I’m a self-proclaimed ageist and heightist in this regard. I prefer taller women and of my age group. However, while I prefer them, I’m not helplessly debilitated by those preferences to not see the more necessary qualities in women who don’t exactly fit within those preferences. If the preferences are such that one…

Man, I hope the kid never uses a computer.

so why does she still have a job? I know the answer. .but, there’s got to be a mechanism in place to remove someone who is not performing duties of the office. This is just so juvenile.

In the context of these comments, that’s exactly correct. It’s really not about whether it’s an actual accomplishment or not. You might value that. But, again, considering these comments, simply participating in the marathon is not enough. Because said participant didn’t win the marathon, and only participated in it,…

and you received participation trophies. . . and you’re a dick for it??

Didn’t realize millenials were 50+ years old. . . participation trophies are the least new thing in the world. hyperbolically speaking of course.

But you participated, right?? You didn’t win anything. You weren’t the most valuable player. You were kinda there. I mean, I’m glad you did your personal best. But, according to the football player dude, that doesn’t mean much. You shouldn’t earn a medal because you were there. Not how it works in his world. Why’s…

Why even ask those questions?? It’s only right. But, he’s never been right. . . about anything.

I’m sure he’s never received a “thanks for playing” award. totes mcgotes!! Thing is. . . those “not for anything special” awards didn’t just start. . . this has been going on for quite some time.

He’s fuckin’ with you. lol

The last sentence explains it all.

It’s naive to think that any one person or any one moment can COMPLETELY change anything.

I love all the smarty-to-the-party’s who offer nothing more than criticism without any semblance of a plan or an alternative or anything more than their own brand of bullshit prescience and omnipotence. It’s reeeeeeeally refreshing.

Thank you!

No. . no they can’t do whatever they want. They have to do what’s within the law. They’re not emperors because of the black robes. . . you moron.

welcome to america. . first time here??

More power to ya. The only time I have an issue with a kid on a plane is when they incessantly kick the shit out of the seat. Beyond that, they’re kids.

yup. . that is rudeboy status.

So willfully turning a blind eye to the systemic issues is the right approach to take? Not learning what those systemic abuses are. . fighting them tooth and nail and figuring shit out? Aaah yes. . the key is to persevere in spite of the current condition and not doing anything about said condition because if one can…

So you didn’t write this: “As flawed as it is, this so called “New Black” mindset is far better than the alternative - sitting around and blaming the system and history coz you got the short end of the stick.”
