Wow. Just...wow. I want to set up a chaise lounge there and spend my entire life reading.

I always liked The Climb, but didn't know there were covers of it. Hmm.

I admit, I laughed at the mayo joke. The rest of it was pretty uncomfortable, though.

That was...surprisingly sensible, actually.

Awww. I have a Moxie, too, but she was a pound kitty.

I agree. They singled her out to make fun of her, and only now are backpedaling because it could lose them some money.

I agree. The comments on it seem to be pretty well along those lines, too. They seem to be apologizing because it's pissing people off and could lose them some money, not because they realize they're being assholes to people (whether those people have brain cancer or not).

Yeah, I'm not sure what difference it makes to them what someone else wears to run a marathon. It all seems so junior high. Who gives a shit? It's not hurting anyone!

That's what I thought, too.

That was how I interpreted it, too.

Yeeeaaah...I think that would be the point where she'd find herself short at least one attendant.

I would have looked at her and grabbed two more cookies.

Same, here.

I see a lot of nasty comments about her, too, and it also bugs me. She's not conventionally gorgeous, I guess, but that's part of what I find appealing about her. She kept her nose, kept her mole, rarely straightens her hair, and I haven't heard anything bad about her as a person. I don't know why people are so…

Me, too! She's barely on my periphery, but that kind of makes me want to pay more attention to what she's doing.

Yeah, I generally end up commenting with things like, "Oh, yes, I know *I* always sleep in full hair and makeup." It bugs me, too.

THIS. I'm tired of so many attempts at body positivity being framed by and filtered through male sexual desire. How about if our bodies are okay because they're OKAY, not because some guy, somewhere, is going to want to fuck us?

It sounds like you work with a bunch of jerks. God forbid they treat a woman they don't want to fuck like a human being.

WOW. So, they massively inconvenienced you, expected you to pick up your life and move it for them, then treated it THAT cavalierly? You probably dodged a bullet, if they're that inconsiderate and disrespectful of their (potential) work force, but, damn. What a bunch of assholes.

Well, there was The Wonder Years, and lots of sitcoms that had kids, as well.
