Ah, thank you! That makes sense.

OK, this is what I don't entirely understand. They say they'd never book her, but they booked her two years ago? But then didn't use the pictures? But then they're using them now? Is that the chain of events?

1st: I don't know who you think you are commenting to, but I didn't say there is no such thing as a false accusation

Given what someone else has said about how it was "Black Bike Week", that seems likely.

I can definitely see him in that role. I just wish he'd had better material for the last couple of seasons. Of course, by then the whole show felt like it was being written by a group of people who didn't talk to each other, and who had never watched the show, but had been given like, a one paragraph synopsis of its…

Leighton Meester is a really wonderful dramatic actress too, I think. Her face does so many great things.

I used to feel it was mean-spirited when people would get in the comments just to talk trash about Doug Barry, but he really is a sloppy sloppy writer, who is imprecise in his language to the point of just being wrong. The sentence you quote is a prime example.

That is disheartening, indeed. I'm going to need to check it out eventually though. But maybe I'll wait a little longer. . .

Congrats on your BA :-)

That is the exact problem I have. And you have proposed a good solution, I think. I'm also not a seamstress, but it seems like a good idea.

I mostly agree? I would say I had my Vonnegut phase, and I haven't been in it for a long time, but I still love him in a sort of literary historian way. I think that jives with what you're saying.

This is exactly what I was coming here to say. I'm a huge fan too. I've been saving The Pale King because it's the last thing of his I'll get to read.

Right there with you, Burt. Right there.

I like Julie Klausner's description best: Patti Stanger is made of snakes.

Yeah, that's crazy. I would occasionally bring my baby to a pub (not a bar, but a pub), but I didn't do it like an asshole would. We never did it at night, more like mid to late afternoon, early evening tops. My husband and I would take shifts so that one person could relax while the other one was more on duty, and I…

This is so exactly it. Fucking exactly. <3

I would say that men are victims of this too. There are probably plenty of older men who were fine with aging out of frequent sex, but because society tells them that wanting sex constantly is what is expected they associate their worth with their ability to get erections, Viagra comes along.

There are many reasons why the person filing might not be the person who initiated the divorce necessarily. If it's a mutual decision, well, someone has to do it, and as you mentioned, one person might leave, and another one might file.

You're making me want to sing commercials for my doctor, who suggested the Paraguard first thing.

OK, now I'm going to giggle for a while.
