My problem was not necessarily believing that Holden’s plan was better than Ashford’s, but just that it was a better Plan A.
Strait also doesn't get much to work with. Holden is as cookie cutter as possible. When he was freaking out at multiple times he nailed it.
For Ethel, I have:
*checks self*
That’s exactly my issue with this relationship, that he only is in love with the idea of her and not the person she is. Any guy who brags about being with “the hottest girl in the world” south of high school clearly isn’t in love with who she is as a person
You’re right - some people with BPD do experience euphoria and other symptoms that aren’t exclusive to bipolar. Getting bored of the faux outrage from internet doctors who forget we’re not just avatars and have real-life experiences and shit.
Agreed. She didn’t even sell a swastika. She sold a sunburst pattern that had a dozen jagged lines in it. The reaction was absurd.
Can we stop giving the Nazis credit for symbols they stole?
I don’t think you can make a narcissistic sociopath into a movie without them claiming glory for themselves. It’s sort of their thing
What medicine are you talking about? This would be a great story if she ripped off the NY rich and feckless and took the money up to the Bronx or Newburgh or Yonkers. She scammed the money and spent it on getting her genitals waxed. She’s garbage. The only reason people want to see this (I don’t) would be to revel in…
Exactly. And if XXXTiddledick was actually truly changing and trying to change. Like so many of you stans in the greys were so concerned about. That girl would not have had to get on go fund me to pay for her eye surgery. He would take that money and pay for it. And pay for her housing and therapy, education and what…
It’s a deflection tactic. More often seen coming from someone trying to draw attention away from something they do not want seen. I don’t have any stats, but I’m pretty sure that innocent people don’t employ that one, so much.
I don’t read anything about a mutually toxic relationship in his statement. Even if he did claim that to be the case I fail to see how it can be “mutual” when the power dynamics are so clearly unbalanced (he’s 20 years older, to start).
Interesting note: He wasn’t there. Just saw parts of it in the dailies. “I’m guilty of not realizing how deeply upsetting that was for Jessica,” Hurwitz admitted. “I heard about it and saw parts of it in the dailies, although the part I saw didn’t seem that—I don’t know—momentous. But fights and outbursts always start…
Yeah, but remember, 16 years ago you were young, dumb, and naive, as we all are at that age. But Foxx was around 34 OR 35. If true, and I doubt that it is, he should have known better. Really hoping this one is a rare false allegation.
Except 16 year old allegations are often what lead to someone coming forward with 6 month or 6 day old allegations. I’m not saying that will necessarily be the case here, but it takes one person to pull the plug on the dam and more likely than not it’s going to be someone who sat on their information for years and is…
Ah, the Cosby Defense (TM).
“The alleged incident was not reported to law enforcement in 2002, or at any other time in the last 16 years until last Friday because the incident never happened,”
Speaking as someone who interacts with (frequently crazy) members of the public at work, you really do have to depersonalize it. If I took to heart everything a “customer” screamed at me, I’d have a nervous breakdown.
