Oh Steph. I'm sorry. It's a year of woe. I wish we could make it better, but all we can do is be here. I'm thinking about you both.

Someone must have googled "good speeches by first ladies" and gone from there. Like when kids just copy stuff into their papers by accident. Such an easy mistake!

This. Speaking as a teacher, that is exactly what this feels like. The changing of a few key words and rephrasing is classic student plagiarism stemming from not knowing where to start.

When the speakers were introducing Baio they kept reminding people he was Chachi so they knew who tf he was.

Steph, this year has sucked so bad for you and Tim. I'm so sorry!

Apparently, Melania Trump's fake college degree did not cover the topic of plagiarism.

Which seems fitting, in a way.

Here's something amusing (to me) illustrating why placement of adjectives is important: I am editing something and have NO idea from context whether "several small animal studies" means several small studies conducted in animals, or several studies conducted in small animals, like mice.

I kind of DO wish I had gotten to edit Pres. Obama's article. I bet HE used adjectives properly.

This reminds me of Baxter Black being described as "a former large animal veterinarian."

I am not trying to defend Baio at the RNC because that's ridiculous but then someone I followed on Twitter used an ethnic slur to express her disgust at what he was sayin which is just as annoying.

Teppy, I'm so sorry. ALS is terrible. My paternal grandmother had it. 2016 seriously owes you some goodness.

It owes us all one hell of a refund.

What is wrong with people?

I think a lot of what we're seeing is what people have felt but haven't thought they could come out with in public. Whatever happened to "silence is golden"?
