Well, I'm glad to see that others feel the same way.

Precisely. I'm guessing the majority of rich celebrities who put on an "aw shucks, I'm just regular folk" shtick in fact share a lot of her bourgeois tastes and consumption habits. There's so much more out there that's worthy of our hate. (LOL)

The Internet (and Jezebel) keeps telling me I should hate Gwyneth Paltrow, and while it's true that what I know about Paltrow could fit comfortably on the back of a postage stamp, I have yet to see some damning smoking gun that convinces me. I once saw a list of supposedly offensive quotes, and they were so innocuous

A.k.a., "things taken for granted in the U.S.A."

Don't you know you're not truly poor unless your only earthly possessions consist of: 1) the wooden barrel you wear in lieu of clothing, 2) the empty tin can you wear as a hat, 3) old leather shoes so full of holes that they cover no more than 3/4 of your feet, and 4) the corncob pipe you took off the frozen corpse of

Looking through aovma's other comments, it seems s/he is quite the rapist defender. Pretty much all rape is the fault of the victim in aovma's eyes.

This.

Jezebel is a rare site where I am eager to read the comments, and where the comments are often more insightful and well-written than the articles. Take the publicity stunt with offering a $10,000 reward for unretouched photos from Lena Dunham's Vogue shoot. The readers here would have none of it. There was not a

"No, I truly never tire of listening to you go on and on about yourself."

Thanks, Jaime! I found it with Google reverse image search.

Inquiring minds want to know. Who drew this wonderful cartoon?

I was (mostly) joking, but thank you anyway!

Oh, Kat. How could you? You cut me to the quick. You used an image from a pirated edition instead of my own authorized translation. This is the image you should have used:

Now that's pretty darned cute. And also captures the Diaz charm perfectly. And to my great shock, my wife says she has not seen it, so we promptly added it to our Hulu to-watch list. Thanks!

Moore may be insufferable, and some of his work is controversial, but I don't think anyone can plausibly deny that he's a progressive who thinks seriously and with nuance about issues like sexism, racism and homophobia. As for age, Moore is 60 to Miller's 57. Whether that's old or not is a subjective matter, I suppose.

Looked at through the lens of superhero comics alone, you may be right, but among general comics fans for whom superheroes are just one genre among many, I think my original assertion stands.

Humbly accepted.

Strange how people assume that bisexuals are insatiable sex freaks who are into threesomes and such. (Not to mention the "fence-sitting, trying to have it both ways" stereotype that gays sometimes still propagate.) I hope my joke about my wife and cameron Diaz didn't feed into that stereotype! It was joke! In the

Do you mean is Frank Miller the cartoonist also Frank Miller the anti-Occupy, Muslim-hating misogynist? Yes, they are famously one and the same. Miller's foaming-at-the-mouth comments about Occupy activists drew a strongly worded reaction from an equally famous comics creator of the same generation, Alan Moore.
