This is an amazing comment. I kind of screeched?

But given what he’s tweetpologizing for, I mean, for FUCK’S sake, he could have read it before firing it off, right?

The word is “improper”. Normally I wouldn’t be pedantic about this kind of thing, but since words and their meaning of the source of the conflict here it seems important enough.

I can’t star this (why????) but yes indeed.

(extremely high pitched voice) Cedarwood and vanilla?

Speaking of reading a lot into things, the writer’s daughter is in her first year of school, and this is the 1st full week of December. Now considering that there are submission/publication schedules we’re not privy to, this letter was written at some point between the girl’s second and third MONTH of school. That’s…

I’m seeing people make the weirdest arguments here, and I think it’s because they’re seeing a false choice. Respect and gratitude are essential to any healthy relationship of course, but obligation is something different. People who find fault with this letter writer do so because she seems to believe her kids have an…

Oh no, the crying in front of the audience is so sad!

I remember this one because it was so bizarre, for a few days it affected my real life interactions with my good friend. Firstly, this was a friend I was not at all attracted to, but having sex dreams about people I don’t actually desire is fairly normal for me. What set this one apart was that in the dream, his…

The bottom line is that if you can’t do a thing unless another party does it for you, that is the definition of help. This is possibly the silliest choice of hill to die on that I’ve ever seen.

What you say at the end is true, it is a policing problem. But we have to recognize that American policing originated in, and continues to uphold white supremacy. Officers of any color can maintain this shitty status quo.

No. Because in the same sentence, she references him being a symbol to the black community. They didn’t go to the streets knowing or talking about his parents. It’s not only smearing the deceased, but the people who protested in his name.

AMAZING picture!

Innocence and socializing with the opposite sex are really really really far from being mutually exclusive.

Establishing a pecking order is a good thing? Desirable, needing to be preserved? AND uniquely male? You are a very interesting commenter.

I’m sorry, this is such a great comment, but all I can do is giggle helplessly at Dutch oven. Guess the Scout post mentally primed me for fart jokes.

Iconic.

I’m going to take your implicit advice and tell you to GET FUCKED, YOU PATHETIC TROLL rather than think about you ever again after this post.

Yep. It seems like Suzanne Collins awesomely tricked everyone into watching a powerful anti-war movie. We got swept up in seeing the people rebel, only for them to commit a bunch of war crimes to achieve their aims, leaving those who were the most involved incapable of enjoying whatever comes of their victory. It’s…

He seems to have been similary fooled by whoever told him that just saying any false thing=sarcasm.
