Yeah (and my grandfather probably just felt an unexplained burst of rage), but I'm on the rich, aristocratic, owners' side here. It's one thing to have trained animals, who have professional handlers, on set, it's another to have people just bring their pets to work. People live in that house. I know I wouldn't want…

Well, after reading about the actors' dogs chewing up rugs and tracking mud everywhere, I can't say I blame her. It's still her house, after all, and it's incredibly rude to assume your dog is welcome at another person's home.

I'm about to be super unpopular (not that anyone here recognizes the forever lurker who only last week started commenting but still):

French Women Have No Workplace Sexual Harassment Protections.

This mystical creature known as "the French woman" is rarely spotted even in France because it's a fucking marketing archetype like Jesus Christ what is wrong with people.

This may have changed, but when I was in France many years ago I noticed that many of the beauty mags had articles about American women's beauty habits. For real, they were all about getting that fabulous, clean and fresh American girl look. Apparently it works both ways, making American women feel inferior to French…

Hmm. Polygamy? Monogamy? I prefer team just Mono, as in, just me, no partners at all. The thought of having another person around all the time is irritating, I think I'd just have an introvert meltdown if there were that many personal demands on my time and space that I need a calendar to fit them in.

Yeesh.

It is amazing... they never, ever, EVER remember what they've done. What it must be like to live with such a wonderful selective memory.

Remember how Upton Sinclair wrote "The Jungle" to call attention to awful working conditions, but everyone just freaked out about how dirty the food was? We haven't gotten very far, have we?

I'd like to say something about how shabbily farm workers are treated and how exploitative the whole business is, and how it would be nice if this initiative took the working conditions into account and advocated for improvement, but I'm not feeling very articulate.

God dammit, Lindsay. We've watched with glee as you crashed and burned, all while saying "but we were all rooting for you!", made fun of the way drugs ruined your career, appearance, overall appeal, and life, took any opportunity to write gossip articles about you... The least you could do is tell us how many times…

I don't know if she invited us into her rehab; it was more like we're gatecrashers who stormed her party years ago to watch her demise and won't leave. At this point, she's trying basically to clean her house up the morning and just trying to feed us a little bit of breakfast in the hopes that maybe we'll stop…

Not defending her, but given her alcoholism, maybe a better statement would have been "I only remember doing it 10-15 times"

It really is strange, because like you said, it happens to almost half the population. And it's not even like it's once every other year. When something's happening every month, about a quarter of the time, (give or take,) the shock value has to wear off.

I knew someone who worked on Katie Couric's show and he described her as a total mean girl. Like if someone who is considered her rival was not doing, she would make snarky comments about it.

maybe Lady Gaga could explain how she fell in with Perez in the first place? Dude is awful.

On a similar note, I once found (and purchased) one of those "puberty/sex books for tweens from cool mom" at a thrift store. I picked it up out of curiosity and as I flipped through it, realized that the giver (mom, I assume) had made notes throughout the entire book.... She double underlined the "showering and…

This article brought a hilarious memory from my Junior High days. My "talk" about sex and puberty involved a stack of books from the local library, meticulously selected by my mom. She left them in the kitchen one day so I'd see them when I got home from school but while she was still at work. There was a note on top…

There's actually more cross-over than you'd think. The same young, fashionable professional women who might've saved for a couple months to buy that Foley & Corinna dress can now snag it at Forever 21 instead and have nobody be the wiser. If you look at fashion blogs, most people mix high-end "classic" designer pieces…
