After having read more than two dozens of post where it’s not about you - although it’s about you the whole time - can we get back on topic please?

Are you trying to imply that men who have enough disposable income to try and pay to cheat on their spouses are “the least of us?” Because like, morally, yes. But demographically/privilege-wise, no.

“How do you know they are cheating?”

“So if something happened in your home town or to someone you met once, you wouldn’t think to remark on it?”

Sure, but the OP went to great pains to point out that she didn’t feel anything on personal level. In fact, she wrote, “I’m not claiming to be personally affected by this on any level whatsoever.”

“Yeah, I’m not claiming to be personally affected by this on any level whatsoever.”

I’m sure you really are sad, but it always annoys me a little when someone knows someone who knows someone that something bad happened to and therefore the original person expects sympathy. I’ve personally experienced it with 9/11 and the Boston bombing and it’s kinda like come on, there are people who were actually…

It might be more depressing, but at least it’s about you you you, now!

No shit. My kids try this sometimes, its because they are inexperienced. My son asked for fried chicken strips but not crunchy. He was 4. My wife and I did not pass on his request to staff. We explained to him that fried means crunchy. The chicken will be battered and then pan or deep fried. The batter will get…

And like the child knows whether the chicken is grilled, pan-fried, or baked anyway. If they don’t like grill marks then don’t ordered grilled chicken, order some other kind...

This is the Alpha and Omega of the big picture that too many parents cannot see. Allowing for personal tastes is one thing. Allowing a child to hold the family’s peace hostage over their ridiculous demands is another. It makes assholes by the dozen. I raise children for a living. The rule is: You have to try…

That is the answer we’ve all been looking for: Solidarity. When faced with an undeniably horrible customer, if all the employees, managers, and sympathetic customers quickly and unequivocally joined in to shame these shit stains, they would stop this behavior. Instead, managers make excuses and comp meals and…

Agreed. It is essential to hold your dining partners accountable. But after months of reading these posts I’ve taken it a step further. Now I scowl and make judgy eyes at strangers I see being dicks to servers.

Kids are only picky eaters if you let them be.

I still espouse the “don’t like it, don’t eat it” rule. Kids can survive more than a day without food.

If she didn’t parlay her mother’s fame into said hypocritical (and lucrative) abstinence advocacy, nobody on here would give a shit how she got down. Her advocacy causes real harm to the vast majority of single mothers and any woman facing consequences for being sexually active. The hypocrisy becomes enraging…

No, but she was a paid abstinence spokesperson who couldn’t manage to stay abstinent even though she got paid to do so. In other words, she’s a fucking hypocrite and gets all the deserved shit for talking about of both sides of her face.

It’s a valid question when 2 people have already met, and are discussing sexual wants and such... not before you’ve even agreed to meet.

ALSO! LET’S DO MORE FACT CHECKING!
