Wow, this is not a nice comment to make about another woman.

It’s not a dumb tip to me. I find that when I write a thank you note, it gives me time to really think about what I appreciate about the present I was given and to reflect on what that person means to me. When I receive a thank you note, I am touched that someone appreciated my gesture enough to take the time to tell…
How does a child learn anything if not by rules? I learned to use a toilet because it was a rule in my house that I could not longer poop behind the couch. Learning to say ‘thank you’ takes a rule at first because it is a slow realisation to actually feel gratitude.
Because screw you, Environment, is why.
My problem with drivers who text/call whilst they’re driving is that they are all just like you—absolutely convinced that they are doing it super-smartly and everyone else is doing it stupidly. “I only text if the light is long!” “I only check my notifications when I’m driving a clear stretch of road!” “I only take…
I don't think it's really that much. Dog owners, for example, easily clock up that much time in walking if they have active dogs. I take mine out for a morning walk before work that is between 45 minutes to an hour, then again in the evening for an hour. I figure if we do it because there are tiny animals dependent…
Not everyone puts a lot of money into their bike. Plenty of them buy it used or borrow or whatever. Why does their inability to pay a great deal of money into a lock negate their right to not have something stolen?
Libertarian, huh? Good for you. Call me in twenty years and let me know how that worked out for you. Don't call collect, though. I don't like to help out my fellow human being.
Oh, I don't think he tried. I think he flat out did. It's nice—I always feel more comfortable when I find out how many of my peers would blame me for a crime being enacted against me.
How exactly are your examples more valid? Putting a lock on a bike—even a cheap one that doesn't bear up to the Lifehacker's gallery of opinions—is an attempt to thwart theft. Lying down on a road is not even someone doing their own normal thing, it's just plain dumb. Similarly, giving alcohol to a drunk invites…
That's your take-away point? Really? Someone can tell the world at large that they 'deserve' to have their bike stolen and that's okay, but 'twit' is where you get your feathers tweaked? Sure, why not. Makes good sense.
Seriously? How does that logic work? Can we use it in conjunction with the ever-popular, "If you wear that dress, you deserve to get raped" or "If you walk in that neighbourhood at night, you deserve to get mugged"?
