I didn’t watch the sequel, so I don’t remember that, but it sounds like something that, if I had seen it, I would make myself forget.

I would say that, at least for the supposed letter writer (I don’t know if there were real people writing in when this originally ran or if they made up the “letters”) it wasn’t about snobbery so much as about what they understood the different words to mean. Where they came from, everybody used one word for one thing…

One thing I’ve learned about most musicians--especially the ones who stay in the business--is that their musical tastes and influences go far past the boundaries of what they play and what most of their fans like. If a musician only likes the genre they play, then I don’t consider them well-rounded enough for my ears.

Also, she is an amazing actress (I first saw her in Lovecraft Country and became an instant fan) and she said so much with her face in that moment that it wouldn’t have been as effective if they’d done an actual flashback.

I mean, nobody asked for your opinion, but you sure as hell gave it.

Since it was not chocolate at all, no, it is not at all similar.

But, *you* made it a moral thing by saying that people who are fat don’t want to take responsibility for themselves.

Considering that the comment you are replying to was referencing using “fat” as an insult akin to being mean (which means that a fat person is a bad person,) this just comes off as if you believe that we should be shaming fat people and treating them as if they have less worth than anyone else.

I can’t believe you didn’t put a picture of the dress in the article. It’s so pretty. 

I feel like the court should find an impartial mental health professional that can determine if her conservatorship is still necessary. Since it was her mental health that started it, the state of her mental health should be able to show if it needs to keep going or not.

I’m pretty sure grapes are not harmful to people unless you have diabetes and eat a lot of them or it’s the only thing you eat.

Hot dogs are really easy to choke on, too. My dog will try to swallow them whole. (She swallows everything whole. Makes giving pills easier, but it’s stressful if she gets ahold of something bigger.)

I just really don’t get why you wouldn’t go better safe than sorry. I mean, does the dog need human food? Is the dog going to have negative effects if they don’t get to eat human food? No. So, just don’t give it to them. Wouldn’t a person rather have their dog as long and healthy as possible rather than give them…

I rode around in the car unbelted when I was a toddler. Hell, I’ve been in several wrecks where I wasn’t wearing a seatbelt. I survived all of it. Doesn’t mean it wasn’t dangerous.

It also depends on the size of the dog and the amount they ate. My 60 lb dog ate some dark chocolate (with mint) a few weeks ago while we were out and she just threw up. If the 10 lb dog ate what she ate, she would have been really, really sick if not dead.

The problem is, if you don’t tell people these things can be bad for them, a lot of people will feed it to them all the time. On top of their regular food. I know because my grandmother refused to listen to me and now one of my dogs is really fat and has problems getting around (she’s finally losing the weight, thank…

We used to give our dogs their medicine in hot dog pieces. We had to use pieces with my bigger dog because she would swallow them whole otherwise and she choked once when my mom gave her a whole one (fortunately, she horked it up OK. I know how to do the Heimlich on dogs, but I wasn’t there.)

Most things that they say are bad for dogs (like the hot dogs and such) are because, in large quantities, they can give the dog long-term health issues. Especially fatty foods. And, a large quantity for a dog is less than a large quantity for us (outside of very large dogs like St. Bernard’s.) Especially if it’s a…

I mean, she’s 76 years old living with her 90+ year old mother. She could have been taking a shower and slipped and got knocked unconcious and her mother didn’t hear anything, so just figured she was taking a long shower. Or she did hear and called 911 and she was on the way to the hospital.

Not to mention that you can compete without being affiliated with any country. So, no, it’s not about representing a country. It’s about competing against the best in the world. And it’s totally OK to be an activist while doing that (I mean, it’s totally OK morally. The IOC sucks and says it isn’t OK with them.)
