Kind of surprised that the goon hivemind has come down on the side of a couple of overly religious bigots.

ClemenSalad posted:The parents opinions on gay marriage is the least important aspect of this entire situation. Except that the whole situation kicked off because the mother couldn't handle catching a glance of some lesbians sinning against god or whatever the gently caress

ClemenSalad posted:But thats not the point. Their mom could really loving hate the actor or Chicago or fire and she'd still be right. It doesn't matter at all. The fact that you think the specific topic of the conflict was the important part shows you missed the point. Except there's nothing bigoted about hating the actor or Chicago or fire. I don't think it's reasonable to expect someone to be sensitive to someone else's bigotry but I understand that's not the popular opinion here.

Thursday Next posted:It's not "for no reason". Except none of that makes sense since: in_cahoots posted:From what I've read the OP is volunteering full time, has reasonable spending habits, contributes a bit to monthly bills, is trying to further his career, and is looking for a paid job. He is currently stuck there, he's trying his best to get out but it's not by choice that he lives there. Generally as a parent if your child is trying their darndest to be independant then you shouldn't have any qualms about supporting them until they are. If the OP was just some slacker I'd agree, but that's not the situation that's been described. Darth123123 posted:Get the gently caress out of my house. Done. Who exactly is 'that guy'? That one annoying guy who can't stand bigots?

Morby posted:People are hounding him about it because any money that he has should be either saved to move out or spent for his part of the family bills. I agree that it's good that he has this unpaid internship and I certainly hope that it works out for , but his folks are doing him a HUGE favor here. Raising your child until they are self-sufficient isn't doing them a favour, it's your responsibility as a parent.

Darth123123 posted:He's working at a volunteer position that 80 year old retirees do. He's doing 'work' for a cause, not to further his earning. He has a eng lit degree. And blogs don't count when you don't make money. Nor does a book that. He's been writing since he was a freshman. He's trying to find a paying job - what is so hard to understand about this that people keep ignoring it? Morby posted:Well if we believe that his situation is as abusive as he says, yes. If his parents are physically or verbally abusing each other in the house, he needs to get out. Oh I agree, he has no choice but to put up with it or move out. My point is that he shouldn't be demonised for living at home when he clearly isn't in a position to move out and is working toward fixing that. putin is a cunt fucked around with this message at 02:20 on Feb 1, 2013 |

bunnybean posted:But those are all arguments based on feelings, not facts.  Yes, gently caress us for using our 'feelings' and 'emotions'. I wish everyone tackled every problem with stone cold logic and a complete disregard for how people might feel.
