Thank you for reminding me about The Secret World of Alex Mack! That show was my jam.

I’m assuming this was after she’d reminded you to call your mother?
I love the idea because I love heist films AND ensembles but I wish it were someone else in the lead.
Okay, but leave in the humour this time and maybe it won’t just be another Our Brand is Crisis.
Perhaps. But it’s been proven that even in cases in which women work as many or more hours then men, they’re still expected to do the housework.
Can we just agree that sex shouldn’t even factor into it? “Men’s work” and “Women’s work” is a silly concept. Sometimes the man will be better at repairing the house or fixing the car, and sometimes the woman will be. Sometimes the woman will be better at cooking and cleaning and sometimes the man will be. But setting…
I’m with you so much. Can we all just agree that this whole genre of “men suck at domestic things” is just fucking awful. Like, I am a man. I also like to make sure the kitchen is reasonably clean, and years of living without a dishwasher means I’m 100% okay with washing dishes on my own.
Right? When I got to that part, this was my first thought as well. Does she just mean that people took her more seriously as a part of her life than if she had been “just a girlfriend”? Super weird.
Oh I agree 100%
Blame the media, not the person
I really agree with your first point, playing on a person’s phobias is just sick. But I think you might be going too far about practical jokes. A joke that does not hurt a person or freak them out can be okay. Putting a fart cushion on a friend’s chair at home might be okay, leaving it on their chair in an office…
Wait wasn’t 2012 recently? Can you seriously hear a significant era change??
Yeah, I mean, obviously waving a gun around is crazy, but phobias by definition are illogical and irrational. It sounds like his coworkers purposefully triggered his phobia because they thought it would be funny to watch him panic, then they complanied that he acted unhinged while in the midst of a panic attack. It’s…
If they knowingly hung spiders everywhere after he specifically said that he had a phobia, then fuck them. Don’t play with people’s phobias. People who do that are the scum of the earth. Otherwise, don’t wave guns around. Not cool.
Doesn’t she have lupus though? I’d think that and the treatments she underwent recently would wreak hell on your skin, and you know, gotta look perfect 24/7.
Wonder how long he’ll actually stay in, on top of that?
ONE YEAR ONE YEAR?? ::RAGE QUIT THE DAY::
But, but, but....I thought women were the weaker sex. Where’d this strength come from all of a sudden?
Have you ever read Zen And The Art Of Jewish Mother Motorcycle Maintenance?
I actually got the same advice about 25 years ago, from my lapsed Catholic advisor, and think it was really some of the best advice she ever gave.
