is erasing a comment shade?

My parents (mostly my mother) were slightly obsessed with feeding me organic hippie food and limiting the demon sugar. And while from a nutrition/pesticide standpoint it was probably good, from a mental health standpoint, it really wasn’t. It’s probably the big reason I find myself looking askance at all the…

My wife’s SIL is like that with her kid, it started out ok with her just putting him on a super healthy diet but went off the rails when she started trying different fads and forcing it on him as well.

Orthorexia is an eating disorder where you’re obsessed with the purity of your food and parents definitely impose it on their children. And Orthorexics are often recovering anorexics.

This woman needs serious psychiatric help. Don’t think jail time is going to be of much use for a woman who inflicts her own disorders on her kids.

i have two pairs of shoes which exhibit this malodorous perambulatory effect.

- Tim Burton, basically.

Oh, FUCK NO. You can’t even cast a diverse group of people in AN IMAGINARY WORLD?!!

I’m 33 and legitimately thought I was the only person on Earth who did this, and have always been extremely self-conscious about it. I have never heard the term gleeking before this thread. How did this happen? I feel like that Gawker guy who never ate pudding or whatever.

To this day, I still tell people that my light is a clapper, just to see if they’ll clap like an asshole. It’s not a clapper, what the fuck are you doing. Hilarious

I thought this too, but now I wonder if this is a hint ... that Radar knows the abuser to be a closeted gay.

We will all be actually dead if it is Tom Hanks.

Please don’t let it be Tom Hanks, which was the name that sprung to my mind. I’d die inside.

“The closeted perv has never come out as gay”

Because he very well may not be; being a child predator /= gay. Abusive sex is about power, not identity.

I commented on this story the last time it came up, and like a sensible person, I came up with about a dozen alternatives within a couple of minutes. I’ll just reiterate a couple here: have her live at the prosecutor’s house ‘til the trial, find her a nice sober living facility and then pay for it, put her up in the…

Can’t find a better alternative? I’ve got one: release her. Oh, another one: get her into a treatment program. You’re a DA, surely you could pull some strings? That’s two. And I’ve only spent ten seconds on it. You should spend at least 20 seconds, since it’s your job and all.

You could send a check or money order to the Washington County Jail. http://www.co.washington.or.us/Sheriff/Jail/HelpInmate/inmate-account-deposits.cfm

He’s doing the same with the election. If (a very weak if) he wins he will say it’s because the US understands is greatness, not that it was rigged in his favor.

Yeah, but I kind of have to give him points here. Saying it’ll be rigged beforehand, then doing badly, then being able to say “I told you so” is something that will go over well with his rabid fanbase. Because then he’ll have just been right the whole time, with something to blame his poor performance on other than…

Give it time.
