I love it when the “standard” reader response interpretation method taught in high schools ends up being shown as wholly wrong. The author threw one hell of a monkey wrench in the cheery world view didn’t she? All I can say is so much for the whole “the author doesn’t matter only the readers interpretation matters”…
It’s these little glimpses into everyone that keep me coming here. Everyone is such a fascinating collection of interesting things.
Also, every time I open my eyes, blood shoots out of them. Is this something that can wait until office hours next week?
Came here to say this: people who buy Bengals think they’re getting an awesome looking housecat, and almost always end up affronted that they end up with a deceptively cuddly-looking wild animal. It’s not even a remotely responsible pet to have around small kids.
Friends had one, and she wasn’t crazy.
That is a BEAUTIFUL cat. My god. It’s perfect.
Few things are as offensive to me as people who buy pets on a whim & at the first sign of inconvenience get rid of it. I know I’ve talked to a lot of my fellow Jezzies (off topic: what’s a male jezzie called? Is it still just jezzie?) about the HUGE problems I’ve had with my moms neighbors doing that to their pets…
Yes, they are trained from a young age to respect them and know how and when to use them. There’s a healthy sense of caution and reverence, vs. America’s gun-entitlement culture.
I’m sorry America is so fucked up. I don’t know if gun control laws can even help. It’s so much bigger than that. So much bigger. The Swiss have FAR more guns in households than Americans, yet one of the lowest homicide rates in the world. The social structure and individualistic culture of the U.S. is the actual…
To quote Deray McKesson: watch whiteness work.
And if his last name was even in the slightest “ethnic” he’d be labeled as a domestic terrorist instead of a “gunman”
Cops say he has “minor criminal offenses” on his record
Sorry, putting on a sweater doesn’t make me warm when it’s blowing frozen air at me all day. My hands feel like icicles and my feet and ankles get frozen, even when wearing calf high leather boots. Never understood why the people who are cold just have to suck it up but if anyone is hot, OMG! Turn the A/C on! You too…
This is some serious bullshit, here. I worked in an office with two morbidly obese men who insisted the temperature be kept at 65. The six women in the office were wearing sweaters and running space heaters in July. And over and over again, the argument was, you can put on more clothes. Except I can’t put clothes on…
Cold can be very unpleasant! But, also can be a source of pain or extreme discomfort for people like me who have arthritis. I am a hairstylist, I wear sweaters to work when it’s 95 outside, but because I can't cover my hands (because wet gloves that would also be cold would do absolutely nothing to help) my arthritis…
You and me both. I have intensely passive-aggressive contests with one of my beloved flatmates who likes the temperature to hover somewhere between the Arabian desert and the surface of the sun. I, being a normal, like it somewhere around 21°-22°C (aka 70°-72°F in American). So every time one of us passes the…
Girl with arthritis, here.
I get cold at 70 degrees. :|
her whole fucking career is weaksauce.
Are we all the way sure that her tweet was a “jab” at Swift? Because it could have been a jab in the general direction of the industry as last year’s VMA video of the year winner was a slim white body swinging on a wrecking ball. IJS
