Also, when did I say I "got mad"? This was about things that are crush deal breakers for you...the fact that someone did not get that I was referencing a fairly famous character rather than calling him the wrong name is not someone I would date. So thank you for your rant about HOW FUCKING AWFUL Dan Brown is. You just…

Brides and Grooms of Earth:

Nothing stops me!

Bravo. If you have reduced your meat consumption that much, good for you!

I remember how defensive people got around me when they found out I'd stopped drinking. It's like no matter how innocuously you make that statement, someone will always feel as if you are personally judging their habits.

I imagine the label exists to make it a) easily identifiable b) build community, just like most other labels on lifestyle choices. A person is by no means required to adhere to a labelled diet, and can very well say "I try my best, by my own definition." If the label helps people in the aforementioned ways, however,…

what's a chequebook?

Just finished my MFA ($60k in debt!!!) and I feel like no one ever calls the schools out for their bullshit spending. My school was a state university, and they were constantly doing construction, renovating buildings, handing out free shit to prospective students, wasting food LIKE CRAZY and holding "free" events. I…

What are you on about? Every woman should be able to give birth without worrying about paying for it. I had no idea that you have to PAY to give birth in the US that is beyond fucked up. You guys need a public health system - its not called "socialized medicine" anywhere else - its called the minimum standard of human…

You've got a BUNCH of assumptions going on here and I'm not sure if all of them hold. First of all, you're assuming that working harder than others is rewarded - but that is certainly not true in all offices. Secondly, you also seem to be assuming that only young people don't have kids, and thirdly that everyone has…

Does the director seriously think people are paying attention to the naked girls' eye contact with the camera? They are naked. Men probably don't even notice their eyes. Young girls are not watching this and going, "Hey, this isn't degrading, because look at the way she looks at the camera!"

I used to like Robin Thicke…

Oh my god Graham Norton puts Leno and Letterman to shame. Pour yourself a drink, type his name into youtube and enjoy your evening.

I may not live in the UK but I think Graham Norton is a treasure. I always watch his show once the episodes appear on youtube, he always has the best guests and some of the craziest and funniest moments on late night television. This weeks with Steve, Kristen, and Chris was really great. Though the episode with Adele,…

And then buy dog food with the insurance money. Remorsefully.

I just like how the dog looks at the bill all "fuck off! I'm not paying for your espresso."

I know there is. that's why I'm ashamed.

I assure you that us Brits have been using this particular hand gesture for an awful lot longer than black Americans have.

Can I say how much I'm loving the fact that this discussion includes a man defending feminism and a woman attacking it? Progress!

I really love the articles that say women "forget" to have children...like you went into Target to get shampoo and kids and you came out $200 poorer because you bought a career and a skirt and a bunch of groceries but forgot to get kids, which is what you went there for in the first place.

Well, didn't you know, if you touch a guys dick once, you are then obligated to let him put it into one or more of your orifices. It's like how if you touch a cookie or a piece of cake you have to eat it.
