Children or religion

If you take children or religion out of the equation, marriage makes no sense.

If you have children or religion in the equation, divorce makes no sense.

What a load

This has to be the dumbest article ever.

could be anything

seizure, deja vu, thyroid, fluctuating hormones, seratonin, adrenaline. Could be anything.

Original article: I want my girlfriend back

The worst advice ever

Send a letter "by post" instead of email?

uhhhhhhhhhmmmmmm.......WHY??

That would just allow LW to indulge his pathos even more. Oh, isn't it so romantic to send a letter by post, the old fashioned way?

No, not romantic at all. Creeeeepyyyy

Original article: Born too soon

Moral

Brightstar thinks forcing an infant to suffer in agony is a fair price to pay for his desire to be a self righteous scold. Brightstar came out on the side of inflicting pain on children. How moral of you dude.

Original article: Look at the fat girl

Empowering?

What's empowering about encouraging obesity? It doesn't have to be discouraged by an emaciated ideal either. This country has lost its mind.

Original article: I don't like his kids

Love is nice but not necessary

Try to think of them as their own people and make friends with them. It's what my step mom did and I didn't notice the fact that she didn't think of us as a family besides my dad. We just got along, she was nice to me and made sure I was included because she respected me as a human, and that was cool.

fat guys a couple decades behind the curve

reminds me of something a couple of guys would come up with in college after a kegger.

No, they probably wouldn't. A college age guy wouldn't sink to this crap. Not that they would be overly sensitive to the sexism in it but it just isn't funny unless you're a bloated middle aged white guy.

Humor has changed. You can make a sexist joke but it isn't funny if it's only sexist, it has to have something else going for it or else it's just douchy. When it is funny nowadays, it's usually funny to women too. Even college age guys at keggers get that.

Uh, yes, let's blame her

No, let's not blame alcoholism. Let's blame the gluttonous irresponsible selfish piece of shit criminal that killed people.

He didn't pay his dues

Two years in prison for personally drowning dogs in buckets and electrocuting them? He didn't pay his dues.

For the whitewashers

The report states that in mid-April of 2007, Vick, Peace and Phillips hung approximately three dogs who did poorly in a “rolling session,” which lets you know if a dog is ready to be in combat. According to the report, the three men hung the dogs “by placing a nylon cord over a 2 X 4 that was nailed to two trees located next to the big shed. They also drowned approximately three dogs by putting the dogs’ heads in a five gallon bucket of water.

Original article: My evil iPhone

That's your problem

I like mine. It works well. If yours doesn't and it's "ruining your life," get a different, simpler phone or a different service.

Why would we care about all your bitching? There's not a universal hate or dislike for the iPhone. Most people like it. What's your point?

Original article: I dislike my mother!

careful

She sounds like a bitch but you will regret every bad thing you ever say about or to your mother.

Original article: My evil iPhone

You don't have to be a Phanboy to defend the iPhone

Windows 7 is better than mac os. I have both. But the iPhone is a nice technology and there's no point to an article by one consumer who had issues.

As weird as the Funks sound

Joe Miller comes off sounding worse. Anyone who works or has worked in politics knows this kind of bizarre stuff is the tip of par for the course. It definitely doesn't warrant a headline story about some hack's grievances.

Let's shut down all parent-kid writing

It's probably OK to tar your kid in print with certain limits. No pubic hair stories when he is a teenager is probably one. Wait until they are adults, OK, but does anyone really think one entire important relationship in life should be off limits to all writers? Give me a break, and so much of the reaction here is on the melodramatic and hysterical side.

Nasty

You despise your MIL yet you want her to buy you a refrigerator and leave you money when she dies.

You're where ethics and decency go to die.

So it's true after all

Women like men who treat them like shit?

Useless

Obama is as useless as Bush which shouldn't surprise anybody. He will get nothing done because his presidency is about what he is about, power for the sake of power.

Original article: Tweeting a miscarriage

She's gross.

Tweeting your miscarriage is gross.

Embarrassing dupes

Same old same old. PUMAs, Neo-Naderites and Right-Wing assholes, all sharing in the same ideology: "Barack Obama is the cause of all of our problems.

He might not be the cause of all of our problems but he ain't the solution of any of em as it turns out is he? That's because he's what we said he was. Unprincipled and uninterested.

You were hoodwinked and bamboozled but you're clinging to your crush. Like a teeny bopper who found out her pop idol was lip syncing but defends him anyways because he's sooo cuuuuute!!1!11

What an idiotic argument

Let's let all child rapists escape justice if the victim decides they should. You're really stupid.

Quit with the stupid false choices

The choices aren't shooting him or letting him go. The choices are whether he answers to the same justice system as any other criminal or not.

Thursday, October 15, 2009 05:35 PM

This story is great

Why is anybody complaining? This dope does more to hurt the cause of misogyny than all the feminists of the last 30 years combined. Give these idiots their own reality show.

"knowing indie flick"

Whoever said that nailed it. Looked forward to seeing it, ended up wish I hadn't for that reason and a few SZ noticed. Good and accurate review.

Wednesday, October 21, 2009 10:46 AM

as my 14 year old neice would say

"ewwww-uhhh"

I can imagine how the young and ebullient this smelly old man seeks out groan when he walks through the door and try hard to avoid eye contact.

Economic collapse is so funny eh lech?

Monday, November 2, 2009 05:18 PM

yeah just one problem

In our system charges are brought on behalf of "the people," not individual victims. So if the charges were dropped because she pleads then no it wouldn't be justice.
