So over the way this is being portrayed nationally.

I mean, seeing as her opinion is based on bullshit her mother fed her, not any facts, and seeing as she's a minor, I'm pretty good with this. Sorry, guys, I'm gonna side with "don't let the brainwashed teenager kill herself" group

I'd actually say most of the fault in cases like this lies with the media in general. The behavior of the CDC (while I personally believe it was reckless) was consistent with best practices for ebola quarantine. The coverage of ebola in popular media has been so atrocious that at a certain point you can't blame the

This is truly unfortunate. People are crazy.

I feel so bad for this poor lady.

HAHAHAHAHA OMG I literally can't believe that people called the fucking store and asked if someone DIED OF EBOLA INSIDE THE STORE. Died. Of. Ebola. Inside. The. Store. People in this country are the stupidest.

Whoa you can buy clothing that keeps your family members from touching you? Man I would have done that years ago if I knew it was possible.

What on earth made them think they could use an unauthorized image with a caption like that and get away with it? If you want to use someone's pictures for a product like that, they should probably be your own pictures, stock images, or pictures of deceased people (you can't defame the dead).

My goodness, can you imagine how many people have been horribly taken by surprise upon seeing one of her funny little pieces of snark and going "whu....that's me!"

Ok so babies are not my kind of people, but if I had one, or just like...access to one, I would say nothing but "powerful glutes" in front of it until it started talking.

A baby whose first words are "powerful glutes" sounds like a B+ to me, at minimum.

Oh my god, I never realized how much my cat looks like Angelina Jolie*.

SHHHH. That's implied.

So, one would think that a company that's barely solvent wouldn't want bad publicity. But then you read this on the Wikipedia page:

Don't ever be sorry. That Wet Seal is much cuter than this story's Wet Seal.

No, I don't know that you're correctly determining where my sympathies lie: each one of these employees deserves both severance and paid out vacation from accrued time IN ADDITION TO full unemployment benefits. I don't doubt for a second that Wet Seal is trying to make an example out of these employees, but they have

Obligatory wet seal picture

Making the sign was "unprofessional"? You know what's really unprofessional? Not paying the people who work for you.

People who believe one can live large on unemployment have probably never had to figure out how to live on unemployment.

Actually, employees fired for misconduct cannot always collect unemployment. She would have been able to collect it if WetSeal had left well enough alone and just let her be laid off.
