It's true. And conversely I'd find something to mock about the person giving the GOP response - they just always seem to make it so very easy.

I totally would have played with them as a kid if they were there.

I'll come by. The place I would go to is going to be taken over by my cousin's conspiracy theorist wife. I think she's shoot me upon entry because she's batshit, and, she hates that I'm a liberal. She thinks I'm doomed in the apocalypse. I'm not anti-gun though (may get one for self defense), and I'm a good cook, and…

You may be the dumbest person on the planet. Congratulations.

Someone's going to blame Obama for this.

I hate that I know this, but I've looked at his twitter pictures...his own anus would accurately be described as "gaping" and I think he's happy with that (though I was horrified) so goes with it for literary effect.

I know, I've been in those workshops (though not at Iowa) and kind of liked that scene. Twitched a bit.

This is why I never want to be famous. My epic fuckups are relatively unknown. Still I'm petrified of tweeting something unintentionally awful and having it go viral.

Me either. I've never use it - I'd piss on myself first. I'm not someone particularly paranoid about safety in general - but nope, never will happen. I'm all for the single unisex bathroom though.

Amazing how often stuff like that happens. I know of someone who faked cancer and another who faked an unspecified debilitating illness. I suspect a third. All three were connected with animal internet forums.

Whoa. I thought it was artificial skin grown in a lab.

OK, call it concern trolling, then.

Pretty dismissive comment. Inaccurate as well.

Agree and I think it's the same reason I've become obsessed with post-apocalyptic fiction. Do-over! If you survive the zombie plague.

Did the same in a parking lot once - it was hilarious. Was sad I was alone at the time.

Yes! A lot of people are missing that point. He spoke of a very specific set of actresses, I think probably the same ones who turn themselves into lizard people with fillers in an effort to appear young enough for ingenue roles (does not work) (please stop, ladies).

No, I don't think so - I think she was agreeing with his core point, that you're just going to make yourself miserable if you're 45+ and you're trying to get a part meant for a 25-year-old. I still think he's generally a dick, though. Jessica Chastain made a completely different point that also seems correct.

I know. I don't remember at all how I found out. But I knew so early it must have been a classmate. I wish I could remember that conversation. My parents later did hand me some book that had illustrations of birds, beeds, and 1970s-era people, but it was way, way too late. By then I had already had Barbie and Ken…

That one little girl is going to tell all of her friends that her father carries his car keys in his vagina.

The sight of those outfits brings back so much teenage angst. Those bodysuits are not friendly to the small boobed. Neither is being 17. I remember worrying about having to wear them (though not sure where I actually would have HAD to wear them - we wore t-shirts in gym class). I miss leg warmers, though.
