Ah Lindy, you continue to rock my world.

See, Jason Russell appeared to have some sort of psychotic break, which is beyond his control, so I feel badly about that whole situation. I understand that other people feel like he had it coming or whatever, but I just disagree.

Yes, I agree, if I had $30,000, I would WAY rather spend it on a romantic amazing round the world trip with my partner than a wedding! We've talked about eloping simply and then just taking an amazing vacation somewhere relatively affordable, like Ecuador. Thanks for the tips!

Okay, now you are just *straight up* trolling. And I'm gonna stop feeding you.

I don't see how spending a ton of money on a wedding just for your and your partner is any more or less narcissistic on spending money on a huge party wedding for you, your partner and 300 of your closest friends. The message is still the same: "LOOK AT US!"

I don't think I was "concern-trolling," (is that even a thing now? How come every time anyone on Jezebel expresses an opinion about anything it is considered trolling? Isn't that what we are all here to do?). I was expressing an opinion and then MAKING FUN OF MYSELF and admitting that I wasn't sure that my opinion…

Er, being extremely hyperbolic to make a joke. Er, I don't think you get to determine whether or not I should breed based on a Jezebel comment. And "educate yourself first, as well"? How condescending can you get? Yikes is right.

Yep, syringes in Central Park sandbox, same era. Haha. And lots of dead rats in those little play tunnels they had. Are you still in NYC? I moved west. Where'd you go to school/grow up/all those other questions I must ask other NYC natives when I find them?

Yeah, I was being hyperbolic to demonstrate the fact that I am probably not a good judge of what is or is not appropriate for a kid, because I would be so nervous about their well being. However, I still contend that something inappropriate is going on with the filmer!

I dunno, I have a problem with this. I mean, I could argue that marriage is an antiquated and oppressive institution, but that doesn't mean that I don't think all people have the right to have it. Hah, and I know that marriage is different from a pageant (or is it?!??!) but still. We should still care about her right…

Yes!!! Well put! <—-Dammit, that was supposed to be a response to sacapunta27. But I am tired and can't work the internet.

I am talking about this because a woman was discriminated against for a bullshit reason. I feel like you are saying that we shouldn't care about this because her getting into a pageant doesn't further the trans community. And I just don't think that should be our only concern here. Not everything she does has to be…

I guess I wouldn't know, as I spend zero time around kids, so I will take your word for it. But I still find the level of glee that the filmer is at to be a little high.

Fair enough. Cohen probably is more common than Shapiro.

Oh, the bitter irony. SATC (although I enjoyed it guiltily) created a dynamic that choked the last bit of grit out of NYC. Now they're going to go back and Cosmo-fy our beautiful, frightening, filthy past. Is nothing sacred? There better be a lot of public urination, rat dodging, and bizarre happenings or I am going…

Yeah, as someone who grew up in the 80s in NYC, I don't see how you can have a show set in that place and time without including some really disturbing encounters.

I once famously fell asleep with a forkful of chocolate cake on the way to my mouth. Which means I was REALLY tired. Nothing comes between me and my cake.

Who said anything about the trans community? Just because she is a trans woman who wants to compete in a pageant, does that mean her only goal and focus needs to be bettering the lives of all trans folk? Why can't she just do something she wants to do for herself because she....wants to do it!?!?

I think the song is crap, buuuut I have to say that I think a 53 year old woman looking hot, singing about sex and rolling around with hot naked men is still prettttty radical. In both senses of the word. And possibly "scandalous" by society's standards.

No Jewy names on the East Coast? As 1 of 238972836286 Shapiros, I call bs. Or am I just missing them?
