A woman I grew up with is a secret anti vaxxer, and her mother is a nurse. This woman has 2 sons on the spectrum and one with serious respiratory problems. None of them are vaccinated, but they've all had those yeast and allergy tests you send off yourself and are on special diets and vitamin regimens.

So your sister's a rebel. That is a sad thing to rebel against—a sensible upbringing.
Thanksgiving is going to be so much fun! You should feign a cough and bring a Tamiflu piñata.
I'm so sorry. The thing I can't wrap my mind around is that even IF vaccines cause autism, I would still rather have an autistic child than watch it die of a preventable illness. I'm pretty sure dead is always the worst case scenario.
My nephew's mom is an antivaxxer. She used to be a nurse who worked with sick kids. Boggles the mind.
My sister's kids were put in foster homes. Two of my nephews went to a woman who was like your sister and properly loved and cared for my nephews. I am so grateful to people like your sister who are wonderful people with Jupiter-sized hearts.
FedEx didn't ruin your Christmas, a single employee of FedEx did. Just like Fedex didn't screw up Xmas because an employee forgot to latch up his truck - there is no sense giving FedEx a bad name or blame for people error that could happen to any other delivery service (while I prefer UPS I've never had either give me…
To those of you who post puppy pictures in these threads in order to "make people feel better". STOP HUGBOXING. This is real life. There will be violence, poverty, rapes and greed. When you post cute pictures you also derail the conversation. If you get "triggered" by seeing the photo and this post (no blood or gore…
Oh my god. Go lay down; you're delerious.
Same. I worked all over the country in multiple industries' call centers. At a large TV-programming service I was doing tech support on night shift. From about 3-4am, though, we took calls about PPV signups in the hour between the swing shift getting off work and the early-morning shift arriving. Everybody in the…
As someone who has actually had to deal with this kind of thing from other men, when you flat-out say you're not interested, especially in "fuck off" terms, then you get "wow bitch, HEY EVERYONE LOOK AT WHAT A BITCH THIS GIRL IS, I WAS NICE TO HER AND SHE TOLD ME TO FUCK OFF!!!" and then you get people telling you to…
The other week I was in moderate traffic in town behind a dude that opened his door and spit every time we came to a stop. Wtf? I mean, ultimately spit is less bad than actual garbage, but still, who does that? And what does he do when there isn't a red light every block? It was nasty.
YES! umm that filter is made of fiberglass and will be there forever unless someone picks it up. smone has to pick it up just throw it away! (i yelled at my co-worker about this just last week—she didn't know that they wouldn't "biodegrade because its just paper!" ugggh)
Yes. Why do people think cigarettes are some kind of exception to littering rules? It's not like they're any more likely to biodegrade than any other piece of trash when thrown on a sidewalk. Gross and rude.
As a smoker I can't abide other smokers who perpetuate the stereotype of the inconsiderate smoker. I promise we aren't all that person that smokes next to you without a care and then just throws their butt on the ground. :/
This fall, two television shows starring Latinas, and featuring American Latina culture, made it to primetime. In Cri…
The scene where Drew Barrymore is walking out of that asshole's castle because she FUCKING SAVED HERSELF while whats-his-name was riding up to "rescue" her was a defining moment for my budding feminist self. EVER AFTER 4 EVA.
What's the process/protocol for being on GT? I've been on Jez forever, but can't even find GT anymore.
I don't know if the underlying allegations are true or not, but in Bill Cosby's defense he is extremely senile. I saw him getting interviewed by Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert in the past few months and it was so bad I had to shut them both off. He rambled, could not or would not answer basic questions, and was…
