You mean Chernobyl in Russia, the one that’s nearly 2,000 km away?

Being a taller lady, in particular, is less of a picnic than you’d think. Not only do you have fun with things like the sensation of your knees pressing into the seat in front of you for hours on transport (the single worst feeling in the world, IMO), AND lots of pants have ridiculous inseams like 29” (which, I’m…

Nobody tell her Pete Wentz is half-AfroCarribean, she’d just about shit herself.

It seems like the cops won’t stop until every protestor or potential protestor is dead or in jail, and the protestors won’t stop until all the bad cops have lost their jobs.

“They have to model the very best parenting 100% of the times because otherwise the plebs won’t know how to do it” is the very stupidest reasoning I’ve ever heard for anything, and I’ve been reading Gawker for 7 years.

My office in DC hosts at least a few meetings for out-of-towners every month, and because they’re doing us a solid coming out and helping us, we cater breakfast and dinner in the office, and then take them out to restaurant dinners every night they’re here. Our catering company is very good and offers a wide selection…

The only way this could’ve been better was if the employee didn’t even open the box, just flipped it over and handed it back.

Lol I thought this was it, too. I love working in DC, but that person you described is like 4 out of every 10 people, and 5 of the rest are tourists this time of year.

You need to get into DC for brunch more often. Busboys and Poets does a salmon eggs benedict that’s pretty good, for one, AND you can have it with 6-7 DC Tap Water cocktails, get drunk, and then go thrift shopping on 14th street.

Good advice. A place near my work does packages of 7 treatments where everything after that is free, and I’m going to keep an eye out in the fall to see if they have any sales and see if I can get my whole legs done (I have very thick inner thigh hair that gives me fits that I’d love to see gone forever).

Fortunately, it doesn’t take very much research to recognize that that particular diacritic mark doesn’t do what she wants it to in any language.

The shiny ones are a mystery to me, because they’re at least 25 years out of date, but are still sold EVERYWHERE. And sometimes I just need a pair of invisible nude tights (I do a lot of work in DC, which is a very conservatively-dressed town and in some circles it’s still considered unprofessional to wear a skirt…

It has to do with the terribleness of the shiny-sheer variety like the ones showcased here. There’s nothing wrong with opaque tights (which is the kind that Americans consider tights) in the winter, or the nearly-invisible nude tights, and there’s a ton of cute fashion tights, but those shiny ones are just too, too…

Nice to know I’m not wanted. I’ll go somewhere else then.

Manchester. It’s not notably worse than calling someone a jackass. I’d show you on a map, but I’m not sure even labeled if it would help.

If you don’t want to be obligated, don’t be in the wedding party. Sit down and eat your limp chicken and dry cake with the rest of the plebs. If you’re in the wedding party, you’ve already signed up to do the wedding party activities, and two or three hours doing some very low-impact volunteer work is not going to put…

Honeyboo, the correct response when someone shuts you down entirely by showing up your ignorance is to walk away. I’ve done my part, now it’s time to do yours and walk away.

Be sure not to say that to the face of bell hooks, Alice Walker, Sherely Anne Williams, Patricia Hill Collins, Angela Davis, Kimberle Williams Crenshaw, Barbara Smith, Demita Frazier, Mary Ann Weathers, Gayle Linch, Eleanor Holmes Norton, Maxine Williams, Frances M Beale, Linda La Rue, Florynce Kennedy, Cellestine…

I should also mention that this week they’ve had round-trip between DC and Charles DeGaulle for approximately $430 in February. I’d snap that deal up too, but I’m not going to have enough time to accrue vacation days between October and then.
