My Spartan heart is broken for this little girl, her family, and AP. She brought so much joy and she loved so fiercely.

This breaks my heart. As an MSU alum, I'd been familiar with this story all season. Gah! So sad.

I'm so glad that Adriean Payne and MSU took the time to give her joy while she was here.

It was in midtown Atlanta. I think there was some fundamentalist revival happening nearby that summer or something, because when I visited later they were gone. And good riddance, too—these were people who thought it was cute to leave gospel tracts instead of tips. If I were a supreme deity I'd send them to hell for…

I tell Christian proselytisers I'm Jewish (I'm not), I tell Scientologists I'm declared and the Mormons won't visit me anymore. I think I'm on a list from the time they knocked just after I'd read a book about Mormonism. Poor lads, they were so happy to be invited in - then I asked them loads of questions about…

I was flying back from my Grandmothers funeral and had taken a klonopin to get over my nerves. This very normal looking guy sits next to me and strikes up a conversation. He shows me his kids little league pictures, and tells me about the chain of gas stations he owns in the south. Tells me about the nice woman he met…

That's really more of a lonely Sunday afternoon thing, isn't it? I mean, have some fucking standards.

Yes, I worked in a place that got tons of crazy fundies trying to convert the staff too. I learned very quickly not to engage them in conversation at all and just say "Praise the lord, I'm saved already! Bless you sister, keep doing God's work!" as I was running away.

I consider myself a pretty open-minded person, but my biggest red flag is when I'm talking to some guy for the first time and he says, "You seem really open-minded." Then it's decision time: I know shit's about to get weird, and I have to decide if it's going to be worth it to hear exactly where he's going with this,…

WHY ARE YOU SO CLOSED MINDED TO NOT GO HOME WITH A DEGRADING STRANGER IN A FOOD COURT ON A WEDNESDAY?

Except, the order is three appetizers. That's not a lot of food. There's no way to interpret three appetizer orders (one of which is lettuce wraps, ffs) as something only a fat person would order.

A guy once hit on me by asking, 'So, do you consider yourself open minded?' Heeeere we gooooooo! Turned out he was into degrading women during sex and thought I looked like the perfect candidate. This was a stranger in a food court at 6pm on a Wednesday.

Usually when I order chinese, I order enough for multiple meals, because I like leftovers. But I always feel bad about myself when I see how many forks and fortune cookies they include. Sometimes I yell upstairs to a fake person that "the food is here" so that the delivery person doesn't know it's all for me.

For some reason, I'm dying picturing you saying yes to two forks and then two-fisted cake eating happens.

Bad science vs. uhh.. Badder science?

You have to understand the mindset. In this person's mind that statement was no non sequitur. Brown skin, check! Latino sounding name, check! Crime, check! All of that equals illegal immigrant. . . which is the fault of progressives.

While I agree that Anti-vaccination nuts are bitchy, I doubt they would have made it this far if it wasn't such a hot topic right now. That being said, Christian conservatives have been the rightful recipients of this award since the beginning of time (so like, 6,000 years ago).

My god people like you actually exist, please for the love of humanity don't reproduce.

God help us if he wasn't shy.
