I thought the article presented a nuanced, balanced view of the positives and negatives of this particular young woman's experiences. You need to release the grip on your pearls.

There certainly have been famous women with prominent noses. Sure, the Sarah Jessica Parkers and Barbara Streisands of the world tend to be more scrutinized for their unconventional attractiveness, or at least it's always noticed (I never even realized there was anything "weird" about Tom Cruise's nose until this

He'd have to be killing dogs by pitting them against underage sex workers specifically to raise money for shutting down Planned Parenthood to get me to turn against him.

She's actually 48, but she does indeed look amazing for her age. A friend of mine actually just took off his ring for the first time yesterday and wondered how long it would take to get back to normal.

It's basically just slow-cooked barbequed meat. I think on most menus it just appears as "shredded beef."

I have to hope that maybe there were other problems in the report that the LW is glossing over, or maybe consistent problems with her that made the management on the look-out for a reason to fire her. I am usually skeptical when someone swears they were fired for a single completely ridiculous infraction.

Did you actually bring something else, or just leave the "beer" out of the description and claim you adjusted the recipe?

In many European countries, the standard way to make a couple's bed is to have two separate duvet covers, split down the middle, like so:

Well, there's a big push in some places to get rid of prison sentences for drug possession crimes, which don't hurt anyone else. I'm sure there are other types of crimes on the same level if I thought about it, but drug-related offenses is one of the top reasons we lock people up.

Most these arguments seem like they would apply to both genders. We should stop locking up people who pose no threat to society, regardless of their gender.

I need to learn your ways. I feel a compulsion to correct at least one person every time this happens. Which is so, so often.

That's pretty much the joke of the article, isn't it? That only the bride imagines that people will be crushed at missing out on her super-special magical night?

I think my employer has a responsibility to protect my safety while I am at my work space or carrying out work-related activities. I do not think they have any responsibility to protect me when I'm not at work. Similarly, a college should have a responsibility to their student's safety during classes or

I'd like to see a source for your claim that colleges would beef up action to respond to thefts in the dorm rooms. When I lived in a dorm room, we were advised to lock up any valuables, especially locks to secure our laptops to our desk, and we were also advised to buy renters' insurance on our valuables. It was

Those are all reasonable points.

I'm sure I'll get hate for this, but I don't believe it should be a college's responsibility to protect their students at all times in every aspect of their lives. There is a ridiculous amount of mission creep in modern universities, in which a college is expected to service every aspect of a student's life

Congratulations for not actually reading the letter.

That detail actually makes me wonder if Madeleine initially prepared the story to be more balanced, but then the headline was changed at the last minute.

Yup. I for one am shocked that Jezebel's reporting could ever be misleading or just plain wrong.

I agree it was shoddy reporting. It makes it seem like she wanted to write an article about how female pop stars have it much worse than male ones, but since the data didn't actually support that, she just left out the male data altogether and hoped we would make the assumption she wanted.
