Hundreds of kids are hospitalized and die annually from overdosing on candy-flavored OTC medications such as tylenol. That's why the bottles have child-resistant packaging and there are warnings to keep them out of the reach of children.

Maureen Dowd was told by the shop when she bought the edibles how much constituted a dose and that she would need to wait a while for the effects to kick in. She admitted to this in her followup but said that she took 4-5 times the amount the store told her to take because she "wasn't feeling anything" after a short…

This is a strawman, nobody's being required to cut a bonbon into 4-6 servings. A whole chocolate bar, yes. But those are pre-scored for dosing purposes so you can easily tell that one square = one dose, and state law limited an individual dose to 10mg of THC a long time ago. Further, the shop employees always discuss…

Newsflash: hundreds of kids are hospitalized and die annually from ingesting toxic dosages of common OTC medication, especially children's medication which are flavored in such a way to make dosing easier. Many household chemicals have tamper-resistant lids and bittering agents for that very reason, because kids get…

Exactly. The detractors going on about how this was a poor decision to select a cover where she is sexual are completely missing the point: you don't have to present yourself as an asexual person to get the point across that violating your privacy in a sexual way is wrong. She is a sexual being. She gets the choice…

Cool story.

Eh, I use the term "flounce" when someone gets huffy about something and storms off. I've never heard it used with that connotation.

What a clever response, taking exactly what I said but saying it at me instead.

Look, Brian is a guy with high standards, okay? He's no novice at sexually harassing waitresses. If he was going to sexually harass a waitress, he would at least save his time and only sexually harass the hottest, most willing of victims.

You're arguing a chicken and egg proposition here. You're claiming that tipping culture contributes to a social power dynamic, she's arguing that it's just an expression of the social dynamic. Either way, by pretending she argued something different, you're the one missing the point there. It's silly to call her wrong…

I mean it's sweet that a lot of sad women want to bang him, but he is not a 10 on any scale except "homely".

She didn't "miss the point", she's saying that it's not only limited to this situation in which the power disparity is so obvious and blatant (as in, "I PAY YOU LADY BE NICE TO ME").

Sorry you have bad taste in men.

For a second there, I read the list as though she had a recipe for marijuana and I was like "hmm do tell".

There's a movie he made about that as well, it's very good.

There are far fewer actual trolls out there than you think, and far more with genuinely shitty opinions that don't get why you're so pissed.

Oh man, Rae Carruth. Been a while since I've heard that name.

I am able to cull my list a lot, thanks Obama/Hillary/George Zimmerman/Michael Brown/Ray Rice!

D) All of the above?

Gosh that's a great point! I guess my point is invalid now that we know women can be shitty too.
