Guys, You Gotta Stop Yelling
Calm down.
Listen, I love men. Huge fan. I don’t even believe the patriarchy exists anymore, and if it did it would be sitting in a La-Z-Boy recliner covered in Icy Hot. Women who continually traffic in their so-called victimhood at the hands of men mostly annoy me. Did I mention I love men?
But something’s up with guys. They’re yelling a lot these days for no discernible reason. If women were yelling with the same frequency and intensity, we’d be called unhinged, hysterical, overly emotional. People would start saying stupid stuff again, like we’re too emotional to be President because we’d start a nuclear war if it were the wrong time of the month.
After all, people already whip out their cell phones and video us every time we raise our voice, post the footage on social media, declare they found another Karen, and then sit back and watch the comments pour in. Karen hunting is a national past time now. But I submit there are a lot more men in the wild losing their shit.
Yesterday I tried to drop my car off at my long-time mechanic for routine maintenance. I turned left into the driveway from a busy street, probably more quickly than I should have. As I pulled in, I realized a van was pulling out. This situation was obviously my fault, but the van kept backing out and was about to hit me, so I honked my horn.
