everyone who has used a gun thinks they are the good guy. I don’t understand how people keep missing this.

In a situation like that, it’s pretty damn difficult to even identify the location of the shooter, much less get a line and make a shot. This guy sounds like he was well-trained by the military and chose his spot well. The police thought there was more than one shooter for quite a bit after the fact.

Are these pro gun folks willing to take a bullet from the whack-jobs?

The format is a great showcase for all of Maya’s talents. But the writing isn’t great and sticking her with Martin Short has that stink of the studio believing he would bring in more viewers than just Maya by herself.

Logically, it’s about as watertight as a mom going, “I’ve known my son his whole like and I’ve never once seen my beloved Johnny rape anyone, so he couldn’t possibly have raped that young slutty lying woman at the college party I didn’t attend!”

Also, when guys like this try to be funny and in on the joke, it is supremely awkward. Sir, I’m going to have to ask you to stay in your lane. No jokes about John Tuturro. No use of the word “surreal.” No jokes about Donald Trump nude scenes. Stop.

also, ‘it didn’t happen to me, so I support him!’ is so, so terribly weak and cowardly.

It’s disgusting to watch Ailes’ employees ally themselves with a misogynist and savage Carlson’s reputation in the press. At the level of legal strategy, I really applaud Carlson for filing suit against Ailes personally in New Jersey - where the courts are much less likely to enforce arbitration clauses - rather than…

I snorted.

I was interviewing for my dream job in the cardiac cath. lab at a Boston hospital, and I misjudged the distance I would need to walk (in heels) from the T stop to the HR office. It was blazing hot and humid, and because I was fast-walking in heels in the heat, my chronic (but usually controlled) heart arrythmia kicked…

The time I was eight minutes late due to an hour-and-a-half train derailment. The woman interviewing clearly had absolutely no intention of giving me the job because of it, but for some unfathomable reason still interviewed me anyway. Well, I mean I know why, she did it to torture me, but personally I would just send…

There’s an Evil Buildings subreddit and, well, it gives me all sorts of feelings.

I applied for a job with an optical technology company, in a position that was mostly marketing-based. The interviewer spent most of the time quizzing me on obscure calculus and geometry topics, including asking me to recite equations.

Oh, oh! I got caught in a massive rainstorm waiting for the bus for my interview. Was mid-house move, so had no umbrella on my person (AND it was a sunny DC morning until the moment it wasn’t!). Myself and another bus-stop-waiter caught a cab together downtown. I was absolutely soaking, the kind of wet you get when…

In my young, irresponsible days my BFF set me up with an interview for a part-time job. That night I went out partying and never, ahem, made it home. So I showed up late for the interview in my revealing party clothes from the night before, with wet hair, no makeup, etc. I made up a crazy lie about losing my suit…

I terminated my pregnancy today. It’s really early, just weeks, so I did the pill. Everyone at my doctor’s office was incredibly kind to me, my husband has been great. It was 100% the right decision for us: my Con list stretched on for miles, my Pro list was basically just, “Yay, a baby.” I have 2 beautiful, healthy,…

I just got back from a hike. I took my neighbors’ dog (Lola, 9 year old boxer) since we have the kind of hood where we can take their dog, randomly leave beer in their fridge, and exchange babysitting for booze and peanut butter.

Let’s do a pissing contest tonight!

I had drinks with a old friend tonight. Hadn’t caught up in ages, so was showing the obligatory kid pics. Got the usual, “Wow, they look just like their Dad!” In desperation for pictorial validation, I showed him my high school graduation pic (that my Mom dug up a few weeks ago). I shit you not, he said, “Whoa, I…

Probably taking her daily seven-hour-long shower.
