So I guess by her logic the reason she’s not an A-list actress is just that she chose not to be by not trying hard enough?

The most horrible/hilarious thing about this is that they then proceeded to make a whole series of “Watchers” b-movies about genetically engineered monsters running around. The last one was supposed to be a more-faithful-to-the-book reboot and starred Mark Hamill. It was not more faithful to the book.

Ugh, that is disgusting. Most people who have worked with kids have had a kid get a crush on them. No normal adult takes that as a reason to have sex with the kid.

I saw this trending on Facebook with the title “Ex-Teacher Explains How Affair With Student Began.” Uh we know how it began, he was a child in your sixth-grade class and you decided to have sex with him.

When I was in my late teens, my mom had been divorced from my father for several years and started dating again, but did not want my brother and I to know that she was in a new relationship, because she thought it would traumatize us like it does seven-year-olds in the movies or something. We had no particular loyalty…

I am dying laughing at that guy's pure dread. "Oh it's okay, please don't give me that look, oh Jesus Christ"

I was surprised to see a guy getting away with publishing "suspense" novels under the name Stephen King. You'd think they could at least do an IMDB-esque (I) and (II) for disambiguation. Pretty much all the reviews are like "I BOUGHT THIS THEN REALIZED IT ISN'T THE REAL STEPHEN KING" (although there are a few dim…

Haha, this happened to me too! His response to me saying "I AM a woman" was that he's watched a ton of porn and has never seen "more than one hole" and that I just didn't want to admit that pee came out of my "sex hole" because that would be unattractive to men.

Like, the fact that she knows the Kardashians exist in the first place and is bragging about totally not knowing their names kind of defeats the purpose of her pretending that she's too above-it-all to know who they are. She's using them as a pop-culture metric!

"Marriage was not instituted by government. It was instituted by God. There is no reason for Oklahoma or any state to be involved in marriage."

I swear to Christ slices carved off the cake while standing taste better than bites taken with a fork.

(Oddly, the school also appeared to have some undocumented children among its pupils, even as Harris inveighed against "illegal immigrants.")

I read a quote from that guy that claimed that babies' crying is a form of manipulation so you should just let them cry to teach them that they're not the boss and can't expect to get their own way. Like what kind of sick fuck do you have to be to even come up with the idea that infants are "manipulators."

Yep. This

I got a zero and see black/blue.

That's something a troll made up on Twitter.

I actually just read it:

It never ceases to fascinate me the way anti-choice people talk about the evil abortion doctors running around lopping the heads off babies and act like the actual women deciding to terminate their pregnancies don't even exist.

Especially the final half of the third book (not getting too specific so as not to spoil for any potential new readers), the way she completes her quest is completely due to her scholarly work, religious devotion and willingness to put herself on the line to get the answers she needs.

Me. My hair is falling out in massive amounts and has thinned noticeably (my hairdresser confirms), I went to the doctor and he was a complete condescending dick, smirked that "sometimes hair falls out" and told me I "have a full head of hair" and didn't take me seriously at all. It's true that I'm not visibly balding…
