wearing. They also discuss the horrifying monsters who put their babies in cribs, which is exactly what Hitler would have done if Hitler were a terrible mother and not a dictator.
My reaction to the judgment of the mom is summed up by the Just World Fallacy. If I can find a way to blame the mom, then I don’t have to think about the fact that something like this could happen to my child.
Every comments section on any of these articles (actually, pretty much every Internet post about this) has been an absolute shitpile.
Classic toddler handling. Don’t tell me you’ve never done it.
I’m so tired of this story in every single way.
So what? Who cares if a random woman isn’t appropriately contrite over a situation contriteness wouldn’t change.
I’m pretty much an atheist but you can’t shit on someone’s coping mechanism especially after a trauma. It’s what she believes and in this case, doesn’t infringe on our daily lives.
“But her apology isn’t going to do anything for your life.”
Why do people on this website hate so hard on people’s faith? Specifically the Christian faith? Any story that mentions God in the slightest is met with comments about “imaginary friends” or “sky daddies.” So fucking disrespectful. I know there are a ton of shitty “Christians,” but this lady has shown no indication…
I want to know what any one of these fucking lunatics would have done if it was their child in the gorilla enclosure. I truly am devastated that the he had to be killed. It’s awful. But between that and a child being ripped to shreds while dozens of people looked on, I’m going with shoot the gorilla.
To be fair, he’s almost certainly someone with no experience being interviewed for tv who found himself on the spot after an emotional and confusing event and just kind of cobbled together some words. Turns out most of us suck shit at producing sound bites unless we practice. He also said, “it shouldn’t matter what…
Your comment reminded me of my dad. Yesterday, he went to talk to the 8th graders about Vietnam because he fought three tours there. They were learning about it in class. He was telling them about the pins on his hat and what they meant. He has a ranger pin because he went to Ranger school. He started to tell them…
*laughing softly*
I’m sure. Teenagers smell really bad.
I once watched footage of Abby sobbing over a cold meatball sandwich. She’s really unpleasant, worse than the show makes her look. I probably shouldn’t post anything too secret due to the sensitive nature of my work but yeah, let’s just say the post people really rooted for Christi.
I want Hill to file a civil suit and I want her to win. She won’t get any money out of him, but I want him to eat those fucking words.
I agree to a point, but I think there are probably just as many not-tortured geniuses as there are tortured geniuses. For every Robin Williams, there’s a Steve Martin; for every Amy Winehouse, there’s an Adele. It’s not that Steve and Adele live flawless lives, or that they aren’t surrounded by opportunists, but their…
Ummmm.........ok?
