I tell people to fuck right off with that one. Most people don’t have the fucking luxury to do “something they love” or “pursue dreams” or spend years “finding themselves.”

Speaking on behalf of millions of depressives: shut the fuck up, LaToya.

As an audio engineer, people who drop microphones make me angry. Those things aren’t cheap.

Two things are guaranteed to make every busybody within a 50-mile radius come out of the woodwork: pregnancy and having an infant with you.

Anytime anyone is mugged, or their house burns down, or their identity is stolen, etc, from now on I am just going to ask “well, what were you wearing?” *sincere eyebrows*

I think the bad actors here are the people who tried to make out that her body was only a sex object or corrupted children.

And guess who’s going to be caring for them in 10-20 years! Thanks, daughter/daughter-in-law! Sorry we couldn’t help with your kids, now would you mind wiping my butt?

Frankly, I feel a bit that way sometimes. My parents are retired Boomers. When I was young, they took solo vacations at least 3-4 times a year. My brother and I stayed with my maternal grandparents. They had nights out with friends a few nights a month. Again, stayed overnight at my grandparents. I have wonderful…

Kids *ARE* an economic burden. And in having them, it’s on the parents of said kid to bear that burden. If you CAN get outside assistance from family to ease the burden, well then good for you. You’re damn lucky. No one owes you shit just because you had a kid.

Which just begs the question... if everyone hates it so much why do we keep doing it?

My mother, on the cusp of turning 60, is about two drinks away from BEGGING me to have children. She has offered to basically nanny any future children I might have, and swears that she will do grandma-daycare every single day for absolutely free if only I would PLEASE JUST HAVE SOME BABIES.

The comment last night about Kerri Walsh Jennings not having “an ounce of fat” on her body was so gross and irritating. Can we focus on how she and April Ross are obliterating the Australians, please?!

Plenty of men have also gone into politics because their daddy did, but I don’t remember anyone pausing to take a second to acknowledge that G.W. would never have gotten anywhere without H.W.- and that is probably far more true that it is for Clinton. Fuck, she might have been the only person to be held back by being…

Oh was Pat Summit married to her players? Are AA members married to each other? Do they have a word for “analogy” in your birth country?

Yeah, I remember Michael Phelps’ coach getting all the credit for his medals. Oh, wait...

“It’s just that in the aggregate women tend to be more emotional, and men more analytical.”

I have no interest in the emotional journey, I just want to see people do amazing flips in the air in gymnastics, diving and bmx racing. Special features on where an athlete grew up and how proud their family are are not amazing, gravity defying feats and I do not care for them. This sounds like tv execs telling women…

Nope. Thousands of tests have been done in the attempt to prove that men are more analytical, and every one of them has failed. Additionally, emotions are not quantifiable, so it can’t be proven that one gender is more emotional.

I never watch the opening ceremonies. I find them boring. I find the aspect of “the journey” boring as well. I like to watch the athletes do athletic things. Like sports.

Oh, please. It’s not like men don’t buy in to this either. Football for example is very much about the journey. Ever watch the run up to the draft? Jesus, nothing but sob stories. Ever see the press coverage about a player who has come back from injury? The in depth details about shoulder surgery for a quarterback or…
