Must be that I have lived by myself on many occasions, but that guy needs to be shot. And I don't mean vaccinated (the husband)

Re: National, Regional and Local News
Different take - This is unnecessarily passive aggressive. She doesn't appear to be on the verge of divorce or kicking her kids out (though this certainly may have been a large step in the direction of the former). Is this guy great? No, obviously he should get off his ass and split the housework with her. Are her kids pitiful? Seems like it. She's to blame for some of that and as far as I can tell, she's not understanding that. She's the mother grown women complain about when talking about men because the mothers that raised them and did everything for them. They should've been helping clean up after themselves since they were toddlers if she didn't want to become their maid. Not necessarily surprising that she appeared to marry this kind of man.
This is a sad setup she's got going on here. Glad this appeared to have worked. But am I cheering this? Not like you guys are. I'm amused, but don't truly find this kind of thing productive. Seemed great to start, but as it went on, it felt very much like there are better approaches than this to me. I'm always amazed at how much plenty of women in particular will go out of their way to avoid a confrontation of any kind. That is so not me.

I think most of us were just finding it amusing. I'm not a guy like this, but I'd certainly also not want a woman like that.

Re: National, Regional and Local News
Apparently there was live video posted. I'm guessing it's been taken down.

Re: National, Regional and Local News
The Boulder police haven't confirmed this is the shooter.
They do say the suspect is being treated at the hospital.

"I can't believe it's happening in Boulder," he told CBS Denver.
Why NOT? It's happening everywhere else, ya dumb twit.

Re: National, Regional and Local News
Maybe it was just the moment so it wasn't the clearest thought. Did he mean, he can't believe it's happening in Boulder because he can't believe it's happening AGAIN in Colorado? I'm not trying to be mean here, but two of the most famous mass shootings occurred in Colorado, in very close proximity to Boulder in fact, so this just doesn't make any sense. It's not that it's just happened everyone else so why not there, it's happened right in Boulder's backyard.

Re: National, Regional and Local News
It might be a testament to the fact that U.S. brains have notoriously short, detrimental, and selective memories. I don't know.
I just don't know how these words can actually trip off of any American's tongue. Baffled.
