Have you ever had a series of conversations with someone and it's like they're making vague hints about you that are completely unfounded but they never explain what they mean, or they say it doesn't matter and it just unsettles you and leaves you wondering wtf?
That's what's on my mind right now.

I don't understand how people can (apparently) believe that the earth is flat.

So could it be that those people were expecting a story of human kindness?
It may not have been a malicious rudeness, but still rude to laugh, I guess.


Hmm, I guess that might be at least part of it. I was the first to share, and everyone else's were acts of kindness toward humans. But I suspect the reaction would instead have been "Aww!" if it had been about cute, fuzzy mammals of some sort.

Thank you for the kind words, everyone.

it's what happens when you never leave your county. a lot of people here live like that, their whole world is 50 miles across.

how, every time there's a mass shooting, NRA supporters start demonizing folks with mental illness, 95% of whom never commit a violent crime. don't believe me, a nurse? believe these two psychologists: http://www.philly.com/philly/blogs/thin ... y-ill.html http://www.slate.com/articles/health_an ... urder.html
