I feel like you don't know what you're talking about at this point. I'm not saying that to be unkind. Quite the opposite.

I actually like Van Hollen, even if it means a whiter, male-r Senate. Maybe Heather Mizeur could leapfrog to a Senate seat somehow?

It's more like "assault rape." Totally different.

I think this is my new favorite thing on Kinja.

"Oh no, I love Mindy Kaling but hate all the Kardashians!" scream all the people who don't understand that a cornerstone of every Mindy Kaling character is her exuberant, unabashed love for everything pop culture. Like, one of her primary points with these characters is that type of judgment is inherently based in…

That's fair. My response is ugh and *eye roll*. Mindy's character seems like she would love the Kardashians though.

My pure and mildly obsessive love for everything Mindy made me click on this link despite my absolute hatred for anything Kardashian. Now, this is the worst thing that happened to me all day bc I was an episode behind and had no idea that Mindy's pregnant. I am blaming Kris Jenner. My hatred burns further.

Now that's a look I wish would come back in style!

I don't mind a low-key peplum on a fancy jacket or dress, so long as the "waist" hits me at a flattering point (rare). But yeah, unless you're thin and have a tiny waist (I don't) or a relatively straight/"athletic" figure and smallish chest (ah ha ha haaa), a peplum top has a high likelihood of making you look like a…

Handkerchief top? Or neon raver crop-top?

Once you've reached your 40s, you've seen various trends come and go multiple times. Everything I was wearing in high school has been back for years (and I'm sure now on its way out). I laughed at first, because I could tell the kids wearing the stuff thought they were soooooooo fashion forward. Now I just pick and…

This was my doomed 80s adolescence. I was thin and lithe and just the right balance of lanky and curvy. and all the fashion was oversized, baggy and shapeless. I really hope this trend doesn't stick. I mean, I've been wearing boot cuts all the way through the skinny jeans trend, so it won't affect me— I'm just…

Ugh, truth. I wear high waisted and skinny jean stuff now. I fucking hate JNCOs and do not want them to come back, but the gigantic pants trend has been creeping along the edges for a while—usually they are in a linen-type fabric, but they are there. I will do what I always do with trends: wait a few years in until…

Agree 100%. I used to have jeans that looked just like Rihanna's up there and they were so comfortable! I was hip AND comfortable. I can say with certainty that hasn't happened since.

Yep. I wore wide leg jeans in middle school to hide my thunder thighs and juicy butt, but those jeans made me look like I had Clidesdale legs attached to a bubble. high waisted skinny jeans actually make my lower half look damn good and I will NEVER LET THEM DIE.

I have a pair of high waisted jeans just like those...they are my mom's from the 70s. I used to fit into them ... Twenty pounds/five years ago lol

As someone who possesses thunder thighs, I can't fucking wait. I'm so over every pair of pants having a skinny cut that I can't get more than a few inches past my knees.

when these were popular the first time I so desperately wanted to cool that I bought light wash mom jeans 5 sizes too big and called them my "waddle pants". I wore them with white clog style Nursemates. What I'm saying is, the late ninties were a good time for me style wise and I made a lot of sound decisions.

Obviously the versions available to we peasants won't be as comfortable since we won't be allowed the soft fabrics, but instead stiff denim or itchy poly-rayon blends. A soft sweatpants-esque version will probably pop up, but I'm hoping it dies swiftly, because, seriously, the stretchy gaucho look was awful.

The best Super Bowl conversation ever, between the 11 year-old and 14 year-old sons of a friend of my husband's.
