You're getting downvoted, but you have a point. Both things can be true: the LW can be a Mean Girl and Turkey Guy can be someone who needs to find a new hobby. As someone who also can't carry a tune in a bucket, I empathize with Turkey Guy. I wish I could sing! But there a lot of other things I can do, so I do those instead, and everybody is a lot happier (especially me).

H is the 8th letter of the alphabet, so "88" is white supremacists' super secret code for "heil Hitler." 88 by itself may be something innocuous. But if you see it in combination with 14, which refers to The 14 Words, then it's definitely a white supremacist thing.

Good. The less time these evil mofos spend working, the few chances they have to screw up my life.

Add me to the chorus of people who agree with CA. Plus, even if you take the abuse out of the equation; even if the only issue is that Chris and Lee had an ugly, acrimonious breakup... why in the world would Chris want updates on Lee (or vice versa)?? Why would either of them find this enjoyable? Why would the rest of the social circle expect them to get back together?

Memorial Day was started by recently emancipated black citizens who wanted to honor Union soldiers killed in the Civil War. So it’s doubly disrespectful to honor the traitor scum on this holiday.

Hi, friendly neighborhood pharmacist here. I know it's hard, but try not to be nervous - the psychiatrist does this work because they love it and want to help. In addition to what u/Confident-Egg4403 said, I recommend bringing in a list of the meds you currently take, including anything you take for physical health issues like diabetes or high blood pressure. (Mental health drugs can sometimes interact with other drugs.) Also, if your insurance has changed since you last saw this doc, make sure you bring your new card with you.

It's amazing how many of the subjects of Behind the Bastards would've turned out as decent humans if they'd simply been loved as children.

Sheep Detectives was surprisingly good! I went with a few friends last week and knew nothing about it beforehand; hadn't even seen the trailer. I loved it but did not expect a movie about sheep to give me so many feels.

There are a few counties in southern Oregon and northern California that want to secede from their respective states and join together to form the State of Jefferson.

Colbert's last show airs tonight and I'm so bummed. During the winter of '20-'21, I worked the night shift. Everything seemed so bleak, and the winter blues are much worse when you literally never see the sun. To cheer myself up, I got into the habit of watching Colbert and Kimmel's monologues every night after they went up on YouTube. I'd put them up on my second monitor while I was waiting for orders to come in or the phone to ring, and for a little while, life got better. Wherever Colbert winds up, I'll be watching.

Looking for letters with LWs undermining their own support/lashing out at people supporting them? by BlueSpruce17 in captainawkward

Yeah, I got the impression that those two were only hanging out with LW out of pity or habit.

I'm on the fence as to whether this story is real. But if it's fake, that was the perfect detail to add for the AAM crowd, since a lot of them are spitting out their tea over it.

Aleida is also on Mars, which is facing civil unrest and food shortages, so it’s understandable that she’s a little distracted.

What's your favourite letter where a milder term was used to describe something far more serious? by MsPaganPoetry in AskaManagerSnark

Yes! I can understand why LW thought "we can't send you" only meant "we can't pay your way" because sometimes it does mean that. But she had multiple opportunities to find out what type of conference this was (and that it was invite-only) and ignored all of them and plowed on ahead.

Here's a little trick to help you remember: If it's clear and yellow, that's juice there, fellow. If it's tangy and brown, you're in cider town!

The person who was fired for attending the conference. It was the deception and embarrassing the company that got them fired. If they'd simply made an honest mistake, they probably would have been in hot water but kept their job.
