Let me clarify: she is an acquaintance of mine and a close friend of the host so I'm not sure how to approach it. The host asked us to choose from a list and when she only picked dessert and gravy, the host divided the remaining items between the 2 of us. So she kept her 2 and we each got 5.

Potential horror story: My 2 friends and I are having a TG potluck. The host is making a green bean casserole, biscuits, bread and a salad and providing soda and juice. I am making a turkey, mashed potatoes and a corn casserole and bringing wine. The third person said she is bringing a pie and gravy. I am beyond…

And eff JT for making fun of her mother's accent. And he got it wrong. Stupid ass.

This Lucian approves! Yall can be second baddest :)

He offered a true apology for behaving differently than he felt? Do you mean that he knew he wasn't feeling you in that way but continued to lead you on? Because that doesn't make him all that great. Certainly, he isn't The Worst Guy In The World but acting like that and then suggesting you be "friends" is a bit much.

And not only through getting a vaccine. There are also physicians, health center directors, vaccine campaign managers and researchers in underdeveloped countries whose efforts are being funded through his foundation and know his name very well.

Amen. He has been truly instrumental in the polio eradication effort as well. Something most Westerners don't even realize is still an issue in many parts of the world.

So much FUG!

It's never been a problem. I've had people laugh at my request but they've always been nice about it. I left DC 2 years ago with a gigantic box of Georgetown cupcakes and everyone from the TSA agents and passengers on the plane, could not take their eyes off of my box. I put it into the overhead bin and slept with one…

Am I the only one who travels frequently with massive amounts of food?

Barf. I had to defriend someone whose Fb status in 2008 was: It's called a White House for a reason. Ick!

Just wanted to send you some internet hugs. It's been about a year since I have been there and you just need to take good care of yourself (eat, exercise, sleep, hang around with people who love and care for you), allow yourself to grieve and wail and cry and be unreasonable. Also, be sure to have no contact with him.…

The fuck did I just read? She doesn't sound empowered by her choice, she seems scared and unsure.

It went wrong when I decided to stand there and listen to that bullshit. Never again.

Yup. I was floored. And when I replied with what I would have responded had I been the person grandma insulted, she told me that her grandma would never have had a conversation with me anyway. Because, monkeyblackinferiortakingourjobsetc.

I have some faith in the younger generations but if anyone thinks that these old racists haven't passed on some nasty bigotry to the younger folks, they are sadly mistaken.

I must ask, respectfully: Does this make any actual sense to you or are you joking? You treat people differently but with the same amount of respect?! Is that like separate but equal facilities?

That's because it wasn't marketed exclusively to young women. This is manufactured outrage for nothing in particular.

Is it really necessary to call the beverage cloying and an illness inducer? This entire article is bullshit and needlessly insulting.

OMG elephants! I love them so much. Which is why I have a glass paperweight with genuine elephant droppings in it, from South Africa.
