But I love BOTH! I have enough love to go around for dogs & cats. I refuse to choose. So there!

I'm 1000% sure that obsession with "modesty" breeds teenagers' obsession with "skanky" clothing. And I don't mean that in a reverse psychology "they're just rebelling" kind of way. I mean that the idea that women should cover up is rooted in the same belief as the idea that women should show off their bodies. They…

Fewer Eagles fans, Einstein.

It wasn't purgatory. The flash-sideways was purgatory, but everything on the island and in the first 5 seasons happened in "real life."

I want to say this about mental illness, because I think this is important, at least to me.

He does have a point, although it's an ignorant one. Saying Anheuser - Busch is somehow out of line for issuing a statement against domestic violence is like saying Ford and Verizon can't issue statements against texting and driving. A company designs a product; its up to you whether you want to use and abuse that…

Okay you folks of the she started it persuasion, also the it's their business not our's school of thought, and jump on board ye of the group known as I met him and he's such a nice guy experience. Gather round all of you 27's and supporters of the same and answer silly old me one question. What was that going on after…

I also imagine that if somebody did take nudes the old fashioned way and the film developer guy made copies and pasted them all over the neighborhood or you sent hard copy nudes over USPS (in an opaque envelope) there would be less focus on the nude people. There's something about the Internet that just makes it seem…

Okay, I'll play. First, sticking up for yourself will get you killed. Pretty damn simple. Second, you stay because he threatens your children. Your parents. Your nieces and nephews. Your grandparents. He can and will hurt them. You stay and do anything to protect the ones you love. If you haven't lived with an evil…

You know what I think? I think anyone who's never stood and stared suicide in the face should shut the fuck up. I think anyone who hasn't cried themselves to sleep and wake in the morning only to find fresh tears are already falling should sit the fuck down. I think anyone who doesn't understand what it's like to be…

This article didn't sit well with me for some reason. I've never expected high end brands to start making plus size clothes, and it doesn't excite me when they do because I can't afford high end clothing.

NOPE. Vick is fucking celebrated and very much alive and well in the NFL. Even some of my fellow dog-owner friends made excuses for this guy because FOOTBALL. Find another angle. Dogs and women are all just a bunch of bitches to the NFL.

That is a great point. I got my first tattoo in someone's garage at age 15. It is a standard, right off the book, tiger's head with a tribal flame background. It meant something to me and I thought it was an apt representation of who I was at the time. I never gave any thought to who I would become or if that image…

it is not a compelling argument. the grand canyon is an astounding natural site. changing it would not add to its grandeur and paves the way for further amenities which will only diminish this amazing place. i can't make the hike either, but i do not think my abilities (or lack thereof) should be used as a reason to…

Does your employer provide health care? Then you're entitled to legal medications to maintain your health. End of motherfucking story.

Mixed breeds almost always get classified as pit bulls by shelters and cops unless it is obviously something else, especially when someone gets bitten. Most people have no time or knowledge to bother getting more specific. Only a very few owners ever pay for boutique genetic tests. If it's in the city, has short…

My homeowner's insurance was cancelled for, among other things that displeased my underwriter, "vicious wolflike dogs". These vicious wolflike dogs were my two elderly and mostly blind Collies, who could on a cloudy day with your fingers stuck in your eyes, resemble "wolves". However, they were proud to mistaken for…

I hate you. I am working so hard at being a lovingful person, but all I can think is that you are a cruel black-hearted person and I hate you. I am a little angry with myself, but...that's my honest reaction. You're a repugnant turd.

Here's the other reason I did a Foods That Should Not Exist: since this is the column that landed me this job, and a trip out of the nightmare that is the food industry, I thought it only fitting that my last full feature as a Recruit (other than next Monday's BCO) be a probably-overdue edition of Foods That Should…
