I rode the T into Boston almost every day after school starting at 12. Guess my parents should be arrested. She’s clearly a street smart kid who handled the situation well. It’s the Hover Parents’s kids that get kidnapped, not the ones whose parents trusted them.

One of my best friends got a breast reduction a few years back. She is a lot happier now because of it. Since I’m her friend and not an ass hole I was happy for her. She was really uncomfortable all the time, had really bad headaches and she had to order custom bras that were REALLY expensive. I will never understand…

As near as I can tell, it’s mostly because he hasn’t made a popular movie in awhile and he’s an overweight, middle-aged pop culture geek, so he clearly needs to cut his hair and get a real job (‘cause none of the, like, 5 or 6 projects his attached to this year count, I guess).

Huh? The women in his films have all the power, minus that one scene in clerks. WTF have you been watching?

Yeah, but he can spend his time and money anyway he wants. It would be different if he still lives with his parents and all he does is smoke weed while reading comic books. He’s employed and obviously raising his kid to be smart enough to question people. He’s also the only reason Jay is still alive.

Yeah I agree. I don’t know why we have to hate on his choice of name for her when she clearly likes her name and his trying to make her feel better with a cake. She wasn’t hurt, she was scared but she will be fine. I see nothing wrong with that cake.

When did Kevin Smith’s kid stop being a toddler? Stupid passage of time that’s dragging me along with it! That’s enough of me making a truly scary situation for anybody about me.

I’m not a huge fan of Kevin Smith’s movies but... someone want to explain to me why this story shows him to be an asshole? I see these comments acting like Smith did something wrong here when I think his response was funny and on the right side of things. So, yeah— someone want to explain to me how this story somehow…

Two men tried to lure her into their car, under false pretenses. If you can read that and come away thinking Kevin Smith is the sad excuse for a man, you must just really hate Kevin Smith, amirite?

And come on, he made Dogma. And God was played by Alanis!

Her story goes on past that. She dumped him and has a lovely relationship with Poison Ivy.

which is a terrible way to live when you are in your 40s

Seconded!

I used to volunteer on a rape-crisis hotline in college. “I want you to know why I’m doing this” or some version of that was said to countless of the survivors who would call in and talk to me. It’s insidious, and it creeps into the survivor’s head. It also explains how real rape culture is; those assholes found it so…

Meh. I think it can be reclaimed. Kinda liked the Pohler and Fey riff “bitches get shit done.”

my family is from patna, and i agree, it’s a terrifying place for women. my parents moved us (my sister and i) to the states because of the large amount of religious and sectarian violence that was happening there in the early 90's. that violence is still happening, but it seems to be combined with a steady increase…

It’s bad. Really bad.

I don’t think we forgot her at all. I think the media gleefully went out of its way to FINALLY tear down the last relevant Jackson. I’d have to find it, but the head honky in charge finally admitted 10 years later that the outrage was completely manufactured and he didn’t give even 1/128th of a mountain-dwelling fuck.…

Oh, she is fabulous! Always has been. Nasty is still my personal anthem. The whole Control album was ages ahead of its time. She is one of my favorite pop “misandrists” for that album. And her uplifting pop like Escapade and Love Will Never Do and the whole Rhythm Nation album... ALL of her stuff, really. When I think…

Oh the shade of it all. I would love an old school shade court on our old school pop starts. So much fun.

Yeah, she’s always been awesome, even when she was just MJs cute little sister.
