Yes, it does go on rather, and sadly it appeals to all of the tabloids' more basic instincts.

Boys in the computer room, why does your voice always conglomerate into the sound "Buhr buhr buhr motherfucker buhr buhr" when I'm trying to plough through hard early novels and journal articles?

The thing that gets me about the video of the guy being tased is the way he is so obviously resisting unthreateningly - he keeps holding his hands way up in the air, look-ma-no-hands-style, and doesn't let go of his notepad. He's so aware of the need to not look aggressive - he keeps moving away from rather than toward anybody, keeping his hands up in the air.

I still think that when you get surrounded by cops who really want you to hold still and they're telling you they're going to tase you if you don't, the way to not get tased is to hold still, but the notion that this guy was a physical threat to anybody is ludicrous.

I kind of don't get it - has anybody ever known the cops to let go once they've decided to grab you and start hustling you out of the [library, auditorium, other]? Is there ever any ending other than you not being in the room they don't want you to be in? I can understand resisting if it's important to you, but dude, seriously - a group of armed people want you out, you're going out.

Actually, I don't think he is.

When he arrived Sunday, he was carrying presents for the girl, including a doll and earrings, and also had sexual materials, Sheriff Mark Hackel said.

Marryourdaughter.com isn't exactly making me angry - more like it is creeping me out. If it isn't some joke, it is rageworthy...wait....here comes the rage - joke or not.

"Our 15 year old daughter Mary wasn’t very popular and did nothing but mope around the house bringing everybody down, so we decided to marry her off through your site. Now our house is a lot cheerier and we love our new swimming pool and Jaccuzi! We’ve told our youngest that when she turns 15 we’re going to marry her off too!"

Rachel M.
Age: 15,
Location: Northeast

Bride Price:
$19,995 Rachel says she doesn’t have to choose between marriage and a career like other girls because being married is the only career she’s interested in. She’s ready to stand by her man and support him in every way possible. She has two dogs and two cats so her husband can’t be allergic.

Sarah M.
Age: 16,
Location: Northwest

Bride Price:
$26,995 Sarah calls herself a Goth but we insisted she not dress in black for this photo. She reads and writes a lot of depressing poetry and it takes a lot to get her nose out of a book. She says she’s an Old Soul in a new young body and she’s already been married lots of times and she might die again tomorrow so why wait?



Yep. Rage.

With you on the rage. Whilst the site itself is a well-crafted hoax, the legality is 100% real. There would be no legal obstacle to parents offering their daughters up for marriage at those ages, in those states (or recieving a handsome gift for so doing).
 
 
Papess
22:57 / 19.09.07
You are right, Live, it is a hoax. The implications of the legal reality is certainly no joke. How can there be no protection for these girls? It seems like child abuse to me. It certainly would be in Canada, at least.

I think it's revealing that at the start of that dreadful, badly-written bollocks he writes 'I'm spending a week living as I imagine a 21st century woman lives'.

And I bet his 'panel of female friends' advising him are 'imagined' as well. What utter, utter bollocks.

Oh, jiminy christmas, why did the Jena 6 have to come up? Why did the office asshole have to "get people's opinions" on the Jena ? Why did the office asshole innocently assert that the black students were wrong "from the standpoint of the law because there's no law against putting nooses in trees in Louisiana"? Why the fuck did he try to label the beating those kids dished out to that white boy "a hate crime"? Why was the office asshole so calm and "logical" while trying to constrain the conversation to the "legality" of the situation? Why. The. Fuck. Did I jump in to the conversation?* Why are people looking at me like I'm the crazy one?

I am so sick with rage, I can't eat.




*Actually, I know exactly why I jumped in. I jumped in because office asshole was peddling a line handed to him by some shit neocon "news" website that gave him a story with huge fucking holes in it. No mention in the article about the black kids sitting under the "whites only" tree. No mention of the noose-hanger's 3-day suspensions or the school neglecting to call parents and let them know what happened. No mention of the white student who pulled a gun on some black students days later. No mention of the railroading these kids got from the Louisiana judicial system. No mention at all. Nothing. And I'll be goddamned if I'm just going to let that shit slide.

I must try harder to worry about my biological clock. I must try feeling anxious that I'll never meet the right person and settle down. And I still haven't got the hang of thinking about cellulite.

My armpits are itchy, my under-eye concealer has given me a rash, and an article on sex in Cosmopolitan has made me feel like I've been doing it all wrong. I can't believe that women actually take these things seriously.


AAAAGH! Quick, find me a kitten and a tub of water!

This kind of thing always makes me feel so grateful that I don't personally know anyone who is that much of a fucking boob.

Bullies. Both in my friend's workplace and at my son's school.

Try My son told him that he is Hindu and a Buddhist, which we are, and these boys told him that, "Your religion is for girls....ewww." They call my son "a big fat jackass" and "a big fat, ugly bastard". My son isn't even fat! They tell him, "Nobody likes you...nobody wants to play with you", "everyone hates you"

These are kids who are a lot older, and the school is dragging their ass about it.

I am going to go and light a fire under it.

My blood is boiling.

Try My son told him that he is Hindu and a Buddhist, which we ar...

Yeah, well, kind of...my son adores Shiva and Durga. Luckily, our Lama is quite eclectic, and very knowledgeable in both.

Oh and my friend's workplace: this pretty much defines the harrassment she is dealing with.

Especially: A workplace bully subjects the target to unjustified criticism and trivial fault-finding. In addition, he or she humiliates the target, especially in front of others, and ignores, overrules, isolates and excludes the target.

If the bully is the target's superior, he or she may: set the target up for failure by setting unrealistic goals or deadlines, or denying necessary information and resources; either overload the target with work or take all work away (sometimes replacing proper work with demeaning jobs); or increase responsibility while removing authority.

Oh, awesome. Thanks Mr Fraudster for nicking over five hundred quid out of my account over the course of three days while I was having a nice weekend. Thanks for the blatantly obvious descending totals of withdrawals as your evil little fingers stabbed at the keypad trying to withdraw progressively smaller amounts, cos of my two hundred a day withdrawal limits.

And thanks, national ATM system for being on the blink half the weekend, so I can see this evil scumbag dipping their hand into my accounts all weekend via internet banking, but my branch can't see the ATM records yet. Urgh. It's like watching myself get mugged in very slow motion.
