As a lowly grunt, expecting to soon be jobless for calling out a shitty boss, this person has my utmost respect. We can be heroes, just for one day.

This may be apropos of nothing... or possibly of everything, but I fully intend to spend every waking instant of 2018 blind, stinking, knee-walking, numb-faced, blackout drunk. I mean, why not, really?

I kid, he’s probably a stand-up guy. I’m envious of his robust, lustrous hair.

What does Tom Brady have in common with my ex (who is, of course, a Pats fan too)?

From what little I’ve seen/heard of Mr. Quinto, he appears to be a man of genuine integrity.

My homemade motion-capture suit. Enjoy!

Mine remains on auto-erotic asphyxiation.

From one lifelong Halloween lover to another, thank you for this. I hope you and your son enjoy many wonderful, safe and fun Halloween adventures.

Starred for that closing paragraph. Simply lovely, well done.

On the one hand, this gadget is useless to me because I’m highly positive and have no difficulty smiling.

Thank you; I can see adding this to my daily internet rota.

Thank you; I’m a mess, but I have people who are trying to help me. And you’re right, oddly appropriate handles there.

I’ve somehow encountered mobbing and bullying at goddamn near every job I’ve had in my adult life. I’m convinced it’s now an American corporate feature, rather than a bug.

As someone who was recently cheated on and abandoned by a well-cared-for partner, THANK YOU.

In my experience, it’s the people that need it the most who will never seek it out.

“I plan to spend my remaining months in office continuing my work as the national leader on mental health care reform...”

I lost most of my friends this year; they left with my now ex-partner. I loathe my co-workers, and I’m useless with strangers.

I’m not trying to make this about me, but I can’t stop thinking about my ex today; she’s a great rock audiophile, and I know she’d be depressed by the loss of Tom Petty. We were together a long time, like Petty and his first wife -and like Petty, I’m in a downward spiral without her. I’d comfort her if only I could.…

I work under people just like him, only they’re not trust fund babies who slept their way through the poshest schools. They’re just morons with authority. And nobody knows how the fuck to get rid of them. They’re everywhere, and he is their diseased and feckless king.

Emma Watson was also subjected to a “countdown clock,” if I recall correctly. Pretty unsavory.
