I think it’s weird how we expect that since someone has some positive or negative trait that we then think every aspect of their being must ALSO be similarly positive or negative. We can’t accept complexity in people - just archetypes.

I dreamed of divorce for the first six months of my marriage. Everything that was so endearing before made me absolutely DESPISE my husband. Then one day I noticed the curl at the back of his neck while he was brushing his teeth and realized that I actually did love that dolt.

Not quite the same thing, but one of my favorite Kinja comments ever was on an article about a teacher who instructed his students to create a Venn diagram of George W. Bush and Hitler:

thank god that under Herr Trump all of your poor ugly children will be sent to the labor dungeons to provide care for all of the beautiful rich children, and dungeon gruel is super-cheap

Don’t have kids. Problem solved. Just don’t ask us to subsidize birth control, you slut.

Sincerely,
The G.O.P.

As a Marylander myself who has lived and worked around and in Baltimore City all my life...you are being overly generous with that statement.

Tolerating each other’s bullshit since 1993 over here.

This article gave me so much dissonance, because when I heard the song I thought she sounded incredible. I couldn’t help but feel impressed about the range of styles she’s touched on and how raw it sounded. It matches the video, at least in my opinion, flawlessly. It’s got a perfect amount of grit.

I’m not sure I like the song, but I’m also not sure why the coach is equating having a higher belt-range with being a better singer. Just because you can sing higher notes louder doesn’t make you objectively sing better than someone with a different range/timbre. Signed, a Bitter Contralto.

Although I disagree, I won’t argue with you on almost everything you posted. I’ll just point this out, though: in most countries, cutting life support and euthanasia aren’t the same thing, in the legal sense, although the end result from both actions is undoubtedly the same.

Was there a dating gap? *whispers* Has she slept with both of them?

So, according to this chart, cats are the cause of divorce.

Those German officials sure sound like some sour krauts...

The Germans seem really humorless about this whole thing. That’s so unlike them.

She also supposedly delivered the baby with one push, so maybe airplanes are conducive to the act of birthing.

“hell is other people.”

Lookit, do you wanna be a happy, healthy, well-adjusted person, or do you wanna win?

A man who turns 50 should expect nothing more than a simple family party where his most important gifts are 3 ties, a 10 pack of tightie-whities, and his kids’ begrudging attendance.

Paid mourners and ashes being shot out of a cannon to Queen’s Don’t Stop Me Now.

She also calls Trump ‘that orange ass.’
