Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Egad. And she may still be with him? Double egad.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I hope to hell that girl dumps his worthless ass. No man that would do that to another human being is worth it.

God, that's so awful and vicious. I echo Hec's sentiment.

If she married him, I... just don't know what to think. From that article:

After battering Rihanna, Brown went on to criticise her on his Facebook home page, but as the angry reactions started pouring in against him, the singer changed stance by expressing remorse over the incident.

OMG HATE.

Ann, that's a ferret.

I was going to say, good for him at least for apologizing and trying to get help so it won't happen again. So that maybe he'd treat his next girlfriend better.

I'm no longer sure he's capable of that.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

19 Fucking years old. NINETEEN. And being in the media spotlight I think there's less chance of him changing, since there are so many people willing to give him a pass just because he's big.

One can hope. But I do want to grab Rihanna and...well, I don't know what I'd do.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Apparently she'll believe anything you say after you smack the shit out of her so try that?

(No no no. I get that there are layers upon layers of problems when someone stays with a person who has abused them. But JESUS WOMAN.)

Wow. That's extreme. I hadn't heard what had happened--I mean, things getting a little out of hand is one thing, and maybe you can think with some counseling and some sincere apologies and some "no one was there but us and you don't know the situation" or whatever, but...that's WAYYYYY beyond "things getting a little out of hand", in my book. WAAAAAAAAAY beyond. HELLA beyond.
