So what you're saying is that I have to date 36.8% of the females on earth? Challenge accepted.

Is 20+ weddings in 30 years even that much? I'm only in my mid 20s and have just started the wedding boom and I feel like I'm pretty close to that...

EVERYONE is a serial wedding guest before AND after they're married. How is this a thing to talk about? I can't tell if this is a "woe is me I'm not married yet" or a "I'm sick of paying for other people's weddings" or a "I'm so awkward that public gatherings make me uncomfortable" post, but if it's such a problem,…

As I was reading, I thought, "Well, this is nicely written and all, but it's a bit of a stretch to make a whole article out of it..." Then I saw the Amazon link.

No offense to the author but this is one of those times where I'm like, "Well hell if they'll give you a book deal for that..."

My god. Thank you for sharing your story. And thank you for being honest about the pressure to have a so-called thick skin when it comes to degrading, sexist, and sometimes violent behavior. We've been taught for so long to just take it. All of it.

Everything in small proportions?

This story is about something sad and ableist that happened to a little girl. I don't think it's appropriate to make this about pro vs. anti-pitbull people (I mean do whatever you want, but it's kind of a sad reaction to the story. It just ends in fighting in the comments). Besides, you will never change each…

It's a concern with franchising in general- the KFC corporation doesn't own that store or have any control over who it hires. But part of what makes the enormous sum that the franchisee pays in order to use that name worth it is that they get the PR and legal support here of the corporation when something goes awry. …

That's some Grade A bullshit behavior right there. Someone needs to give that employee a wet backhand and an atomic wedgie.

Fuck those people. What kind of cruel monster would do say such a thing to a child? It's so sad that this little beautiful girl has already convinced herself that she's "ugly"! Fuck those people, seriously!

I'll admit it, I was the one who complained. I just expect my fellow KFC customers to be people I consider aesthetically pleasing, all right?!?!?!? What do they think this is, Burger King?

Who in their right mind would see a disfigured child and not feel anything but sympathy and compassion? Those awful people should be the ones that are shunned by society.

People?

Uh, leaving a four-year-old locked in a building alone IS "something going wrong"!

Child care workers are notoriously underpaid and overworked. But. They left a small child completely unattended and alone for 3 hours. That's a pretty big fuck-up. I can't muster up any surprise or outrage over the fact that they were let go, but whoever was managing this shift should've been fired as well.

Still no excuse for leaving a child alone in a building.
