I moved from NYC to LA in 2014. The night before I moved, I was out for a farewell dinner with my girlfriends and we were admittedly doing the rude walking-5-abreast-on-the-sidewalk thing in Chelsea and nearly clotheslined Chris Noth who, rightfully, looked at us like we were idiots. On my 1st full day in LA, I went…

My friend used to be an EMT for an ambulance service contracted to various venues in NYC to be on standby in case of emergencies, so she was always backstage. She said that Meatloaf was an ENORMOUS drama queen and they were told to be standing by with oxygen at all times because he would get so worked up that he would…

I just stifled a laugh so hard I choked.

SERGIO!

Oh, FFS. You'd think I'd know better than to read the comments on a USA Today article. When will I learn?!?

I have it on good authority (music biz friend who has seen her passport) that she’s older than the “official” sources state. Said friend didn’t say how much older, and I didn’t care enough to ask.

Oh god. Mine was Body Shop’s White Musk. I was apparently unfamiliar with the phrase “less is more.”

Thank you for this. My mom’s dad died when she and her siblings were kids, and Gramma never took them to his grave. They went to the funeral mass, but only Gramma and the “grownups” went to the graveside service. She told them “He’s not there. That’s just a body that didn’t work anymore.” When Gramma was dying a…

I think it came from the NYT article by David Carr on Iron Man:

Came here to say the same thing. Thanks for giving an underrated but highly influential icon a shout-out!

My mother-in-law likes to say “He who farts in church sits in own pew.”

Was just reading an article about this type of situation in a New Yorker article— as Sportsicle mentions below, the first generation refugees are grateful and want to be in the countries where they end up. But most end up in poverty, and European ghettos (like the Parisian Banlieus) tend to have a lot of problems with…

He is a singularly vile man. Yes, the sexual abuse portion is horrific anp possibly worth a tiny bit of pity, but it’s no surprise that it ended up this way. He’s a vulgar, abusive liar and a vicious egomaniac. In his life, he surrounded himself with pandering sycophants who are only after his money, and they’re all…

Am I the only one who is both infuriated and not the least bit surprised that it's a couple of dudes manning the forced birth booth?

Asphyxiation can also mean loss of oxygen due to c02 or other gas poisoning (running car in closed garage, helium, bag over head, etc). A combo of the last two was how my cousin chose to go 3 Years ago. Depression is a horrible, insidious thing.

Speaking as Person B in this scenario: THANK YOU. I desperately want to WANT to go back to the gym again. :(

The Shorter the Pony, The Closer to Hell.

So, what, she should have just laid down and taken it?

I promise you, there is absolutely NO WOMAN ALIVE that can make the polyester perma-press slacks and steel-toed orthopedic boots of a paramedic look sexy.
