You are right. This isn’t court.

I have a 16 year old son who recently took a sponsored trip to DC with a group of other teenagers. They ate at a very fancy restaurant one night and upon my return my son told me “mom I’m so glad that you and dad had both been servers and taught me how to act in a restaurant, it was just embarrassing with some of…

.....I really hope your manager tossed her out the door with a footnote that if she ever damaged business property again, authorities would be called. It’s bullshit, but a parent stupid enough to think organizing blocks is stifling creativity would buy it.

I wouldn’t normally think my perspective on this is that worth sharing, but you specifically asked for opinions, so here you go.

Ah. I think I see what you mean now. Full disclosure I went to lunch with a friend and had two cocktails b/c a co-worker pissed me off, so I’m probably to blame too ;)

You’ve been articulate and convincing. But I remain steadfast in my opinion that feminism has nothing to do with monogamy. Some women choose monogamy. Some women choose non monogamy. To my mind, subjectively, he has wrapped up two disparate ideas.

I’m sorry, but I don’t understand how an open marriage helps a person understand feminism. Unless you badly wanted an open marriage and then realized and respected that your wife also wanted one and felt a kinship with her sexuality. Otherwise it just has nothing to do with feminism. And even then, that’s just marital…

Why would you? You, it sounds like, would not. But there are plenty of feminists who feel that sex can be many things - fun, pleasurable, deeply loving, bonding, affirming - and not all of them at once, with all people. I respect your feelings about your relationship, but I also feel a little like people imply…

This makes me feel so much better. I'm very deeply in love with theboyriots and can never imagine myself being ok with an open relationship. I get so scared when I read these kinds of things.

If this genuinely works for his marriage, cool.

That’s kinda... morally wrong. This guy sounds like he’s kind of a jerk. Seriously, who just does that? In any industry?

The idiot should have done what I do. I park out in BFE where none of the car slamming fatass waddlers want to park as they’ll get a heart attack trying to get into the store from the outer reaches, search for an end spot, and hug THAT line, while still staying within the markers. No door dings, and nobody gives a…

Do people really have that big of a problem with doors getting dinged in public parking lots? I have never once had a door dinged or dinged a door in 12 years of driving and parking appropriately marked spots. I know it happens, but is it really so common that parking like an asshole (even in a restored classic) is…

I was thinking the same thing, and then I remembered how shitty it was to be on the receiving end of violence in high school. In high school, if someone punches you in the face and you hit them back, you’re basically just as at fault as they are. It doesn’t make any fucking sense, but self-defense usually doesn’t work…

“It’s frustrating when you can’t find a spot, and there’s a motorcycle in one that could be empty. “

I agree, I drive a motorcycle 2-3 times a week to work, I hate when other motorcyclists park deep into the spot in a way that you can’t see the bike until you are already halfway turned into the spot. Where I live, there is never a full parking lot, and no motorcycle parking (usually), so when I take up a normal…

Please. I've seen estimated lifecycle costs for the F-35 at $650 million (adjusted for inflation) PER AIRFRAME. Speaking as a former infantry officer turned reserve staff weenie, for that type of cash, that thing better be able to target an insurgent, capture him, interrogate him, disseminate the finished…

I have a medical condition that affects hormones and severely slows my metabolism. It's not an excuse, just the facts of my body. I have to be more careful about the foods I eat and the energy I expend. And based on what I listed above, I don't think I'm going above and beyond what you would expect of any moderately…

I know my genetics put me at a disadvantage for losing weight easily. This just means that I need to watch my diet (95% vegan, as much raw as possible) and exercise more (running 4-6x per week, lifting 3-5x, yoga nearly every morning). I took the time to learn what works best for my body because I'm the only one who…
