The Daily Mail writes that the debs used to be presented to the Queen each year, until Prince Philip said it was "bloody daft."

Balls would be so much more interesting if they hadn't moved on with more modern styles.
That just made me laugh. I can picture that scene in my head. My mother would have done the same for sure. And when I say laugh I'm laughing with you.
My family has been making wine for hundreds of years. My family is still alive. Coincidence? I don't think so.
Ya know what's interesting? I'll be 25 in 2 weeks (when the fuck did I get this old, but whatevs lol) and for Halloween, specifically, I've dressed up as white characters more times than not and never did it occur to me that I, as a Black woman, should paint my face to look white to achieve "the look" of the…
ALWAYS. Diet tips, and HOW I LOST A BAZILLION POUNDS BY WATCHING CAT VIDEOS! on the cover next to recipes for cakes, cookies, the best mac & cheese, Your Family Will Love These Lard Rolls!, etc. etc. WTF kind of cognitive dissonance is that? Burn them. Burn them all.
Some people believe that things cannot be more than one thing at a time. I don't know how they function in the world.
Oh come on, I am sure that note will result in that child and parent adopting a healthy lifestyle, becoming happy, and having productive healthy lives. This will not be the topper on a big pile of shit that leads to therapy and eating disorders...surely....
Saying it negates the effects of exercise just doesn't compute with my experience. When I run, I always have a small glass of red wine beforehand, because for some magic reason I can run about twice as far before I get winded. I think the fix for this "negation" problem is don't drink after you exercise...do it before…
Alcohol consumption by women has also been found to cause rape, which is why doctors recommend only one glass for women, but men get to safely enjoy two.
"To alcohol! The cause of, and solution to, all of life's problems."
That is the perfect use of that gif.
I just had an epic argument over the Trayvon Martin/George Zimmerman Halloween costumers with a close friend who doesn't believe blackface is offensive. (We're both black, btw.) His argument? That the costumes were stupid and offensive to the Martin family and the memory of their son but were definitely not racist. My…
This article is a great teaching moment, because as a teacher I've long contended that kids need to know all about the old time-y racist stuff so they DO NOT DO IT. You'd be AMAZED what the young'uns don't know is racist.
"Oh wow, that's all terrible. But what if I still really, really want to wear blackface? I'm just gonna go ahead and... ... *begins applying make-up*"
well the children are being shamed right there at the door by not receiving the same thing as the other kids (and in your idea, by receiving a note that the skinny kids don't get)! no kid likes to be singled out, especially since if they're a fat kid they probably already get made fun of. don't get me wrong, I think…
My cousin Claire is essentially a brunette version of Gwyneth Paltrow, right down to the fat-shaming, macrobiotic monomania and $200 cashmere socks. She gives out mini boxes of All-Bran cereal to trick-or-treaters in her fabulously wealthy Toronto neighbourhood, I shit you not.
This is mean but I like to imagine when I am an old battleaxe I could put notes in with the candy saying 'pull up your pants!', 'tidy your room!', 'read more!', 'put down that smartphone!', 'get off my lawn!', 'your costume is racist!' and other such things.
