I still remember reading a Readers Digest "I survived" type story (loved those at my dentists office!) where a kayaker got attacked and the hippo's tusk was through his thigh and he was tossed around like a rag doll. When gene splicing gets here, sign me up for hippopotamus! Hippo Man, Hippo Man, does whatever a…

Honestly she seems like she would be absolutely defenseless against even a casual troll.

Is it a live set when it's during the intermission? I mean yeah it's definitely still not allowed. But the sheer balls and hilarity of that means you give it a pass I think.

You:

The fame and wealth facilitate actions and an avoidance of consequence that is only available for them.

Is a member of another oppressed minority (First Nations), I disagree quite strongly with this.

As a white person myself (who tries my best to resist the racism embedded in our society), I think the idea is not that you shouldn't delete trolls or be outraged. It's that you shouldn't congratulate yourself for it. So many white people make it about themselves by insisting that they "get it" or that they're "one of…

I guess the question is "How can white people be supportive of the issue without seeming to demean or take over the issue? " If white people don't talk talk about what they do in the situation, then the narrative is that white people are ignoring the issue (which so many do). If white people talk about the issue,…

Well, I for one applaud the NFL for finally taking a clear, aggressive, no-nonsense stand against bad PR. It is clear that the league will no longer tolerate actions by players that cause sponsors to threaten cutting business ties. Children, wives, and girlfriends of NFL players can exhale and rest easy tonight,…

Do you really need it explained to you every time you encounter a person with an unusual name or nickname? You seem to have figured out on your own that Pumpkin is a person, after all.

Let's pretend you're a network exec. If one of your radio stars tells you that he's into consensual rough sex and that allegations about his behavior are about to be made public, would you just take his word for it and say "thanks for the heads up, dude!" Of course not. You'd ask for evidence of consent, knowing that…

This is why Joe Biden is my fantasy internet boyfriend. He gets so much shit for gaffes when 99% of the time, he's the smartest and most compelling guy in the room. Of course he would say this. Of course. I love him so much.

Crush level: Knope.

I was a waitress at a restaurant. I was fairly new at the time of the incident described below.

One would hope. However my dear friend took her son out of school because his teacher would call him out, humiliate, and punish him for his tourette's syndrome.

- My co-worker who spelled tossed (as in tossed salad) "tost" and also spelled cucumber "Qcumber" in total seriousness.

I don't think so at all. The physical burden of the mattress is strenuous, sure. But think of how walking in with a mattress will disrupt every class she goes to. How much room it takes up in an elevator. How it will slow/block traffic on a stairwell. Hell, how many people will be made uncomfortable by asking…

It sounds like an open relationship as envisioned by a 12 year old girl.

It's a joke, lighten up Francis. Paultoes is good people.
