It’s like the buskers on the Paris Metro who wheeled a goddamn amp onto the carriage and proceeded to shriek through 5 stops before coming up to every individual passenger and sticking their hand under our faces asking for money. You’ve just assaulted my ears and now you want me to pay for the privilege? Fuck off…

My mum had short, Mia Farrow hair her entire life and still worked out how to plait and braid our hair in pre-YouTube days. I call bullshit.

If he ordered food off the menu then presumably the Chinese people who run the restaurant don’t have a problem offering those items. But by all means, let’s make this all about you.

Must be a slow news day. Australia is full of magpies who will not only swoop you, but draw blood pecking you. I had to walk to school with an icecream bucket with eyes drawn on the back when I was a kid.

And it’s in quotation marks, so are they saying that it’s not actually a real fact?

I have a great dad who’s still married to my mother who he has a wonderful loving relationship and i STILL date shitty guys over and over. The last one was a mummy’s boy who was trying to cut the cord but without success. I’ve sworn off dating for awhile because I’m really a lot happier on my own and don’t trust my…

There is no “toxic things women/men do”, just things people do and those things can be done by either gender for any number of reasons. It’s not helpful to define problems by gender since that doesn’t usually address the problem. The best way to deal with any problem in a relationship is to have a stable sense of self…

Because right wing authoritarianism or social dominance orientation which tend to be predictors of this kind of discriminatory based behaviour are personality traits and not recognised mental illnesses.

They had to recreate the prom scene from the first movie. It was identical. That takes a lot of planning and editing.

Does anyone really think she’s really Hannah though? Any more than people think Amy Schumer is really like her character in the show? I think the problem is, a lot of women don’t connect with whatever she’s trying to say. A lot of what she says is just basic common knowledge to anyone over 23. It’s less “I’m offended”…

Agreed. I know zero about Dunham as a person so I can only really judge the show on its merits. I watched the first season and found it annoying and pretentious, but I can see why other people like it because it’s entertaining in a car crash kind of way. But let’s not pretend its more than it is. I personally just…

Ha ha ha ha! Oh sweet tiny baby jesus. Go on, say something else! I bet it’ll be amazing.

A lot of women I know (and I mean A LOT) are opting out of dating because a) vibrators exist and b) they have great careers, friends and hobbies and just don’t have time for someone who’s not as high quality as they are. Women are spending increasing amounts of time getting educated, fulfilling their creative needs…

You don’t have to do all the work “because you’re the guy”, you have to do all the work because you’re the one who is interested in the woman. If the woman was the one interested in you then she would have to do all the work because that’s how the laws of space and time work. A person can’t preemptively show interest…

Yeah that’s it, 75% of women just don’t want it enough.

“Bowl a googly” has potential

I’m Australian and that’s the base system I know (90’s for me as a teen). Me and my girlfriends are definitely more aligned with the French though. Blow jobs are what you do with a serious partner and not one night stands. They’re just way too intimate. I don’t really think it’s country specific. Maybe regional or…

She did keep it secret, someone at her publishing house leaked her identity and she sued the shit out of them.

Seriously? The HP books have sold more copies in 15 years than The Chronicles of Narnia have sold in 60 years. The first HP book has sold more copies than The Hobbit. Each individual HP book has sold more copies than Lolita, The Adventures of Huck Finn and 1984. You might not personally like her writing, but it is…

I agree with ReformedMiller, reading the whole series in one go long after publication of the last one (and waaay past 30), I found the first 2 books the weakest as well. They were pretty standard childrens books in that the plot and characters were fairly straightforward and linear. You could really see her…
