Nope. I don’t think the impetus is—-or should be—-on oppressed people to “do their research” before speaking up against regimes that denounce their very being and personhood. There are obviously amazing activists around the world fighting to basic human and civil rights—-I stand in awe of them. But the fact that I am…

Isn’t that a bit of a cop-out though? I mean criticizing ISIS is easy. Fucking Al-Qaeda does it. They’re the abortion bombers of the Muslim world. It’s not just the far fetched radicals who are the problem it’s the conservatives who genuinely believe that because they think drawings of their prophet is offensive you…

She did the equivalent of yelling ‘fire’ in a crowded theater.

it’s fucking rude to deliberately mock and troll a group of people for their religious beliefs.

I’m not saying that we need to “be okay with it”. I’m saying that we should support people’s right to say and do offensive things without fear of being murdered.

Catholics also don’t like it when you make jokes about the Pope. But I’ll continue to maintain that the Holy Father shits in the woods.

Geller is a hateful moron, and yes, the purpose of the contest was purely to offend, but you’re way off base in suggesting that people should defer to the sensibilities of extremists in order to placate them.

Beck’s birthday present wasn’t the Spice Girls reunion, it was the fact that they didn’t sing at his party.

Except that they’re the legal owners of the Tower of London and a number of other landmarks. Also, they are one of the largest landowners in England. Currently, all of that revenu goes to Parliment due to a previous arrangement. If they become private citizens, all of that income will revert to them.

Eh, I dunno about that. They bring in a shit ton of tourist dollars and the royal warrant on items make them more desirable. I mean, there’s no reason we have Kardashians or celebs in general, but there you go. There will always be expensive, useless people.

Are you shitting me? No downside? Even imagining the legal palaver and frothing, hysterical nonsense involved in abolishing the monarchy makes me want to go lie down in a darkened room for a very long time. I don’t like the notion of royalty at all, but holy shit, I like the idea of going through that ridiculous…

He’s not official. He’s just some guy who appointed himself to do this because he likes to dress up and get attention.

I think they really did not know and specifically because when you don’t know you can’t slip up accidentally, and Charles has said before he wants a granddaughter so I don’t think what he said was confirmation of that, it was just coincidence. 50/50 chance and all that.

Rachel and Joey?

Yeah, seriously. This shit of Jezebel railing against the supposed 1% and judging people for “trying” to look “rich” is just fucking tired. Stop projecting your prejudices onto other people and making assumptions about them, it’s gross.

Holy shit, Dude. It’s clothing. I am a short, chubby white woman from Minnesota, knocking on middle age’s door and I wear Lilly Pulitzer. And I have worn the brand for 20 years. I’m not especially wealthy, nor does my family name grace any building. I just like bright colored clothing in the summer. I’m not a bimbo…

I wasn’t going to read this article because I was fairly certain it was either stupid or would make me angry (it was both, yay!), but I did because you shared your comments on it to GT and I needed to see what you were talking about.
I don’t own a fur vest, but if I did anyone who had a problem with it could “eat me”.…

Maybe those Malibu women you’re loving to hate so much are just like the rest of us: constantly barraged with a message of how we’re supposed to look, act, and perform, lest we upset the herd.

There's a lot of things in this article that seems objective at first but nearing the end there you sorta went wide and I'm trying to write this response without sounding or feeling defensive.

I work in fashion and live in Manhattan, yet I am by no means rich nor am I impoverished. I'm a first generation immigrant and…

But to avoid trying too hard for fear of not looking nouveau riche is its own kind of trying hard. Your description here makes me roll my eyes. Your cultivation of a “discreet” style is a style in itself, and it takes as much effort to sustain it as it does chasing the fur coat. “We only vacation in spots that the…
