Maybe that's what Callista Gingrinch's hairdresser is doing.

I was just going to ask if the researchers were all childless men, or Martians. I've seen almost all of these behaviors in babies and I'm neither a Mom or a caretaker.

That method got my mother through many years of teaching some of the worst-behaved elementary students you could imagine.

Am I the only one who ever babysat toddlers who'd get all, "S/He's looking at meeeeeeee!" Make it stop!!!

I have Amazon Prime. Not available for this product. Thanks for the Target tip.

It seems you are legitimately struggling with this, but I'd ask that you reconsider using the term "a dick move" when referring to someone standing up for their constitutional rights. By that account, it was a "dick move" for the parents of black children to sue segregated school districts when the lawsuits were…

Dammit Anna, I was so psyched to get a couple of these, but on Amazon, the shipping is more than the bag. Still worth the price of saving my bras, but warn a gal, why don't you?

I actually think that the "pattern" is less about one team than about a time-honored tradition in the culture of college sports of protecting (mostly) male athletes from the consequences of their bad behavior.

Thanks for raising the issue in such a thoughtful way!

I'm so glad you brought up the topic of hair. Those little girls in the pic are adorbs, but we still have a hard time accepting dark girls with natural hair. All the young black women I know get their hair straightened before they graduate college and I can't say anything to them because I know employers have a bias…

Bravo! This is so eloquently put, it needs to be an update to Dodai's post. I'm more medium complected with, so I've mercifully escaped much of the colorism on both sides—although I've witnessed a shit ton of it.

I think I see your point and I guess they could be enlightening (if you didn't see the false equivalency argument [every.single.time] there's a Jez post about race).

I wish Gawker Media could be consistent with when paragraph breaks work.

"He said he has used the phrase "at least 100 times" in headlines over the years"

I should STFO, but I don't remember anything about Glen Campbell's response beyond him calling Tanya Tucker a crazy woman. I don't think Chris Brown has shown remorse beyond being sorry that everyone is picking on him. Blowing up at a reporter who asks about it is not showing growth and transformation.

an egg?

Glad to hear it. As I read through, I realized that the reporter was trying to build up some gender divide.

Actually, when I thought about it, one of the two I thought of as calm and relaxed drinks a lot.

"Mr. Brea, a 43-year-old who favors football, blue blazers, Polo cologne and chopping wood in his Catskills backyard on weekends"

Not to be a Debbie Downer, but am I the only one who squee'd and worried that the dog was going to accidentally bit off the parrot's head?
