The RNC has been a near literal shit-show.

Man, now I want HRC to appoint Biden just so we can see Uncle Joe handily kick Pence's ass in the VP debate.

I’m most suspicious of the schools at the top of the list, but it’s not at all outside the realm of possibility that the schools at the bottom of the list, especially those with no campus housing, did not in fact have any reported rapes in one particular calendar year.

I wonder if the higher range victims were the ones that other adults knew about and covered up (like the victim from 74 who told Paterno...)? I honestly can’t let my mind think about the other options too much.

Jason Sudeikis in “Race” and Nick Kroll in “Loving.” What on earth is going on, Hollywood?

This story was the straw that broke my back, and motivated me to write to my congressman and state assemblywoman encouraging them to support legislation extending statute of limitations for adults who sexually abuse children, supporting legislation that would hold the abusers’ protectors accountable, and supporting

Did they take a Wahmbulance home?

I worked a wedding where the couple were both widowed and were in their late 40's/early 50's, and they used “When I’m 64" to cut the cake. It was super cute and made everyone laugh.

Is that the one that’s the chords of Marvin Gaye’s Let’s Get it On with a different melody on top?

It seems as though people only know that part so one of the drunk groomsmen can relive his little league glory days, and ignore the rest of the song where the girl makes the guy promise to marry her before she’ll have sex with him, and then the guy wishes for death to escape the marriage.

Oh that fucking Butterfly Kisses song. It sends the same shivers up my spine as that Christmas Shoes monstrosity.

Lol. Yes, I am! Thank you for correcting!

I do Somewhere Over the Rainbow and Forever Young in between theme songs from the shows he watches.

There are also some goddamn AWFUL songs that make the “parent dance lists.” My dad and I danced to Rod Stewart’s "Forever Young", but my backup choice was Paul Simon’s "Father and Daughter." My husband and his mom ended up dancing to Carole King’s “You’ve Got a Friend”but I vetoed this terrible Backstreet Boys song

I walked down the aisle to Ben Fold’s The Luckiest, but my mom’s the music director at the church where I was married, so I had a bit of leeway there. I was prepared to defend it by calling it a riff on Canon in D, or noting that it was commissioned for a wedding scene in a movie. I know of some super strict churches

The Book of Love by the Magnetic Zeros is a good one (as is the longer and more symphonic cover by Peter Gabriel).

I worked for a catering hall around 2004-2007ish, and heard those two fucking Edwin McCain songs as the first dance songs at every other wedding. I’m sure those have now been replaced by Jason Mraz (the one listed above and “Lucky”). Mildly off topic, I don’t understand why people are still obsessed with playing

My cousin, who has a sister named Jen, married a woman named Jen. Wife Jen decided to change her last name, so sister Jen suggested that she (the sister) should be called “Jen the First.”

Why is it always the rare false accusation (this one, Duke rape case, etc?) that seem to get the most publicity? It undermines the real crimes and leads to our justice system being cynical towards actual victims. Fuck this guy, and fuck people like him.

Hmm, that lovely poem is missing something ... maybe about how the person most likely to die from a gun is the gunowner? Maybe something about how in the ensuing panic, they'll probably be more likely to hurt someone with friendly fire than take out the assailant?
