I was terrified that he would be assassinated, and that someone would hurt Michelle and the girls. The Secret Service must have at least done well by that family.

Yup, that’s some editing room magic. A producer asked her what she’d say if she hates a dress, this was her response *in general*, and they spliced it to make it look like it was about the specific dress.

That could be her way of saying, “Let me buy you a nice dress so you can get rid of that awful other thing you were wearing.”

I wonder how many people actually knew why he left. If it really is being kept quiet (as it should be), and they released that statement, the ordinary person would assume personal illness or death in the family or something. That’s the kind of thing you’d want to support someone through. If Jezebel can’t independently…

the one thing I find honestly confusing is how did he get elected in the first place? I mean, I get the hatred... but how is he in a position of power when he is so widely hated among his colleagues?

There is no argument, Ted Cruz would be a much worse president. He has flat out said he would never, ever compromise on anything. He has also said in countless stump speeches that he will “Turn this country in to a God fearing one again. God will be the backbone of America”. Let that sink in a bit. This man is hell…

Still wouldn’t vote for him.

I really think people should stop criticizing Sam Smith for what was a simple and understandable slip of the tongue. And I can say that with a little bit of gravitas as the first openly gay man on the internet.

Totally agree. Not clapping because someone didn’t follow the dress code is silly.

I would say that pretty accurately describes the core demographic of esports...

But you don’t find it problematic that, regardless of immaturity or not, it’d basically be abandoning what made it popular and has been keeping people coming back and watching for quite some time?

An employer 100% cannot fire you then publicly call you an ass regardless of how true it may be.

If calling somebody “an ass” in such a manner is acceptable, what makes James Harding’s behaviours unacceptable? Isn’t that just the pot calling the kettle black? When Gabe does it, he gets a pass, but when others do so, they get fired for “being an ass”. Pretty hypocritical if you ask me.

You’re trying to be logical and realistic with someone presenting an idealistic argument.

Angry? Not at all. I just have no real respect for internet trolls that are simply spreading nonsense as a reply. I mean, I may LOL or even star the dumb thing you say but having worked for quite a long time now in quite a few businesses with varying degrees of strict policy levels - it’s just so baffling to see so…

You can fire someone for being “difficult to work with,” rather calling him then ass. You don’t have to pussyfoot around to get rid of a difficult employee, nor do you have to act like an ass yourself. Those are not mutually exclusive concepts. It’s seriously unprofessional and in no way the norm.

Generally people can learn from their mistakes but your suggesting they should be career blacklisted because of them - no. This will always be unprofessional because of something like that.

No, countless other professional descriptions would do - “James has been difficult to work with”, “James behavior has been problematic”, “James displayed unprofessional behavior” are ALL professional alternatives to “James is an ass”. And if you somehow can't peace together a professional way to say something, then…

nor unprofessional
