So nothing you said actually changes my opinion of him, nor does it defend him, and thus had no reason to exist.

This reminds me of when we weren’t allowed to criticize GWB or else “the terrorists would win.”

Also a reasonable evaluation about why you dont like a particular candidate isn’t fucking infighting. Jesus the drama

The primary is the part where you’re supposed to be infighting. The problems come when you forget to stop arguing after the primary is over.

I dont really have any patience for those who think we can’t have a reasonable discussion about candidates during a primary. We cant have all 50 of them on the ticket come election day. We gotta pick one. So let’s talk it out.

This. He knows how the game is played. Now if Twitch comes out and says “Nah bro, we done with you, bye.” that might change things. But they won’t because money.

I’d also contend that the folding method is not what the “Konmari Method” is even about — it’s the tackling of the broken down categories in a particular order, and the thanking things for having served their purpose/letting go. Everything else is just the putting of stuff away, and I don’t think she’s ever claimed…

Right?! And yet these folk were tripping all over themselves last week when Jez wrote a slightly negative review of one Taylor Swift song. Now what could possibly be the difference between Taylor Swift and Beyoncé. I wonder.

Isn’t it statistically proven that the opposite is actually true, those numbers are going down?

I also got the “Kids” turned up to 11, plus not as gritty as I remember the movie being, vibe to the show.  

ROLLING CLOTHES WAS MY BABY. I feel like they’ve stolen my baby!

But have you heard about rolling your clothes when you pack? I totally invented that.

I mean, I’ve been doing that same technique since long before Kondo was famous. A friend told me that she did it, and the appeal was obvious, so I spent 45 minutes re-folding my clothes and that was it. You can’t copyright “how to organize clothes,” that’s not how that works.

Yeah, I love how these people are like, “she just has good marketing!” And I think, yeah she does, what’s your point?

Agreed. She just took professional organizing to the masses. Most people can’t afford to hire a professional organizer but lots of people have access to the internet. Kondo’s detractors are just mad they didn’t think of it first.

Has Kondo even said she created this method. If you think about it’s folding fucking cloth. I bet tons of people have invented this method all over the world and thought they were the first to make it. So what.

And most turn EVERYTHING into a personal story, anecdote, meeeeee.

Holy fuck these comments...

The tone of these comments seem to be calling her “uppity.” 

She’s basically “meh, yeah, I guess” for most people, plus a smaller rabid fanbase where they just enjoy having something to be rabid over and Bey herself is kinda just the figurehead at this point.  But a huge amount of people sorta-liking you enough to buy at least one of your products, plus a small dedicated rabid…
