I'll probably read it because I love this genre of books..and see the movie because Emma Watson is awesome.

I don't know how to say this without sounding like a massive asshole but this was an astoundingly wrong (ethically and morally wrong!) thing to do. Those lungs should have gone to someone whose body could have used them the longest. You guys realize that those with CF who get lung transplants die within 5 years,…

Meanwhile, someone else may very well have died because they didn't get those lungs. Where's the story about them? Were they not cute enough to warrant sympathy? And what about the next person who dies because they don't get the next pair of lungs that this girl will need transplanted? And the one after that?

I don't like how this seems to set some precedent that if you can't get what you want because the doctors say so, then as long as you have the means to attract media attention, you'll get whatever it was you were denied. This turns the already tricky decision making of who gets what organs into an…

I'm a paralegal, so believe me, I'm well aware of the limitations of attorneys. But that's not really the point. It doesn't matter if she thought that was a real law or not, or even if she had no idea, it clearly was absolutely insane for the marshal to arrest the person who was accusing him, on the spot, in a mad…

I feel like this should be stated unequivocally since the write-up did not make this clear: In this video, the marshal is conducting an utterly illegal arrest of a woman (meaning that there is no law in that jurisdiction against "false accusations against a police officer) who had just accused him of sexual assault…

Before everyone else had him for 8 years as President, we Texans endured him for 5 years as Governor. I don't forget 13 years of exhausting bullshit that easily.

I don't cry a lot (and even more rarely at work) but if I feel like I'm going to, I have a very hard time stopping myself. Even if I can postpone it for a few minutes until I can be somewhere private, once those tears decide they're coming, there's not much I can do about it. So I wholeheartedly appreciate your…

This is definitely an "it depends" situation.

Not to sound cold but just walk away. From personal experience if it doesn't involve you don't get involved. Some how some way you'll just be screwed. I used to be the type of person that tried to help and lend a hand or what ever but just ended up taking the hit for others most times with no appreciation. A friend…

While I, personally, agree with all this, I feel like this should have been titled "If You're Going to Pop the Question To Me, Do It Without Showboating". Everyone's perfect proposal looks different, and if you are the kind of person who would be delighted by your S.O. swinging in on a trapeze to propose, more power…

What stores are you shopping at, because I need to go there. I seriously always feel it is the other way around. I can never find sleeves that are long enough. Most of the time I buy the long sleeve shirts and have them tailored to be 3/4 sleeve.

I think what the folks saying, "how was this a rape joke," are missing is that this is a common line delivered to victims to get them to comply with a horrifically violent sexual act.

Ultimately, we can all choose to ignore the reality of what our words mean (because subtext is just as important as context and surface…

Seriously. If a 10 year old girl can figure out how to dye her hair black, a 13 year old kid can sure as hell find the time to devote to reading the instructions (Take one pill immediately! Take the other 12 hours from now! If you don't start bleeding In a few days then take a pregnancy test! It's seriously so easy)…

Jesus, this is horrible.

I'll never understand people who panic and act like total children (sorrynot sorry... you acted like a friggin' 3 year old here) when they get hurt. Grow up a bit. I get wanting to talk to your mother (the bravest person does in a crisis) but all the rest of this crap? Give me a break.

And if the item is out of stock you still get the discount if you are eligible for it.

My ex had a 30 lb maine coon mix that loved showers above all things. She would ram the bathroom door open when she heard the water come on unless you barricaded it with a chair. It was the only thing she ever really got excited about, and it was kind of adorable, but he usually tried to keep her out of water because…

For perspective: I have yet to meet someone who understands the theory underlying the effects of genetic modification on adult plant phenotypes who isn't actually a geneticist. (Full disclosure: I study plant genetics also.) To say something is safe/not safe, you need to understand it fully....and hardly any…
