She is awful, but that scene in Dirty Love in which her character gets her period at the grocery store, and is so broke, all she can afford is mattress maxi pads... is fucking funny. The whole movie, overall, is pretty bad but that one scene really got me.

I'm pretty sure I'm the only person posting who's actually worked with Jenny McCarthy. I found her to be delightful, funny, hard-working and fun to be around. I get why people are virulently opposed to her vaccination stance — I certainly am. It's fine to critique her for that. But to criticize her for trying and

For people who have chronic and, in your mind "preventable", issues like obesity, laziness, shyness, lack of social skills, addiction, low social standing, shame is one of the worst things you can make them feel. If your goal is to both change the "preventable" behaviors in people and to sanction your goal socially,

Do other chronically ill people get constant, unsolicited Fitness/Health Nazi advice? If I did more yoga/took these vitamins/drank smoothies/etc. my nerve disorder would disappear, I wouldn't need any medicine for my mental illness and fuck, my thyroid might regulate itself.

I was a teacher before I was a stay at home mom. I won't compare what I do to working, though for my chosen career the skill sets for both are nearly identical. I do however thing being in a classroom of 30+ 12 and 13 year olds is far easier than staying home with 2 kids for several reasons.

What I think is the weirder (larger) story here, is the whole practice of photographing yourself in order to get "likes" - validation, as the story says. I didn't have the unfortunate experience of going through adolescence in an environment where a picture of me was subject to judgment from limitless masses of people.

As an Aussie, there is some context missing here. The author, Olympia, is well known in Australia. Ashe is the daughter of a famous art critic and a few years ago she was at the center of a national controversy over nude art work she had posed in as a child which was suddenly branded pornographic along with artist

I'm only a step-mom (a working one at that), and I second the hell out of this.

Someone from work played that clip for me because of men work all day while their wives stay home (mat leave 1 year) and wah wah wah. My response "Ya, I'm going to say raising a kid is about 20x harder than my job, where I interact with (mainly) reasonable adults, am shown respect, and actually get to go home and

Wellllllllll, comparing parenting and coal mining is kind of a dick move, in my not-at-all-humble opinion. It's not apples and oranges - it's apples and screwdrivers. I'm sure coal mining is pretty fucking goddamned hard to do. But you know, you get to go home at the end of the day, take a shower, and do something

I would never try to judge how difficult or easy someone else's job is unless I had experience doing that exact job. So in the same vein, I don't want to hear how easy it is being a Mom from someone who's never fucking done it. Childless folks? Feel free to share your opinions on motherhood with me. But your

Okay, the rocket scientist comment made me laugh hysterically (I'm not a rocket scientist, but I know a few).

THE HAIRY BIRD I DIE! First DVD I stole when I worked at Blockbuster. Never really had to "come out" with that visible in my collection.

They're both just tactile people! Like people who sell carpet for a living! Or those who read Braille!

If you think the Texas law is f*cked up wait till you hear what's happening in the far-away land of Chile. We are one of the few countries where abortion is illegal. IN ALL CASES. Now there's an 11 year-old girl who was raped by her stepfather and is pregnant and we have morronic right-wing politicians saying sh*t

I still insult people with this classic. That movie is near the top of my favorites list.

saw this on facebook, love it

This whole thing is a Monty Python skit waiting to be written.

I'm a giver.

NO! You fool Kate! You said his name! There's no way of knowing how he'll appear now that you've invoked him!
