That’s not... what?

My mother-in-law’s version of this is served warm, topped with clouds of both soft meringue AND lightly sweetened whipped cream like the perfect storm of soft fluffy upper-lip-decorating weatherforms.

Why stop at narcissist or sociopath? He seems like a bipolar borderline spiritual vampire to me. Those china plates! And exactly how much leeway are we supposed to give Gwen Ihnat before she needs to take responsibility for her own bad choices here, anyway? She’s the Becky that’s Stockholm-syndroming this…

Whatevs. Hanging onto a china set associated with a past marriage is VILE. It’s past time for Gwen to say bye-bye to this sociopathic entitlemonster. Must we watch another Sleeping with the Enemy scenario play out before our eyes? Next year he’ll be serving her heart on those cursed plates, and for all we know Lena…

“...reprehensible beyond reproach...”?

Bacon has played a big role. Unless you really mean a roll. Which is possible?

That is beautiful pastrami

!!!!!!The Schmitter!!!!!! The Schmitter. You made my day.

Go to George’s sandwich shop at the north end of the Italian Market and get one with fried onions, American and long-hot peppers, and make sure they give you a good splash of the spicy-veal gravy on your onions (but you don’t have to make sure, because that’s how they do it, because they are everything that’s right…

This piece provides a spicy counterpoint to Kelly Faircloth’s current ““““updated”””” article about Amy Schumer’s ““““Inclusive”””” clothing line elsewhere on the site. Here, it’s on the journalist to cover all bases and avoid letting his priors over-determine the shape of the story. Over there, it’s on the subject to…

I am so tired of Amy Schumer doing things that are not good enough and then forcing me to think about and discuss the inadequacy of her tries. !! Her and Lena Dunham, and Jennifer Lawrence (2015-present) and soooooooo many of these other wannabe-acceptable laydeez are on my LAST. NERVE. How am I supposed to find time…

Yeah I know. I just think she’s one of those celebrities who people project onto and mindread and then judge SO INTENSELY that it’s a little weird and makes you wonder. Like she wrote a show about self-involved, self-absorbed people that was (to some) funny exactly because of the way it observed and portrayed those…

I know! Her ass = super lame. The worst!

OMG YES! Yes. Lena Dun-HAM is a terrible, terrible, terrible, TERRIBLE, terrible... (I could go on)... person. Terrible. It’s the thoughtless misspeaking that gets me. She misspeaks and then apologizes, like, periodically! I cannot even...

I don’t even know if it’s about Adam Levine - a human corndog, feminist or not - but just about what it does to the rest of us to spend all this time finding reasons to shit on people for crimes of imperfection that we’re all guilty of.

Yes to this. Seems like, based on what a few local [women/people of color/transgender people/gay people/Jews/Muslims/and others] have been saying lately, deep empathy can sometimes be a stretch for some [men/white people/cisgender people/straight people/Christians&Muslims&c/Christians&Jews&c/and others] to achieve.…

How are you calibrating the scale for “zero risk” and “minimal effort?” And why is it so important to make your first response to someone’s effort - pointing out that it’s “minimal?” People who step out of their safe social comfort zones to stand against injustices that don’t directly affect them are few and far…

I’m not really @ing you now, just carrying the dialogue forward for its own sake. Not pressuring you to change your stance, which I understand is firm. If we were talking I’d say: look, you are expressing the frustration and discomfort you feel as a result of other people’s actions and attitudes. Presumably you’d like…

Some people love to dismiss trigger-warning culture. They say millennials are entitled snowflakes who want to be handled with kid gloves while they, in turn, show little patience for the feelings, priorities or subjectivity of others. I think that argument’s unfair, reductive and inflexible. Generally.

The Human Centipede of brownies. Gotta be way to make that sound cleverer... the Fudgy Centibrown. The- nope.
