So this jackass is arguing that not only is trial by combat via sword technically legal, and he wants it, yet he doesn’t even own a sword, therefore we must assume he doesn’t know how to properly use one. Why in the fuck wouldn’t you suggest trial by combat by means you were confident you would win? What if the…

Of course it was Samurai swords. Of course it was.

We had the same conversation about consent with our son that we had with with our daughter. They learned early that they don’t have to give grandma a hug (mom, dad, anyone) if they don’t want to and that no one is entitled to anything to do with their bodies.
Right? My parents made damn sure my sister and I were sequestered from boys to the point I got grounded when one called me, thinking I was another girl in my class.
My idiot neighbor didn’t want to tell her girls about puberty or menstrual cycles because, “They’re my babies!” She forbade the doctor from telling them, which the doctor agreed to only on the condition that she tell them that year. She had put it off two years in a row last I talked to her.
Yeah, I know a lot of moms like this. The type of folks who don’t think their boys even need to know that menstruation is a thing. The type that creates a Facebook brouhaha over whether some 7th grader they saw in the parking lot should be wearing leggings. As has been true since the dawn of time, I'm sure those kids…

But I finally found the trick- at about 7, I got him 2 or 3 Goosebumps books, and suddenly he loved reading! Comic books led to illustrated novels, and so on. And one day I looked up, and Saturday morning found my kids…
It is unfortunate. It’s this attitude that has carried forward and is in no small part responsible for the number of adults I’ve encountered who “Don’t like to read.”
I imagine Markle elegantly vaping some choice cannabis from an elegant vape pen and hiding her phone in another room so she can’t hear it vibrate.
I am stunned - stunned, I tell you! - that the woman didn’t swoon at his bravado and spend the rest of the flight sitting in his lap, buying little bottles of Kahlua, and planning their engagement party.
This was not the first time?? Oh good goddess in heaven. What do women gotta do to get anything fixed around here?!
I would just like to be “that person” and point out he got her number from her carry on bag, not checked bag.
wait wait wait THIS WASN’T THE FIRST TIME HE’S DONE SOMETHING LIKE THIS. THEN WHY IS HE STILL WORKING THERE???
Hmmm. Seriously thinking of changing all my user names to “Crotch Toxins.” I like it.
