Yeah, it's not really a "hipster" (whatever that means anymore) thing as much as it is people not wanting to look out of the loop. This happens all the time—I'm sure, it's just not recorded. People want to relate to their peers.

Maybe he should keep doing it so that it brings more attention to our willingness to lie so quickly and easily for silly, shallow benefits like 'looking like I'm musically in-the-know.' Maybe we should all be inundated with every lie we tell so as to do it less.

The ability to block people from your Facebook feed is, frankly, the best function that website ever gave us IMHO. That way you can still pop over to their profile and see baby pics/wedding pics/vacation pics and wish happy birthday without the CONSTANT STREAM OF WTF.

Oh, man, I have a friend, a VERY GOOD FRIEND, a bridesmaid, I am the godmother to her daughter. And I absolutely hate her social media presence. Constantly making passive aggressive, attention-seeking status messages, self-congratulatory announcements about every good deed she ever does, public displays of affection…

He's a pompous, disrespectful blowhard who countenances spying and bullies guests. She a racist shit-stirrer who thinks she's advancing feminism by trolling and throwing other women she doesn't like under the bus, and then asking for dudebro points for being so "edgy" and "an equal opportunity offender". So I come…

And I think Bill O'Reiley is bad for the development of children that we would want to grow up to be rational, thinking, responsible adults.

O'Reilly needs to think about the example he's setting for all of his highly impressionable listeners. They have a very hard time making intelligent decisions for themselves and can be very easily influenced. Why would he tell old white people that birth control and welfare are bad when he knows the devastation…

Did you watch him in Hollow Man? If so, maybe that's why you think he's creepy. I did for a while.

I like the later sunlight that DST brings, but I just don't understand why we need STANDARD time anymore. Why can't we just spring forward one last time and then stop jacking with the clock forever?

I think she's really figured out how to be beautiful, but I think it's more work for her than it is for some more fortunate people. Good hair and makeup and confidence in your professional abilities really go a long way.

You are/will be a good parent.

You know, I think that modesty is a good value to teach girls (or rather children in general), if you go by the actual definition of it:

One of my good friends grew up sort of like this. She and her siblings were homeschooled, and only had socialization with other kids who grew up in similar situations in that small rural-ish Christian community. Her family wasn't nearly so extreme though, and the kids usually left to work regular, secular jobs. I met…

Everything those far right hardliners do is based in fear. They're afraid of foreigners! They're afraid of having to press 1 for English! They're afraid of women having a voice and being independent! They're afraid of minorities standing up to them! They're afraid of Obama! They're afraid of Christianity not being the…

And the bubble continues to grow. It really is frightening how effectively right-wing Christians can shield their children from any and all elements of the real world. I can't even imagine the shock one would suffer after a childhood of church, homeschooling, and insular groups like the Heritage Girls. Oof.

What sorts of cookies do you think you can get from the American Heritage Girls? I'll start.

The public is like the kid who gets a new toy for Christmas and gets absurdly excited and won't go anywhere without it, only to later get bored, leave it out in the yard and have it get rained and dog-pissed on and eventually picked up and tossed in the trash by mom or dad.

Religion is a self-professed behavior. You are not born Christian, you are baptized into it. You were brought up in the religion of your parents and upon reaching adulthood, you had the choice to leave. You had the choice to continue going to church, to switch to another church of the same denomination, to convert, or…

I need to say that as an Iowan, the majority of the state does not claim Steve King & are regularly embarrassed by him. We like to pretend that the northwest portion of the state doesn't exist, (save for a few good eggs) and we're proud of the fact that gay marriage has been legal here (by a unanimous decision) since…
