There is something that makes him seem particularly sociopathic to have that smiling photo above the details horrible crime he committed. The lack of empathy lurking behind the surface of a happy, seemingly all american, (white) boy makes it somehow seem even more unexpected and horrifying that he did it.
White privilege isn’t a thing at all. Naaaaaaaawwwwwwwww. Couldn’t be. Just a total coincidence.
At first I was thinking “You can sue someone for getting injured working out?” But holy shit who thought it was a good idea to attach the person’s shoes to the bikes?! What if there was an emergency and they had to quickly leave the room?
Half the time when they say ‘small business’ they are talking about the number of employees, making a multi-billion dollar hedge fund manager a ‘small business.’
This! They drove out my favorite hardware store in my hometown. I knew the folks that lost their jobs.
And its so much more expensive there! Plus its a total surprise of what you’ll actually get. You don’t get to see the actual slabs that you’re picking so you have no clue what you’re getting. I seriously love walking around the yard to pick out the slab I want for my project
Thank you. Came here to say how particularly repugnant it is for the guy whose corporation is known for devastating local hardware stores to have the chutzpah to complain about it being hard to start a small business these days. And for him to say that he’d never be able to start Home Depot these days? Well no shit,…
Hey, you know what else is bad for small businesses? Gigantic chain like Home Depot that move into mid-sized towns and drive those small hardware shops out of business.
About two decades ago I was in a restaurant in Santa Monica and in walked Richard Simmons. He table hopped and talked to everyone (me included, he told me how handsome I was!) and finally he sat down. People in LA are a little jaded around celebrities, they do actually have to leave the house so you see them around…
That’s all the son thinks he did wrong too. He blames binge drinking and sexual promiscuity. Wonder where he got that.
I drank a shit ton of wine last night and I managed not to rape anyone.
“and that he will “never be his happy go lucky self [sic]” again.”
Hahah there is something so weird about autographing a bible. Or any book you didn't write. Note to self: hand out signed copies of Harry Potter when I'm famous.
C’mon JE, cut it out with the misleading headlines.
Whyfor you make me cry?
I had the joy of meeting Mr. Simmons in 2012. He was doing something at the offices I worked at and he stopped at each person’s desk and asked for a hug. He was intermittently laughing and crying. I don’t think anyone got any work done after he visited because we were all riding high off of it.
I hope he is okay. He seems so sweet and gentle.
This is one of those stories I don't think needs to be gossiped about. He needs peace and quiet and he should have it.
Cool. I love her work and pets! Say hi for me.
