   Your two comments contradict each other, and I’d bet a dollar you don’t even see it.

   We’re all in cages—just some are bigger than others.

   Never play counselor to your own friends. Bern is wise here.

   Yes! When I was growing up, my family didn’t pay attention to the dryer, and very few things were hung up; they got folded and put in drawers, and I’d iron them before wearing. When I got married, my husband was used to just hanging EVERYTHING up while still warm in the dryer. I get why my fam didn’t—it’s hot in Atlanta and easier to let the heat dissipate before folding clothes—but I much prefer his way overall.

   I too no longer iron, and I’m almost 50. Haven’t ironed in a couple of decades. Hanging clothes directly out of the dryer is MAGIC and means that VERY few things need to be ironed at all! And I too was doing my own laundry much younger than this.

   Karen is an ageist and sexist slur, and yeah, we don’t need it in the discourse as there are other non-sexist, non-ageist ways to express worry that this woman’s tone and demeanor are going to lead to problems. I agree with the folks who say she should not be touching Shannon, and the way it’s drawn, it looks like she’s grabbed her arm rather violently.

   If Bernice and Luann were guys and PiGuy were a girl, Bernice and Luann would have recognized this timeworn tactic of “please don’t try to flirt with me—I’ve got a significant other already.” It’s interesting to see this common scenario genderflipped.

   Psh, I’m 49 and have been married to my beloved almost a quarter century. I’m “boring” and always have been. It’ll happen for Bernice (and Luann) when it happens, but it’s easier at college.

   I have a well-used Kindle app on my phone in addition to longform news… not everyone looking at their phone is mindless.

    Nah. Most workaday colleges aren’t seeing protests. I teach at a state university in the metro Atlanta area and there’s not been a peep. Asked one of my studetns and she said “We’re TIRED, Professor.” Same, kid.
