I am just going to enjoy for some minutes that a man was the one falsely accusing of sexual harassment.

We’ve been in charge, publically anyway, for ten millennia (on clay tablet), and the results have been — mixed — at best. Let’s give someone else a shot.

I would entertain a better suggestion, but I literally doubt there will be one.

I literally am ok with this. No men in any positions of authority for at least 25 years. Sorry bros, times up.

We need to ban all men until we figure out what’s going on

THIS! Thank you, I had to scroll through like three feet of texting etiquette to get to the BEST PART!

That was completely inappropriate. Even if your family isn’t always sad when you visit grandma because she’s been dead for years, other people deserve peace and quiet and a lack of distractions.

The whole family seems to have boundary issues. Cemetery or not why are you doing yoga so close to another person they can slap your ass within hours 5 seconds

It’s primarily about power, isn’t it? I hate it when adults tease children about having boyfriends or girlfriends.

Right? That (seemingly inconsequential) detail is just burned into my brain.

I’d like to talk about cemetery yoga. Maybe it’s not a somber occasion for her family but I’d strongly prefer to not see someone doing downward dog or whatever while I’m mourning

alright alright alright we all agree that grandpa’s a fucking perv and that LW3 needs to learn a few phone settings, BUT WHERE IS THE THREAD WHERE WE TRY TO GUESS WHAT THE EMAIL ADDRESS IS???

All of that can be avoided by using the do not disturb function.

I’m not going to worry about texting people at night. I think you should be able to understand you settings well enough to twilight people who you don’t want to be able to get hold of you at night (mine allow anyone through if they call twice in a row). I have all my texts on silent because I only want to see them…

All of these responses are good ones, but your response to GRAMPS is EXACTLY SPOT ON. It IS sexual and the ONLY way to protect yourself is to call it out shamelessly. Fuck that creepy old creep!

LW3, I don’t know about your friends, but I’ve always been under the assumption that text is designed with the intent of the receiving end person to reply to it when they see it and have the time to reply, not immediate response.

LW3: On the iPhone at least, you can put a single convo on Do Not Disturb. Learning this changed my life. I almost never had my phone on sound (until I got my Wonder Woman theme ringtone), but it vibrates with every message and even in regular hours group texts stress me out, all that buzzing while I’m trying to do…

People need to stop tip toeing around family members who are being assholes.

He was merely taking time off while he transformed into Jon Stewart the White.
