Gypsy is a weird word for Americans. We don’t really have a Romani population, so gypsies were kind of romanticized as colorful travelers (at least this was my exposure growing up). It was surprising to learn the history in Europe and once I did I stopped using the word, but I do it out of a sense of empathy and…

I feel like if I ever met either of them, I would just start to ugly cry and say I’m so sorry over and over

Just had a thought... has anyone gone through his tweets and done a data analysis?  What’s his word cloud like?  What insults does he use and do those correlate to certain demographic groups?  What is the ratio of positive/benign tweets to attacks on people?  How does anyone aware of his conduct think he is fit to…

Unfortunately, that’s the problem :(  

My last relationship basically ended this way.I have my own struggles with life, eating well, exercise, whatever, but I was always trying to move forward.  He was a “someday dreamer” who never did.

His humor always seemed to come from a dark assholish place.  Groundhog Day is still one of my favorite movies

You give such great advice.

Ive been listening to the same sample track from pzizz for years. It’s kind of become a ritual when I can’t sleep. Although I find I can also trick myself by pretending I’m one of my dogs.  If those assholes can sleep all day without any issue, then I can force myself to sleep at night

I dunno, his responses seem ok.  It can be hard to change your perception of yourself as one of the “good guys” and realize that you weren’t. As long as he comes out with an understanding that what he did was wrong and why it was wrong that’s fine.  If he just blames it on “the culture” and some unfair backlash then…

I hate the neighbor scams. For the last couple years I get up to 3 calls a day from numbers in my area code - a place I haven’t lived for 10 years. One day I randomly picked up, not really sure why, and it was some dude demanding to know why I called him. He didn’t like my insistence that I had not and sounded like…

This article reminds me of a recent town hall meeting where an executive told an anecdote about how is boss had “a nice car and a hot wife - and [he] wanted that”

If people take offense at your joke then your joke was shitty.  No offense.

Go look at what William Shatner turned into then get back to us.

This guy was so boring, so beige, and looked and spoke like he wasn’t playing with a full deck. Becca seems like such an interesting, vibrant person, and then the guys she picked to continue all looked and acted exactly the same. Boring.

Good to know that even Lance Bass is fucked over in the housing market by people richer than he is.  Welcome to real estate, bae.

I suspect Kanye’s narcissism has amplified her own.

I don’t have kids, but I have a laptop I take to and from work. Some days I set the laptop on the entry table, then turn to pick something up - purse, phone, pat the dogs one last time, whatever. Then I walk out without the computer. I’ve made it all the way to my desk before I remember before.  Even trying to get…

Bekah is a manic pixie shit stirrer.

My panic response is to lash out sometimes, too.  I worry that it might “get me in trouble” someday, but the first reflex is so quick and the instances where it comes out so few that it’s tough.  Other times I freeze.  Panic/discomfort/fear is a fucking weird thing.

You maybe aware, but others may not: if you are switching funds in a taxable account(not an IRA or 401k), you may have to pay capital gains taxes when you sell the old and buy the new. This is almost certain to wipe out any savings you would otherwise make from the fee reduction. Consider changing your contributions…
