She was awarded for her medical bills, that coffee was well into dangerous temperatures and caused third degree burns on 6% (eta actually it may have been 16%) of her body. It almost killed her. She was in the hospital for 8 days and needed skin grafts. She originally asked for her medical bills but they refused.

He was a partner in the Houston office of my law firm prior to running for Congress. Despite being largely conservative and Republican, everyone in the office (and the firm, generally) loathed him, so much so that to this day, no one wants to use his former office. It’s considered tainted.

I could totally picture Shannen Doherty assaulting a teenager. Also Sean Young.

Side note, I swear I saw her leaving a Carl’s Jr. in Toluca Lake a few weeks back. I was leaving a neighboring Del Taco, because I have taste.

Why is a 30-something hanging out with a teenager?

Absolutely. I’ll tell you that when traveling for work, particularly when abroad, those late check outs are a godsend when you have meetings all day and a late night flight. Most of the time, you never see outside your hotel and the entire process is exhausting and very unglamorous. It is not vacation in the least.

Or they’re regular people that have to travel for a living and want some niceties for being away from home so often. Having these perks makes travelling for work a bit more livable.

My spouse is a consultant, and generally I see him 2.5 days per week. It’s not the greatest setup, but his income and long hours help subsidize my non-profit work. It sucks taking multiple flights per week and spending more time living out of hotels than with your family (lots of his coworkers have little children).…

Yeah, I think Joanna must not travel for work. As someone who does 4 out of 7 days on the road, this kinda stuff really matters in terms of convenience.

Sure, there are bigger battles to fight, but if you are someone who does spend a 100 nights a year in a hotel and a couple of hundred thousand miles a year with your butt in an airplane seat (I do neither of those things any longer), the perks of elite status do matter.

If you spent most of your life away from your family because you travel for your job, you would be pissed if one of the main perks of that situation was lessened/taken from you after already being incurred.

Woah, hey, backup. I am all for adoption, but it’s not the right choice for everyone, and deriding people for having the resources to and wanting to try for a biological child has absolutely no place here. It is not the responsibility of the infertile to adopt all the unwanted kids in America.

and its only Monday

And today goes back to being the worst.

Her way of “dealing with it” has been to victim-blame. Having been a victim herself is not an excuse.

The group’s press release say Fite and Harris “demonstrated courage by standing strong in faith when situations were tough at the State Capitol and they did so with grace. They are consistently models of their Christian values in their homes, their communities, and their churches.” It commends the two lawmakers for…

I don’t think Stassa knows what ‘droves’ means. It’s bombing at the box office, as well it should.

Yeah, I told you I was speaking of a trend. You need to work on your reading comprehension.

Yeah, but I don’t care what you think?

It’s all part of a trend here of calling out Buzzfeed for stupid minutiae, while completely ignoring the egregious shit done here.
