Just take a look at our architecture, entertainment, and obviously, our people. Well, yeah, because we have very important stuff to do and everything IS better in New York. ![]() Everything's Better HereĮveryone thinks New Yorkers are always in a rush and are stuck up. Don't worry, we real New Yorkers will gladly draw you a map and guide you back home. There's nothing worse than a person from New Jersey thinking they're from New York. And on top of that, I still I have I to pay extra for guac, too?! That just ain't right. Chipotle burritos are the most expensive in New York state. Rihanna spoke the truth when she said "All I see is dollar signs." The cost of living in New York City is incredibly high and continues to rise every day. Have you ever noticed that those really cool sounding sweepstakes usually include a trip to New York City? A free trip seems awesome, right? Yeah, if you don't already live here. Why do we keep using this childish phrase meant to shrug off childish behavior to justify sexual assault? People are often so surprised why we continue to use this kind of logic allegation after allegation. However, this logic is what makes 994 rapists that will walk free out of 1000. What does this kind of logic look and sound like? Parochial, vindicate using survivors to support, defend, blame fend, blame, or have to ever support a political after years of therapy, trauma, and fear has decided to come forward with her story in an attempt to prevent Brett Kavanaugh, the Republican Supreme Court Nominee, from sitting on a panel that is supposed to stand for equality and justice. Why do people protect the predators and blame survivors for calumny? The answer is never as simple, but the logic behind it Why do people believe that sexual trauma convicting sexual predators is a "steep price to pay for 20 minutes of action?" " Do you have anything to gain by coming here? Has anybody promised you anything for coming forth with this story now?" - Sen. "Hmm looks like a 's paper." It wasn't, it was yours and now you're embarrassed when you have to get up and go grab it. The teacher starts to hand back the papers and gets to yours. You were a girl, you had chicken-scratch handwriting, or maybe you were a boy who had obnoxiously neat handwriting, but when you forgot to put your name on your paper you were doomed. Forgetting to put your name on your paper ![]() "What? Is my bus even here? How will I get home? Guess I'll never see my parents again, I'll just be trapped here forever. Maybe you didn't even get on the wrong bus, but when your bus wasn't in its typical spot, you got a heart attack. You had two options: either turn around and face the walk of shame, or sit their quietly until everybody gets dropped off and the bus driver thinks to himself "Who the f*ck is that kid?" So if you, like me, take your kids to school in your own personal struggle bus, please know that you're not alone.It's the end of the day and the excitement clouds your vision and there you go, onto the wrong bus. I do, however, find a bit of solace in the fact that this ritual sucks for all of us. When you add in the culture of competition that seems to exist between moms, and the expectation that we wear actual clothes, do our hair, and put on bras prior to that early morning school run, it's no wonder that we're prone to anxious, and even embarrassing, moments. I've been honked at, yelled at, and people have approached my car when I've parked in the wrong place or when it has taken too long to coax my nervous 5-year-old child out of the car. Friends, I've been doing this for six years, and I still mess up this intricate pick-up and drop-off dance. There are 100 rules about where you should pull up, park, or walk your child to the door, and those rules seem to change on a daily basis. In my humble opinion, school drop-off and pick-up is specifically designed to make us parents look like fools. Everyone I know has had at least one embarrassing school drop-off or pick-up moment, and chances are you will, too. ![]() I soon discovered that delivering your child to school and gathering them at the end of the day is full of hot-mess moments, humiliation, and shame. You just pull up and let your kid out and repeat the same process, in reverse, in the afternoon, right? Wrong. Before my oldest started kindergarten, I assumed that school drop-off and pick-up was a no-brainer. 1 Friends son, 5 years old, pointed at a Muslim women in the mall wearing full garb (including face) and shouted, 'Mom, a ninja' dotdotdotgoose Report Final score: 218 points POST Love it 57 View more comments 2 On our way to watch my daughter play soccer, my son was asking me about how babies were made.
