It looks like Aunt Flo decided to visit for her birthday.

I am sad for society because we have to find outrage in everything.

it is.

I am having a hard time understanding the mother's outrage. Her son is an adult isn't he? And in her words, "I felt hurt for my son because I know how hard he works" — he's been employed as a technician at the same heating and air conditioning company for 16 years." Which implies that he's a big boy and can take…

Are you sure that this Foundation's purpose is to provide reparations? My understanding of reparation is a form of compensatory payment for a wrong doing in the past. And is usually carried out by a government body. IE: reparations for slavery

Money isn't everything but it is when you don't have enough. So if every student was allowed the same amount of money in their account, and if you are used to spending a lot more. YOu will immediately understand class division. Your attitude can change to one of team work, (hey, let's pool our money/resources…

gratitude and compassion begins at home. a college course or seminar isn't going to change a punk ass kid's mind one way or another. there are plenty of punk ass poor kids too.

Rich kids have a lot of advantages. I see it every day living in Silicon Valley, where every 50th person is literally a millionaire. What are you going to do about something you can't change? Wouldn't you rather focus on the things can you change?

I can't say if I was or wasn't bullied. I leave it to individuals to make that decision for themselves. I will say that I was teased and there were days I wanted to cry. I can also say that I learned to adapt fairly quickly and as an adult, things rarely bother me. I don't know with 100% certainly this has any…

This is a valid point, thank you for bringing it up. However, I am not sold that a seminar or a course would change the minds of these students. It's my feeling that it takes true friendship or a life changing event, to drastically change one's point of view or outlook.

Oh please, I grew up wearing hand me downs. And I was constantly asked, "did it rain last night?" - because floods.....my pants were usually 1-2 inches too short due to said hand me downs.

Duke needs to look past its blind spot and start discussing class stratification on campus to create a more welcoming environment for poor students.

I don't how you can claim the whole conversation is about "X" because there are more than one thread attached to this article and MY thread is about the right of a company to brand through charity. I made it abundantly clear that the thread and comment was no way in defense or an argument about the offensiveness of…

I already said that my comment is not an argument on whether their team name is offensive or not. If my company's name is, I Love Cocks and I wanted to start a charity for STD prevention. Then I'm going to name it, The I Love Cocks STD Prevention Foundation. It may be ironic and absurd, but it would be my…

I don't hate him but SMA title? We should have seen the Kimye Cover coming.

I do too! One of the reasons is that there is always horse poop! The other is, if you don't know there is a parade going on, you get stuck in traffic. Parades are all around stupid now that we have the internet.

They poop in parades.

You are like the breath of a unicorn. Thank you my friend.

They shouldn't but they are. You know that charities are as much about branding as it is about giving. Sometimes more so. Even the altruistic giver still self promotes. Take the Bill and Melinda Gates Education Foundation. If they truly wanted to take themselves out of the equation, they would name it The Anonymous…

I fucking hate being forced to watch a commercial before a trailer. By definition, a trailer is a commercial and I equate this to paying to for a coupon.
