Speaking up for what you believe in is everyone's right including those with an opinion different to your own. Until/Unless Chic Fil A starts to discriminate in their business practices - meaning not being an equal opportunity employer - than I don't have an opinion regarding their business. I am not against gay rights,…

1st of all anyone who compares this judgment to 9/11 gets no sympathy from me - what a disgusting comment. This paves the way for the actual victims to file and win civil suits against Penn State and rightfully so.

Agree. One persons mediocrity is another's success. Like running a race and coming in last - if you're a person who's never run a race before - isn't it still successful you've accomplished something you never have before? You know you were last... but it's still better than sitting on your @$$ watching.

I knew I was going to find a Chic Fil A discussion here lol. I'm quite sick of hearing about it... because I don't think a private business owner expressing their personal views is quite this news worthy. He doesn't support something that many others do not support. He has the right to voice that opinion as I have the…

Hello group! I've been away from this site for a while. Bagge72 - We used to live in Quincy up till 2 mos ago, now we are north of the City. My husband liked the adams st Quincy PF better than the Dorchester one... I found it crowded evenings till about 8-830 though. I used to really enjoy running outside down Wollaston…

Right. Glad I don't live in AZ.

Hadn't seen that article - just what was posted here. If this is true: "The NFL said as many as 27 players were paid up to $1,500 for vicious hits that would knock opposing players out of the game or force them to be carried off the football field." Meaning that they were paid not just to "hit" the intended player, but…

Everyone strives to improve to their "ideal" body. Would it bother you if she said she was too skinny? OMG why can't I gain weight? People are different with different goals. Support each other's goals. Stop comparing and start supporting. That's what friends do.
-
Right - and I don't think this is happening... I don't believe players are being paid to send guys off the field in a stretcher - yes that would be wrong. Bounties like I said for sacking the QB or other normal game play as extra incentive I see no issue. I have seen guys step out for a few plays who got the wind knocked…

I bout it at costco for like 7 bucks

No, I didn't miss the point, I never said it was OK to intentionally say try to break someone's leg. I said: They are paid to intentionally physically stop other players. Injuries are part of the game. They are always trying to intentionally hurt each other in some way to slow each outher down. Every team has a game plan…

Have the talk now because obviously you want to. But even if you get him to say what you want to hear, know that it may never come to be. You're both in your mid 20s... and things change. I don't know many men who are ready at their mid 20s and therefore are uncomfortable with the discussion. Maybe he just isn't sure what…

I shop for my husband at times and there's not a lot... I hate those too long shorts and he's a runner, but short shorts aren't for him. I usually find nice in between length ones on sale at TJ Maxx or Marshalls or City Sports and get him those non cotton athletic shirts - not muscle shirts.

Bruins by default and husband is a closet Habs fan... at least while we're in Bruins territory! I'm not really a loyal hockey fan though... when we move I'll happily cheer for the home team... or even the Habs... shhhhhhhhhhh!

Personal Choice. The pitfall to early announcement is possible miscarriage and then having to tell everyone that too... That's why some people choose to wait.
-
I think my problem is what he did does not meet the criteria for any of the definitions of manslaughter... I do not think everyone's limits are the same. It is impossible to predict that this type of action would cause a death. Suicide is a personal choice. Unless you KNOW the person is "suicidal" and intentionally commit…
-
^^^ This! My husband and I both think we are mind readers at times... and we both suck at it - bigtime! Never assume the other knows what you're thinking, and never think they SHOULD know if you've not said it. COMMUNICATE and try to do it lovingly and respectfully even if you're pissed/frustrated. And Congrats!

While I find his act repulsive, I don't hold him responsible for someone else's suicide. His act is the equivelant of a pervert putting a camera in the ladies room or anyone else putting a video camera somewhere hidden. Those are the crimes and consequences he should be dealing with. It's not equal to manslughter. A…

I love it when I see overweight people running!! They are trying to improve and it makes me smile. Anybody running is inspiring me to run faster and try harder... sometimes I chase them :)
-
Exactly. I am also in the Boston area as is the OP - My Dad's grave is in a huge city cemetary with miles of paved roads. He was overweight and unhealthy almost his entire adult life. I know he would be so happy if I ran around his cemetary. If I ever saw someone truly vandalizing anything there, you bet your bottom I…
-
My Dad is buried in a giant cemetary. I wouldn't take issue with anyone I saw running on those cemetary roads. I would never jump to judgment and if I do park on the main road and run in to visit Dad - I wouldn't like getting crap about it from some stranger in the same cemetary. My Dad would be happy I ran in there. I…

Nobody's talking knives and weapons. I'm talking about playing football and letting them play the game. The game is physical and people get hurt and players are specifically going after other players all the time. Who the heck said anything about blades or that THAT was OK? Certainly I did not and to compare the two is…
-
Nope. Never. Yes I can say that with 100% certainty. In the past, I haven't ever cheated either. I would never hurt my husband or disrespect our marriage for a cheap thrill.

Football is my favorite sport. Rodney Harrison is my all time favorite player. He was called the "dirtiest" player.... please. Football is a tough physical sport. Plenty of players are hurt during "clean" play. The fact is, unless you're in the locker room with them, you have no idea what the coaches are telling them for…
-
I consider what you describe a type of physical assault in which case you have the right to defend yourself. Same thing if a woman grabbed a mans kahuna. That's all physical... out of line non-physical doesn't justify a physical response.
-
So it's OK to smack someone in the face because simply because you think they are out of line? Whether you're a man or woman, that's a piss poor excuse.
-
Congrats & Enjoy!

^^^^ This too - all email pushes to my phone so my husband would have know his sister got him Springsteen tix for his birthday if he had my phone last week since she forwarded me the info and txted me to make sure I made sure he didn't buy his own. Yes some secrets are OK. Some things like this would get deleted before…
-
I have let my husband use my phone and vice versa - I don't have a problem with him seeing what's on it. I wouldn't want to swap because I simply have no interest in doing that. I would lose all my contacts/appointments etc because technology has made me stupid, so yes it's a matter of not having an interest in doing…
-
Disagree. I have actually never cheated on anyone and I wouldn't want to swap phones simply because I'm not interested. I have no interest in seeing/snooping through my husbands phone because of a little thing called trust.
