No, it doesn't. It questions why there's a double-standard. Nathan Fillion is still a studly dude, but our society continues to reward men despite weight gain, whereas women are essentially asked to leave the party.

Yeah, god knows that the audience never connected with Oprah.

See also, Jason Seagal on HIMYM, although I think he's starting losing it again.

There was an amazing 30 Rock gag about a camera that made people look *even more* like themselves - it turned Jenna into Miss Piggy - and Jack was turned into footage of himself from Hunt for Red October. Hysterical.

He was! Easily the best Dogberry I've seen in my life.

Saying "you can change being fat" is about as appropriate as saying "buy a skin bleaching kit and stop being a POC." It's ignorant and offensive. Your suffering is not diminished by acknowledging that other people suffer too.

a) Is there any reason to think that all things being equal, a fat newscaster would draw lower ratings?

Damn your celebrity tracing, LAAAAAANNNNDDDDDDDDDDDD

I wish I knew why Greg Land hates the female pelvis so much. Srsly Greg, lady legs do not spring directly from the torso. There should be a hip bone visible here, especially on a lady this skinny. (Also, she seems to have received a mastectomy recently.)

I really want to love this, but I hate Greg Land's artwork with a passion.

It'd be so much better sans Greg Land.

Why isn't Parker Posey a superstar? Epic fail, world.

I thought "the man" was a general phrase people used when saying fuck you to any societal pressures.

I...wish I could say I'm happy that altering the face she was born with allowed her to advance her career. I have no real issues with plastic surgery, it's a real equalizer in a crappy playing field in which people who look the 'nicest' get ahead. I'm so over people acting all holier-than-thou with people who admit to

Good god, your mother sounds like the future version of me. My roommate went to Bonnaroo this year, and while she had an amazing time, when she came back and was telling me her stories, I was like "This is literally my idea of a nightmare. Like, I cannot imagine a worse experience."

It's just unfortunate that some idiot film executive is going to take this (deserved) karmic retribution as proof that "films marketed to women just don't work" or that "movies with female protagonists don't sell tickets." Because of course a bad story and bad dialogue would never lead to a film being a box office

No. I get so tired of people assuming that just because a movie flops that the entire genre is a failure and people are sick of it. The Mortal Instruments flopped because the movie was shit. The Host (which wasn't YA, but billed as Stephanie Meyer's first adult novel, but I guess we'll play this game) flopped because

What this totally skips over is that "I feel" and "I think" is actually a technique taught to you by different therapies (CBT, DBT, non-violent communication, etc) that help people have healthy relationships. The purpose of I statements is to be able to communicate your needs without getting derailed into a discussion

I know when I first started into my career and we were going through training we talked about topics such as how to handle conflict in the workplace. I remember one of the ways they said to address conflict was to make "I" statements instead of "You" statements. One of the most used examples was "When you do this it
