I know when my teenage boys were playing football and involved in other sports they could sure scarf down two burgers each, plus fries and a half gallon of milk then be hungry again in an hour. Six burgers for a family doesn't sound so far fetched, especially if they were the singles on the dollar menu.
But anyway when did everyone become so sensitive. So someone hurts your feelings. I use to tell my kids the ol' adage "sticks and stones...."
How are young people ever going to learn to cope in the real world if its acceptable to go running to the media demanding compensation every time someone says or does something they dont like.
I'm wondering at the apparent contradiction displayed.
Someone incapable of confronting an insult directly and effectively, one-on-one style to assuage a slur but is now capable of exposing herself to the entire world? Whassup with that?
Someone hollering that kind of insult about me in my presence for any number of others to hear and they'd have been a featured chicken-bits item on the next menu posted.

Methinks this has very little to do with ego and EVERTHING to do with how much $$$ can I get along with 15 minutes. If you look back at the smelly article, the cops saw right through this piece of glass and got back in their cars and drove away, leaving this phony temper-tantrum behind. Well done cops.
