Please know that, try as you may, there is nothing you can say, no way you can word it, no point you can make about this that doesn’t come across as the petulant whining of a sore loser.

When is America going to take responsibility for making the little puke famous?

A 5.3% (from your link) recidivism rate is not “extremely high.”

I know Jezebel is full of defensive potheads

It’s not popular anywhere people aren’t so blinded by ideology that they can’t see the terrible consequences of their beliefs. Ideally, “saving” unwanted fetuses is good and noble, but in reality it leads to squallor and misery everywhere your beliefs are enshrined in law. It’s not noble to fight for something that…

Writes a rant about whiny, petulant, uptight fucksticks, and their quest to destroy name-calling. Complains about being called names. Fuck.

These women chose to move to a more diverse, and consequently more expensive, area to ensure that their daughter is around other people who look like her. In the process, they had to change jobs and leave their family and friends, their emotional support system, behind. Those constitute emotional and economic losses.

Pardon the hyperbole, Albert, but this is the greatest goddamn thing I’ve ever read on Kinja. I’ve always enjoyed your food articles, but this was some serious writer shit, here. Consider me a fan.

It’s a bit much to generalize about progressives based on anonymous comments on Gawker, no?

Your mom should have let you fight your own battles. Builds character, and whatnot.

Yeah, that time my dad came to the school and yelled at the principal it was super-embarrassing for the principal...

That’s just not true. Expanding the definition of a word is the exact opposite of robbing it of meaning, or abandoning it entirely. Again, words evolve all the time. I suspect you’re just personally offended by the idea of competitive video gamers being considered, in any way, professional “athletes.” The alternative…

I’d say expanding rather than abandoning, but you haven’t said why that’s such a bad thing.

Words evolve. What’s the harm if the definition of sport has broadened to include things that don’t necessarily require strenuous physical exertion?

I disagree. In reality what they’re doing is making money from people watching them wear Levis, which is not anything like selling a pair of jeans re-branded with your own logo. If people want to pay to watch me eat a Big Mac should McDonald’s expect a cut?

What a dishonest argument you're making, Fred. "I'm smarter than them" is there in every sneering line of your post. "I then let them stutter for fifteen seconds exactly before closing the door in their face." That is a statement filled with condescension and delusions of superiority, no matter how you're trying to…

Here's why you're a "bad" atheist. There's no basis for you to be so childishly rude to people. It's not a humorous anecdote, and you don't come across as the better person in it, though you clearly think you are. That you claim to enjoy these opportunities to be a prick is just the icing on the cake, isn't it?

So, first you tell them that your mind is made up and nothing they say could possibly change it. Then you tell them you're not just open-minded, but, very open-minded. Then you tell them to offer their proof—and proceed close the door in their faces after giving them exactly fifteen seconds to do so. Hmm.

Might be medical advances in the meantime that extend that thirty years to fifty, or more.

I believe that's the logic behind the burka.
