No. A: I’m not entirely sure the other people in that house know he’s there, and I do NOT want to bang my way into a slasher movie. B: Either I want to fuck him badly enough that I’ll risk having to make him tea in the morning, or I’m not crawling up into a crawl space and risking losing a shoe in the dark.
I think it would be only fair to split the cash with Anne. On the other hand, what’s up with Mary? Assume...Anne was at least eight before she was up to much diary-wise, so her at least 19 YEAR OLD older sister was bribing someone to spy on her? And the older we move the baseline, the creepier it gets.
I think it was also that Jackie was -- presumably because the details of the story were fabricated -- the ever elusive ‘perfect victim. In her presentation of the event, she was bare of the usual ‘faults’ that some people pick at in these stories. If I recall the story correctly, she wasn’t drinking, she was modestly…
My friend called me once, in hysterics, because her husband’s chickens were eating mice. She was very much a city girl, and this exposure to the harsh side of country life made her a vegetarian for a month. I was also grossed out, but declined the opportunity to go and witness it.
Actually, this isn’t the first Jezebel has mealy mouthed around the word ‘rape’ even when it is safely preceded by ‘allegedly’. It’s quite weird.
Exactly! I was scrolling down to see if it bothered anyone else. This couple allegedly raped a woman — not forced her into a ‘threesome’. It’s clickbait titillation, and Jezebel should try a bit better.
I would have been more sympathetic to - ‘I don’t believe he said that - the man would have to be a rolling bag of dumb hammers to come out with that’. I mean, obviously he said it - but I am gobsmacked that someone would be that ignorant.
I’m just not one of nature’s huggers. I once split someone’s lip in my clumsy attempt to give them a genuine (they’re one of best friends!) hug. My reaction to unsolicited acquaintance hugs is a sort of crippling mix of horror and discomfort.
It was kinda terrifying. I felt like it was the sort of situation where I should say something, but considering he was dangling a child over a sheer drop it didn’t seem a good idea to distract him.
Risk analysis came away with me staying at least two thirds of my height away from the edge at all times :D
Yep. I was convinced I was going to get my 15 mins of fame for watching an idiot throw his baby into a canyon. I am amazed more people don’t die at it.
When I was at the Grand Canyon a dude stood on a rock jutting over the terrifying drop and held his baby son out like it was Lion King. Then there was the group of Japanese teenagers who slid over the edge of the Canyon onto a small ledge, crouched down, and popped up for selfie/snapchats/videos. People are either…
They look like the sort of thing a louche film director wears with a Chinese silk robe, stained with whiskey and shame, but....http://needsupply.com/dia-slides.htm…
She could have not mealy mouthed her way around condemning him by a: distancing herself from the knowledge ‘I don’t have facebook’ when it was moderately well published what he is doing, and b: said she wouldn’t work with him again, not just hedged that they weren’t currently working together. That would have…
Eta: Read on down, other people said it better. Sorry!
Well, credit where credit is due...she isn’t wearing that bullet necklace anymore? That’s a step up from completely, aggressively, actively clueless?
Not really. People drink at parties, and if you go in with no plan it is easy to drink more than you’re comfortable with. It’s hot, you’re thirsty, and you’re just grabbing one more glass. Someone is absently filling your wine glass and you’re not paying attention to the fact your glass in MAGIC*. It’s hard to…
It could be argued that is the point of this part of the bible? Judges is about the degeneration of society in the absence of kings, the weakening of the moral and governmental fabric of society. This story is a mirror of the story of Lot, where he offered his daughters to try and protect his angelic guests from being…
It depends on how significant an ex they were. If it was a dude you dated a couple of times, huh. If it was some you’d dated for years, then I can see it being difficult to absorb at first. This is someone who you’d spent significant amounts of time with and yet you hadn’t realised such a huge thing about them. Did…
It is - I think - one of those letters where the public nature of the forum dictates a more uncompromising response. The letter is probably acceptable advice for the LW based on the background and limited information — Obsessed has been abused since she was 8 year old and considers her boyfriend’s refusal to have sex…
