It's been deleted. Can you give us a general idea of what it was?

For telling me what I want to hear, you are my favorite person on the internet today.

I get pretty sick of athletes grandstanding with their charity donations—a thousand bucks for every home run I hit! (Looking at you, Matt Kemp.) If the cause means that much to you, just donate the damn money and don't make it about you. Kevin Durant wins all the kudos today.

"I know this whole Gawker crew is pro-woman, but let me show you all that I'm a raging neanderthal."

Look, how am I supposed to fit in my full regimen of GTL if I have to waste valuable time with lotion sunscreen?!

Yeah, it's the ease. I'm basically the laziest person alive, and I also burn very easily which means I reapply every couple of hours regardless. I KNOW that lotion sunscreen doesn't actually take that long, but it feels like it's foreeeevvvveerrr to rub that shit in. The spray stuff actually makes me feel greasy, but

Oh man, that website is a huge bummer. I can't use Bullfrog either?! Thanks for passing it along, it's very useful.

Does anyone know the effectiveness of the spray sun screen versus the classic lotion? I love that spray shit—I think it's so much more convenient and faster to apply, but it also feels like my skin isn't REALLY being protected.

Used it when I went to Spain, had a phenomenal experience. It was dirt cheap with an incredible location—right in the middle of the historic district, where it would have been hundred of euros a night. I basically had to apply to the owner and tell her about myself—who I was traveling, what I was planning on doing

and god help you if you are an ugly girl
course too pretty is also your doom
cause everyone harbors a secret hatred
for the prettiest girl in the room

It's only one of the oldest and most persistent stereotypes of the DC area that everyone dresses the same, but sure, I guess it must be a new thing.

Good for you. It's possible that I'm not completely making things up.

The reason I phrased it the way I did is because I was trying to make it clear that I find this trend incredibly troubling. If there were a marker for bone cancer, would people go around getting legs cut off just because they had the requisite mutation? I don't give two shits about Angelina Jolie, what I care about is

I guess I'm sorry you feel that way? But if I don't get a vote neither does anyone else, which makes every comment on here irrelevant. I guess we should stop the internet, then.

I feel like I need to reiterate this just in case I haven't been clear: I don't have a problem with her decision. Good for her, she made the decision that was right for her in consultation with her doctors. I take issue with the implication that this is the right choice for everyone or should the the universal

Nothing that I posted is voodoo scare tactics either. A complete mastectomy is no guarantee that you won't get cancer. There's a difference between knowing your risk factors and encouraging other women to take a radical, unproven surgical step.

At the turn of the 20th century, treatment for breast cancer was developed by a surgeon named William Stewart Halsted, who became convinced that he had found the cure for breast cancer. His solution was a radical mastectomy, wherein he would take not just the entire breast, but the surrounding lymph nodes, underlying

I understand that that's what she said in the article, but that it not correct. Having the mutation does not mean that you will get breast cancer, it just means your risks are higher. IT DOES NOT MEAN YOU WILL AUTOMATICALLY GET CANCER. Look, it's her body and she gets to do whatever the fuck she wants to with it, but

That is so blatantly untrue. Everyone in the developed world is aware of breast cancer and the associated risks because of the pink-infused culture in which we live now. All Angelina has done is brought awareness to a radical, risky, expensive procedure that most women shouldn't have even with the gene mutation.
