It's a federal offense to sell, donate or give away a crib with a lowerable railing because two kids died in 20 years.

Well I was sent to Patmos Island to drink Ouzo and have vacation sex.

@206
"A high proportion of American men are assholes."
"there are a lot of men who say NOTHING when OTHER men say horrible, derogatory things about women. They shrug or take a swig of their beer"
"In the words of the old joke: men need to learn to treat women as if they were equal human beings."
"You'll have no luck, because in his mind at least ( as in the case of so many men) he knows better than we do what we go through every day."
"Any guys care to answer this question: why are men committing mass shootings and violence and sexual violence against women, children and other men on such an overwhelming scale?"
"the difference is that men are pigs."
But did enjoy the volume at which you worked through your boilerplate.

And didn't you have a Quaker education? To me it seems that most people who went to Quaker colleges have a pretty thick coating of psychic teflon when it comes to this sort of thing ... maybe be a little more Pennsylvania zen about it?

The rude comment was dickish behavior to be certain. NO excuse for it -- excusing it enables it.
Some comments here generalize this type bad behavior to "most men," which is as bad as men who generalize cunty behavior to all women. Most men are far better than this.
We live in a big city though and there are plenty of people with antisocial personality disorder walking the streets at any given time. Do you think they give a fuck if you say something cutting back to them? Of course not - they don't have normal emotional structure or they wouldn't say something offensive to begin with. Try to be amused as long as there's not an imminent physical threat (then ventilate the asshat or go krav maga on his crotch.

My dog was just doing this 30 minutes ago as I sat at a bar drinking a beer. Lighten up a little on the persecution! Yes dogs get stolen and it's an awful shitty thing. That's why mine never gets tied off out of my sight (if he can't come in). And outside of that there's no problem - dog and I would take a bullet for one another but sometimes he can wait outside while I drink a damn beer.

66 is engaging in some sort of deep satire right? You keep showin' me a better way to live; I'll keep paying for the shit you co-opt (aka make an excuse for taking) as you indefinitely perform your noble little morality play. Or shut the fuck up and do something actually useful by joining me down at the soup kitchen scrubbing floors in your spare time?
I'm sure if you go read your pamphlet again you'll find that my kind of "helping people" by actually "helping people" who need "help" is a hollow reification of the system, man, compared to, say, being a rad rad radical with a sack of rocks and cool stories to tell your fellow pseudo-hobo oh-so-enlightened narcissists.

@83 maybe so. But still never take driver behavior for granted. I did about a year ago, started walking out into a 4 way stop with a little kid. Someone across the street yelled look out as a shit box old Honda with a fogged windshield barreled through. It brushed the front of my coat. If that person hadn't have been there we'd be dead or seriously fucked up. It haunts me and changed my behavior.
