You’re adorable on that high horse, you. Did you know that even teachers make casual typos on the internet? Calm down.

Undergraduate in a Survey class and our instructor asking us to discuss the racism in Heart of Darkness and the predominately white students all, without irony, stating Nah, no racism here.

No, Fig and Olive is the worst. My husband used to work there. The kitchen is ridiculous, the food acceptable but overpriced.

It just seems like saying "this will cause eating disorders in children" is kind of an extreme stance to take because a tiny person puts on a corset.

More like this, please!

I took this awesome class in college where we would read plays, go see them, and then have class the following morning to discuss the translation of script to stage. So one night when the class went out to see a play we had just read, this really cute guy (not from my class) said something off hand about the size of

I wear a lot of blouses with skirts or dresses, so I might wear something twice before washing if there's no stains or smell. But that is if the weather is cool or temperate. Where I live, it often is pretty hot. So if it's a sweaty day, I'll wash after one wear. Underwear is always one wear before washing. Cardigans

I used to play a lot of really weird pretend games with my elementary school friends:

Ditto!

Well, thanks. And likewise.

Damn, I haven't heard someone bust out de Tocqueville since my college courses in Education. Boom.

As an American Lit teacher whose subject and content is deeply tied to this history I agree. You don't get to shove shitty stuff our country did under the rug just cuz it's shitty.

That looks delicious! My fave goat cheese salad I invented with a friend around Turkey day. Roasted butternut squash, craisins, goat cheese, and toasted butternut seeds on lettuce of your choice with balsamic. *Homer Simpson drool*

See, I would agree with you...except goat cheese. Just a little bit makes everything, EVERYTHING, better. I quit dairy for a month for this stupid cleanse thing I was doing with a friend, and I didn't miss any dairy product but goat cheese. I just, I need it.

It doesn't have to be this hard: Burrito Bowl - Chicken, no rice, easy black beans, corn salsa, lots of pico de gallo and extra lettuce. It is basically the biggest, happiest salad in the world. Ultimately we're talking 3oz of chicken breast and about 1/4c of beans and almost no calories for the lettuce and salsas.

What exactly is being mansplained here? He's quite rightly pointing out that men find it easy to slip into (or simply be in) patriarchal normative modes of thought when surrounded by nothing but other men, especially when dealing with a dynamic of power over others. Sounds to me like the OP even acknowledges his own

Can we all just leave Bruce Jenner the fuck alone? Let Bruce be Bruce and do what he/she (have not heard word of which pronoun Bruce prefers) wants to do without ridiculing or giving our own sage two cents. God damn.

I hear what you're saying, but having planned a wedding I also know that it's pretty gauche to invite an entire group of people you've been friends with since the age of twelve minus two for the sake of an extra hundred bucks. More to the point, half of our mutual friends I saw in pics have the same relationship with

So my good friend (let's call her Tanya) and I found out Thursday night that we had not been invited to our mutual close friend (let's call her Bev)'s, wedding. The two of us found out through photos of the bachelorette party and wedding posted by our circle of friends on Facebook. From the pics, it looks like all of

This is the best story I have ever heard.
