Lots of British people call kids “monkeys” as a term of endearment. I thought your grandma may have been British. A few have been quite miffed at being told off for calling black kids monkeys, even though it was meant affectionately. Context is everything— and you can’t call a black kid a monkey- even sweetly- and…

It’s how they would live if they won the Powerball.

There is nothing about that face that is good looking. He looks like someone drew a face on a Krakus canned ham topped with a Ken doll’s hair.

There weren’t many movie role models for young black girls in the early 80s, so Carrie, Karen Allen and Margot Kidder were mine. I was never a princess type girl but I IDOLIZED Leia. I thought Carrie Fisher was just the absolute best.

I think I was there the day with the Mankini guy. To be fair, it’s not like a Mankini is uncommon in Blackpool.

I live in Manchester and I fucking love Blackpool! I went there for the first time a couple of years ago and I was amazed. It’s basically the armpit of humanity, but it’s brilliant. We go for the illuminations and my usually liberal minded American parents were shocked that people were offering us cheap drinks at the…

I want to take him home and feed him tasty things that he would show equal joy about. I think that’s what you’re meant to do with babies.

I’d be pissed. I can’t stand dogs. I don’t find them endearing nor do I really want to be around them. My kids don’t like dogs. Some dog owners can be obnoxious about them.

I’m really sorry for what happened to you son. Truly, I am. I’m legit furious for what your coworker said to you. I wouldn’t have had the fortitude to handle things like you did with your coworker.

It’s a common sense argument. Dogs aren’t kids and shouldn’t be treated as such. That people need to be told this is absurd.

We need to stop with the “humanize” thing. The words people are looking for are “sympathize” as you said, and “normalize.”

Blazing Saddles totally made fun of white people, stupid white people and white supremacy. So, what you said is spot on. Thanks for the cakewalk reference— perfect.

So would I.

Shut up, you lying motherfucker. No one who is from the southside of Chicago calls it “South Chicago” unless you’re talking about the name of the street.

Yep, and George HW Bush is the kind of East Coast, blue-blooded Yankee that HATES people like Donald Trump. Trump wants to be the Bushes. The Bush types wouldn’t piss on the Trumps if they were on fire. Ivanka ain’t married to one of them and Tiffany won’t be either.

My best friend met him recently at her job. From the pics, affable seems just the word for him. She said he was goofy and fun. Said Laura was very nice too.

My uncle died this year. I also had to come into my daughter’s class while their teacher and the vicar delivered the news that one of their classmate’s dad had died. They are 4 and 5 years old. It’s been shitty. I’m sorry for your losses.

I’m so sorry for your loss.

That’s not how it works. No one knew what the fuck was happening and he basically flew around the country for hours. That shit was crazy and everyone knew it. About the best thing you can do in that situation is try to keep an air of normalcy.

Seriously! Kids are generally extremely empathetic and hurting someone feelings is like a capital crime to most of them. I hate when Trump is compared to a child. Kids act way better than he does.
