My uncle is career military and used to make his kids call him sir. Eventually enough people told him he was being ridiculous that he relented.

he would really prefer me to call him Doctor Lastname

The thing that really bothers me is if he goes by “doctor bobby” then should he be “uncle doctor bobby” and not “doctor uncle bobby”?

Maybe she really liked the Thompson Twins?

It was MOSTLY joking...mostly, because he was always was full of himself and definitely would have enjoyed my doing so. 

My first job was at a walk-through amusement park attraction. You were basically a G-rated insult comic for the entire shift, just standing around fucking with people in line and occasionally doing tours. I’ve always said it’s going to be my retirement job, I had a blast at that gig.

I would have gone a slightly different route. I’d agree to call him “doctor” but I’d tell him that his real last name will never, ever be used. He’d have to basically choose between maintaining our previous arrangement or constantly being referred to as “Dr. Feelgood,” “Dr. Nick Riviera,” “Dr. Demento,” “Dr. Mengele,” …

I’m an adult I should be able to call him Bob (or Dickhead) if I want. Do you agree?

While working the roller coaster seems like a fun summer job, back in the day when I worked at Paramount’s Kings Dominion, the rides people were ALSO tasked with cleaning the bathrooms, and if you’ve ever been in an amusement park bathroom near a roller coaster, it can be unpleasant.

OMG please stahp with the “wet hair” trend, Miley.

And then one day, while the two were in his office, Smith shut the door and tried to grab her. (This is an incident that Warren has spoken of in the past, including, in a fucking incredible move, during the eulogy she gave at Smith’s funeral.)

And people think she can’t go toe to toe with Agent Orange. That’s some…

Today is Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Day, which is an excellent reminder that you never know what a woman has been through and what feelings you might be bringing up when you ask if she’s pregnant. Keep your thoughts to yourself, Anna!

It’s very sad that it has come to this. I believe, and it’s statistically true, that most cops are good people who do a good job.

Farrow was on staff at NBC news. They spiked his Weinstein story so he took it to the New Yorker.

Ronan Farrow has position, power, money, fame, and resources... and he still BARELY got the news of a verifiable monster out to the public.  It’s chilling to consider how many Weinsteins are out there who are not being chased by a journalist in a position to catch them.

Correction: Simone is the greatest female gymnast of all time, whether active or not. This is really not even up for debate.

So I guess they’ll be drug testing her every day since she’s breaking so many records... #GOATINGWHILEBLACK

Heads up! Simone is just 3 medals away from breaking Soviet gymnast Larisa Latynina’s record as the most decorated gymnast in World and Olympic history! Further, if Simone can manage to win 5 golds at the Olympics next year, she will tie Latynina’s record for the most gold gymnastics medals in Olympic history.

At times, I sometimes feel as if the Clapback is not needed. I wonder if we are giving trolls, bigots, racists and downright low-functioning attention whores what they want more then money and power, attention that they can use to fuel their rage and to share with their like-minded kin about how the ‘nergos’ have…

Regarding your reply to Mr. I.Q. genius, all I have to say is...
