#2) This disgusts me so much. If your friends continue to be friends with harrassing douchebag, they are signaling to HDB that he can harass with impunity; that there are no consequences for his behavior. THAT is what you need to communicate to them; not that it "hurts you," but that he has violated societal norms of…

We're not saying that she's stupid. We're just saying that she doesn't know any better. Maybe when she learns the way the world is supposed to work, we'll come to like her. But right now, she's just not experienced enough.

"Still young career"?

Much like cars, their value decreases dramatically once they've been purchased. Nobody wants a used puppy.*

well that's just the universal reply to everything on jezebel, isn't it?

Yes, this. Risk of poor management (not criminal negligence) is part of the risk of investing - expecting courts to mitigate that risk is asinine.

I never walk into their stores but I see the hip, slender women about town toting their bags around and the sayings on it make me want to vomit. Have you read their bags?

You're right, this is totally comparable to jobs where people get paid money.

Sometimes I wonder if the human race deserves the companionship of dogs but Mrs. Cudd is someone to prove that wrong. One of the first times I began to doubt religion is when my friend's preacher father told me animals don't have souls so they don't go to heaven. If there happens to be an afterlife, I hope Mrs. Cudd…

isn't the whole point of co-ed adult kickball to get laid?

I always thought he was a little goofy but when he took Paul Ryan's bullshit behind the shed and spanked him repeatedly in the VP debates, I liked him a lot.

Free Speech Night is off to a rousing start.

AANNNNNNNNNNNNNDD THE ROCKETS' RED GLARE

I have to admit...I'm not sure what to do with a freezer bag of shaving cream, either!! Sit on it and make a mess?

To add to all the very smart things already said here, I think it could be useful to read a bit about Stockholm Syndrome (Google it), "betrayal trauma" (you can Google that too), and Seligman's dogs (try "Seligman," dogs, and "learned helplessness.")

Your mom is the best. Just the best.

Whenever there is a hot toy, my mom goes and stands in line at 3 in the morning so that she can get a bunch of them to donate to Toys for Tots, because she thinks those kids deserve the hot toys too. She loved the "thrill of the chase" when we were little and she keeps doing it even though my sister and I are nearing…

Maybe your brain expects conflict in your relationship, so you're just working through it in your sleep because you aren't experiencing it when you're awake.

I do this all the time, but, to be fair, my husband also does this to me. We have a rule that we have to tell the other person when we wake up if we're dream-mad at them so they at least have some context why the other person is being such a crankypants. And we usually apologize to each other for what our dream selves…

Oh my god, I feel legit crazy when this happens. Usually it's Dream Husband just keeps smiling when I'm upset about a dream situation, and when I wake up and am still annoyed, Real Husband is just laying there next to me asleep, like nothing even happened.
