I was going back-and-forth with a colleague about Duke-UNC (he's a UNC grad). I called him a 'window-licker who sits at the back of the short bus,' and he got so mad and just went off. At that point I just got mean. At some point you need to have enough SA to understand that when you go down a road, you go for keeps.
I completely agree. I think what all of these occurrences of seemingly outrageous responses to harmless words, is a sign of a deeper societal problem. Words can hurt but society has become weak if we can't rebound from it. It's no different than the safe spaces, no rough play for kid's, masks forever and so on. You build resilient humans by teaching them young, how to build strength from anything from germs/illness, word's, pain, failure, etc. We have multiple generations at this point that were taught how they can gain power from victimhood.
We are witnessing the downfall of western society. I don't know what's coming next but it's going to be ugly.
Chris rock had shit on his face?
Fresh prints from Bel-Air.
Do politicians enjoy the abuse from the twitter-verse?

The look on the guy behind him's face is awesome, he looks away because he knows death is a knockin.
HOLY SHIT!

Comedy is comedy.
I think comedians get a pass for most everything. A good joke about Tourette’s is a good joke. A bad joke is in poor taste. At the Oscars, there shouldn’t be many “bad jokes” because the comedian should have worked it out. Bombing at the Oscar’s isn’t appropriate.
A good joke about alopecia would have been great, and funny. Rock’s joke was weak at best, mild for sure.

One of the many things missed in this thread and discussion on Chris Rock's joke, which was great to be honest, are the realities of that marriage that are very public, more below. You may think it was weak, but ok. Comedians can't even be funny anymore, but if we're at the point where someone talks shit about me and I can beat their ass as a defense and get off? That's a new legal standard for me, let me know how that works.
Jada might be Will's wife, and their relationship may have even recovered, I don't know. But she openly slept with other men and it was reported in the news all the time and their marriage was considered "open". Except the only person who could cheat at a whim was her and when he slept around there was hell to pay. This went on for a number of years and people openly asked when the divorce was coming.
So when it comes to the whole don't talk shit or get hit talk, Chris Rock was one of the funniest comedians alive not named Dave Chappelle. I suppose he should have made a joke about loose female morality instead of GI Jada in the front row.
(disclaimer, I know several people with alopecia, one of them embraces being aerodynamic)

My son has found out that when outside a nightclub totally trashed, he's not denied entry when his friends tell the doorman he's on the spectrum.

This hits me in the feels so hard that I get nervous, especially since I'm at work right now.
Now, I gotta do the rain dance and feed the radio to keep it calm. I usually stick sugar packets in the dials of my portable radio on my radio strap. It keeps the devils, I mean, dispatchers happy.

It was bad enough in the ED or ICU to get a change-of-shift patient, worse on the 911 bus, and a full-on man rape in critical care transport.
The crit runs, ugh. 4 hours after shift.
911 fuck you cardiac arrest, fire call or pin in auto accident or a dreaded MCI.
Done at 1800. 1745 dispatch for unknown emergency on the highway in the car.
BLS gets there, we pull up, 80 female acute resp distress secondary to COPD. Silent chest, tripoding, fatigued, ready to die.
Beta agonists, corticosteroids, MgS04 turned her quickly. Initial ETco2 was 78, at ED. 46.
Late call, did my job.
My radios often had malfunctions in the last hour after the next team had started. Strange behaviour from electronics sometimes.
