French fries? So passe. We call them fried potatoes in the biz.

Aside from the mentioned reasons (which I couldn't agree with more), this is a terrible name because of what we can only assume it must taste like.
Oh this is fun! What would other gawker sites waste $10,000 on for things we already know?
And also this is like the third "no no really we invited a literal metric ton of women but they were all totally busy!" story this week alone. I'm over it! Name some names or shut the fuck up. "We tried" is the new "I have black friends."
Actually, when read in context of the article, her comment that she "doesn't understand" how a woman could be out alone at night becomes, to me, perhaps the most heartbreaking part. She seems to literally mean that she does not understand how that happens, as in, it's a completely foreign concept to her that a woman…
This really reinforces the idea that the best way to help any community is to ensure women are fully educated and able to support themselves. Like so many other women around the world, this woman's entire life depends on her husband. When you're so economically fragile, I can see why you're inclined to believe and…
Much better parody.
How are people reading this as charm? The "porn for women" he's talking about is the feminist produced/directed shit that gets brought up in comments on this site every time someone mentions that the majority of porn is incredibly misogynist. No, no, you're just not looking in the right place! There's good stuff…
Only sociopaths threaten someone's life and say it's a joke like that.
Unfortunately, in a really closed dysfunctional home, the siblings follow the same role the abuser has set forth and do not in fact acknowledge that any abuse exists. I speak from experience—it's pretty awful having an entire family side against you, especially when the majority are themselves victims or…
To shed a little light on the insane logic of an abuser, my ex confessed to the cops everything he did to me the night he was arrested (or rather everything he did that night such as choke me, throw me to the ground and try to break my arm). He admitted to the cops that he "took it too far". But after that, he began…
If I could strike one phrase from the English language, it would be, "Lighten up."
That doesn't make you crazy, or fucked up, that is a coping mechanism. And many, many people develop it. You want to prove that it has something to do with love, and that it isn't completely about control. I'm always been confident, I'm 26, have a graduate degree and volunteer at a transition shelter. But I still…
It is so classic. I'm going through this all over again with a friend of mine and her husband. We finally had a bit of a breakthrough last week when she said "I'm not crazy" and believed it. It is amazing what an abuser can do their victim, and it doesn't matter if you are: pretty, not pretty, fit, not fit, rich,…
That's how crazy people win. YOU sound so crazy talking about the crazy stuff that THEY DID. All they have to do is sit there wide eyed. Makes it hard to come forward.
it makes you feel crazy. especially when they seem so normal now but you remember the bad times and wonder if that will pop up again. they never remember and make you feel stupid for trying to talk about it
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.
Basically they sound like they don't want to get sued. I mean, I feel for the writer, given what happened but you get a really motivated person and something that hasn't—and probably can't really be proven in a court of law (not because it lacks veracity but rather there probably isn't enough current evidence) and you…
To me, it was the being uninvited *after* the fact that makes this messed up. That's just straight up tacky.
On last night's Big Brother, Howard, one of the show's two African-American castmates, was voted out of the house.…
