It really doesn’t help that Nivea is a German company. And Germans, trust me on this, love using it. For everything. Basically, if you have an internal ailment, you drink chamomile tea. For anything topical, you use Nivea.

“Looks good to us!”

Because a lot of countries run ads like this. They don’t claim “white purity,” but skin brighteners/bleachers are wildly popular in Asia.

Reminds me of skin whitening ads I have seen in parts of Asia, particularly those “Fair and Lovely” ads so popular in India.

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK! Why do my clients have to make my fucking job so fucking hard?!

My wife and her family are native Spanish speakers, though when I’m around they speak mostly English. But sometimes when I’m over for dinner (especially if they have other Spanish-speaking guests over) they’ll slip into extended discussions in Spanish, but my wife or my mother-in-law generally translate for me…

I know many people who just naturally switch back and forth between their first language and English when with their family, even when English-only people are around. It’s natural, not meant to offend, and they are usually saying inconsequential things. The parts of the conversation that you need to know will either…

There are definitely situations when it can be rude. I’m in the Army, and we have a lot of native Spanish speakers. 95% of the time I don’t give a fuck if we’re sitting around doing nothing and people are bullshitting in Spanish. But when I start hearing my name, names of coworkers, and we’re still in the workplace?…

Or she just wants to talk to her mom in Arabic?

My son has been on several youth sports teams that had groups of parents who often conversed in their native languages during games, though their English was good. Throughout the games you’d hear “blah blah blah Aidan blah blah blah Adam blah blah Anthony”. They weren’t fooling anybody.

I had a boyfriend once whose family made it a point to speak only Spanish in front of me. They weren’t even native Spanish speakers, they were just assholes who didn’t like me and liked to exclude me from shit and talk about me in front of my face.

One of my college roommates once grabbed me aside and said, “I know people can feel weird when others speak other languages in front of them - but don’t worry, I promise I’m not talking about you when I call my mom and suddenly switch into Russian. I AM, however, probably talking about Roommate X.”

I have a neighbor that switches to Spanish sometimes when talking to their family. They all speak English. It is pretty uncomfortable to be part of a conversation and then you’re not.

My coworker talks on her phone at her desk in Arabic all the time and I’m 10000% sure she’s bitching about me to her mom.

As much as I loved ‘Hands to Myself’, Selena ain’t in the same league as Beyonce. BlindGossip had a story recently on how Selena’s PR team bought her a shit-ton of Instagram ‘followers’ to make her seem more popular*

I thought it was just me being old but, yeah... I get it.

Only because Katie is younger and already has a child.

I still call Schroedinger’s relationship. Only Katie knows if he’s in the box.

I wonder how Ms. Thorne is going to start self-medicating now that she diagnosed herself. This’ll end really well.

This is shitty! Don’t post pictures of private celebs if you see them. They have made it clear they want to be private. I’m not going to even get into the idea of taking the picture or keeping the picture or telling immediate friends and family - but don’t go posting the freaking pics! have like an ounce of chill.
