I think you've got something, there.

AMAZING. You are a gentlewoman and a scholar!

PERFECTION

So perfect.

That is the funniest freaking thing I have ever read. I am being completely serious.

Sounds like the Desiree I know!

Can I put that as a blurb on the back of my next book? Its a book of baby names.

This is my song!

Not Seth Rogen, thank god. Don't know who it is but Seth ain't on the IMDB.

I think you make an excellent point.

Yeah. I took forever to type out that post, so I apologize for seeming to pile on you. I guess by the time I actually managed to hit publish, everyone had already said everything I wanted to say and said it better. Once again, didn't mean to repeat!

When they making clothes in restrictive sizes, its behind bullshit facades of 'market demand' and 'target customer base'. This is a problem, but compare to:

A&F is a

I think that's the difference. Saying "I'm not going to make any clothes larger than a 10 because fatties are gross" is different than just not making any clothes in large sizes.

Saw a video of it once in health class and I'm pretty much good for the rest of my life.

Especially for a song that has been used in a Pepsi commercial for like two months now!

Archie is NOT fucking Mr. Weatherbee! OMG.

I wanted to like her in X-Men, just because she looks the part, but man that was some bad acting. If your personality affects a role in that way, you kinda want to talk about it, so I agree.
