Can I accept the premise and ask WHY someone would want to raise a kid that is 50% Shelton? Like, he’s the high school hangaround that didn’t want to shell out for Trojan brand and then stops taking your calls.

okay :) having 30 years experience in never being serious, I can usually tell.

I can’t tell, are we being sarcastic about Blue Crush. Because I unsarcastically love both the original article & the movie.

We could call it like, Dinette or something. Bitchin in the Kitchen?

Ok, except 15-20% is a normal tip. You should always be tipping that, even when it’s sunny and all you ordered were appetizers and water w/lemon.

LOVE the “don’t reply all” people- you just replied all to say don’t reply all!

I love that it’s the dessert plate that stuck out to you- wtf is a butter plate? Butter comes in sticks that you hold and mush onto your english muffin and then wrap back up.

“Gaslighting” is my favorite catchphrase. I use it constantly, just because I know how few people know what it means. I’m really irritating that way.

Well, that part was sarcastic. Regardless of who wrote it, Hillary probably shouldn’t be relying on cliches and empty campaign stunts to appeal to Hispanic voters. (or ANY voter!)

When I first started reading, this whitey-white girl was thinking “man, that’s a little, I don’t know, offensive. Right?”

It sort of goes to the “new country” problem, right? We don’t have the thousands of years of history together as a nation. 100 years later, the Irish are still learning what it means to live next door to Italians. This creates discord that doesn’t exist within Ireland or Italy. I don’t think we’ve had enough time to…

Was discussing recently, and one of my friends proposed that the American society melting pot has created a more divisive population vs. other countries that are more homogeneous in culture/population.

Sort-of unrelated, but the best thing to eat before drunkenly puking is mashed potatoes. That shit comes right back up.

You’re right, I don’t know what it’s like to be him. But I can say from my own experience, I’ve trained myself not to use certain words that have become “taboo” since I was a kid. It’s possible and I wish more people would try rather than get angry/intoxicated and mouth off before apologizing they “didn’t mean it!”.…

I just can’t equate dick (or jerk or alligator breath) with the n-word and f*****. Especially when he said it to a gay person in an “angry” way. He was being homophobic. In the recesses of his mind, being gay is something worthy of being called out for. (IE: bad)

There is a historical context there that those kids are ignorant of. That’s their excuse and hopefully something that will be remedied as they age.

I don’t have many chances to tell my “first time I had to catch/kill a mouse” story.

This is amazing.

I don’t know, it seems from the facts you laid out it’s pretty clear you did kick him. You’re lucky he took it easy on you.
