@mordicai: I've been having the same reactions to headlines that talk about the "debate" over birthright citizenship. What debate? It's in the Constitution, the courts have ruled on it. There's no debate. Just a bunch of white bigots who are afraid brown people might outnumber them someday. If the media wishes to…

@TheJubjubBird: I think he assumed he was her first because she was holding out. And she chose not to correct him - perhaps because she is old-fashioned? Perhaps because she senses he's not as progressive as he seems and would be upset to learn he's not? Perhaps because then she's have to explain why she's slept…

@nyc-caribbean-ragazza: "Watching Mad Men last night I thought, would anyone (outside of maybe some creative fields) have a conga line at an office party in 2010? Or booze at an office party? Nobody wants to be sued."

@Understater: She and Bill have a very violent relationship. They did a montage at the end of the episode that basically showed them trading blows over the last 150 years. She loves Bill and shows it with violence - he hates her and responds with his own violence.

@JustZoot: I'm not sure I'm the one who needs to lighten up...

@starsandbutterflies: I had one terrible date where the guy randomly complimented me throughout the date. My eyes, my dress, my watch (!), my flip flops (?!). Everything I said I was interested in he was too - oh my god! It got ludicrous and I was most certainly giving him the side-eye. Then after he drove me…

I'm not sure what everyone is being so defensive about here. I believe this post was intended to be humorous. Because the absurdity of Kanye's tweets is humorous. Not everything posted on Jezebel is meant to make you RAGE.

@Feverlady von Nippon: Well, acting like they were invented for westerners to get pedicures is pretty ludicrous.

@bp090499: Phew! Glad that's cleared up.

Wait...is this show live? Because traffic was all amuck near my office in DC because the president was going to speak at some convention. I'm confused.

I just want to point out that, if the renderings in my church growing up were any indication, Jesus wore flip flops. If it's good enough for Jesus, it's good enough for me.

@JustZoot: Take a chill pill, Grandpa!

@blameitonrio is voting MizJenkins for Jezident!: I'm impressed! So far, I've just bought arch supports in bulk and put them in all my shoes. I was mostly getting pain directly in my arch, and that has gone away. My toes have also stopped cramping up, which was happening when I wore my unsupportive ballet flats too…

@blameitonrio is voting MizJenkins for Jezident!: I definitely can't wear the cheap-o rubber flip flops. I bought a pair when I was living near the beach last year and one trip around the beach would leave me in pain for a few days. That's true with a lot of my shoes (including most of my flats), so I can't really…

@blameitonrio is voting MizJenkins for Jezident!: My Reefs have far more arch support than any flats, heels, or fancy sandals I own.

@Mina_da_mad_child: "I'm sorry, but flip flops are not shoes!!! They are slippers that were meant to be worn around the house and only seen in public when getting a pedicure or at the beach."

@BarbieMaul: Hadn't thought of them!

@delirium.megans: Perhaps the suggestion is Time Warner thinks it can broaden the magazine's appeal by drawing the focus away from its black audience and in line with mainstream (largely white) magazines. That's just a guess.

@LaFemme: At my old job, I would have been docked a year of professional advancement for each child I had, so it's definitely a benefit that advancement as a fed is not hampered in the same way. Ideally, I would have had my children while at my old firm to collect the good maternity benefits, then moved to the…

@LaFemme: While I'm aware that you can use sick days for maternity leave, it still means that if you want a reasonably paid maternity leave you have to be employed at the federal government for 3 or more years. That's a long time to accrue a benefit. And what if you want to have more than one kid less than 3-4 years…
