Sometimes they are so dumb! Like when they found Ali's diary and Aria stole just a couple pages instead of the whole thing. WTF? I do love this show so much though.

I think that there are a lot of people who romanticize those relationship, and the network definitely works with that because it's in their interest to do so, but I think that that isn't really what the show is doing. If anything, I think it is trying to explore the way society looks at teenage girls. I think with…

She was an extra on My So Called Life. She's been playing a teen for 20 years.

Spencer is the greatest, and I said from day 1 that one day she was going to lose it and she would lose it as magnificently and thoroughly as she does everything else. God, I love her.

But almost all their parents have been suspects at some point! Seriously though, they need to get the moms (and Emily's awesome dad) on it. I'm on the fence about Spencer's mom. She can get things done but Spencer's dad and sister are still suspects. Really, they mostly just need to tell Aria's mom.

Wait, but wasn't there a whole storyline about how Alison/Vivian was doing just that and then the liars met up with the guy from the phone company and then. . . maybe that was when they went to that creepy house that turned out to be a lawfirm where Melissa used to work, or something like that? So many things have…

Damn. You beat me to it.

No, because in the universe of the show, where all the adult men are creepy sex predators (well, except Emily's dad. Please don't make Emily's dad be awful too, I love him!) he almost qualifies as a good guy. Still ludicrous as a plot point, though I think the idea is that no one knows they were dating while he was…

I don't think you are really "supposed" to sympathise with Fitz/Aria. I know a lot of people do, but it always seemed part of the larger point of the show, which I think has to do with the relationship of society to teenage girls. Every adult man on that show (except, so far, Emily's dad) is at the very least kind of…

It was. The n-word at that time in England referred to Indians, as in people from India.

I didn't see the movie, but when I was a theater nerd in my teens LOVED the show/soundtrack. Most people who I know who loved the show told me not to bother with the movie.

When I was in middle school, my grandfather said to me that to do well with men, a girl needs a pretty face and a great body. He then said that I had one of them and the other would probably be there later. To this day, 20 odd years later, I still wonder whether it was my face or my body that was deemed acceptable.

I was about to say much the same thing. That one line "We are so sorry that we acted out of fear and uncertainty." made me believe that they really meant it.

Um, if you get an abortion early enough, it's not that fucking big, lady.

Slowly but surely, Texas is getting pushed a little more left. The government, however, is the result of some of the most egregious gerrymandering you have ever seen, which makes it hard. There is no longer a GOP supermajority at the state level though, and we keep pushing.

Fellow Texan liberal here. I hear ya'. We're slowly but surely pushing that line.

There were a few bits in that letter that I can't fully endorse, but overall? Not bad, actually. Funny, literate, tongue-in-cheek, self-aware. I kind of want to go to this party.

I read something similar, but it was more that we evolved to TELL dads "oh! he/she looks just like you!" regardless of how the child actually looks.

I don't know you, but right now I'm sending all the love I have in my heart straight to you. I'm so sorry. Thank you for sharing your story.

My son had a minor surgery when he was about 3, and they gave him some codeine syrup afterwards. He acted totally drunk, and it was kind of funny, but no, you would not want to deal with that, in general.
