Sorry ladies. Kevin, Creed, Erin, Toby, among others. While they didn't get to be major characters over the course of the show definitely had their own moments that made it amazing to watch!

When did autism become such a boogeyman? Is it such a horrific disorder that you'd make your kid drink bleach in the vain hopes of curing it? If we want to stop parents fro resorting to these quack cures, we should stop portraying autism as the end of the world for a child.

Autism isn't a disease; it's a neurodevelopmental disability (and yes, genetic). Also, most autistic people are adamant about not wanting to be "cured" in any form. Other than that, I agree with you.

There's a related madness referred to as Miracle Mineral Solution 2, which is the idea that the same benefits can also come about with calcium hypochlorite, also known as pool shock. It's dry chlorine, essentially. I work at a pool supply store, and periodically we get a rash of people coming in trying to buy it for…

The thing that really drives me crazy is that a lot of these people are not even desperate parents of kids with severe autism. At least I can understand that logic might go out the window if you're in early stages of accepting such a diagnosis. But of all the people I know who buy this b.s., none of them have autistic…

The thing is, there actually ISN'T an autism epidemic. People treat it as "oh, there's been a HUGE rise in autism in the last 30 years!"

Exactly. I'm having a party with my family, I would hope someone passing by would have enough respect to not invite themselves in.

This isn't the end of the world, no. But if some assholes ate food and drank liquor that I paid for and then posed for pictures and whatnot? That shit is definitely going on Facebook & they're getting called out. Worst thing in the world? Nah, not at all. But I would've done the exact thing the couple did.

Sounds like they were all up in every other picture, doing some sort of Forrest Gump gag. That, more than the price of the food and drink has ling term irritation potential. I might think it funny, but no doubt many people, understandably might feel some twinge of irritation going back through their wedding pictures,…

On the one hand, I'd say to lighten up if they didn't cause any problems. On the other hand, they probably cost the bride and groom $100 or so each. I'd be pretty pissed at some strangers taking $200 from me.

A lot of comments I've seen on other sites about this seem to be telling the woman to lighten up and that it wasn't a big deal — but when you pay for food and drinks and some people who weren't even invited come in and have that food and those drinks, you're paying for them. These people knew they weren't invited to…

My younger sister is WAAAY more successful than I am, but we're Irish twins so maybe my few months head start is canceled out...

Or maybe people define success differently. Success doesn't always equate to money or fame or power. And it can be defined as being happy or being creative or helping people or any other number of things that are not represented here. So maybe some first born girls are more "ambitious" but it does not make them more…

What kind of "friends"would bash on a guy who posts pro-feminist blurbs on FB? Hell, this guy sounds so evolved I want to friend him. He'd be my new BFF. Unfortunately, I know his situation and have myself unfriended people I found to be unenlightened, one of whom faulted feminism as the root cause of rape culture.…

You can bill your time for showing human decency to and/or feigning interest in women, PoC and LGBT folks.... That doesn't strike you as problematic?

The fact that by identifying that some people are "diverse hires" you're putting people into categories and othering them. This memo doesn't say "consider how you view culture, race, gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation, etc. when interacting with coworkers." It doesn't say "spend time with coworkers you haven't met…

How could anybody associate with some body who was so horrible to a friend and NOT be bothered by it? It should matter. They're condoning what he did to her.

Er.....he did something really shitty to her and that SHOULD fucking matter? They're saying that they don't give a shit what he did to her. And that is why guys like that keep doing it, because douchebags like her friends let them get away with it.

I can see why she's an ex-friend.

RE: LW1, why the hell hasn't boyfriend blocked these folks yet? Yes, of course, why hasn't the LW blocked them/talked to them, but seriously? Boyfriend is a grown ass man who should block assholes on Facebook like an adult. Not blocking could be viewed as an open invitation for shitty friends to keep being publicly…
