I've thought about doing this, not a whole family, just a kid. And I was gonna use pics of my sister's kid, so it would be so easy. As a single person, I am constantly made to work more hours and treated as if I am not important when compared to people with kids - many of my coworkers get time off and get a pass…

But you needed to put me in my place and I accept that.

You clearly were bitching. I didn't need to see it because you were doing it.

Mark is gay.
Also, stop bitching: The title should have been an obvious giveaway, to say nothing of the "NSFW" tag.

I always enjoy it when a commenter is the only one doing the thing he simultaneously is condemning and telling everyone not to do. Your high horse only has one good leg, bud.

This is a legitimately sad event, but your first reaction was to play the moral police and tell people on a routinely crass message board how to react. You know the crowd on here, but you swooped in to make judgement BEFORE anyone even said anything.

she's not stealing anything though. In fact she seems to have always done a good job of performing music of these genre without being a dick about it, or mocking it. The difference, IMO (as someone whose culture has been mocked, appropriated and stepped on by every bro with a "tribal" tattoo), is whether you practise…

I see what you did there.

I AM on crazy pills, and I felt comparatively sane compared to Kathleen Hale.

I wish there were a word to describe food that's non-industrial, small-batch, and generally made with care and attention by a human person, but without the twee, vomitous affectation that artisanal has. Because I am, by and large, a fan of a****anal food. Lots of it is good and interesting and worth putting in your…

I don't think it's her gender - it's her powerful connections and friends and their potential influence in publishing. No one who wants to be published someday wants to speak out too harshly against someone close to Frank Rich.

You definitely don't need to use your real name to review things online. I'm also a user on Goodreads, and while I do use my real name (it's linked to my FB), plenty of people don't. And they don't have to. There are tons of reasons people wouldn't use their real names - maybe they review mainly erotica and don't want…

I couldn't understand how anybody could be neutral about this. This woman is out of control.

I can't believe people are defending her actions. I felt like i was on crazy pills when I read that part.

"The only evidence against 'Blythe' is coming from Hale."

I think I was going to explode if you guys didn't cover this story. Thank you for giving it the attention it deserves. Kathleen Hale is a deeply disturbed person. It's horrifying to see so many people—including writers I thought highly of—defend her actions. If she had been a man, no one would be calling her piece…

Seriously. Stalking is a crime. Posting a negative anonymous review online is not. Plus, I wouldn't trust Kathleen Hale is 100% telling the truth here. The only evidence against 'Blythe' is coming from Hale.

Well, that explains why the blogger was anonymous. Because apparently authors are fucking nuts.

"You're fat," I shouted. And then I poured the entire bottle of hydrogen peroxide on her head.

"Stupid cops. Everybody knows sirens don't work on studs."
