I'm a truly single parent of a super energetic two year old. I have no partner and no family within a hundred miles to lend a hand in the day-to-day stuff and it's fucking hard. Last week I had a bad moment like the one you described. Just loosing my shit angry because my son did something I'd asked him a million…

I didn't even see the question, but if it was asked with sincerity, the only people who are annoyed are people with sticks up their asses already. Write an article, expect to get questions, if a 'journalist' can't understand that then maybe they need a new job.

Last year in California, two people called the police to tell them there was a crazy man running around their apartment building with a knife. They were afraid for their lives and needed the police right away.

Nah, not unreasonable. You've got four other links throughout the piece backing you up, and a fifth link for the image, but then the you tell us to google the most inflammatory phrase?

I would say 95% of the people I know who are officers have no business being officers. They're morally decent people who are not dumb or malicious by nature, but I'm 5'5 with no training and could easily take any one of them down without issue. I would fully expect them to reasonably feel threatened in most…

Or, Kara could have been clearer in her article by linking her source rather than make you feel like a dick for wondering. I was wondering the same thing until I came to the comments.

In fairness, undergrads are a giant pain in the ass.

Fantastic news and it's good to see cooler heads prevail!

Actually that's quite often how some professors choose to teach. Sadly some get tenure.

That's like 3 wrong turns into drug dealing-landia.

Nooo! 'Teen Wolf" taught me that you can ride, without restraints, on top of fast moving objects and be just fine!

Also in "Why Not?"

don't forget pallet: a wooden platform for transporting large quantities of merchandise. " i just ordered a pallet of monogrammed coffee thermoses filled with ranch dressing"

I'd like to go one step further and advise that when you're at a Cracker Barrel, order whatever it is they should be good at, which is probably not steak. If you order a steak at a Cracker Barrel I'm not sure it's the Cracker Barrel's fault.

The Midwest is waaay to big to generalize. There also doesn't seem to be a consensus on what exactly constitutes the Midwest.

Dammit, I've been using lentils all this time!

You write that Charlie Hebdo cartoons are racists, so I assume you refer to the human race? That, or you are misinformed.

Thank God they used the pre Kinja layout so we could see all the other headlines.

That is fucking awesome.
