Shim had to leave training last month for multiple days after she was beaten by a coach

I thought the same thing. I also thought about my best friend’s mum mistaking my husband for my dad. She has Alzheimer’s. I am wondering if Quincy Jones may not be operating at 100% capacity now. While I do not dispute the veracity of anything he says, I do think his decision to happily and openly discuss subjects…

Next up, recognizing they are actual human beings instead of ambulatory clothes mannequins! Progress!

The recent study that identified an extreme dip in literacy percentages in kids in Flint is horrifying. I would not be surprised when diseases like MS, ALS, Parkinsons, etc. start cropping up over the next few decades. Flint water is a neurotoxic gift that will keep on giving for generations, even if they do…

I thought the same thing. Not only was the guy molesting them, but he was not treating their actual injuries either- basically setting them up for a lifetime of health problems due to untreated injury on top of the trauma of being molested.

I would like to propose people send him toy soldiers, maps, model sets of military vehicles, recordings of military marching bands, GI Joe figurines and any other manner of toys that are related to the military. Just flood the guy with stuff to help him play soldiers and war. Maybe invite him to a weekend LARPing…

That jumped out at me too. She lived in terror every day and quietly went about her life taking precautions to reduce risk and strategizing every move to try to keep herself and her kids safe. By herself, or with family help only. She, and so many other women, know that a restraining order doesn’t deter their violent…

These are people we refer to as “Don’t drink the shampoo” people at our house- based on a bottle of shampoo with those very words. You know that someone drank the shampoo because no one told them not to, and then they sued the company because they got sick.

No! There are some words that they pronounce weirdly and others where you’d think they should, but sound perfectly normal.

Was it the invite to a Landmark event that earned your friend the title “former”?

There were tons of Dutch folk who settled in S Ontario after WW II, so I am sure their speech patterns and pronunciation bled into the general population a bit. Kids absorb so much. When I was little it would only take me two weeks to pick up a Scots accent when visiting my gran and granda- both of whom had incredibly…

Chewie has his priorities straight. Chewie is a gentleman of the first water who is also very handsome and you should be thankful he consented to live with you.

Ha! No. I would be ABSOLUTELY delighted to have Jeff Goldblum as my mother.

It’s regional accent in my husband’s case. Southern Ontario, to be precise. His whole family uses a flat “a”.

A friend of mine got “invited” to a Landmark thing and she said it was fucking bizarre. They tried to make her “sign out” when she decided to leave early due to boredom/being skin crawlingly creeped out. She felt so intimidated by the “You can’t leave before you sign out” people she gave a fake name and phone number…

To my shame, I did not know of this particular flaw till after we were married. He managed to hide it for 5 years before he ruined everything.

AGREED!

They sure are! We have a guy right now who has the fluffiest squishiest white belly that just demands you squeeze him till he complains.

Can Yakkety Sax be on your set list? Maybe to play him on as he approaches the podium?

Jesus. His “after” picture makes him almost look like Rob Ford. And so help me, it’s an improvement.
