Fuck you.

Why would you even bring up these scenarios, given that that’s not at all what happened?

SHE’S A YOUNG GIRL. WHO CARES IF SHE PROVOKED IT.

I hate to alarm everyone, but

I’m pretty sure he was a commie though. (And: good!)

The answer to the question posited by the title really didn’t need that many words. It could just have been, “Because they don’t have thumbs.”

And they were expecting what, exactly?

Oh, and he’s the same guy who writes about financially coercing your wife into sex by doing things like taking away her ATM card. So that’s almost certainly actually happening.

He freely admits in the comments section that this is about him, and that he regularly coerces his wife (who is disabled, and thus presumably at least somewhat financially dependent on him) into sex.

Out of all of the things you could have said in response to that, you chose this? (headdesk)

He wasn’t so much pointing out that America isn’t a democracy as that it really fuckin’ sucks, IMO.

I love this article so much I wanna marry it, but I wish Burneko had talked a little bit about what dissolving the US is actually gonna involve, to find out if I agree with it or not.

“You have to keep in mind that technician choose to work those long hours or skip lunch breaks.”

Oh lord. I just don’t like getting grease all over my face, and blotting lessens that. And I always dispose properly of the napkins. Live with it.

“I don’t have a problem with investors, entrepreneurs, or even filthy rich people either. “

why not?

In that situation, I would have been grateful for sobriety. I might be insane enough after four or five drinks to hook up with some horrible college Republican just for the story at that point.

Read a book!

So we’re at my grandmother’s funeral - she lived to be nearly 91, so this wasn’t a tragic early death, more of a “ok, she’s out of pain now” kind of thing, and my then-boyfriend is there, and I notice his shoulders shaking. He can’t possibly be crying because he’s never met my grandma, so I ask him what’s going on.…

It’s the rare occasion where bad shit trickles up: the insane, brutal, inhumane work ethic being forced on the rest of us poor fuckers is trickling up to the white-collar folks. This does not mean it’s ok that it’s happening to them, or us.
