Also, it’s worth noting that your original comment didn’t say “Girls want to play with these as much as boys want to play with GI Joe dolls that look like them.” Your point was that representations of people with disabilities are somehow less than representations of people without.

Maybe that’s because no one sells a toy that looks like a gaping asshole. Many kids want a doll that looks like them, and many kids with disabilities want a doll that validates their experience and says they’re worth having a doll made too. So again, go fuck yourself.

Hey, how about you go fuck yourself? I think they’re great. My son has cerebral palsy, and while he’s not into dolls yet at his age, I think it’s great that someday, if he wants one, he’ll be able to have a doll that represents his experience. But thanks for classifying being a person with a disability as “this shit.”

Wow, gorgeous before and after, and what a contrast between this low-maintenance chick’s attitude and the snotty Portland girls from last week! I like you, Liz!

She wasn’t a teenage law student. She was a teenager (19) when their relationship began. Several years later, in 2009, she was a law student when the law school dean contacted him to tell him to stop harassing her. There’s no evidence that she was a law student at 19. It’s not important in the grand scheme of things,

Whoa. I was JUST thinking tonight, as I read it to my son, that I'd have to see if Netflix had a version of it!

Phew, glad I wasn’t the only one turned off by these smug assholes’ little digs.

Ha, just made essentially this comment a minute ago. That was the first thought I had.

I’d be interested in seeing the Venn diagram of people who object to this picture and people who believe that nursing mothers should feed their babies in public bathrooms, rather than breastfeed in public. I have a feeling there’d be a fair amount of overlap.

That is the single worst iteration of Jackson I’ve ever seen. The only way it could be worse is if they added a “y.” Though I'm sure someone out there has already named their poor spawn Jaxzyn.

Ha, yes. I consider celebrity kids to be the exception, but for real-life peeps, my rule holds true pretty universally.

I always assume the opposite with place names. Generally, little Brooklyn or London or Memphis’s parents have never actually left the small town from which they hail.

Yep, Boden is what JCrew was in the 90—well-made, colorful classics with cute, interesting details. Love them!

Ha, yesterday I didn't get a chance to put on my makeup in the morning, and when I got to work, my very sweet, well-meaning employee said with a good deal of concern, "Are you tired? Are you not feeling well?" No, I just normally look like a three-day old corpse until I get my under eye concealer and some blush on.

At my last place of employment, we had an employee who was just a laughably bad pathological liar. In reviewing his extensive disciplinary history to issue him discipline on an unrelated matter, I came across my all-time favorite excuse. This particular employee was supposed to carry a radio and be available on the

I was approximately six months pregnant, and already huge and uncomfortable, with feet like pulsating loaves of bread. Now, pregnant or not, I'm a fan of Swedish meatballs, and so when a friend recommended the Alton Brown recipe, I decided to give it a try. I bought all the ingredients, patiently mixed up, formed,

Hahaha, a friend of mine is from Alaska, and she sent me a link to a news article about that story headlined, "No More Bear Meat in the Glory Hole."

Ah, gotcha. I'm usually better at picking up on sarcasm online. :)

I wonder if we were at the same one! I had the same thing happen at one of the Laos a few years back...maybe Lao Beijing? Can't recall. But it was bizarre and super entertaining!

Except she spelled "palate" incorrectly. There are two different words—palate is the one in your mouth.
