All good advice. I’m learning so much today.

Yes! Leaving a family get together takes half an hour.

“You better turn to the side and pat her on the back ‘cause Jesus never hugged nobody like that”

Yeah, I’m glad she got her Dylan moment.

I know it’s on me for not saying that, but I also don’t like awkward situations. I figure between the two, I’ll take the one that doesn’t include a follow-up discussion. Hugging isn’t a big deal for me, it’s just not my favorite, so I’ll do it. My husband’s enormous family does double kisses for greetings and goodbyes…

That may actually be a good tactic to get people to stop hugging me.

I’ve got big’uns too and when men hold my body against them super tight I feel pretty awkward. Then there’s my brother, who hugs me with his body so far from mine that it’s like how I imagine giraffes hug.

I don’t blame her for wanting to hug him, but a lot of people don’t realize that a hug might be more intimate than the other person likes. I don’t like hugging people I don’t know well, but I have a very needy coworker who wants hugs often. I’ll give them to her because I don’t want to be a jerk to an emotional…

My friends don’t do that. They avoid restaurants because they know it’s rude. That’s why I thought they’d like a place like this.

I was thinking of the nudity as a rogue baby moment and not something that happens all the time, but you’re right about health code violations. Maybe I’m desensitized from being around my friends’ kids so much.

Gross and rude.

Sounds like their versions of the story match up, but were perceived differently. Some would be disgusted by a baby flashing its butthole while they’re eating while others would spit out their food laughing.

If her team has concluded that no sexual assault occurred, she should make a definitive statement and help clear Demario’s name. Why still be vague?

I also saw this posted here months ago and have been sharing it with everyone in my life who’s dealing with a person who lacks accountability. My friend even shared it with her abusive, narcissistic ex. It’s beautifully succinct.

I thought they were the same person in the photos above.

That’s so sweet of you to say :)

I hadn’t heard this before but it’s spot on. I copied and sent it to a friend whose narcissistic ex beat her up in a drunken rage and has been stalking her in the 6 months since. He writes her notes that say “How am I still being punished for something I did while I was drunk?” Avoid accountability at all costs.

It doesn’t negate the point of the story, which is that he’s a douche.

Is it Cooper Black?

Kanye probably had an actual shot at Trump’s Cabinet just by hanging around him and kissing his ass.
