Same here. I'm not gonna say I love the sound of babies crying. In fact, I'm not a huge fan of anyone under the age of about 20. I'm just not a kid person. But I can't imagine snapping at a parent who is in charge of a little person who doesn't understand what's going on and can't have it explained to them. Like,…

All the separates make the models look like bag ladies. I love it. I want it all.

I agree. I wear leather shoes, eat meat, etc., so I'm aware it's pure hypocrisy, (and to be totally honest I just don't CARE all that much about fur as a moral issue) but I was growing up in a time when it was so totally verboten to even think about wearing anything but a bit of heirloom/thrifted fur that I can't…

Also Anne Hathaway seems genuine in some way that Taylor Swift can never manage. I think of Swift as being "nice because girls are nice and I'm a girl so I'm nice," whereas Anne actually IS what she seems. I've been lucky enough to meet her and she's just incredibly warm and generous. Ever since then I've been unable…

Renn always wins any contest in my book. Looking like she does, she's bringing a gun to the knife fight of "who was best."

It's strange, I feel like I so often gravitate towards work by this designer. The various-label BCBG dresses I own are pretty, well-made, and reasonably priced once you're looking at the second market of ebay and such. But I don't really like ANY of this. I love oversized looks (I'm 27 and I still steal things from my…

The men of Jezebel: Making me feel super-icky about anything with a penis since 2010!

A few years ago I moved to Europe by myself. I didn't know anyone and didn't know the language of the place I was going. At first I felt pretty unsafe, but after about a month I realized that I was statistically much safer there than at home (90% of the crimes reported in my Czech neighborhood were people breaking…

If it ever comes up, I've always said my body shape is 'oblong'. I've never seen a puff piece on morning TV come up with that.

I can't be the only tall woman who has dated tall men who was surprised and gratified at how much easier things are - hand holding while walking, kissing standing up, fucking in the shower - when you're close to the same height. I've had to give up a lot of my own crappy gender-paradigm ideas since I started dating,…

I think it can be different for different people. Part of my longstanding sleep issues stems from the fact that I *can't* get enough sleep to get me through a whole day - even if I get 10 hours, I wind up unable-to-function tired about midway through the day. Then I nap for a few hours and fuck up my night sleep even…

Okay, I did some quick wiki searching, and it turns out that no fucking way is this the first time they've revamped the Monopoly tokens. Just reading the list reminded me of a bunch of other pieces I KNOW I've played with that aren't apparently in the game anymore. Not only the horse guy, but the cannon and the…

This confused me as well, because I was ALWAYS the guy riding the horse, but none of the press about this mentions him. Is he safe because everybody else loves him as I do? Did you and I share a hallucinatory experience? I don't know what's going on here.

I think setting aside the notion that you can only have one "best" friend will save you a lot of grief. Actually, set aside the notion that everyone else can only have one "best" friend. This whole article is kind of based around that moment of finding out the spot isn't open and it just seems so absurd to me. Surely…

It's a huge problem, but it also has a simple solution. I have no qualms about saying "excuse me" to those people and smiling sweetly at them until they move their shit. No-one has ever done anything other than make way. They're total dicks for trying to pull shit to get more space for themselves, but I think that if…

When I was living in Prague, the major metro stations had projection screens on the opposite side of the tracks from where you waited. Along with news and weather, they regularly played funny little cartoons to teach you how to behave on public transportation. This is my favorite one, but you should watch them all:

"I'm not a pedant, I just like to split hairs."

My mother always kept two bowls - one for kids in costume and one for teenagers (even in costume, she hated teenagers trick-or-treating). One bowl was full of candy, the other was full of plain, yellow, unsharpened #2 pencils. Kids got one, teenagers got the other, unless they were chaperoning a younger sibling.…

The only way Tracie could do better is by copy/pasting Modest Proposal in its entirety & sitting back to watch people froth at the mouth.

I really feel that fact about her being his goddaughter should be sent to #corrections. It changes the whole story and makes the tone of the Dirt Bag article seem unnecessarily mean.
