I've done it to make a point before. My cousin was posting some seriously crazy/offensive political stuff. My mom asked me to just hide him instead of unfriending him, but I actually wanted him to know it was offensive to me. Family drama be damned. And there really was no fallout. I saw him at a family function…

I am sure plenty of people have defriended me but I've never noticed it. How do people keep track of that? Do they send notifications when you've been defriended now?

This is great! But have you guys seen "Written by a Kid" on Geek and Sundry?

I came down with a nasty bout of cancer (stage 4, of the face (technically parotid gland)) when I was 6 months into a new city and single. It was extremely difficult to be far from my incredibly supportive family but I was very fortunate that my roommates, local friends, and coworkers were wonderful people who wanted…

I am glad I am not the only one who binges on television shows. I'll try not to shame spiral the next time it happens. Shows that I have binge-watched include:

I also gave up after the first three! And refused to watch it for a very long time. But then I caved and started watching it again and discovered that it is AMAZING. The first three episodes are pretty much the most gruesome out of the whole series to date (except for one horrifying sequence in Season 4, but you…

This is great. My old favorite bathroom graffiti was: "I do love Steve, and someday I will marry his brother, or someone likewise."

I think dogs like socks because they probably have a strong smell of their people. And they love their people.

my already decent opinion of Ms. Hathaway just went up by a lot due to her use of "gauche" there.

I want to keep watching that Feynman fellow explaining things. What does keep the train on the tracks?

So I posted this as a reply to FormerlyTidymaze, but I will post it here too because I think this is an interesting discussion and I am interested in everyone's perspective!

I can see that argument, but I just don't agree. I read Jezebel frequently actually and this just struck me as different from the usual mocking. It seems like slut-shaming, implying that she has no worth if she's not objectifying herself.

I love the sarcastic/tongue-in-cheek tone of this site, particularly the dirt-bag part. However, I was a bit surprised and disappointed at your suggestion (actually, statement) that Megan Fox will not or should not get any roles if she won't take her clothing off for them. She has never been a favorite of mine,…

In the case of nature documentarians, I completely understand non-intervention. It is nature. This is how we learn. However, in other cases, I can never understand the unbelievably challenging ethics of photojournalism (nor can I judge); it's why I could never be a photojournalist. That photo that you are referring…

I am such a scrooge! I know this is cute, but my first thought was concern about diseases being communicated between these two species that do not typically commingle. Probably a dumb concern.

I hate to be the person pointing out grammatical errors, but for a professional writer, the guy sure did use "fellow female shoppers" incorrectly in the first sentence of his article. Unless he is a female shopper.

President Reagan's doodles, stolen and published by Lady Thacker are way more interesting/weird. What's up with that torso?

It seems like many people are interpreting Jodi Picault's tweet as a complaint that she is not getting the attention she deserves. But to me it seems more like a commentary on the general state of criticism — like maybe she was thinking of legions of deserving women and minorities who do not get recognition (not…

I like that Kristen Bell. She's a keeper. They could just write some wedding vows on a post-it. I believe that qualifies as a marriage license in Hollywood/Seattle. Also, their gay friends could do that too!

Christina Hendricks probably doesn't own that bag. She is likely getting paid by the label to carry it. See how she's flashing it at the photogs?
