		<description>That&#039;s the only fucking response you can come up with?
She&#039;s probably in her teens, asshole. She just said all that fucking reasonable shit and you can&#039;t say anything reasonable back because you know she&#039;s right.</description>

		<description>Ugh.
Yeah, I know this is super old and doesn&#039;t even matter anymore. But fuck, I thought, why not? People are still trolling this piece of shit anyway, so why not someone who has something to say? I support V and I agree with what she had saying... and I&#039;ve reviewed the facts and I know what I&#039;m talking about and blah blah blah...

You sound like a fucking baby. Get over yourself. You&#039;re probably going to read this comment and get &#039;really really mad&#039; the way V did because you know we&#039;re both right. A lot of times, peoples&#039; reactions to people who are RIGHT is to just laugh and make up excuses and laugh some more and blow steam up your reader&#039;s asses just to seem like the dominant one because you think they&#039;re too fucking stupid to read V&#039;s side.

And no, she didn&#039;t make a post dedicated to &quot;how wrong I am in thinking that actively causing traffic is stupid&quot;
Alright, fine. Some people drive stupid. Get the fuck over it.
You don&#039;t need to post a whiny little blog talking about how much you hate traffic. Everyone fucking hates traffic. You sound like a melodramatic teenage girl whining about how much her life sucks saying everyone&#039;s out to get her.

...Seriously... &quot;obsession with Tucker&quot;?
Grow. The fuck. Up.
I don&#039;t even have to say anymore. So you little assholes just reading his side and not even bothering to read V&#039;s blog aren&#039;t making a contribution to anything. You&#039;re just nodding your fucking head at the last post and everything he said like the little fucking sheep you are.</description>

		<description>I found this site through reading VA.
Found VA through reading Disk Masterson

Disappointed that she would pay any attention to this site, but her commentary on it is just about entertaining enough to make up for the low quality of subject matter

How can you crazy people cry &quot;The KIDS!! The KIDS!!&quot; 
Seriously, VA offers some of the most relevant and stimulating anecdotes about the realities of child-rearing in this age, I think most people would be hard-pressed to call her a &quot;threat&quot; to children haha.  I dunno, thats just my opinion.  If you take her childish humor too seriously, you&#039;re bound to miss the deeper messages in her writing - yes there are valuable messages in her writing if you can just take a minute to read between the lines.

I appreciate VA because she has a voice that speaks for people like me.  She says the things Im too polite or liberal to say.  Even better than that, she&#039;s a learner, willing to self-analyze and reflect, while also observing the world around her. Meaning.. Im sure if you approached her with a complaint in a calm yet assertive way, and make valid points, she&#039;d listen.   Thats just the kind of person she comes off as to me.

I haven&#039;t read this site yet so I have no real commentary on Ryan, except for the fact I think its lame to reveal a strangers identity.  There are a lot of reasons to keep one&#039;s identity anonymous.  I think its particularly admirable for a writer to aid in preventing readers from being distracted - by pre-conceived notions (about race, gender, age).  That way, your interpretation of the writing isn&#039;t swayed by something irrelevant; you can just focus on the subject matter instead of the author (obviously none of you like doing that).  But more importantly, keeping your identity secret in such a public place as the internet is an easy way to keep yourself and your loved ones safe.  Its perfectly logical.  If more people would take such precautions, we wouldn&#039;t always be having to fight censorship to protect their safety for them.

I wish I could express my thoughts more succinctly.  Oh well, hope some of you read this. VA is fun and interesting to read.  Dont get so worked up.  She might be spreading a little hate, but at least she&#039;s typically spreading it in a reasonable direction (towards lazy and brain-dead people)  If you&#039;re not in those categories, then, you shouldn&#039;t be offended by her writing, so relax! :)

 Im glad she doesn&#039;t have open comments, because I&#039;d probably end up spending hours reading and responding to them than actually reading her blog (like I am right now with this one...)

Ok gunna go read this ish now.  Perhaps I&#039;ll come back and offer a review.
Peace</description>

		<description>dude, say wany you want, but her writing is pretty damn interesting. sure she can be a genocidal bitch(figuratively) but she keeps your attention. Oh and you sir, are a hateful, spiteful bitch(i think you are a man, but your writing suggests otherwise) please, refrain from being a total douchebag in the future, and maybe your own fucked up life won&#039;t seem so terrible.
with all due respect, which is none,

		<description>In all fairness, Ryan, you didn&#039;t write that actively causing traffic is &quot;stupid&quot; -- you wrote that driving too slowly is &quot;the most evil act one can engage in&quot;.  Frankly, when I read shit like that, I envy the author.  That&#039;s right, I envy you, Ryan.  If being stuck behind a slow driver is the evilest thing that&#039;s every happened to you, then I&#039;d say you&#039;ve truly led a charmed life.  I just wish you&#039;d realize that your &quot;most evil&quot; characterization has no relevance to reality for most people.  You deserved to get called on that comment.

		<description>Oh, you poor, poor child. I am but a minor and I found her identity through only two or three clicks of my mouse in less than half an hour. Really, it isn&#039;t hard. I could email her if I wanted, and tell her how amazing I am for doing that so easily while every other attention whore groped for attention. Groped into the cold, dark void of space, feeling desperately for someone to notice their amazing feat. Young child. Twenty Minutes. Internet. I realize I have more information to work with than you could ever know. And you think you&#039;ve done a great deed, an astonishing accomplishment. You&#039;re so great. You deserve a medal. If the moderator is going to delete this I AT LEAST can ask to let a few more people read this, just for the lulz. Or at least meditate on it, if you&#039;re even able to do that. [I understand the need to weed out bots, which is what I assume the box underneath this one is for, but really? Your name?]

		<description>Dear god. I hate you. She&#039;s a wonderful writer, always interesting. But you are just a whiny little brat. I&#039;m probably half your age, and I act more mature then you. Grow the fuck up, asshole. You had no right to post private information on her on the internet. And those who sent it? Perhaps we&#039;ll make it happen to you.
