Forget tweezing. Let's do threading.

I just want to strap whomever came up with this BS campaign to a gurney and pluck every single hair of theirs, individually, with tweezers. One by one. Laughing manic and gleefully.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, nononononono.

You know what is also horrible? The smell of Veet. GAG-O-RAMA

When Roman Polanski won the Oscar for 'the pianist' the entire audience at the Kodak theatre have him a standing ovation.

That right there is why I get into huge, friend-losing fights over Mad Men. I just hate it, and I can't watch ten seconds of it without thinking, "This show is nostalgically looking back to a time when it was okay to beat the shit out of your wife or your gay brother, or for the hell of it, that annoying kid down the

People who romanticizing the 50's and 60's are the worst. I can understand praising those time periods if you're a straight, Christian white able-bodied male, but if you're anything outside of that, you need to A) love yourself and B) educate yourself, most importantly.

See, "Abortion does not compute with my philosophy" would be just fine as long she understood that her personal philosophy has fuck all to do with whether or not a medical procedure should be legal, but I'm guessing that's not the case. I mean, hell, vaginoplasty and Botox don't "compute with my philosophy," but I'm

Actually, the copy is a fascinating glimpse into the life of the 1%. I love the things they take for granted in the fluffy articles. "As the child of a famous actress and a world-renowned fashion photographer, I always dreaded our summer trips to the south of France, where our third villa was aired out from May

The Economist recently did an article about the militarization of American police. SWAT teams are everywhere, keeping the Keene NH Pumpkin Festival from getting too rowdy, for example. Let's add drunk students to that list of crucial moments where SWAT must be deployed lest the public peace never be the same again. Oh

Because when white people do it it's just young people "having fun and letting loose". 100 out of the 15,000 were arrested, most will probably get away without a criminal charge. 15,000 black people started a riot in the inner city (would be hard to blame them too) and they would have sent in the army and gunned half

Sadly, there are a ton of us (meaning black people) giving a sigh of relief that" for once", it wasn't a big group of us out of control at an HBCU or gathering. I remember being in college during the first few out out of control nights at UMCP and thinking about how people chalked their partying up to "kids will be

Why do we tolerate thuggish White culture?

It's the smile that really makes it. It's a smile that says, "I'm a white guy, and I'm gettin' away with this. And this. And that other thing. And something else. AMURKA! IT'S THE GREATEST!"

Not to be too stereotypical a Jez commenter, but he's being charged with strangling his girlfriend when she tried stop him

Holy hell, is that his mugshot? I am super anti-violence and would never do it, but I really want to slap the smile off of his dumb face.

Yeah, when I heard that it was hard not to give an eye-roll, followed by an, "Oh, grandma..." Erm, the codes of war do not apply hardly anywhere for journalists. It isn't just the Middle East where this has been a problem. Think of how many journalists have been murdered in Latin America alone.

Doesn't going through the effort of taking a selfie of you "laughing at the haters" sort of negate the whole purpose of the message? "Here's a picture of me, cleverly made up, at a flattering angle, being uncaring of what the haters think!" Well, I for one, am convinced.

Keep up with the sarcasm. Until it happens to you. If you haven't been in the submissive and powerless position of having to ask for permission to leave to attend your mom's funeral, then get a 24 hour pass, you might want to try either a nice dose of "I'm trying to get a handle on this and understand it" or keep

"Francesa said his comments about paternity leave have been taken out of context. "I was really speaking to someone who has a job like a Major League player like Murphy," he said. "Or, someone like me, you have a unique job, and you have the wherewithal to maybe afford care that some people may not, stuff like

Why? Women who get catcalled are regular women so if you reverse it it makes sense to do it to 'regular' guys. It's about illustrating the behavior not getting revenge.
