So, so seconded. For example, I got a lovely loose-ish summer jumper(sweater) with some see through panels a few years back which is super sexy without being too dressy or too cleavage-y (and blessedly free of cupcake prints, @Diosabella...)

I just came here to say: this is so interesting. Thanks for writing it! (And reading a Chem textbook to do so.)

All of my coupled friends split things via overall salary (/money coming in).

I think that's a pretty great observation on it. So much of the early part of that book has stayed with me- the ex talking about her body as comfort; etc. that was so effective. Even the scene in the bathroom with the new girlfriend. But it's like she rushed the ending or that in her attempt to craft a narrative for…

At least her CV is less likely to be discriminated against when she grows up...

There are whole sites that rely on people watching portrayals of rape. That is also a crime, but the porn made is not illegal. The "it portrays a crime" doesn't hold water.

So let me guess: it ends with the dude coming on her face?

I still don't really like him. But this was some A+ awesomeness.

And it should. It displayed embarrassingly poor journalistic judgement.

So... {shatner pause} conflicted... {shatner pause} so hate Karl Stefanovic... yet {shatner pause} so love this experiment... GARRGH, brain explosion.

And the Empire State building is bathed in blood? Fun times, Republicans!

1. Did it ever purport to be impartial?

How long did you stay living in that room?!

Isn't the old-wives-tale that if you tell someone your premonition of a person's death, it won't come true? Or was that just something my mother told me?

I'm not being douchey. At least in my day, Catholics have always been behind evolution. 13 years of Catholic school taught me that; they also taught me about Pope John Paul's speech.

You literally said you hated her. So "that's $100K thay can't do something else with that has more value" is not all you're saying.

It's absolutely the right of the person paying for the party to tell you what to wear to their own party. If you don't like it, it's your problem. Just don't go.

I was with you right up until the end. It is extremely rude to show up to a formal party the hosts have spent 40K putting together in one's hiking clothes. If they lost their luggage or a bear attacked their formalwear on the way in? OK. Otherwise? Rude. It effectively says "fuck you, I don't conform to your rules!…

Um, yes, Pope John Paul II was. He was the one who "acquitted" Galileo (re: heresy) and was all 'evolution is a proven fact.' (not a direct quote)

Maybe you should study harder then. Catholic Popes have been saying this stuff for many, many years. (XR Pope John Paul II)
