You gotta have it both ways. Sit down and shut it while we talk. Tell us what to do when we're talking! Wait don't. Or do. Or maybe I don't fucking knowing we're riding by the seat of your pants here.

So Fappening bad. But this is okay? Nice. Fuck you all.

This was to be expected, it's almost like they have to include this shit at this point.

Perhaps the shit was already stirred, but these takes are always paint-by-numbers, freshman level bs. Completely devoid of nuance and serve the sole purpose of driving clicks/comments. Kara is more guilty of this than Greg as she takes the route of “I’m black so if I say it and you disagree I’ll just remind you I’m…

Don't forget only highlighting half the issue, writing posts that are 2x as long as necessary and using words incorrectly.

It would also help if Greg actually had any idea what the totality of Bernie’s platform is. But it’s been a few days since Gawker had a baseless race mongering post that completely missed the point.

That's utter nonsense. The NAACP represents the black community. That's a fact. No organization represents all of a community, that person hardly implied as much. Pointing out that this one organization doesn't mean all is worthless.

But this shit is designed for them. It’s freshmen level pandering bullshit. It lets the paint-by-numbers hive mind get the feels and the trolls get incensed.

If only this could be starred a million times.

I was hoping that their shitiness was the reason. I'm actually disappointed it's not.

Well at least you seem to have a solid understanding of how depression works.

These types of situations are a powder keg in the empty warehouse just outside of town about to burn down. It's a grueling, seemingly endless experience that lends itself to people saying stupid shit, and they do. I'm more impressed when they don't.

Well, Grantland is 95% shit as well. Their writers are in serious need of an army of editors to whittle down their spittle into something a bit more coherent.

Possibly, shit like this: https://www.bostonglobe.com/lifestyle/styl…

A 9 year old definitely can. My parents divorced when I was 12/13. I can’t recall when precisely. I have two older siblings and one younger. My older sister by 3 years doesn’t recall my father ever hitting my mom. Or my mother’s years of psychological abuse toward my father.

But they weren't older children when this began and the incident that was reported was on a visit 6 years ago. My memories of my parents abuse toward one another when I was young has been reshaped considerably over the years. It'd be one thing if this was all happening in the present, but 6 year acrimonious divorce is…

I’m aware they word these questions poorly deliberately. However, tacking on deliberately doesn’t make them better.

True Life.

The wording of that question is just terrible and I think could lead to quite a few false positives. But social sciences are bullshit anyhow so this shouldn't surprise anyone.
