If women don't like catcalling why don't they just stand up for themselves?

When you place an order the companies advise that some chicks will inevitably die in the mail. Sounds super humane.

Aw, it's sad when Colbert shows he isn't actually better than the people he satirizes.

In addition to Florida, Alaska and Washington DC had marijuana on the ballot.

Exactly! In my family there was always so much emphasis on tradition and everything being perfect that Christmas day was just awkward and no fun. The really fun day was Christmas Eve where we would eat Mexican food, play board games and actually have some god damn fun.

I hate Christmas, but love Christmas Eve, so I'm super grinch-y until about the 22nd and then go all out menu planning, baking, playing non-stop Christmas music, movies, and television specials, and decorating. Then on December 25th everyone wonders what the hell happened because I'm super grumpy and have absolutely…

I would go absolutely bonkers if I was forced to stay in my home more than two days. One day and I would start getting antsy. Every time I get sick it's so mind numbingly boring to just stay home and do nothing.

Agreed, sometimes my cat just is NOT in the mood. I'll try to cuddle her and then she gives me a look, storms off, and yells "you don't understand my life!"

By saying grandmother's exist to huge their grandchildren you are expressly implying that grandchildren exist for their grandmothers. That's not true. People and children exist for their own reasons, they are not large stuffed animals.

"And maybe she actually did think twice before heading out to Cleveland. Who knows. But even if the thought crossed her mind, culturally we assign so much importance to the business of ~*Your Special Day*~ that to put off a weekend of wedding planning is unfathomable."

Exactly. You can readily find average salary information for a variety of fields in the fashion industry at any fashion design school. It's usually in the school brochure. They regularly gather the information from their recruiters, and these numbers are on par with what I've seen/experienced.

Fascinating! I am a pawn in the system!

I didn't see any ipads or any rhyme to their reason (a guy just looked at my boarding pass and pointed me to that line), but you're right in that it was probably just totally random. I must have been clutching my TSA rosaries very tight that morning.

I've been seriously confused because the last two times I've flown I've been sent to some sort of precheck line and been told to walk through a metal detector (not a scanner) without removing my shoes, or taking liquids out of my bag. Almost everyone else in the line looked about as confused as me.

"I don't know if we actually do overlook that in our personal lives, though. I may be wrong, but I think lots of people know that the photos we choose to put on social media aren't an accident. Even if we're having a terrible time on vacation, we might put up a fun status and others will like it, though half the time…

You wouldn't call an entire fashion house/label couture because they all have multiple lines at once. For example, Chanel has a few different lines: haute couture, ready to wear, holiday, and makeup and accessories. So while Chanel does couture, it's a small portion of their business and I think it's disingenuous to…

I see! Yup, a designer can do both haute couture and pret-a-porter lines. At fashion week haute couture shows are presented together and ready to wear is presented together, so there's not much confusion there...but you're tight in that there's definitely some confusion by the average shopper about what constitutes as…

The denier of a fabric does not necessarily denote quality. A sheer silk top is going to be higher quality than a sheer polyester top.

Gah, sorry, but this is a huge pet-peeve of mine: your friend did not work for a haute couture designer. Haute couture is a term that only applies to unique garments that are handmade from start to finish and require exquisite hand detailing. It is a very exclusive, legally protected term that only applies a few dozen…

"Here's a thought: maybe dedicate some more attention to the stuff you sell before it lands on your website for sale all over the world."
