How the fuck can you walk in those??? The mind (and instep) boggles.

@Katharsis: Panda with cupcake! Yay!

If we want people to treat us with respect when it comes to our bodies, we should probably take a pass on bashing other people about their bodies.

Way to stand up to the rape culture...and to some rapists.

@CurtCole: And your cockbib too? Baby, you shouldn't have!

Y'all, this is my very first COTD and my birthday is Sunday, so this week is pretty much made !

Amazing. That much color and pattern is hard to pull off, but she looks stunning, and totally right for the occasion.

@plumberry: It's not true, of course, so my guess is it's based on the notion that girl babies are less valuable and more trouble than boys.

@Diziet_Sma: The title came from a friend's comment about how giving birth to a girl can "suck the pretty right out of you."

@MizJenkins: Yeah, not a fan of the Cleopatra hair, myself. But the color is nice.

@la.donna.pietra: WIN!

I keep the Scott Baio poster in my shitass.

@clochette: That's interesting about "whom". I was definitely taught to be aware of when it was correct to use whom instead of who. And I think it's very rare to find an American who uses anything but "fall" to refer to autumn. I didn't realize it was the opposite in the UK!

@la.donna.pietra: Even that is preferable to brung.

@emilyanne: My hang-up is the verb, "bring." If anyone uses a past tense form that is not "brought", it makes me nuts. And in the South, "brang" and "brung" are way more common.

@Lau_To_Thou_Pow: Ooh, "shan't"! I love the word "shall". no one uses it in the US anymore!

@emilyanne: Particular about our past participles, are we? I think Americans have mostly dropped the "t" endings on verbs like burn, spell, spill, learn, in favor of ed endings. It's part of our gloriousness.

@MizJenkins: Also "learnt." Who says "learnt" anymore?

Gwen Verdon is laughing her ass off in heaven.

@paperispatient: They ensue!
