Well that clears up alot of issues!

My Grandfather smoked his whole life. I was about 10 years old when my mother said to him, "If you ever want to see your grandchildren graduate, you have to stop immediately." Tears welled up in his eyes when he realized what exactly was at stake. He gave it up immediately. Three years later he died of lung cancer. It was really sad and destroyed me. My mother said to me- "Don't ever smoke. Please don't put your family through what your Grandfather put us through." I agreed. At 28, I have never touched a cigarette. I must say, I feel a very slight sense of regret for never having done it, because your post gave me cancer anyway.

I think this may be the best post I have ever read.

Holy shit, if that was original I'm amazed.

<_< I've actually threatened my parents with the no grandchild visitations. They haven't taken it seriously yet, as I'm yet to produce them a grandchild, but man I'm gonna do it, it's going to be good. I've resented them for smoking so much as I grew up.

Jesus, I think it's been about 5 years since I've genuinely liked a post Chari has made.

That one definitely made up for it all.

JLaw saying everyone who hacked and distributed her nudes should be charged w sex crimes and everyone who looked at them should "feel deeply ashamed and embarassed for what they did", or something like that.

**Waraji** · 2014-10-08 11:39

I am so deeply ashamed and embarrassed for thinking she looked better with clothes on.

An email to Utah State University threatened "the deadliest school shooting in American history" if the school did not cancel a lecture Wednesday morning by a well-known feminist writer and video game critic.

"Feminists have ruined my life, and I will have my revenge, for my sake and the sake of all others they’ve wronged," read the message from a sender who claimed to be a USU student.

I bet that will show everyone how wrong Anita and feminism are.

**GoggleHead** · 2014-10-14 21:38

Maybe it'll shift the narrative back to how video games incite violence instead of how we should all feel guilty about the games we enjoy playing.

**BaneTheBrawler** · 2014-10-14 22:41

thats not really any better

**NynJa** · 2014-10-14 22:46

Bet anything word gets out sooner or later that the threat was made by her or one of her associates to further her agenda, much like those twitter threats she received.

Remember guys it is about journalistic ethics not a targeted campaign of harassment.

Sure is fun to 'bet anything' without actually putting up stakes, right Nynja?
