This is why, even though I work in political communications and my boss keeps trying to get me to consider speaking publicly on the issue I spearhead - I DON'T WANT TO. My mom would absolutely call in and 1) tell me to sit up straight so everyone can see my pretty face, 2) disagree with me on points of policy, and 3)…

I love this mom. And by love this mom I mean that I really do love her but I'm so glad she's not my mom.

In America, you break it, you pay for it.

He might not be legally liable in the Netherlands...but he's morally liable.

No one cares what you think about her body.

There must be some seriously weird chemicals in the water where you live if the twelve-year-old boys look like Miley Cyrus.

I'm a bad person for laughing out loud while reading this, but seriously? The crane crashed into the house a second time while they were trying to bring it back up?

It was probably the best way to keep the neighbors from fucking killing them. They may not be financially liable, but it was his brilliant idea to do this stupid thing, so you know the neighbors all hate him with every fiber of their beings.

Here's the thing: It's a heroically dumb idea, but not dumbo's fault that the crane operator didn't secure their equipment properly. Unless things are really different in the Netherlands, you can't just walk onto the lot, rent heavy construction equipment, & drive off into the sunset with your rent-by-the-hour crane.

SLOOTJES LOPIK. That's what it says on the crane, and that's what you get for using a crane from IKEA.

I am Happily married. Also, I watch a ton of porn. Not everyday, but often, even cam sites (I'd never pay for porn though). My wife doesn't watch porn, but knows I do and has never expressed a problem with it. My guess, your partner's porn consumption has nothing to do with your or the relationship. I enjoy porn,…

He's jerking it because he's bored, likes jerking off, and sex cams are available. Let him have a private internal life, for christ's sake. There's no pathologizing to be done here. He's in a relationship with you and only whacking it to these women, who — live or not — are sexual objects to him and nothing more. And…

That was Stoya.

Where do you want to start? The basic elements are:

But I think the question is whether it could be considered defamatory given the context. Presumably, Cosby hired his attorney (who is the only one recently who's been commenting) to defend him from these accusations. It would stand to reason that an attorney's best defense to such allegations would be to say, "the…

Defamation is a tricky thing in the best of cases. My concern here is that she seems to be referring not to statements made by Cosby himself (since I cannot find anything online that contains a direct quote from Cosby calling her a liar) but by statements made by Cosby's lawyers, spokespeople, etc. TMZ doesn't have an…

I have been violently assaulted and verbally abused by a number of licensed cab drivers. At least this one's easier to identify because of Uber's technology.

I have been regularly frequenting the sign-offs here for months with bad news about how much I hated moving back home after law school because my mother had a terminal cancer diagnosis. Thanks to everyone who has advised me in this tumultuous process. I am in therapy, but being able to hear back from people who have…

I think it has to do with the nature of offenses and the artist's work. At least for me. I like the works of Polanski, Allen and Cosby. The Cosby story made me incredibly nostalgic for his TV show, and incredibly sad that I wouldn't be able to enjoy it anymore. Part of it is that Cosby's appeal was his warmth - a…
