In high school they didn't care, but in Middle school we weren't allowed to bring bags to class. We also had long enough passing times we could get to our lockers between classes.

I actually think people don't just mean sex, I think they mean the role in the relationship.

When I was in school the rule was that you could bring bags to school, but not to class. And it was because bags would go on the floor and create tripping hazards.

I agree that the phone company analogy isn't good. However, YouTube also should have to follow laws which protect employees. There are a lot of people who make money on YouTube and it should be regulated as an employer.
The fact is, laws are not in place to deal with the evolving technology we have today.

Maybe, but there is a certain base amount of respect that everyone wants and should be given. Everyone should treat everyone else with dignity. You accept that this is another person who has feelings and make sure to consider this with your words and actions.

Maybe, but YouTube, being owned by Google, has a certain amount of "for the good of all" branding. People support YouTube in part because it's easy, but also because many people think of Google as "a good company". Making previously available educational content unavailable is a bad thing. Maybe YouTube isn't required to keep hosting it, sure, but we as a consumer base also have very reason to let our opinions on the subject be known. Consumer voices matter. Companies have changed their policies because they upset their consumer base. And that's good. Human spending has always had a bigger impact than government oversight on how good a company aims to be.

You made a claim that was false for two different reasons directly related to word use. I thought it was a more productive response than getting upset and resorting to attacks of character or argument about the legitimacy of the original post.

It really isn't.
First, an anecdote is a short story. Its supposed to be about a specific circumstance and it's often used either to be amusing, or as evidence to support a claim. The above is not an anecdote, because it is not specific enough.
Second, the above post describes a specific situation, while keeping it generic enough to not exclude circumstances they mean to include. It uses phrases like "sometimes people" which is very generic as doesn't pin blame on anyone.
Third, a useful anecdote is usually one that succeeds at supporting its claim. Since this is not an anecdote it cannot be a useful anecdote. However, because it was written with a specific situation and not specific people, readers are able to put people they have meet into this story. It allows people to create their own instant anecdotes. And this does support the claim. The claim of course being: Its wrong not to treat someone like a person because said person does not treat you like an authority.

As a 25 year old, I can confirm. Everyone says you stop being able to party when you are 30. But two years ago I regularly got five hours of sleep, often in the middle of the afternoon, and would go a day without sleep about once every couple weeks on average and I felt fine. Now I get less than six hours and I feel tired, and I have to sleep at night and I can't sleep too early or in too late regardless of how tired I am.

Also, no. So long as the code is still clearly readable, and the bill can be positively identified as not counterfeit you can still use it.

Don't think this would stop most drug dealers from accepting it, plus the kid could easily go exchange the cash for smaller bills ("Can I please get two tens, three fives, and five ones?) at a bank. What you should probably do it get the kid a WalMart card. Or even better an Amazon card. Amazon has pretty much anything the kid could need, but not weed or alcohol.
Also, if you don't want the kid to spend money on weed or alcohol, and you know that is something the kid is prone too, maybe don't give it in a card that says "Celebrate, you've earned it" because you're really sending mixed messages there.

Yeah, it was. I get you are trying to sell news and you need to make all the selling points of the story in as few words as possible, but honestly there had to be a better way.
Perhaps: Nebraska Father jailed after daughters' competition resulted in marriage
This version is at least understandable. I realize the incest isn't clear, but I also feel like leaving that out allows for the creation of intrigue. Why was he jailed? Marriage to who? What sort of competition? Maybe I'm wrong on that, but either way, you shouldn't print headlines that require dechipering.
Edit: Also, you're welcome. No promises on its accuracy I did not look the story up.

If I understand correctly (and I could be wrong, that headline is an absolute word salad) A man who is from Nebraska, married his biological daughter. Previous to their marriage, the woman is question had a competition of some kind, with her half sister, over who would get the privilege of having intercourse with the father. [It is unclear if this man fathered both of the involved women, or if one was of no relation at all] The man in question has been sentenced to time in jail. "Flordia Man" is proud.

Organic just means no pesticides. The reason people equate organic with non GMOs is because there are so many GMOs whose entire modification is "is resistant to pesticides"

It's a lake. And the border at the time wasn't along a river at all, but defined by the 45 parallel. Since the forts construction the border between the United states and Canada has moved, so now it's only the 45 parallel west of the lake of the woods, which is part of Minnesota and Quebec, west of lake superior. The fort is in modern day New York.

Unless her answer was "I've never had sex with the father." Which, I assume will be her answer regardless of the truth.
