...Except that you didn’t say “mentally retarded” – you said “a retardy.” You used it as a slur. Referring to “a retarded person” is one thing, but calling someone “a retard” is completely unacceptable, and “a retardy” is just deplorable.

By the way, he was in a documentary called Wild Man Blues almost 20 years ago, and he had exactly the same narrative about himself and his relationship with Soon Yi (describing her eating out of trash cans, pointing out how he allows her to travel the world, etc.). Nice to see that his view of their relationship, and…

He’s annoying. A Try Hard.
16 years ago it seemed like it blew the industry open wide.
My dislike of Anthony Bourdain’s big bag of bullshit is EPIC.
It’s like fraternity hazing, only longer.
I hate hate hate the macho culture of haute cuisine.

Especially with that whole SATC 2 movie plot line about Samantha and…
Good for you and thanks for sharing your story. I had bilateral breast cancer two years ago. Two different cancers ! I always knew my boobs were special.
That was my first thought: “Wrong music city”. If he’d done something like this in Minneapolis or L.A. or NYC or New Orleans — and also Not Fox — my guess is, as Doc Brown might’ve said, “Everything would’ve been fine.”
Women and POC are commodities.
im always thrown by it and that is 1000000% on ME
