@jlpwjh4l: Yeah, maybe it's my optimistic way of trying to get through the day? I'm thinking there won't be too much to celebrate tonight. But who knows? Maybe you're right about the polls...

Yikes. My polling place was EMPTY this morning. Maybe that's a good thing? (In the MI governor's race, GOP Rick Snyder has been ahead in the polls... hugely... for quite some time.) Maybe Republicans aren't going to vote? Wishful thinking?

*NOT* an excuse, but I believe that the Europeans have a totally different relationship with blackface than we do here. At carnival in France, for instance, it's apparently pretty common for the street bands to do this. I almost had a heart attack when I saw it for the first time... with people of all races going by…

@Spacemilk: Very famous photographer; has taken many iconic shots; is a total and complete sleeze/asshole/misogynist/"alleged" sexual assaulter.

I own a vintage store and made the decision not to sell fur. I don't even sell faux-fur in leopard print because I believe it perpetuates its image of glamor and luxury. It is 2010, and I don't believe we should be selling endangered animal fur... even if it just looks like it. And you're right, Saide; to me it feels…

You mean that there are actually people out there in the country that are capable of intelligent, civil discourse? In the age of the Tea Party and Jersey shore? This is heartening for all mankind. And I swear (as emphatically) that I'm not being sarcastic.

Well, he might have 99 problems, but it seems a bitch is no longer one of them. Good for him!

Are they frickin kidding me? Do people understand how ridiculously expensive it is to store embryos? Yeah, I'm sure I could have easily afforded that while going to school and waitressing in my 20's.

Weed is the best natural medicine I know.

Justification & Guilt??? God, I can't stand that you make me feel like I should defend her. Ugh & Ugh.

BD Wong is one of my favorite people in the entire world!

Biggest lie of all time: telling my mother that my husband and I eloped when, in fact, we had a large, overseas wedding with my dad's side of the family. Difficult to do in the age of Facebook. She still doesn't know the truth, but it definitely takes long-term management...

@Kit Cloudkicker: Yes, Skeeter is in a completely different league then The Situation.

I remember Reese Witherspoon saying that her daughter Ava *loves* Taylor Swift. So.... that must be awkward.

Haha, what kind of medication makes you lock a prostitute in the closet and go bat-shit crazy? Must suck to be HIS publicist!

I was just disappointed they didn't have more women comedians for this skit.

PLEASE watch this propaganda video from the "personhood" people (who seem to have no human compassion) and give to Progress Now Colorado to fight this: [secure3.convio.net]

Question: Aren't these the same two hormones in birth control pills? Why don't they cause mortality due to breast cancer when in the Pill? Is age a factor? WTF???

Wow- she really drank her own Kool-Aid..... and seems to be convincing other people to do so, too.

Isn't a "sexy pickle" just another word for penis?
