Must Read: The Asshole Problem

  1. Excellent! Many of us who identify with Occupy do have that gray area in our lives where our gift of tolerance lends to hindrance (by assholes - love it!), and I love the solution she offered for the protesters to deal with such offenders! It sounds like the Wall St. protesters are going to be asked to pack it up Sunday, so I hope our people don't go back to too many lattes and hot yoga and forget we need to keep our backbone strong and maintain determination through this next year and beyond! Thanks!

I encourage you to share your own views and experience with me and other readers. How you do that matters, and I'm committed to maintaining a place where readers and commenters can feel safe from adolescent BS. So here's the deal:

There are two kinds of anonymous comments: those by people who have a genuine fear of revenge from the dark side, and those from darksiders just hiding to avoid accountability. You may post comments anonymously, but I reserve the right to treat anonymous comments as found items that belong to me and do with them as I see fit.

If, on the other hand, you're willing to stand by your convictions and post under your own name or a regular handle, your comments belong to you, and I'll edit them only on egregious violations of respect for others.

If this doesn't work for you, I'm sure you'll be happier somewhere else.
