The short bus has nicer amenities than the other bus. Namely, seat belts and air conditioners. But anyway, I'm actually not offended by the use of short bus because it all comes down to intent. Because I've been reading your blog forever, I know that you absolutely don't mean it in the offensive way, you mean it in the "oy, what an idiot" way. Honestly, so much is about intent, and if people stopped giving words themselves so much power without looking at the intent behind them, we'd all be a lot better off.Ellienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5883634615775822475.post-38809568082409696832010-12-13T04:37:07.494-05:002010-12-13T04:37:07.494-05:00Empty space speaks volumes!

Today, however, I am a bit disappointed in your use of "Shortbus." Yes, I know I am joining the ranks of the Offended States of America by pointing it out to you, but it is a little insensitive to those of us who have children that ride the so called "short bus." It implies that you consider those with special needs as dumb.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5883634615775822475.post-53445551620415765062010-12-10T08:39:25.432-05:002010-12-10T08:39:25.432-05:00Bahahahahaha.Bahahahahaha.ShrinkingDochttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10867808515747730556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5883634615775822475.post-22435422383246231702010-12-10T08:33:59.475-05:002010-12-10T08:33:59.475-05:00"I thought neurologists didn't NEED scans..."I thought neurologists didn't NEED scans?
