As you noted, this incident wasn’t at all about being possessive about the fish. “Are you black or white? . . . Oh yeah, it matters” pretty much encapsulates this petty, vile shell of a human being.

Thank you so much for posting this link—that information should really be included in any article on this really evil perpetrator. I also think this link should be included in the Jezebel post, or at least more of the details. This guy is not even a wanna be martyr. He did try to ‘take her with him’, he calculated…
I read your pithy comment in Nancy Graces grating voice. Are you one of those people who thinks others should just suck up workplace abuse until it get dramatic enough to reach your personal threshold?
I think you overestimate the reach of Nancy Grace. She’s a cancelled cable personality, much reviled in many circles, a joke who will forever have Dancing With the Stars on her cv. Cella should absolutely speak truth to power—like any comedy venue is going to give a shit about Nancy Grace ? Cells is adamantly not a…
I applaud your ingenuity and perserverence! I’m not a big Reddit person but there’s a highly amusingly sub on it called “PettyRevenge” which you should post on . . . It might even qualify for ProRevenge!
Humans are complex, and especially writers. Some of the most eloquent, humble, achingly beautiful and admirable texts are authored by petty narcissists (at worst) or (at best) those with shall we say moody temperaments.
A little irony in your advice given your nom de plume.
Absolutely. She would have more of my empathy if the stakes weren’t so fucking high. It’s interesting to note that victims of covert abuse almost always turn into future perpetrators themselves without any intervention. She has a chance to break the cycle for her family – but, ultimately, I don’t care about her…
With the glee of a high school freshman who’s just joined the debate team and and is waitng to see which side of the topic she is assigned. Ugh.
Ivanka’s definitely been “groomed”, with all the incestuous and exploitative connotations attached. She’s been groomed to act as her father’s wife, his mommy, his fill-in-the-blank likely since she was a small child. It would take years of focused therapy—and cutting off her family—for Ivanka to even have a chance…
Her “book”, which barnacles into other women’s work that are far more brilliant and empathic than she is, is shameless. Her position in the Trump family is such a weird one; I think we all are sort of more and more repelled by her as time goes on. She’s not particular smart, or savvy, or even beautiful, but she’s…
“Let’s Go Crazy” actually has the best life advice, imo—never fails to pump me up in hard moments. Losing Prince and David Bowie so close together was a severe stomach punch :(
Actually he claims three affairs. He could have been cheating every day, which statistically—and ethically— is pretty darn bad.
I don’t know how I misread that! Like he, whoops, cheated only three times with three vixens who tempted him. You’re right, who know how many times he cheated on his wife over the years with these three women and beyond (he’s already established he’s a liar and a cheat, why would we trust his numbers?). To hold up…
No wonder he recently spoke about recommending to Michele Obama that she could still become a “real housewife” on tv when he misinterpreted her saying she was worried for the future. She was talking about the future of the U.S., not her career; she supposedly gave him a look and walked away. Rock thinks he comes off…
Ugh, Chris Rock is gross and should stop talking about how his ex-wife (and mother of his children) had no money of her own and how his new “girl” has “got dough of her own”. His ex deserves serious compensation for tolerating his insufferable, adulterous ego for 18 years.
Your mother is a damn hero! And she had to do that on Mother’s Day, no less. I hope she educated him in private as well, so he doesn’t think this one waitress is now the exception to his general non-tipping.
Normally I heartily dislike articles/posts that mention age, but I wish this post had included Paris Rosenthal’s age. She has one of those beautiful faces that could be sixteen or twenty-five. Turns out she is twenty—lucky to have had her amazing mother to guide her to the fringes adulthood, but far too young to…
Yup. No wonder this person wants to remain anonymous. Probably the first good decision they’ve made in a long while.
