I worked through not one, but TWO, Beanie Baby years. People would grab the bag from your hands, fish out the toys, immediately throw away the fries, and walk out. Some didn’t even want their drinks. 

Not the dogs! I think who ever initiates loses the dogs.

So you come to a website broadly focused on women’s interests and then throw a hissy fit when a woman points out your knee jerk overreaction makes you look like a misogynistic idiot? Example #672,093,926 of why a certain type of man is a drama stirring doofus. Make sure you don’t tie your laces together before leaving…

Exactly. It’s almost as if their stated values are completely removed from their lived ones.

Most of the replies to this article are taking issue with his snark. I know a lot of weird, lonely men come here to hate on women but you jumped the gun a bit in this case.

Rich is a man, dork. The criticism is fair but don’t lump us all into his takes.

While you were down there sucking yourself off, this happened in LA: https://jezebel.com/lapd-officer-killed-in-training-accident-was-investig-1849612351

And this in Joliet, Illinois:

Don’t worry. I’m not so naive as to think that defunding the police will go anywhere any time soon. Your side will get your way, perhaps until the end of the US, or we all get swept away by climate change. But don’t delude yourself into thinking whatever the fuck the police do actually addresses crime. If that were…

You’re comparing # of murders and ignoring population. The population of Minneapolis has grown 11% since the year 2000. When the argument is framed as no services and no police, people would rather have police than nothing. When framed as more services and less police, people tend to favor less police. Do I think…

A handwringing article from CNN that you didn’t even bother to engage with, once again just lazily dropping links? Yes, I will dismiss it. Crime is modestly up across the country but still down overall compared to the 90s[1]. And yet, the amount of crime has no connection to how well funded police departments are[2].…

It definitely challenges assumptions about masculinity and athletes. The, “I wouldn’t let that happen to me,” crowd.

Either you dismissed my reply to your comment below or Kinja is doing a Kinja again. So I’ll add it here:

And to add... what’s funny is I can think of examples of libs being annoying and ceding rhetorical ground to the right. But they are all celebrities and centrist Democratic leaders. Not activists. Not college students trying to fight for a more empathetic world. Please, I beg of you, log off for a bit. It’s having a…

Read your second paragraph in the OP again. You make incredibly broad generalizations punching left, as many annoying centrists do, I push back on your assertions, you backpedal and get pissy for being called out. Looking forward to revisiting this in three months when some NFL player gets fired for using a racial…

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I thought Maverick was hella boring.

Okay. Care to elaborate on your subjective statements, treated as objective fact, then lazily dropping a link from a single news site from over a year ago?

I’m going to focus on one of your comments to argue with you at your word and in good faith, “But the liberal side hasn’t yet figured out how to make cancel culture work for them...” Since you are convinced this is a cultural phenomenon as you perceive it, what do you think they should do about it? “I never said there…

Tell us what happened in Minnesota since defund the police. What exactly was defunded? The entire state? Wow, I hadn’t read about that.

“By withholding judgment, I can’t be wrong. That’s the beauty of it. I’m always fucking right.”

It’s important to keep an open mind, but not so open that your brains fall out. Do some research on the history of policing, the DoD influence on militarization of the police, how training programs spread across the country, and the revolving door of bad cops leaving one community only to reappear in another. The fact…

That makes way more sense now.
