I don’t think they view any living being as anything but an accessory or prop.

I'm not saying anything about hair fragility or softness. I'm saying "coarse" meaning not a fine, thin piece of hair incapable of holding a curl without using 40,000 products. Lots of different types of people have coarse hair; there is nothing wrong with having coarse hair! And I'm not arguing anything like "white…

I totally agree. I'm saying they are not the same things, and the word "weave" refers to a specific process. One isn't better than any other, just a different method of application. I thought I replied to the person who said she knew nothing about hair extensions and wanted to clarify that a weave wasn't just another…

Yeah, my first comment says anyone can get one. And nowhere did I ever say they are only for black people.

I totally see your point, and I'm sure it's completely valid. That said, they are different things, with weaves being associated almost completely with black women due to hair texture differences. I think that's an important distinction.

They're not the same. A weave is called such because a hair piece is actually woven into the natural hair. Anyone can do it, but most people I know of agree that coarser texture is better for holding it. Extensions may weaves, and weaves are a type of extension. Most white people i know of go for the type that bonds…

I completely despise the kardashian family, but damn it if Scott Disick isn't a national treasure.

This settles it for me: I'm going to my next birthday as a Man of War.

I would totally find that reasonable except that the menu explicitly states that it is a hot dog with sauerkraut and nothing else except a bun. The owner/cook has been in business for 35 years and learned a thing or 2 along the way, so the menu anticipates such inquiries.

I'm a car hop at a fast food eatery/tourist trap. We literally have pages of quotes like these that we record every summer. For example, numerous people are stumped as to what would be on a product called a "Kraut Dog." Also, "can you eat at the picnic tables?" Or the person who wanted us to crush french fries so she…

I can't wear most plus-size clothing. I gain weight in my waist and that's it, so when I shop at Lane Bryant the waist fits, but the rest is a baggy, sagging mess. And if I add a chunky belt, I look like Santa Claus! It's like that for most plus size lines. For once I'd love to go into a store, find something cute,…

A close family member works for TWC, so I hear quite a bit about the company. One huge problem: the company doesn't give their techs new equipment. When people call in that something doesn't work, more often than not the malfunctioning product ends up in the back of a TW vehicle to be installed in someone else's home.…

I love Shakira, and Ojos Asi is one of my all-time favorite songs. I cannot even make it through much of the english-language junk she's been releasing. This song with Rihanna is so, so bad and the video is even worse. I did really enjoy her Sale el Sol album, probably because she worked with the same producers she…

I had so many issues with Nuvaring, and I tell everyone I know not to touch that shit. I didn't get yeast infections, but my worst side effects were extreme hair loss and huge changes/drops in blood sugar. There are not many things scarier than being an hour away from home, on the road, and having your blood sugar…

I thought that was Miley in the picture with John Mayer. Surely I wasn't the only one?!

I'm not Dr. Hawass' biggest fan, but I don't think that's completely fair. Yes, he's known for being a dick, and passing off others' research as his own, but he has been pretty good for keeping Egyptian antiquities Egyptian. He has used them for personal gain, no doubt, but he's been very successful in his attempts to…

That's exactly it: they fought a pointless war and harmed so many people, and yet feel nothing.

On another note: I recently spent a lot of time with an old family friend. He was a Marine in WWII, part of an elite Raider battalion, and was super proud of it (as he should be!). Through my work with him I spent a lot of…

I definitely agree with your take on him, but only to a certain extent. I think he's a party boy who loves to feel important. He's not smart, but I don't think that absolves him of responsibility for his administration's gross failures.

I am scared of the faction of America who went out and voted for him. I am also…

Those are my exact feelings! They seem to want us to buy into a narrative where awful things happened to GW, not the truth that GW and his staff consciously made terrible decisions and wantonly damaged the US. I don't think he has a conscience, if he is not troubled by how incredibly bad he was at his job.

I am aware of one collaboration between the two, but regardless of that, there is no denying that BC is much more visible and much more hands-on in his foundation's work (the man seems to love the spotlight, GW does not). I wouldn't deny that GW and his foundation have done some good work since his presidency, but…
