I personally like the sound of "LawMart" better!

I'm the person who raised the subject. And I'm the opposite of the imaginary person you criticized at the end there. I'm a person living with a for-all-intents-and-purposes suicidal drug addiction, and I'm uncomfortable with the idea that amputees and MS sufferers and others under the classical umbrella of the term…

Thank you. The actual problem here is just laziness with language, I think. People using words to describe feelings rather than thought-out opinions. Which has its place. But that place is not discussions of mass societal problems, or intensely lonely painful individual struggles when talking to strangers.

Ok. This is patently false. I know that many people in the larger field of Disability Studies do not support the kind of critical work you do. In constituting an addiction, or even a mental illness as a disability you are creating a type of "cross-disability solidarity" that endangers policy. This is a larger…

Well, your job puts you in a position to get buffeted by the winds of thousands of crazy strangers' exaggerated feelings, because as a society we feel comfortable attacking someone and expressing outrage toward them if we perceive them to be any kind of a public figure, and then being on the Internet makes us…

nothing wrong with being lazy

I love the New York Times when they write about serious news but they need to hire my grandma to write all their trend pieces. Articles like "Computers: What Are They?"; "Some of These Newfangled Phones Can Take Pictures: Myth or Fact?"; and "My Retirement Home Makes a Brisket Which, While I Wouldn't Call it Good…

Are you serious? Slenderman is a 5 year old meme, people were dressing up like him for funzies way before the stabbings. Ugh, internet dummies...

On Halloween I'm going to wear 10 slender man costumes out of spite.

i will not let murdering tweens take slenderman away from me.

Makes the meatball sandwich sign look rookie by comparison.

If I were dictator, I would make a law. From July 8th-15th advertisers are allowed to bombard us with Christmas. "Hey, thrifty people and creeps who are obsessed with Christmas because it's the only thing they have going on in their miserable lives, get your Christmas shit now while it's on sale!" Then, NOTHING until…

I will fully support this if it means we can merge Christmas and Halloween into 1 super spooky 4 month long costume wearing, gift giving bonanza.

As I'm sure you all know, Halloween is the best holiday, and WE ARE NOT SKIPPING IT GODDAMMIT.

I would say "a lot" would be significantly higher than 15.

Ariana Grande= Microsoft Word font.

Personally I'm just as bothered by "a young women", but your sentiment too.

Then don't sign your kids up to eat school lunch and send them with bag lunches instead. Easy!

As one of the people who had the babies: give them time. They will one day be very very grateful to have intelligent friends who want to discuss something OTHER than babies with them. And forgive them for bailing on you during the newborn phase, because it really really WAS them, not you.
