These are the secrets? I can read that on WebMD.

Ditto. If it's going inside me, let me pick it out at least.

It's definitely an argument that has limits, but it's not incorrect. I'm not about to say that equal pay for equal work or fighting rape culture are less important than petty arguments over whether wearing lipstick is feminist or not. But I also think it's unfair to say that those things are more important than, say,

Is there anything a passenger can do when she sees another passenger harassing a flight attendant? I assume you guys have it under control and we shouldn't do anything to escalate the situation, but maybe something like letting you know we are willing to act as witnesses to what we saw?

I completely get this. I was homeless at the age of 16 because the abuse in my home was too dangerous to contemplate staying. That means sleeping under bridges in the freezing cold felt safer to me, even with the scary old homeless men. Those old homeless guys never once laid a hand on me like my parents did. The

Are you kidding me? I don't even know where to start with you. First of all, she wrote an obituary, which needed to be written in the present. Also, if you think all of this crap doesn't affect someone's present then you certainly have not had to deal with any of this, or, you're in complete denial.

Pretty much none of that crap is true.

My grandfather sexually abused all of my aunts and my mother their entire childhood. My grandmother knew and only kicked him out for 6 months before letting him back. I remember at his funeral his sisters (from Mexico, that obviously had no idea what had been going on) wailing dramatically but among the other women in

I think she deserves the last word.

My mother ruined my credit, stole my identity, purchased cars, lit a fire for insurance fraud and blamed it on me, abused me sexually, physically and incredibly emotionally, and killed two of my cats, one in front of me.

The funeral, as they say, is for the living. So I would argue, do whatever you have to to get the taint of the dead off you.

The problem with that way of thinking about the subject is that for many tasks, the average is sucking. About 2/3 of people have an average understanding of quantum mechanics by definition but that average understanding is nearly not at all.

The only solution is a worldwide ban on cats.

While I sort of get your sentiment, I appreciate any and all genuine public shows of alliance and outrage, especially from men who aren't misogynists.

Holy shit. While I would have preferred that it didn't involve all the fat insults, that was amazing. It was so reassuring to see such an overwhelming reaction of "that is not okay" coming from the audience after the initial rape comments.

I totally agree with everything you said here, but I just responded to a similar thought in another comment thread. After a second watch, I actually think that whole scene is a criticism of the white dude, not the Islamic dude.

I can't stop posting these:
