@Ginmar Rienne: She dumped nachos on them. That's escalating things. They escalated it further, but acting as if she was just saying stuff is completely dishonest.

Dear Minnesota,

@roxythekiller: Interesting how Mexico City.. where this protest is taking place... is not one of the areas you mentioned.

@Vulcan Has No Moon: I have to say, I highly doubt that most people who get that deserves that. And I, personally, am kind to the wait staff and always tip well, unless someone is taking their shitty day out on me... then I tip 10% and consider it to be a "fuck you". You're right, it's called service... which…

@icyblonde: So, working slowly, or being slightly inconvenient, I understand. It's just anything that involves food— that horrifies me. I don't approve of, or understand, responding to bad behavior with more of the same, but yours at least seems to be benign.

@icyblonde: How is that a nice one? The people contaminating the food are the real villains. How much of a horrible creature do you have to be to fuck with something someone else will ingest?

@Vulcan Has No Moon: Anyone who fucks with things like that is a far worse human being than anyone who bullies someone else. If you've EVER done that do a drink, you deserve every bit of bullying you've ever received, and more. People who would tamper with anyone's food like that are disgusting, and barely worth…

@icyblonde: As someone who was bullied, I hope that the bullies don't dwell on it and care. I also hope that other people who were bullied can grow the fuck up and stop caring what someone thought of them when they were 12. Unless you failed at life, does it really matter?

@jtate: Wow. You've managed to state what i was thinking so eloquently. Awesome!

@roxythekiller: So even negative attention that makes people take your cause less seriously is something you support? Huh. Unusual way to support your cause.

@roxythekiller: Yeah, still going to go with that not fitting consumption, though. You want to protest against animal abuse, by all means, have a tiger. You want to protest people eating meat, and other animal-based food? The tiger just makes it eye-rolley.

Sometimes I feel like so many people have been bullied that some of the people we perceive as bullies instead perceive themselves as being bullied.

Yes, because eating tigers is so bad for the environ— wait what? People don't eat tigers? Oh. Ok then.

I'm a woman who is getting married to a man in a bit over a year. Gay marriage is an important issue to both of us, and I feel like what we say regarding it will have more weight to others if its coming from us being in a marriage than it will if it's coming from us being "sinful cohabiters"

I have never been able to get into Austen, and yet I love Hardy and Eliot. Part of it is her style, certainly, but as to the rest— I don't know, I just inevitably end up bored. It's been a few years since I last tried though, so maybe I'll give one another shot over winter break— which one would you all recommend?

@Ofmyself: Hmmm. I usually wear black hose when I wear skirts in professional settings, and could get used to wearing black kneehighs whenever I wear slacks, I guess— My legs are scarred in a way that tends to provoke stupid questions from strangers, and which is really quite unattractive anyway. Do you think that…

@Sassy Pants: The one problem with that is that if your name is from a non-English speaking country, it may have subtle sounds in it that an English speaker may not be able to pronounce, or even hear. Our brain has a use it or lose it approach to sound combinations, and as much as I've tried, there are some friends…

@ErinLovesYou: Yes indeed :-)

My fiance and I have both considered tattoos. He is thinking about getting the scales of justice the day he passes the bar, and I'm thinking of an anchor, because it was the symbol of my sorority, and my sorority was the best choice I made in college and the first truly feminist organization I've ever belonged to. …

@everydaystranger: If she's obsessed with celebrity chefs, cooking is probably one of her hobbies— I know the things I cook for my fiance and I are something I love to talk about, even if it is stereotypical. But that's just because cooking is so awesome! She's probably just jokey-bragging on herself.
