This is sort of like a stranger walking in on you in the dressing room of a department store and saying, "Hey, it's okay, I'm a doctor, I've seen it all before."

Get back to me when you take up the crusade against "farms", "boats", "ships", "houses", and "outdoor markets", all things which also had routine connections to slavery. Your hatred of the word "plantation" doesn't make sense, and I'm starting to wonder if you actually know what a plantation is.

You do realize the word plantation is not racist, right? Like, there were horrible things that happened on plantations, but plantations are just farms. There are still plantations around today, because they're... just farms. Horrible things also happened to Africans-sold-into-slavery on boats, too, but you wouldn't…

I don't think that's body shaming. Bionic didn't say it negatively. It's just factual, some women have perky boobs, some have droopy boobs. Clothes aren't going to fit the same way on the same body types, and I agree that if she had naturally perky breasts, the dress would look different. As it is, I think Gaga went a…

Yeah, I saw that, she even looks back over her shoulder as the guy almost forces her out... she knew something was wrong there.

Although it's awful, referencing hellfire and divine judgment is a lot different from saying, "I'm going to set you on fire."

That was an actual laugh-out-loud comment. Nice!

Although it wouldn't have been a violation of the Shadow Proclamation to be up front about it. Miss Foster was a smart businesswoman, she could have spun it. (I realize she states that the Adipose asked her to do it covertly—although I have to wonder why—burned by the loss of their nursery planet, mayhaps?)

Very true. If Donna hadn't been playing around with that necklace, interfering with that woman's signal, Adipose wouldn't have even felt like they needed to "eliminate" her. Earth would be tons and tons lighter, Adipose get their babies, everybody wins.

I believe "Mr. President" is only used in direct address. To refer to him, you can use Mr. Obama if you have previously referred to him as President Obama earlier in the article.

I don't think Tracie is defending these women because she feels that "being plain or ugly is something akin to being immoral". Rather, calling someone ugly, or even plain, is just really rude and it's natural to come to the defense of people "under attack", if we like them, even if we don't personally know them. Let's…

Obviously six to twelve weeks of intensive training isn't wasting anyone's time, but the point is, even before she won her gold (hell, even before she went to the Olympics) she had ALREADY proved herself the best, so why does going to the Olympics matter? They didn't suddenly give her the ability to beat everyone in…

"Doesn't mean you have any say in what is healthy or objectifying."

Buuut, she was already better than them before she went to the Olympics. She was already number one in the state, which meant she was better than all the swimmers at Cherry Creek, who are in the state. And she made the national team, beating out, you know, a significant portion of the nation. The point is that she…

When you admit to not getting a flu shot for selfish reasons, then yes, we can call you a horrible person. The fact of the matter is, you are endangering immuno-comprimised people who cannot get flu shots (like cancer patients undergoing treatment, among others) by being a carrier. These are people who are endangered…

PREACH!
