It is so tempting to return rudeness with rudeness!

I love the art history ones because it's so little work for me. There's so many paintings that when I look at them, the look on the lady's face is like so clear and her body language and her posture or their physical situation is so immediately recognizable. Anyone who's been in a conversation they didn't want to have, or been getting harangued by a little kid they didn't want to pay attention to or been tired and wanted to go to bed is just like, "Yes, of course."

You are allowed to draw lines even if your feelings are irrational. Part of the marvelous business of being an adult human is that you get to set your own boundaries for whatever reasons you like, without appending a sensible rationale to them.

An adult woman should not be so possessive of her own birthday that she begrudges her friends the chance to get married on the same day.

Many fathers go their entire lives without announcing how sexy their son's old girlfriends are.

I'm of the opinion that it is always a kind and appropriate decision to get in touch with someone who's lost a loved one to remind them that you're thinking of them and have fond memories of the deceased.

Asexuality does not make our lives any worse or any better, we just face a different set of challenges than most sexual people.
