Can you remember a time when one person made an entire experience miserable for everyone else? A case of the squeaky wheel getting the oil, perhaps.

White Middle-Aged Men Move Over

What a week for the United States! Confederate flags came down and same-sex marriage was legalized in every state. I am thrilled about it now, but I have a shameful confession to make.
