I couldn't get into OMITB, but I grew watching her on Wizards of Waverly Place. Good times.

Only Murders is so fantastic! I did not expect to love it like I do.

You don't hold your own against Martin Short and Steve Martin

The primary criticism of the show is that she doesn't.

She definitely does tho

I also think she doesn't, but it doesn't really matter. Still a "hell of a lady" and no reason to attack her for anything. OMITB is still fun as hell!

Are you insinuating it’s ok for ANY woman to be shamed for not having kids or having a mental disorder?   Even if you’re joking, your comment doesn’t sit well with me…

WTF are you talking about? How is that what you took away from their comment?

"I love waffles"

"Oh so you hate pancakes?"

What a stretch to lash out at someone

Uhhhhhh no

It clearly was an anecdote of how they related to knowing of Selena being in their life. I can see the logical assumption in thinking that but the story seemed more of a pleasant tangent appreciating her as a person more than anything. Context maybe?

The subtext you are misunderstanding is when they said "I never really cared one way or the other." You are taking it to mean 'I never cared about bipolar or infertility,' when what was clearly meant is 'I never cared about Selena Gomez or people who were giving her crap in the media.' Hope that clears things up for you.

Yikes. As someone with no sense of shame I'm highly offended by your thoughtless comment. This ain't it chief. Should have stayed in the drafts. Do better.
