Erin Gloria Ryan used to be commenter Morningloria. She was as wickedly funny then as she is now. So, lowly commenter, your dreams can come true too!

I tried a gluten-free diet for a couple weeks and it's crazy how quickly you can fall down the internet hole with that stuff. There is just so much "support" out there, even if you're just browsing some forums (I swear I didn't comment) and it's so tempting to want to find a theory of everything that is wrong with…

Why?

I had the same reaction regarding the unusual relationships. When it was just the "friend" for whom she was giving free childcare, I thought maybe I was being culturally insensitive, and that some communities are more informal when it comes to childcare. But the nurse thing....why was the nurse at her house? Why…

Him: this is so funny Fi! These feminists keep bitchin' about how men don't do as much housework. But we like, build the fences, ya know? I'm reeeallly lettin' 'em have it. How long until dinner is ready?

"Fact" does not mean what you think it means.

Gawker comment section is filled with so much less misogyny than Jezebel these days. Even posts on the same stories. It's depressing. I don't even think some of these dudes read Gawker, they just come straight to Jezebel to air out all their complaints.

Fantasy.fucking.baseball.

But some man, somewhere, built a fence and that counts, right? Lol.

Yeah, this is too perfect. I loved how he rambled on about how men are spending all their damn time building fences and then admitted he hasn't ever built one. Pretty sure his idea of what men do and what men actually do is a tad off. Although my darling and I patched a fence together one time. This reminds me I need…

1. You can see how a graphic video from is different from medical professionals at a hospital taking five minutes to consult with their *own patients* about their medical needs, right?

Jesus. I've resisted making this comment for so long, but I've been on Jezebel 4ever, and things have gotten really fucking bad in the last couple of years. The commenters make it, but that's probably the philosophy that let my favorite commenter become an editor. Anyway. Thanks for the above post.

My partner's mother is very similar regarding control, and even though my own mother has schizophrenia, I find his mother much, much harder to deal with. He caters to her whims, and I find it exhausting and baffling. He does validate my frustration with her and he just started getting therapy. It's his mom, and I…

Well, as a non-parent, I can't pretend to know whether children are verbal by the age of 12. But, assuming they are, couldn't a parent discuss what might/should happen during this five-minute session, and then debrief afterwards? If a doctor said "have all the sex you want! you're only 12 once!" or "God will smite you…

Sure, but a small claims judge might say that the breach of the bailee's duty makes this akin to hawking stolen property and therefore an act of conversion with some specific remedies in mind. But I'll admit my knowledge of smalls claims court proceedings is limited to watching that Judge Judy clip above.

"hahahahaha I love your honesty. At last some sheer blatant upfront authenticity. Although there is some more I have been involved with lately. :( Sad stuff actually. But it will come out of the closet soon enough I hope. IT is going to bust a lot of peoples little bubbles though"

Fuck off. That felt healthy!

I just hope you're not my ex, madam.

Even worse!

You're totally right, but I took Cassiebear's comment as a remark on the general awfulness of the trolling today, and not on whether that special c word should actually be used to describe the girlfriend. But I drank a ton of red wine after making the poor decision to engage in a flame war with a troll (Patriarch) on…
