“Yeah this article is pretty stupid. Just do society a favor and shave your arm...”
– Manuel Quelle
Disgusting comment on an article about armpit hair
This is what we’re up against, everyone: non sequitur arguments, circular reasoning, close-mindedness, pigheadedness.
“Stop being nasty and shave…” It’s like he didn’t read the article. Oh, yea, he probably didn’t read the article...
But... you... wha?
Friend: Why are they re-doing the pavement? It looked nicer before?

The 760 million tons of grain used to feed animals to produce meat could feed 11 billion people and could end global food shortage 14 times over.
I can’t even
This really upsets me.

Actually, the problem is not lack of food. It’s lack of access to food. Think of all the people...

I was shooting a scene in my new film, No Strings Attached, in which I say to Natalie Portman,

Verbal abuse IS abuse.
justlk:
This is such a powerful message. It shows that verbal abuse can hurt as much as physical abuse. That saying “Sticks and stones may break my bones but words can never hurt me” is, in fact, a lie, in my opinion. Words do hurt. A lot.
