My Daddy Says
What do you think about people asking/telling their social media contacts to keep their polarizing views and debatable data to themselves?
Are they acting like children, or would many kids handle such disagreements more effectively?
Never Brush Your Teeth with Household Bleach
Why don't certain people follow instructions?
Is the person or the written policy the problem?
The Hand Sneeze Tale

Are we on the same page? If not, is that okay?
