When I think back on AIM, I realize just how incredibly bizarre the whole concept was. I mean, the idea of being able to set alarms for when people signed on or off. Repeatedly signing on and off to hopefully elicit the attention of a crush. Picking just the right away message to hint at feelings but not.

Lorde does not seem to be enjoying her fame, wealth, youth or beauty, poor thing.

I'm not taking that one for the team. He seems kinda creepy and desperate in a very creepy way (which is saying something). Oh well, he's in LA. 20,000 wanna be models/actresses/baristas move there every three months, he has a never-ending supply of young women if that's what he's into I would imagine.

If someone fucks James Franco, do you think he'll stop doing these weird pseudo-sexual Instagram things?

LiveJournal 4ever, man. I still hang out there cos my parents don't. (And people still post! It's nuts!)

(Also, I am 34 years old and afraid of my parents seeing what I write on Facebook. Also, I am 34 years old and still hang out on LJ.)

Congrats! Cant say enough how cool that story was. Tupac... come on, no one can top that!

I was like you, I was in grad school before Facebook was really a thing, and I didn't myspace.

So because I am a fucking geek, I have already discussed the pros and cons of this new typographical abomination at length. This is what I will say about it, it is far more 'appropriate yet fun' for schools and kid related shit than Comic Sans was. So I can get behind it for that reason, but goddamit don't you dare…

All the guys (including me) I know are sporting this timeless look. Mainly because we're old, but it is what it is.

A quick search tells me this author grew up in India. In my experience, that really changes how someone will view this issue.

For me this haircut seems to be a form of douche bag alarm...

I call it the "Roger Klotz."

I'm Native American and as long as the items being worn are reproductions rather than culturally relevant artifacts, I'm pretty okay with people wearing them.

I'm with you - I don't know where the line is. Is it inappropriate if a white person wears a sari? What if a black person wears tartan plaid - traditionally Scottish? Or if a non-American wears jeans? A non-Christian wearing a cross? A Christian wearing a cross on its side? When I wear eyeliner, am I appropriating…

The world's most privileged 20-somethings dressing in the trappings of anti-consumerist hippie culture and wearing symbols representing wisdom and spiritual development. SO MUCH IRONY.

Isha, as an Indian-American woman, I remember my mother insisting I wear a bindi "for decoration" with my lengha or salwaar kameez for some Hindu function, temple, party, or what have you. Both my parents are well educated, but even they didn't think much about the cultural significance of the bindi, nor would they…

I can't stand the Coachella faux-hemian crowd. It's not just that they're appropriating meaningful cultural symbols like the bindi, but the way that they treat these symbols as disposable, like a costume they can cast aside once the weekend is over.

Say my sister-in-law, who is white, buys a jade charm. Is it wrong for her to wear it because she's NOT Chinese or Vietnamese (I'm sure I'm missing other cultures, but those are the two I know who consider jade as lucky. I actually don't fully understand the significance of jade other than the luck factor - at least…
