I see what you’re saying, but in this instance I would gladly loan money to a debt-free person with a steady job who quickly paid off their school and car loans.

A simpler way to state this: Practice makes progress.

Totally agree. She always looks so... bored. Every time I see her, I think of the saying, “Only boring people are bored.”

Sadly, it seems he’s directed his “issues” toward at least one of his daughters, when he publicly scolded her for wearing lipstick.

It also shows that: a) they tried to hide the real transcript because they knew how damaging it was; and b) they’ve hidden other call transcripts for the same reason.  Pretty damning stuff.

Right, but your post assumes the mother was irresponsible, which also isn’t in the OP.

I appreciate the irony of an emotional, expletive-filled post demanding that children be “well behaved.” Well done.

Congratulations! I hope the airline doesn’t cancel your flight at the last minute and rebook you in a middle seat right next to the bathroom. Fingers crossed!

I’m not saying it’s the correct usage of curate, I’m just saying that people use the term this way. (Googling “curate a guest list” results in an absurd number of hits.)

No, but curate can be used in such horribly obnoxious ways. See, e.g., “I’m in the process of curating a guest list for my holiday party.”

Hard disagree. I’m an Obama fan, but Danny Devito is awesome.

Totally agree. I am a petite woman, and here is a recent pic of me in skinny Mom jeans:

No. The reporter spoke with him this past Monday and discussed, among other things, their 2015 interview.

With pumpkin spice douche, of course.

He’s now a sassy redhead!

I mean, fair enough, but the people providing pizza to the kids are community members who are trying to help out.
