he was suspended for 60 days without pay in February 2004 after he "inadvertently" left a child on a bus. According to The Guardian, Castro drove the boy around for hours instead of dropping him off at school and ordered him at one point to "lay down, bitch."

Um, because he was jealous she was talking to other people at the bar and left her there alone? I would never leave one of my female friends at the bar alone (in our city, much less another country), so he shouldn't have either.

And in case you only read my comment and not the whole thread, I clearly didn't see the earlier version of the Jezebel post which was in fact snarky and stigmatizing. My apologies!

Aaah, okay that makes more sense, thanks. I kept scrolling up and re-reading to make sure I hadn't skimmed over some snark and was SO confused. And yeah— a strikethrough would do wonders for clearing up such confusion.

I see nothing in the piece above that snarks at CZJ or her seeking treatment— it's simply reporting on her condition and that she's being proactive. Since she is being open and raising awareness, isn't good that Jezebel printed this? So we're aware?

That huge gash was left by emergency doctors who tried to resuscitate him at the hospital. It's on the left side, and is commonly done as a last-ditch effort to reach into the chest and massage the heart by hand (sort of full-contact CPR, if you will).

Rip tides are like narrow columns ofnstrong current that run perpendicular to the shore. So if you can just staybcalm and swim sideways as the current pushes you out to sea, then you'll sort of pop out of it andnthen be able to swim back to shore without fighting the current.

Ha, that's great!

Schadenfreud is taking pleasure in, or relishing, another's misfortune, while fremdschamen is feeling embarrassed on behalf of another.

Nope, they have one! Fremdschamen...

Fremdschamen!

Yeah, no, that's not how it works. He's not a United States Supreme Court Justice, you know.

Was just coming down here to see if someone posted this since it wasn't included in the story. Well worth a watch for anyone who hasn't seen this yet...

Ha, I first read this and thought you meant you'd brush their boobs lightly with your arm, and was about to be all, "Errr...that's not really okay, and I don't think having one's boobs touched instead of one's back would soften the annoyance!" Using your own boobs though as a weapon? Awesome, and I'll have to keep…
