I've taken a few carpentry classes in my time, and when I saw "buying lumber without using math" I started laughing and pretty soon I laughed so hard I blacked out and when I came to the saw was warm and there's a bookcase where there wasn't one before. I'm still not sure what happened, but I know NO MATH WAS DONE

Okay, blatant sexism aside, as the daughter of a master carpenter I have to say I laughed the hardest at "not having to use math," part. I watch my dad measure things out at LEAST twice before making the cut. Sometimes 3 times. That's WHY there's a popular saying that goes, "measure twice, cut once."

I once went over to a guy's house for a booty call, and I had been drinking rye before I went over there. So when he asked me if I wanted something to drink, I asked if he had any whiskey. He was like "Oh yeah! I have vanilla whiskey and Fireball and also this maple whiskey..." And I was like "How about just

When I see a man drinking bourbon, I think—did this dude steal my bourbon?

You all are so mean. I responded to this ad and this gentleman was fantastic. Sure, he "murdered" me, and now I'm a "ghost" speaking to you from "beyond the grave". But before he stabbed me 30 or 40 times(I know-you were expecting death by gun, weren't you??! he's full of romantic surprises like that). But back to

My sexting days are way behind me. The last time I took a sexy picture I accidentally sent it to my BFF who is also my boyfriend's co-worker. She was not happy about it. Not happy at all. That was a sign from the universe to knock that shit off.

"EXTREMELY NSFW PIC"

Confession: I was watching for a full 15 seconds before I realized it was the same two girls over and over.

"She's also an outlier in that at 5'4" and 105 lbs, her height-weight combination put her slightly below the threshold doctors who use the BMI scale would consider "healthy." She's also below what Weight Watchers would consider healthy for her height."

Interesting. So when it comes to overweight people, BMI is garbage

Wow, it's really impressive that you can tell different nationalities apart just by observing them at the movies. You can tell the difference between Mexicans, and Mexican Americans, and Hondurans, and Guatemalans? You must be extremely well versed in regional dialects of Spanish.
Since you are apparently very

Okay. Wait. I has a confused. It doesn't sound to me as though they are segregating anything. It sounds like they are creating an information station where underserved populations within the gaming community (read—not cis-straight white dudes) can get info on panels/etc that are being presented throughout the weekend

You do realise that this is a 60000+ person conference with admission open to the general public, correct?

I get that some gestures are empty, but it really seems that some of the writers on this site are determined to see the worst in everyone. This article is mean-spirited. The "Diversity Lounge" is a bit ham-fisted but it's definitely a step in the right direction — and as you note, they really seem to be making an

Wait. How does a space that's specifically designed to be inclusive - with no evident restrictions on who can show up - qualify as a "segregated lounge"?

I kind of want one. I don't know where I would put it since I don't have an apple laptop, but I do one.

Just don't get in a hurry and snap an errant labia.

I'm bisexual. Fucking nobody buys it as a legit orientation. You're either experimenting, looking for attention, or in denial. Queer and straight communities. I generally keep it to myself because I'm sick of hearing it.

Next week on Jezebel:

Yeah, I don't really get this one. If a Muslim girl wanted to run with her hair covered, and they wouldn't let her, you'd think the site would support that. Not because needing to have your hair covered is an intrinsically worthwhile and sensible thing, but because people get to decide what their own religious beliefs

I think this article is being a little too harsh on her. She's really young and has her whole life to discover what "taking faith too far" means. She made a decision and she's sticking by it. I think we have bigger things to worry about when it comes to America's youth.
