Thank you.

Would I get upset over being strip-searched? Always.

I say they should have gone with Fraggle...

Gawker's arm Valleywag is filled with Luddites who hate "apps." Then you have the pro-Union side who hate when shitty products are usurped by better ones and people lose jobs.

It's getting attention in part because it's a new tech company that's been taking off exponentially in terms of market value, and a lot of the backlash has been over the way Uber has (mis)handled these complaints.

This kind of thing happens with cabs all the time but you will never hear about it here.

Honestly, I think the biggest thing is barriers to entry and regulation. Yeah, Uber does a background check now, but drivers can get around that anyways.

... I know you mean well, but this is the most useless sentiment I can imagine. Do you really think that the impulses and opinions that drove these men to commit these crimes are in any way related to impulses that you and all men share? Then why even mention feeling bad about it. I don't feel guilty every time I…

I don't want to blow up anybody's spot, but I'm friendly with/think highly of a close friend of hers.

WHY is Jez posting still frames from videos of assaults on teenage girls? Editing her face out is not good enough. Did you learn nothing from your Benghazi post?

It does absolutely nothing for me except irritate me somewhat, but I can't knock it either. I actually just played this exact video for someone very close to me who has PTSD and a host of other health issues, and it put him into instant relaxation mode. He can't take Xanax because he has end-stage liver disease, so…

This is exactly my interpretation as well. They shot a bunch of crazy shit (some of which it sounds like he wasn't even present for), then when they looked at it put together (by other people) realized "oh no, this is very wrong, this can't happen" and planned to trash it.

Yeah, my interpretation was the three of them were dicking around with a camera and shot some weird footage they never intended to release as a public collaboration and then someone edited it together, released it and attached their names to it. Which he isn't happy about now. To me it's odd the Sturmgruppe people are…

In my experience, when people go through a years long bad relationship, the end of the relationship, while traumatic, takes less time to bounce back from because the people had been broken up in their hearts for ages. I've also seen many people who got out of long shitty relationships, recovered, and immediately met…

+1000. My husband and I got engaged after dating for two months. (For purposes of full disclosure, we didn't get married for another 1.5 years - it takes time to plan a wedding.) We didn't do it because we were afraid, but rather because we had experienced a lot and knew we had spotted exactly what we had wanted.

I completely agree with what you have posted. I have no idea how much of Jackie's story is truth, but no matter the percentage, she is in need of some counseling, and in a support setting, there should be no questioning of a victim's story. I can't imagine some attending an alcoholic's anonymous meeting and being told…

I think you have a point RE journalism. To me this looks like Rolling Stone made the conscious decision to run the story without fact checking it which, well-intentioned as it may have been, ended up having some very bad consequences and now it seems like they are throwing Jackie under the bus for its own editorial…
