She was WE love, WE heart, WE best friend, WE teacher, WE rebel, WE angel, WE protector, WE challenger, WE partner, WE muse, WE wizard, WE surprise, WE gift, WE comet, WE liberator, WE rock star, WE completely impossible non-cooperator, WE otherworldly visitor, WE spiritual portal, and WE baby. I loved you so much,…

It’s probably so low because of all the hoops victims have to go through in order to even get that far, as outlined in this article.

Same. Many years ago, police mistakenly came down our driveway (in that we didn’t call them, the next door neighbors did about something unrelated to us) and our dog, who was a medium sized collie mix, barked at them. They pulled a gun on my dog. Luckily I wasn’t home, because I don’t know how I would have responded.…

What was I thinking? I stand completely corrected.

Having worked on a few video projects for my job, it was once pointed out to me what a dry mouth sounds like and I will never be able to unhear it. This is not that. Dry mouth sounds like a clicking in your mouth.

VIRTUAL BRIT and LuckyCat, I feel like I have found my people!

You’re not a loser, because that would also make me a loser. A loser who has watched that trailer 6 times now, not including today.

Not new or even mine, but someone once said, “This is what happens when you make enemies of all gay people”. But also, with this current administration, their SOP is that things are only great when they are the biggest, best, most incredible thing ever and thusly, Sarah’s direction must be, “Give me the MOST contour…

I’ve been thinking the same thing. There’s a consultant that I have to interact with at work who is really “warm” towards all of the women around him but oddly, has never tried to give any of the men back rubs in the middle of a meeting.

I was just thinking the same thing. Do they go everywhere together? My husband and I have gone to each other’s offices, but only because one of us was working late and the other stopped in on the way home to pick the late-working one up. Not to attend meetings or do site visits or whatever the hell this is supposed to…

I am also extremely confused. Is it not the case that kids get presents from their parents AND Santa?? We were not rich, most of the time lower middle class, but we got gifts from both. Friends and I have also talked about whether “Santa” wrapped gifts — in my house, he did. In my husband’s, he didn’t, which is how…

So why do YOU get to be the gatekeeper?

Fair point on the fact that he’s not directing the “apologetic admission of guilt” at the people he directly impacted (although I would say the entire thing is a bit of theater considering he could have outed himself before this expose). Thanks for the polite discourse (not sarcasm).

I think there are ways of explaining that you used your status and influence to harm others without mentioning being admired. It’s almost like you could just say “I used my status and influence to harm others.”

I don’t think I agree with you. Sure, the literal definition of an apology does not require the person apologizing to use the phrase I’m sorry or I apologize. But if you’re going to release a statement, I would think that would be a big part of it. It’s my fault AND I’m sorry.

I stand corrected. Ugh. What a douche canoe.

Uh, also can you call it an apology if he never, not once said he was sorry but did find a way to talk about how admired he is twice?

Exactly. I would never buy a property in a neighborhood like that because I can’t stand the idea of someone telling me what color I can paint my shutters. So either you REALLY weren’t paying attention or you thought you were above the rules. Either way, thems the rules asshat

Wait, can we make this thread about mascaras that we’ve tried and what we think? I am constantly on the hunt.

Well, then the irony is that my voter ID card is what finally got me enough proof of my address to get my new license and yet, I did not have to do anything to prove my address when I registered to vote.
