You aren’t being judgmental, but you are concern-trolling like a boss. Drinking within the recommended daily limits (which would be a glass of wine every single damn day for a woman) is the slippery slope to addiction? You will “pay the price”?

Counterpoint: Pansy Parkinson was a bully who once goaded Malfoy into cursing Hermione’s teeth, something she was already very self conscious about.

Julia Roberts can be so good when she just embraces the shallow, petty, vindictiveness that comes naturally to her.

You find it baffling that other people are not exactly like you?

Nice example to set for your kids “sure it’s okay to allow yourself to be a doormat”.
