I'm also annoyed by all these women who are "so successful" (doctors: Grey's, Mindy Kaling, that Meryl Streep's daughter show, countless others; this one) and yet emotional idiots/basketcases/weaklings. Oh, endlessly funny.

For fuck's sake. Why do I even bother trying to write two sentences that make sense anymore? I just need to scream at people via email and use a lot of swearing, and BOOM! Book deal. I hate the world and am already having a very difficult time concentrating at work. Now I just want to go home and eat some Ron Burgundy…
I get the point but tearing down one woman while railing against the tearing down of women in general is uncalled for. We get it. Many of us even AGREE with the deeper point. I just think there's better ways of going about it than by tearing down one (or several) women. Want to uplift black women? DO THAT. But don't…
Seems to me someone thought the owner was doing the wrong thing by letting his cat roam around town and thought they were 'saving' rather than 'stealing' and then thought this was a cute way to let him know his cat was safe. I think these people are clearly assholes who have no idea that they are assholes. The kind of…
Thank you for this. My dad raised me kind of as his "boy", baseball, cars, "manly stuff" and though I eventually got myself some female friends, when I was younger I had more in common with boys. I naturally gravitated toward them for friendship. I had sisters, but one was bipolar and the other physically abused me…
It is NOT a millennial thing. Sorry but the vast majority of my friends, coworkers, and acquaintances that are in their 20's are 100% capable of cooking, cleaning, ironing and changing a tire. You know who can't? A lot of the male baby boomers I know, cuz that's what their mothers and wives are for.
I'm a millenial, and when my father got divorced he couldn't clean, cook or do his own laundry because he didn't know how. But millenials are the WORST, amirite? They're clearly the only ones who don't know how to do this stuff.
I'm the brown-eyed child in a green-eyed generation. I feel your pain :(
What color lipstick is she wearing in the ad? I love it. Also, I'm so susceptible to the right kind of advertising. Not only do I now want this lipstick, I also am pining heart and soul for blue eyes. Three brothers, one with bright blue, one with deep green eyes, another with gray-blue eyes that adjust with what he…
Between Sleepy Hollow and Elementary, I'm beginning to think all tv shows should be smart British dudes who utterly adore the women of color (who are grounded, have lives outside their jobs, and interesting family dynamic) they work with. We could do worse.
This sounds like a criticism-as-compliment some men do when they are pulling that Player BS on you. That dude deserves some serious side-eye.
Hogwarts' #1 Hottie? I'm sorry, that title goes to dark horse champion Neville. But Ron is a solid #2.
Mutually agreed upon rules for fighting are so, so essential.
I'm going to guess that the idea of self-promotion is uncomfortable for you. But you have to do it! Men do it ALL. THE. TIME. The dudebro I was referring to early was really good at it — even when he took credit for what he actually did. He'd subtly work in that he talked with this person or he wrote that memo…
Man, I was into dragons before dragons were even cool. ;)
After the last such post here (or on Hairpin, can't remember), I found my self perched on a narrow ledge of seat next to the apparent winner of the Guinness Record for larges balls. I asked him to scootch over, and he complied by giving me an additional 2 inches, so long as my leg was rubbed up against his. So at the…
Yahoo has these treasure troves of original programming and NOBODY KNOWS ABOUT IT. I marathoned "Burning Love" a few weeks ago on Yahoo and was amazed that they put the money into these web series and then do nothing to promote them. (The first season isn't even online anymore thanks to- I assume- one of those…
I think the groups with female leads (Little Big Town/Sugarland) are putting out better stuff than the individual female singers. Personally, I think Miranda Lambert is the only solo woman act who can put some damn emotion behind her voice. But I also think that country music's emphasis on looks over talent when it…
I work at a country music station and I'd say it's probably 60-40 for us in favor of the men. Of the older stuff (80s/90s) we play, it's predominantly male singers, Reba, Faith, and Shania (the women whose careers have lasted). The new artists are mostly female and then male/female groups. I will say, 99% of the time…
Rub Mah belly!!!
