I started reading her blog and she has a post about LOSING Tropicat. I was in tears. They’d landed on a little island and she’d not come back to home base. Distraught!

This isn’t really a ‘western’, since the period predates the so-called Old West by several decades. Hugh Glass was a frontiersman and fur trapper, not a cowboy or outlaw. He used muskets and flintlocks, not revolvers at high noon.

Oh, hey there, I know this first city you are talking about. I live here now, and yeah, the taxis suck. I have seen some improvement recently, like when it comes to accepting credit cards, but that is clearly a direct response to uber.

I think we unfairly compare Uber and the cab companies. It really should be a localized thing, Uber might work well in one city and not in another part of the state (let alone another part of the country/world).

This is the right life choice. Go on fatcat

One is never too young to start collecting cats.

I have three friends who have been assaulted by taxi drivers, one raped. Regulation didn’t help them, when cab companies start doing psychological evaluations as part of their recruitment process, you might have a point. At least Uber tracks your journey and gives you phone contact with the driver. This story is

But what I mean is, say a guy who operates a Yellow Cab in, I don’t know, Peoria rapes a passenger. She reports it to the local police, he loses his license, it gets handled however it’s handled. That doesn’t stop anyone from getting a Yellow Cab in, I don’t know, Nashville. But if a woman gets raped inside an Uber,

I DEFINITELY have a type that catches my eye when I see them - namely tall, dark hair, beard, broad shoulders, looks like he could chop wood and then toss me over his shoulder and take me to bed. That being said, only a handful of men I’ve ever dated look like that. It’s just what I find initially aesthetically

The show LOST proved to me I don’t have a type. I wanted to bone Sawyer, Sayid, Jin, Guyliner, and the dude who turned into the Smoke Monster at varying points during the show.

I do that too!! Do you remember when Fred Rogers visited her, and she took off his shoes, because that’s what he did at the start of each show?? Mister Rogers + Koko = all good feels.

Yah.... casually suggesting that straight women just be into girls is kind of mocking women no matter which way you cut it.

Set phasers to STUNNING!

I totally understand that. I just had a two year relationship end a couple months ago. I am mostly over the asshole way he broke up with me and stuff...but the hardest times I have are when I see a new candy and can’t buy it for him (I used to love finding new, interesting candies for him to try), or some movie I know

Oh man, I’m so sorry. My long-term partner/ best friend and I moved out of the Midwest to a super-cool city 3 years ago. I have yet to make a single lasting friendship. He’s all I have here, so that would suck if I lost that. So while I can’t really know your pain, I understand how hard it must be.

yeah i totally understand this. The first week after we broke up, we didn’t talk at all. I had a Lyft driver that had a cup holder of all pink starbursts and thought ‘she would love this..i can’t tell her though’ and it made me really upset. I ended up texting her and we met and smoothed things out because we knew

Is it just me or does Karl look like Fred Armisen dressed up for a Portlandia episode or something?

Oh, thank God. I thought it was just me.

Wait... Symoné isn’t her last name? There’s a hyphen?
