OPEN BAR: Top 10 things millenials hate about OB that we didn't know last week!

The arguments may be unpacked, but they're only nuanced in a relative sense when compared to the Twitter storm.

But then, tumblr.

Yeah. It probably tells you more about my current adverse reaction to the screeching morass of puerile obscenity which is masquerading as discussion on the intersnot. You're both right QG and Cain. "Nuanced" actually requires more nuance. Mea culpa.

Isn't sexism a matter of degree?
I mean isn't everyone a little bigoted?
With the constant barrage of news stories about happenings all over the globe and the social connections the internet and ubiquitous smartphones are helping foster, we are forced to have a mental model of 7 billion people.
There is no way you can fit 7 billion different persons into the mindscape of a single human.
It just cannot fit without mayor use of categories and summaries.

At the end of the day, I read every "question" you offered with the same banal emotion that I extended to the realization that my popcorn pam was scorching. Do you have anything with any thought behind it?

I am on the side of humanity, this time.  Then, repeat.

Not really.

I am a patient boy.

I wait, I wait, I wait.

Let's just say that HR came into some interesting documentation concerning the current goings on at work.  I think I saved Ed from being unjustly fired.

Lillie gets back in town tomorrow, alongside her boss and an army of HR.  Interesting times.

OMG

I am essentially rubbing my hands together in delight right now.

The big flaming ball of shit flew up...
...
...
...
...And stayed there.  Hovering.  HR called and very improperly asked me to remove the word "retaliation" from my statement.  To be fair, they leaned on Lillie about her story.  I refused to change my statement, Lillie refused to back down.

So now there are two suns in Tucson.  One is the regular ANGRY HATE GOD, and the other smells like Nancy Spungen's hotel room, and will eventually come thundering down to splash all over everything.

I have to say, I'm rather enjoying the absolute chaos.  People are tiptoeing around with an eye on the trenches.  Nobody knows what the hell is going on, and apparently I am the only person who is comfortable with that.

My dad made a new friend.   

I think that's the common Chilean Rose-hair tarantula. I had one for a few years when I was younger for a science project at school. Won me second place in the State-wide science fair.

Also, I can't put my finger on how comfortable he is with that on his shoulder. I would assume not comfortable. But most people I've seen who aren't comfortable with spiders would be flipping shit in that position.

Like me, he gives no shits when it comes to spiders.

A few days ago, my friend and I were on our way to Taco Hell before we were gonna go to his gf's graduation. I was dressing in some super nice business casual shit. I was wearing $200 in clothes. We're driving down a main road in my town after pulling off of his street. I had neglected to put my seat belt on because I thought reaching across in that way while the car was moving would make the suit rip or something. I expressed this to my friend with the words, "Fuck seat belts."

Most of the time I wear seat belts and get on other people for not doing so.

No more than 2 minutes later, after we've turned off of that main road onto a suburban road, we get rear-ended in a 3-way intersection by a giant-ass Dodge truck. My friend's car is an old Honda Accord LX Coupe. It's small, in non-car people terms. It hit us hard enough to push us 7-8 feet into the car in front of us.

Whip-lash like a motherfucker. But that was my Just Desserts. Now I put seat belts on immediately, whether I'm wearing a neon jock-strap or a slim-fit Alfani suit.

Turns out we knew the person who hit us. But that's another story entirely.

CUTE!


I actually dreamt I had to save one of those from horrible death in a vending machine last night.
