I'm not cocoaing on about it, but this column is nonpareiled in its udder misconfection from the start. You think I want to hear about whether you liquor and where? I don't bean to be 78% dark about it, but just because you're some big author who can afford to drive a Ferrero, I don't care whether you're from Mars or into pocket Lindt, and I will not get into a Hershey/she said argument with you -- just keep it to yourself, PLEASE.

I was going to write that these people are just so full of s**t, but I think they're just so full of themselves.

Her friend is better off without this gormless toxic tit in her life. High maintenance narcissism. Her friend didn't recognise her incredible and special sexual status and so she had to go!

I hadn't heard this new form of sexuality either.

If I liked shagging trees would I be an arborosexual? I suppose getting one's wood would be appropriate then?

I'm getting to the point where I've had enough of these insufferable bores. The problem is the glorification of their inadequate personalities by society.

On the plus side, the woody jokes would write themselves.

Woodpeckers, do they shag trees?

I find it interesting that sex within a healthy marriage is “love-making”. There is no identity except to say “husband and wife”; the sex is kind of assumed. However, outside that exclusive union there are numerous sexual identities: abrosexual, pansexual, gay, trans, adulterer, rapist, prostitute, pedophile, and so on. It is sad when someone is inclined to push sexuality to the forefront of one’s identity as if it’s the most important thing about them. They are greatly deceived. There is so much more we can offer the world than our sexuality.

When it's the ONLY thing they have to offer, they push it to the front.

Jenna, about the licorice thing? I just want you to know: I care...

I do too, as long as she doesn't touch MY licorice. I'm very possessive of my licorice. And my chocolate too for that matter.

I love both black licorice and chocolate. What does that make me? Does anyone care? I certainly don't. Sigh. In this social media age, we seem to share anything and everything that is irrelevant or none of anyone else's business. Yet somehow we lack true intimacy and connection. I suspect it's because most of us don't really have a clue what true intimacy and connection are all about. Sometime sex is part of it, but not nearly the whole enchilada.

Speaking of enchiladas, I think a lot of this got started by people posting pictures of what they ate for breakfast, lunch AND dinner. I lost interest early on. I CERTAINLY don't care about what anyone does in their bedroom, living room or kitchen, just don't ask (or force) me to participate, in person or in my mind. Bringing that into the workplace and sharing it with children has to STOP! There isn't ONE RIGHT that any straight white person has that any BIPOCLGBTQRST+++ does not. Period.

Verbal selfies. When does it end?

Just like the women who prance around mostly naked, when you believe that all you have to offer is a piece of flesh (or what your "preferences" are with your piece of flesh), you MUST, at all costs, flaunt it, scream about it, make flags about it, lose friends over it, etc ad naseum. It is the ultimate worshipping of SELF over God... which is the defining trait of satanism: "do what thou wilt".

Poor Emma. She really should file a hurt feelings report. 😔

Wish I could give your comment 10 Likes. You obviously understand the true nature of reality. I mean, the true nature of the New Abnormality.

Yep, if it happens in your bedroom, I don't need to hear about. Unless it involves black licorice.

Then yum!

Hmm.. I don't know Jenna. It seems like you just pumped out this hateful substack article because you're jealous of Emma's attention and her super interesting sexual attraction to all of the colors of the rainbow. Admit it. You secretly wish there was a news article about your love for black licorice and hatred for chocolate.

Kidding aside, you're spot on as usual about these damn snowflakes. Let me tell you something about myself that is completely inappropriate and then be offended that you don't give a damn. WHO CARES IS RIGHT!

Damn snowflakes. (https://youtu.be/fCMwlorNEZk)

Thanks for getting click baited so you could pump out this laughathon!

Jenna, when I read the "opener" you posted, I thought "Surely this is some sort of joke." Next my brain said "This does not compute" (a comment stolen from the robot in that ancient TV series "Lost in Space"). Oh well, I enjoyed your humor and other people's comments, too.

But then I realized you'd provided a link to the actual whole article. And I had to click. Just had to. Read the whole dang thing. Now I'm speechless except to say OMG. (Is this level of navel-gazing, public navel-gazing I mean, another bizarro result of the "self esteem" nonsense kids were subjected to in U.S. public schools during the 1990's?)

I'm going to have to eat a whole bar of dark chocolate (80+% cocoa) to recover.

As an abrocaffeinate (meaning formerly caffeinated - as in having abrogated caffeine) I feel I'm routinely discriminated against. This means no chocolate too. Double discrimination!

I also vote for black licorice (!) though few seem to agree.

“ I write to write—to entertain, to enlighten, to draw parallels and conclusions from the complexities of life to some universal experience”

And you certainly do dear Jenna. And the best part - you make us laugh. Which is so desperately needed these days.

Would love to know how you and Pierre feel about the news on the FDA settling.

Also would like your take on Princess Kate having cancer. Possibly a psyop for a cancer vaccine? Remember. All the world’s a stage. 😡

Thank you friend! The FDA ruling is great because it puts ivermectin back in the spotlight… But as always it’s a lot too little, far too late.🙄 as for the Kate news… I honestly haven’t decided how I feel about that yet. If it’s true, obviously I feel compassion for her and wish her nothing but the best. The reality is I trust nothing, so it’s hard to say.🤷‍♀️
