I'm fine with that. I'd like to think I'm smart enough to 'get' it when someone is being bad on purpose. It's my favourite type of bad thing. I clearly missed it this time. It was either too subtle for me, or I just didn't think about what I read before I reacted.

Says the man who spent the first post talking about how people shouldn't express their opinions.

I'd have something snarky about your closing quip, but it's not like I was the picture of detached grace.

You are a wonderful flower.

I value my privacy too much. I value being able to sit down in a restaurant with friends and chat, or to go to a bar and have a quiet beer... or go to the supermarket and not have people I don't know constantly ambush me for shit I don't care about because they like a thing I did once.

You'd better be! Every magazine in the world is going to minutely examine you every day of your life.

So tell me all you know about the author's family, the cultural space he occupies, and his heritage. I would say you know exactly as much as bith of us read in the story, which is practically zero. You don't know how his life is and you don't get to tell anyone about their culture. I made no assumptions about you. You…

You went from trying to sound reasonable to being an abusive shitlord in 2 posts.

Here's the deal: I will give you a million dollars. In return, you will have no right to any privacy whatsoever, you will be molested at every turn by thousands of people who feel like you owe them your time, and every single person you know might possibly be pretending to like you because you are rich.

You clearly still inhale your own farts.

Keep them dry or even lightly dust with flour. You can freeze them too, which can help and it means you can make a tonne. Cook them last and throw them straight from the colander into the bowl and then sauce and serve. Should hopefully keep them pretty solid and separate. Oh and err on the side of undercooked.

If the reports she refers to are correct, then they aren't more common.

We all know that. That isn't the question, though.

From what I hear, Twilight was literally self-insertion fan fiction. Right down to the protagonist's name and description.

He was asked if he thought they were good books. They aren't and he said as much. He didn't trash them or the authors, he simply said he found no great reason to read them.

Daddy needs his sleeping pill?!?

I'm not from Texas. I've never been to Texas. I have no immediate plans to visit Texas.

Wanna (tastefully) party with this lady so bad.

Pretty sure gay women, straight men, straight women, bisexual men and women, or really anybody of any gender distinction should be A-OK with this, too! Let's all feel equality in our freedom not to buy this jerk's stuff!

Are we talking specifically about HIV here or are we including all STI infections?
