How long in between? My last was October, and I have been thinking I'm done. I spotted for a day and was pissed thinking it was back, but it was just a day ...

I’m going to side with the board purely from the perspective of living in this city for double-digit years and seeing how awful and incredibly indulgent the parenting has gotten in Manhattan. Every child is such a special snowflake, an utter genius who can never do anything wrong and can always be reasoned with via

This adds a whole other layer to the idea that the plus sizes of LP’s Target collab were only available online, doesn't it ...

You guys are going to have to create a sub-blog devoted solely to this sick little cult, not only because you have plenty of material, but also because by consolidating it all in one place, we have less chance of stumbling upon yet another story that just makes us want to just lose our shit over how much sicker this

The more stories that come out about the Duggars, the more I can’t believe my mind hasn’t just exploded from the sheer fucked-upness of it all ...

You know, I got mugged on one of the comment boards here several months back when there was some other idiotic Duggar post, and I said frankly this family should have been sterilized long ago. Because aside from how sick all this is, it’s just tremendously irresponsible to bring that many kids into our overcrowded

Sounds like there’s a whiff of Sweet Home Alabama in there as well ...

Wow there is a lot of Photoshop happening here ...

Is there EVER a conversation between talent and producers about how downright annoying it is to sit at home and watch a mostly bleeped performance? I'm guessing no, because it just seems to get worse. Thankfully there were plenty of other viewing options last night when my tolerance ran out.

Sometimes I feel the same about some of the recaps out there, they read like a doctoral thesis. Matt Zoller Seitz on Vulture, for example: He mines every single moment for deep meaning, and for once before all is said and done I would love it if Matt Weiner said, Wow, you guys totally overthought that.

I feel like Peggy’s hair has always been a disaster ...

As someone who freelances largely from home, I’m not ashamed to admit I’ve had the marathon on pretty much non-stop since Wednesday. A colossal waste of time? Probably. But picking up on nuances or even whole scenes I missed the first time around, while also having the benefit of hindsight, has been totally worth it.

My cousin brought her son and daughter to visit me in New York once. The boy, who was 7 or 8 at the time, only ate French fries. I’m not exaggerating; that’s ALL he ate, three freaking meals a day. Every restaurant we went to, we had to make sure first they had fries on the menu. I know they’re pretty much everywhere,

If the Nevada Athletic Commission allows Mayweather to once again, maddeningly, control all aspects of that September fight and/or the rematch you know is coming a year from now, and the media doesn’t boycott it, then you guys have no one to blame but yourselves, bc you let this guy walk all over you, all the way to

Brady and Moynihan weren't married, which of course makes it perfectly acceptable that he left her while she was pregnant to hook up with Gisele Bundchen ...

Gong Li is a freaking goddess. Now I want to blow off work and watch Raise the Red Lantern.

My theory about why we get emotionally invested in this couple and their spawn is quite simple: It’s a fairy tale, one that looks from an outsider’s point of view to be supremely happy, and who doesn’t want to live vicariously through that? We are quite literally surrounded by awful, terrible news 24/7 these days, and

As someone who hates dark meat - don't judge me, Albert! - may I pose a question? Instead of the whole chicken carcass, could I use a couple of whole chicken breasts, with maybe a package of wings that I could easily discard? Because if I were going to make this, I like the suggestions here of removing the chicken

If only he had leaned into it ...

I blame these guys ...
