A “persistent” homeless person was begging me for change yesterday as I was walking downtown. I didn’t say anything at all, just walked by, and he called me a skank. Big whoop. Am I supposed to turn around and slap him just because of some name-calling? Gimme a break. “Dirty Harry” is a movie and it shouldn’t be real…

Dude, it’s not just a comment. It’s SEVERAL studies conducted on a random selection of people - people like your friend who claim to be perfectly safe and rational with their guns. Until actually something happens, and then all their rationality, “training” and reasonableness flies out the window.

Homeless people don’t continually harass you without if don’t engage with them after telling them no. The worst thing that can happen to you is that they call you names as you’re walking away.

The weird thing is that these idiots aren’t the ones who are living in dangerous/sketchy neighborhoods where you can make the rational argument that it’s “necessary” to have a gun because of break-ins and whatnot. These are middle-class and/or wealthy people who live in perfectly safe neighborhoods where nothing…

The 26-year-old didn’t lose her cool, but when the man refused to leave after she politely told him she didn’t have anything to give, Haggard sensed the situation was escalating.

Sorry, I don’t work without a retainer.

Except the site isn’t for people running a legit b&b and are doing exactly what you claim you despise.

For a b&b to be legal, they have to register with the city and get a permit to do so i.e. inform their neighbors that the place is a b&b and not a private residence.

If her app was so big that it was supposed to be packaged with the new Apple watch, then you should be blaming Apple, not her.

You say that now. Just you wait until all those smelly lard-assed hobos start boinking on your lawn and then come back and tell us how you’re not hurling in your puke bucket.

Well then I guess it’s a good thing that mental illness only strikes people you happen to like and/or be associated with and conveniently spares all the people you don’t like.

So all mentally ill people are diagnosed because they went to the doctor to be diagnosed? Fuck the fuck off you judgmental cunt.

Yes, if only more reporters learned to treat the mentally ill with the scorn you think they deserve.

And then remember please come back to bitch about how it’s so sad that there’s a stigma about mental illness because people don’t cut you slack on your depression, bipolar tendencies or other mental illness you may be…

Oh please, like if she applied to work in a homeless shelter or a food bank (like most high schoolers do) they would have refused her. She gets as much “normal” as she wants to, and she’s shown herself to be a snotty privileged asshat.

But ya see, she ain’t really racist because she hired a black kid to work on the show. So there!

Not only that, but considering that Obama’s family image is all about how if you work hard you can get places, how does it look that his kid got a job based solely on the fact that his people made some calls?

Meh, if this cat really was all that smug, what he could have done is walk around her in circles and tickle her stomach with his tail, thus causing her to lose her balance and topple over.

“Trend”? Fuck the fuck off. Nobody gets fired from a tenured position just because students make what you call “baseless” claims.

Isn’t this price discrimination technically illegal or at the very least questionably legal?

I mean, if I charge Asian people twice the price as people of other races for a cup of coffee at my imaginary coffee shop, wouldn’t anybody in the government have a problem with it?

Nobody is effing lecturing black people for talking about racism.

I’m lecturing the specific ahole Kara Brown, who happens to be black, for being an ahole by blaming the sister for what her brother did, all the while acknowledging that this is unfair.

If they were trying to avoid getting pregnant, contraceptive methods in the 18th and 19th century weren’t very effective (when you compare them to modern methods), unless you count abstinence. So again, the point is moot.
