This is what has been bothering me about Republican small government arguments. To be pro-small government, you have to genuinely believe that people are fundamentally good and they will help each other out. THIS IS THE OPPOSITE OF CAPITALISM. Obviously it’s not in a fast food restaurant’s best interest to provide…

Why? If the person is super-new, you have not yet fully trained that person anyway. So another new employee doesn’t make that much of a difference. On the other hand, if they have been with the company for over three years, a new employee hired to compensate will almost always have a lower productivity, having to…

To be fair, I agree with her that the state shouldn’t mandate that companies pay people on mat leave, only that they hold their jobs/not penalize them professionally. The state social safety programs should replace (at least part of) income, as in Canada and most of Europe.

It really really won’t make the country explode I promise. Rampaging hordes of power mad pregnant women haven’t taken over the rest of the world, we would have noticed.

Not to have sex (unless you are married to a Republican and not working or the secret mistress of one).

I think my favorite Trump fan excuse was when one of the Trump supporters argued that Trump was really referring to the stigmata — the blood flowing from Jesus Christ’s wrists and ankles after they were pierced during the crucifixion.

Tell us more about this haunted house. Is it in business now? Did he have customers all year? Was there a pizza knives themed part of the house? Where was this place?

Only if there is tiramisu for desert

The ultimate mega upgrade story is one that happened to a friend back in the late ‘80s. At the time British Airways had a policy that stated, “if we bump you from your flight, we’ll get you on the next available equivalent or better seat.”

Also, protip: If your friend is going to study abroad, don’t keep reminding him/her about how dangerous it is, it’s mean and you sound like a racist.

My morning starts with a game that I like to call. “Where did I put my glasses last night?” I totally use my phone as an alarm, because I can’t see anything when I get up so there is no temptation to play games and scroll through my facebook feed. I have to guess where the snooze button is.

I tried running in the mornings. You know what happened? I ran slowly, felt like shit, and then fell asleep in front of my computer at 2pm after eating all the chocolate out of the vending machine. Exercise in the morning is for psychopaths. (I am slightly joking about the psychopath thing, but mornings and I are not…

Use my phone as an alarm clock? Fehh. I would never. I use my IPad as an alarm clock because HOW AM I GONNA SEE ALL THE DISCOURAGEMENT ON THE INTERNET WITH BLEARY MORNING EYES on a tiny little phone screen?

I don’t know why, but the condescention of this comment just makes me barf.

Hate to be a buzzkill ladies, but what about breast, cervical, and liver cancer? (Spoiler alert: risk of all is increased with prolonged use of OCPs)

Blake Lively speaking hyper-intellectualized Woody Allen dialogue is the funniest thing i can imagine, I’m very excited.

Seriously. If you need to gain and are rich why not eat a pound of chocolates a day and drink wine? Or triple cream cheese? Or milkshakes?

Same. I am quite sure that the only person giving any of this that much thought is Taylor Swift.
