Does it make you more of an asshole than saying, "You're just not funny/nice/clean/interesting enough" ?

Can someone explain the Schwyzer-WoC thing? Not that I doubt it, I just haven't seen it.

Yeah, and Obama will forever be a cocaine-snorting student. Because one impression is the only impression you need!

Parody?

Just to re-iterate: if you're against prosecuting minors as adults, or against the death penalty for minors, then you gotta let this one go. People oppose those things because treating a child as though they have a fully-functional human brain is silly.

I don't get why people aren't being more critical of your urge to bully a grown person for what they did as an adolescent, but it's stupid.

Maybe we can just settle on "People who assume major things on little evidence aren't good"

If you're reading that as a threat, I'm sure it's not the first.

You sound like you'd be a lot of fun to drop a piano on.

Yeah, maybe the problem isn't that these companies love dudes and hate women, it's that they think they can sell this low-T shit way more profitably than a cheap dick-sticking.

Can we call smaller sizes something other than 'straight'? I don't have a clue where it comes from, but it sounds like you're matching the LGBT crusade for equal treatment with... y'know, having a hard time buying cute clothes. And their minority status with the situation of plus-size people (that phrase needs work…

Except that richer consumers are thinner, on average, so while your ideas would be great for a high-volume, low-margin retailer, they don't necessarily work for a nominally high-end brand like this one.

"can't even consider..." as though a huge fucking company just runs on gut instinct, and doesn't have anyone running analysis. Like nobody there has even thought, "Hey, what would we make/lose if we started selling larger sizes?"

BECAUSE SO FEW COMPANIES ARE MOVING TO SELL THOSE PLUS-SIZED CLOTHES! DO YOU REALLY THINK THAT A VAST MAJORITY OF RETAILERS ARE SO ANTI-PLUS-PEOPLE THAT THEY'D GLADLY THROW AWAY EASY MONEY OUT OF PHAT-PHOBIA?!

I don't believe that markets are perfectly efficient, but I do think that you're being a bit silly; do you really think that they'd forgo profits because they think that larger people aren't worthy of their clothes? Companies do make strategic mistakes all the time, and they suffer for them, but those mistakes stem…

Can we please put Carly Simon to bed? This "Who is 'You're So Vain' about?" bit has been her entire career for 30 years, and it's awful. And anyway, the song was written... by Jack Donaghy.

God is good.

I had to shout so hard to freeze a guy because I had to destroy this universe and create a new one in which vibrations can freeze matter without tearing it apart.

But people get tizzied-up about warning-as-victim-blaming all the time.

Better to be Amy Adams.
