I agree with everything you are saying. I maintain my previous statement that most of the people hating on her are struggling writers who resent how she used her Hollywood connections to get her own show (which is how Hollywood works, btw). I don't understand why we can't celebrate a normal-looking young woman…

Yes! It would make a good lesson in narrative perspective for my English class. You know, if it were at all appropriate to discuss sexy moms in class.

How is that her sister's fault? Gentrification happens. Especially in the biggest metropolitan area in the country. Yeah it sucks, but are you really saying we should hate on everyone who lives there?

OMG! Just urban dictionary-ed "days". LOL. Thanks for the heads up!!!

HAHAHAHAHAHA!

Why is Adele sooooo much more endearing on stage than Anne Hathaway? Like, shouldn't the actor's speech kick the ass of the singer's speech? Adele was a genuine delight, while Anne seemed so pretentious up there. :(

Thanks! I need some real talk on this.

Thanks! I'm hoping most people would get it because of her. Nice to hear an objective opinion.

I never had trouble cancelling my account (maybe the rules are different in Canada?), but I was super disappointed with Proactiv. I had pretty bad acne as a teen and I would have given anything to fix it. I remember crying the day the Proactiv arrived. It was very expensive but my parents were willing to pay for it to…

Because the ministry standard is 50% to pass. What that 50% amounts to depends on the grade and level of the course.
