What I would show every goddamn anti-vaccine person:

It's the selfishness that gets me. But part of the problem is that vaccination has been so successful that people have simply forgotten how bad these diseases once were. I mentioned in another comment that one of my mother's cousins had polio and it left him with minimal use of his legs. And he was lucky because he…

Thank god for you! What's ironic is they're depending on herd immunity (even if they don't understand it) and were it not for sensible parents like you, they'd be dealing with all these terrible diseases.

Oh, I didn't take your comment as a dis on the Fairies series at all! I don't have kids and I watch the series! I confess, I dubious, but the first movie won me over. I think it's a shame that Disney doesn't commit to this message across all their platforms. Phooey. The fairies have such a good message for girls,…

You're only as rich as the houses you rob...

The Disney Fairies movies are much better fare than the Princesses, IMHO . I will say that the Fairies were created as a bridge line between the Princesses and Hannah Montana demographic. (Or whomever they eventually get to replace Miley Cyrus.) But I like that Tinkerbell makes stuff, and each kind of fairy has…

I agree with you for the most part, except that sometimes (more often than people realize) people have accidents that leave them with long-term issues.

So, the pot should never be taken out of? I thought the pot was there to help people when they got ill. And though I'm certain you're currently the picture of health, you do know that any one of us is just an accident or unfortunate DNA moment away from needing to access that insurance pot.

This isn't even math, it's arithmetic. It's cyphering, ffs.

Yep.

FYI: THIS IS WHAT I SAID:

Actually, they did pick the correct strain. It's just the strain that's out there this year is especially nasty. Also, there's an epidemic of Whooping Cough because, guess what, some people don't want to vaccinate their little darlings against common childhood killers anymore. So, especially nasty flu, especially…

Well, in all fairness, she deserves it.

Hey, but she can stay home from work!

Oh, I know that's true. It's just the higher up they are, the more cynical I assume their position is.

I once accidentally overpaid a bill to Sprint. (I misplaced a decimal point paying online and didn't realize it until the next month.) It was abundantly clear what had happened, and all I wanted them to do was refund the overage — which was a lot of money. (I'd been with Sprint for eleven years and had been happy…

Okay, so I know that all the usual insane Republican bullshit is going on right now, but holy fuck, stories on Paul Ryan and this dipshit in the same day is enough to make me wanna curl up in the fetal position. Ye gods.

I didn't realize you were nothing more than a trolling moron, my bad. Bored with you now.

I tend to agree with you about Ryan. There's something about him that pings my, "Holy shit, I don't ever want to be in a room alone with him" radar. Or maybe it's just that he has crazy eyes.

But don't you think they really don't want to overturn Roe? This is a red meat issue for them. They get Roe overturned, how do they continue to string the hardcore anti-abortion/anti-women crowd along?
