She sounds awesome. Do you know if she’s seeing anyone, in like a serious way?

Maybe the real lesson is that a mangled hand actively gushing blood isn’t really a great analogy for depression.

If the comic suggested that he sought help in the past and it wasn’t working, it would be a much better analogy. Unfortunately, we only know what’s actually shown.

The victim isn’t at fault for being depressed, or having a mangled hand, or whatever analogy we want to use. However, if they go out with friends and expect them to take the problem more seriously than they, themselves, are taking it, then they have some measure of fault for imposing their problem on the friend. If they are seeking treatment that just isn’t working, or they are unable to get proper treatment for other reasons, that’s a different story and I’ll have a lot more sympathy.

It all boils down to not expecting someone to take your problem seriously for long if you are not taking it seriously yourself.

The others would probably take his problem a lot more seriously if he had at least tried to get it fixed. If you are going to walk around with a mangled blood gushing hand for a prolonged period of time, without seeking help, then you should probably stop whining about it, because I can’t do anything for you. I can’t force you to go to a doctor.

The metaphor would work a lot better if one of the people he’s talking to was a doctor that ignored the problem with his hand.

Dude should maybe consider seeing a doctor about his “hand”.

I’m familiar with WYSIWYG but I’ve never heard of WUSSYWAGON.

If you let the companies get away with this, they’ll use it as an excuse to get away with more. The enforcement isn’t about this mistake specifically, it’s about keeping consistent practices and preventing precedents.

For the stuff that’s already sold, they don’t have to destroy it, or do anything really, unless the customer returns it. Hardly any are going to. If the article counts those in the headline number, it’s being a little dishonest.

I like it, but not enough stuff uses it yet to be a true game changer. I still have to keep multiples of different types of cables to charge everything.

You’re thinking of Google, not Microsoft.

About 15 minutes, this morning in Wilmington, NC. In previous elections here, I’ve walked in and voted immediately, with no line

They might figure they could make more money treating the sick than they could selling the vaccines.

Mostly the “shopping” part.

Oh, you better believe I’m disturbing that. There is no way I’m not petting that pile of floppy cuteness.
