No fucking joke. I let one idiot drag me into a several post thing where I fucking schooled him on every post and he just kept responding with absolute nonsense thinking he was shutting me down. Sad shit. (I dismissed the convo a while ago, not gonna give his troll buddies a chance to star his shit)

I'm guessing she was in the country illegally and had no money. The original article said the victim had not eaten in several days.

Fun fact - Eeyore = Optimus Prime. Just try to unhear that now.

Or maybe Mo'ne is just a forgiving person and doesn't want the world hating someone for a single tweet. She's answering hate with forgiveness and love. She's an example to everyone.

Part of what makes his statement so sad is that it's pretty clear that he was using "slut" as a random synonym for "girl" or "woman." Her response gives me hope, though.

That's some Jesus level forgiving there. I need to check my Bible when I get home and see if there is any mention of a spunky 13 year old girl with a nasty curveball coming back to Earth in the book of Revelations.

"I know a lot of people get tired of like seeing me on TV ".

Not sure that's an arms race you really want to start. We have a whackadoo stockpile of civilization-ending levels.

Something something CANON! Something something "just create a new character, don't mess with the ones that I grew up with because....reasons!"

You're not a douche, but you have to make your burner mocking a well-known Gawker commenter. Sure thing, pal. Oh, and you suggesting that women need to go after women who falsely accuse of rape is as stupid and unhelpful as telling black people they need to address black-on-black crime.

No we're not. Don't make shit up.

This whole thing should be a cautionary tale about pursuing narrative and cause over analyzing stories and facts on a case by case basis. But alas, the people that need to won't heed that lesson.

Ok then, perhaps I'll stay put... :)

As covered elsewhere in the piece though - offensive rugby songs isn't really a "few bad apples" thing. I hung out with a rugger house in college (back in my "cool girl" phase - ugh) and remember these songs pretty clearly. If the other members had been there, it's pretty damn unlikely they would have crossed their…

At this point in my wedding planning, I would be super happy if we just went to the church, got her done and then ate fried chicken.

Actually, if you read the whole piece, only 8 of the team's 46 members were even at the party (the others were away playing a game), the party wasn't an official team event, and the way they've been characterized by the administration isn't exactly reflective of the reality, which is much more complicated than "SPORTS…

I've never heard of anything like that where I'm from. Sounds like fun though!

I'm not American, maybe that's part of my lack of understanding. It seems to be expected here, at least amongst the Americans I know, whereas most Europeans I know had registry office/courthouse weddings.

Oh I think they were very self-aware. It's everyone else's reality that they were blind to.

*raises hand* I also have a huge problem with destination weddings. If you want to have a ceremony barefoot on some beach, go for it! Just don't expect me, or your family, to use up our vacation time and money just to watch it happen.
