“PLUS he’ll almost certainly die before she will, leaving her most of all that money he acquired.”

So you believe this guy when he says she had a shitty attitude. Absent any evidence at all, you automatically believe the guy who is behaving unprofessionally. You believe the guy with racist rants all over his FB page. You believe the guy who, according to the wedding planner, was drunk and belligerent at the…

Nut allergies, man. We had a family friend with a severe walnut allergy. A coworker of his brought in cookies from home that his wife made. When our friend asked if they had nuts, the guy flipped the cookie over and back, looked at it, didn’t see nuts, and said no. Turns out there were ground nuts in the flour. Our…

Good chance he’s a cop.

Shocking news to nobody: Some guys get a woody watching cops hurt people.

“Also, rescuers generally avoid mauling and/or eating you except in the most dire situations.”

“They heard crunching in the woods at night,” Marker said. “They thought it was rescuers but no one came. Then they thought it was bears.”

2 acres? Yikes.

Yes, this. And the unbelievably dumbfuck "scripts" you are supposed to recite, because God forbid you be allowed to ring up somebody's jeans using polite, to-the-point language like one normal, decent human being interacting with another. Nope. You can't be trusted to ad lib it. Some shmuck in a mid-level corporate…

It's probably a lot simpler than that. They probably just get excited about hurting women and were happy to have the excuse.

Mine is four too. She's already absorbed the message that her hair is inferior to straight blond hair (Thanks, Frozen!). Can't wait for her to find out that it might also be wrong her face shape.

Seriously, though: How did that guy up there not have time to duck?

Forget his hair. What is with his dull, dead, stupid eyes and his spinsterish pursed lips?

Well that's a terrible thought. But you do have to wonder. The news articles are all quoting the president saying that Sweet Briar had no real endowment at all....

Sweet Briar? That's so crazy and upsetting.

Marcy's a nice lady - though actually not pro-choice, FYI.

I get you. And while catcalling and unwanted advances are nothing but startling or threatening, being actually desired is definitely flattering. What I am trying to say is that a great big absence of something is there for women who get harassed and for those who don't. And it's this absence of human regard that is…

I guess that the thing you get to experience if you have experienced both (and I wasn't the bombshell in that story, it was my Mom) is what that "validation" means. It's not really "you are seen as a human person" validation, it's "you are noticed as something I want to jam my dick in" validation. So while it's sad,…

Yeah, but there's stupid, and then there's stupid.

Thank you, thank you, thank you this thread. Not only were my stuffed animals on a rotation so none felt left out and sad, but I used to actually cry bitterly about the Christmas trees we didn't pick that got left behind.
