There are a lot of people I don’t want to be around either (including most other people’s children), but they’re not barred from a restaurant because I want to go there.  I don’t take my dog to restaurants because she doesn’t like crowds, but plenty of dogs are perfectly happy hanging out on a patio with their owner,…

I’m with James, I don’t like it. I also hate how it stopped showing in my Lifehacker RSS feed, so I have to remember to come to the kinja-deals page, then the update changed it so now I have to search for the deals-of-the-day post instead of prominently posted. Oh, and then to have to click “continue reading” after…

Or maybe she can read the book, but she’s a Baptist.

Believing in unprovable fairy tales is a problem when you are then confronted with facts you choose to disbelieve.

Religion destroys everything. 

Whatever the root cause, faith in imaginary beings manipulating your lives isn’t a good thing. At least they have medication to treat mental illness. Religion is much trickier to deal with.

Right?! How about christian invocations at all military change of command ceremonies, no matter what audience members (who are told/forced to be there) do or do not believe. Needing religious affiliation to succeed in an election, in a country that espouses separation of church and state, is ridiculous. Yet here we…

Bibles are for thumpin’, not readin’! Book learnin’ is devil stuff!

Blows my mind that in the USA, you almost need some sort of religion affiliation to be successful in politics. I’ll never understand that. 

And a huge money grab.

Tax exemption should be taken away from all churches.  They are in the business of selling their religion, and it is a business.  

She was asking for a miracle...

A poison.. that comes with a great tax break, special breaks at work and school, and big helpings of good ol’ cognitive dissonance and hypocrisy.

Instead of people complaining about these same old tired jokes ( I get them in my job too) maybe we should all appreciate the fact that not everyone looks at us as worker drones and some people actually take the time to try and interact with us instead of treating us like a drone.

Eh. I work in a field that we get the same comment. I don’t really care. Sometimes it’s the opening to chat with people that you need. It doesn’t cost me anything but about 3 seconds so why make a fuss of it? 

The Starbucks I work at gives homeless people free short cups of coffee as "samples" during off peak hours. 

Is there ad campaign going to be something like “Its Mac and Cheese, not Mac and Steve”? 

Or maybe your family (and possibly you) can get over the use of the word fuck in it’s non-threatening form.

There is no such thing as a bad word. It’s all about context. And in this case, her context is perfectly acceptable in this day and age.

Damn right, cargo shorts are so comfy, and there is so much more room for tools, and your phone, and the kids plastic phone, and some crayons in there somewhere....

Yup. And I’m going to wear cargo shorts and drive my minivan because I just don’t GAF about someone else’s belief that cargo shorts are ugly or that minivans aren’t the epitome of practicality when you have kids, pets, and bikes. I’m a Dad and I like it.

We (literally) laugh at your attempt at judgment.
