Yes, agreed. My personal rule of thumb is to only kick women sober enough to really feel it, you know?

Midfight Cowboy

Cowboy abuses Redskin woman.

Which is what makes throwing her to the ground and kicking her totally acceptable.

Our tipster does not know what started the brawl

Which is why I thought it was a fair question. Terry Gross wouldn’t have even bothered to broach the subject if it wasn’t relevant to why Abby was there.

Please stop interfering in our attempts to be offended on someone else’s behalf. If you keep this up, we’ll have to post something in the comments about how we were just “putting this out there” and you “shouldn’t read anything into” this.

I think it’s a fair question to ask. Not all of us lesbians are gold star lesbians. I can only speak from me and my circle’s experiences but for a lot of us, that relationship with a male (no matter how far it progresses) is part of the process of knowing and understanding what feels right or realising who you are.…

Like referencing a pop culture meme in a totally noon aggressive way? Then, seeing someone took it as something that it wasn’t meant to be, apologizing multiple times?

So your stance is that you LITERALLY can only talk about work related subjects or subjects to add to the work product, while at work? You must be an awesome co-worker.

Giving in to and coddling people who can’t handle day to day life is not “progress.”

I...feel really stupid, but despite being a woman I absolutely don’t get this. It seems like just a lot of sentences about men but it could apply to men or women and it’s not playing on the setup/punchline format of jokes so I’m super confused. Can someone point me to an explanation ? man I’m gonna feel really stupid…

Way too long. But I’m sure it’s funny and relevant. I appreciate your humor so I’ll take your word for it. The problem I think here was there is no rape joke here. Instead a reference to a comedic song that is a rape joke. That the complainer obviously knew it well enough to immediately know what it was. Had a…

See but Danielle does a shit job of presenting the issue that way. Her email fails to include or make any reference to other incidents. The article does though and without that we wouldn’t have any idea of what else was going on at the office. Had she herself included some of those details I would wholeheartedly…

Oh for fuck’s sake.

So, basically what this boils down to is that this woman is claiming a hostile work environment (that’s what toxicity and harassment gets classified as). Is she put upon so badly that she cannot do her work, because that’s part of the definition of a hostile work environment.

I get that people make bad jokes of pop…

Wow, Danielle must be really busy at work, what with all the time she has to write and complain about her coworkers referencing a song instead of doing actual work. Way to go Danielle, lead by example!

What kind of dumbshite thought it would be a good idea to use a generic bing images search to serve up emoticons from the wider web? HAVE YOU MET THE INTERNET? Really, I sometimes wonder about these people - creating the bleeding edge of technology, still do some absurdly stupid shit.
