A friend of mine is a fairly well-known author, and I’ve seen first-hand how he’s been misquoted in the press. Interviewers have frequently twisted and distorted his words, or presented them without any conversational context, and it’s immensely irritating to be misinterpreted. I don’t think it’s always been malicious…

I wasn’t sure whether to reply to this but looking at your comment history I think you are sincere. My statement is about a much more insidious and complex issue than “poor people are ugly”.

I’d call her a cunt, but she lacks the depth and warmth.

My brother died of a heroin overdose in June. It was his first hit after 3 years of sobriety. My family has been very open about his cause of death for just this reason, but it can be HARD to be honest about it for a few reasons...

Exhibit A, and we are done here.

But...

You get tinselitis.

Long arms and short skirts?

True story, somewhat related. Years ago, a friend of mine visited her gyno. Gave a urine sample. There was no toilet paper, so she got a tissue out of her purse. During her exam, doc asked her if she wanted/ would like to have the postage stamp he found “down there”. Apparently, it had been stuck to the tissue. She…
