I am now going to wash my brain out with bleach after reading that disgusting, repulsive, vile mess from The Daily Beast. Unbelievable and sickening.

Totally unrelated in most ways but still:

Best music video in years.

ha! good point.

Please don't ever use a sentence again where you say Camille Paglia is right. For the sake of the children. Or something.

This made me think about all the friends I have that diet incessantly, and whose metabolisms have been screwed for all eternity by it. I know women on strict 1200 calorie diets, and they exercise 3 days or more a week. Still no weight loss. AND if they go off those diets in any way, massive weight gain occurs very…

Oh yes. I'm a teacher, too. We're evil bastards, don't you know, what with our summer "vacations." (haha. I have to work to make up the low salary in the summer, plus you know, I have to take classes about being a teacher, for which I pay.) And our high $40,000 salaries. And tenure! Well, if you get tenure, that's…

Working for college credit at an unpaid internship is one thing. There are particular guidelines, etc.

I wonder how he'd feel if you reached down and grabbed his penis. And squeezed really, really hard.

This makeup is a bit reminiscent of Zaz, a singer who did this for her album Recto Reverso, out LAST May.

haha! Excellent.

Honestly, the swan part is hilarious. Is it meant to be funny?

And that would have been an even better answer. "I have no idea. I didn't keep a day planner. Today. Cocaine. Tomorrow. Adderall."

Yeah, that's my feeling. She's probably done quite a bit of coke, but who wants to say, "Well, I remember doing it 10 or 15 times ... but who knows? Could have been more."

Both Gaga and Hilton are acting like children at this point. Hilton has been truly awful in the past, a serious asshole. But, in this case, I kind of think he went to New York, with his mother and his child, to look at apartments, since he's going to live there. I can't imagine he didn't know it was her building, but…

The best part is the assumption that the author of the study takes, that every cycle is the same. She should know better.

Just ignore them. They aren't very smart, clearly, and aren't capable of responding with any measure of intelligence, so they "make fun" because it hides their lack of capability to understand. Feel sorry for them. They have to pretend they are funny (when they are quite dull) because otherwise, they don't have any…

Yeah. I had that same reaction, actually. Not really qualified to fully discuss these issues.

Well. I don't know about studies, but anecdotal evidence of my entire life suggests that, while not every cycle is the same, some are preceded by water weight gain (on the actual scale), immense hunger or finding all food disgusting, headaches, increased pimples on face, cramps, fatigue, and occasionally, I do find…
