Or most people (fingers crossed) are realizing that this dude is in the minority of his religion and thus should not be taken as an example of normal behaviors for people of that faith?
I am really hoping it is this and not that the mods are having to be extra busy.

Side note. Can I pretty please with a cherry on top…

less of a mouthful to say cadder :P

If I was the women in this situation, it would take every ounce of will power I have to not wag my finger near then chanting ‘I’m not touching you, I’m not touching you’

Oh man, I am an electrical cadder and the things the male engineers say. One of the female Engineers here has a doctoral. They call her sweetie and tell her to get the coffee.
We just sat for a photo that will be published in a paper about a massive project. Needless to say all the women got to sit in chairs while the…

and that is the down side of all the fakers.
I went to a fancy christmas party with a plated dinner. Listed that I was celiac on the invitation and asked for the beef option. When dinner was served a veggie option was put in front of me. I questioned the waitress saying that I needed the GF dinner and that I had…

Exactly.

My favorite is when vendors say they have a GF product and when you question then on the process you find out that sure.. the ingredients are GF, but the process or cooking/cutting/serving sure as hell isnt.

Haven't you ever accidently ingested shampoo while washing your hair? I, for one, don't want to add on immune response and pain for a week on top of the nasty soap taste.
Also, there are many people who are allergic to gluten. So I am guessing they want to avoid blisters and hives and all that jazz.

(Granted the…

but, but.. all the people jumping on the bandwagon have made it so that celiacs, like me, have WAY more product choice.
So while I am not particularly fond of all the fakers, in a way I have to thank them so that I can be lazy too and order panago.

Actually I am celiac and I have been to restaurants where they don't get the whole cross contamination thing. So if you are explaining it and it doesn't look like they are getting it, sometimes going 'i have a severe allergy' kicks them into high gear and my immune system won't destroy my intestines.

How long do you think I could wear it to the office before someone notices, let alone says something to me...
I am taking bets (money to be paid in advance, that dick is expensive)

Did you know that the bible is the most stolen book? Learned that one while working in a book store. People also like to try to flush the necronomicon..

Except he didn't steal anything. Didn't the shopkeep clear that up? Or am I missing something here? I am not the best at keeping everything straight, but regardless yes. Being a white middle/upper class boy/girl gets you privileges that most don't get. My POC friends were happy when we joined them to the malls because…

My friends and I were at a Boston Pizza and one of them stole a giant glass container full of coloured water and pasta.. I have no idea how old it was, but the container was glued down from all the paint that had been applied around it. left a giant bare wood circle where the container was. She insisted on putting it…

So I just had a horror story related to this story.....

I cringed and laughed and tried not to be all uncomfortable at my desk while reading this article. So I naturally decided to send it to my husband.

I plugged in the first couple letter to my husbands email, appropriately put 'wut' in the subject line and fired it…

(I get impressions in my mind of what things look like. So I don't see them with my eyes, I 'see' them with my mind)

Sorry for the length. A lot of my stories are interconnected, so they are hard to break up.

I have had many experiences. Hearing conversations when noone is in the room, being held down and seeing shadow people, but this is one of the more recent ones.
