Thank you for this comment!

Ok first off I agree with p much everything you said.

Horrified, yet not really surprised that it’s Irvine. Welcome to the OC indeed.

Yeah, I think this succeeded at being funny but didn’t really get into the actual issues w “positive” stereotypes. There’s also the issue that a lot of the time when we say that a group is good at something we’re ignoring whatever hardships that group faces that force them to work hard at that thing. (sorry that’s as…

I always use the cold cycle after the one time my husband had a weird meltdown because he felt fat and thought his clothes must have shrunk in the wash. Nice to know my attempts to avoid another fight are saving us sixty bucks a year!

I agree that people should be considerate (my sister is really allergic to smoke, so I’m aware of the issues), but it sounds like the ordinance was an effort to de facto ban people from smoking pot in the town at all, which kind of sucks since the state already voted to legalize it.

That is messed up! I attend Pagan services along with a large group of people in the house of some of our community members, but I doubt they could get tax-exempt status for it.

If you’re talking about “Girl You Don’t Need Makeup,” it’s a parody from a comedy sketch show?

Maybe I’m missing something but that seems like kind of a sad comedown for Tyson.

I am not a parent, but I feel like “they’re just messing around, don’t worry about it” covers it? I mean, I definitely recall having a pretty clear understanding of the principles of just doing weird shit for weird shit’s sake.

Gabourey’s tweet made me wonder: if you’re a celebrity, does that mean you’re never a stranger?

Especially since she admitted that she was naive. She isn’t saying that he broke the law, just that he took advantage of her trust, which is a shitty thing to do.

I absolutely have this reaction. My life is a mess and walking into The Container Store fills me with visions of how great everything could be if I could just put everything into its proper place...

I’m kind of a fan? Not of Kris, but of the actual Kardashian sisters. I’m not entirely sure why, there’s just something about them I relate to... like being really passionate about style and beauty but never quite being able to make it look easy in the way that’s necessary for a real icon. They’re kind of the opposite…

I think Coyote Ugly was like that? Except they weren’t actually strippers, they were go-go dancers or something. IDK it was a long time ago.

That is both the best celebrity name-drop I’ve ever heard, and a perfect iambic pentameter line, jsyk

In all seriousness I would love it if you would tell me about all the fun things to do there. I go there annually for a convention with my husband and am always bored stiff, but I am willing to take your word for it that I just don’t know about the cool stuff.

It’s one of my biggest fantasies. It’s partly a dominance thing and partly... IDK, an aesthetic thing? I think the idea of seeing a guy in that position is really hot. I’ve done it with female partners and really enjoyed it because watching your partner feel pleasure is great. But with a guy it’s kind of a whole…

Isn’t “chicken” slang for too-young sex partners? or is that only a gay thing?

I liked The Wedding Singer. And I saw Happy Gilmore, but not voluntarily or happily.
