I can tolerate Piper and her wacky white girl antics as the price to pay for the rest of this show (especially if her stories are siloed a bit like in the S3), but OMG get Laura Prepon and her intensely unbelievable eyebrows off this show, forever.

well, they’re not his original teeth (I missed the crooked smile of his youth, but understand why he went with straighter teeth later)

I too watched every season through Hawaii, religiously. I even had (have? somewhere?) a book about the 1st 5 seasons. San Francisco, London and Miami are probably my favorites.

ok, I just have to say: JLo looks incredible here. That retro glam look really works for her.

Totally. My poor hypothetical kids - they wouldn’t get a smart phone until they had a job and paid for it themselves. Kids just don’t need a handheld computer.

I used to go to my little independent gym regularly - 2-3 times a week the first couple years, and even in 2014 I made sure to go at least 2x month (which felt like the equivalent of taking a class somewhere else. But in 2015? I only went a handful of times ALL YEAR.

I hate this lady, but moreso I hate the fact that there is a market for such a thing as a “YouTube talent manager”.

Carly Rae looks ready to audition for the role of early ‘80s Joan Jett (lipstick lesbian version)

Man, I am SO GLAD there were not cell phones when I was in school (any level). I didn’t even have an answering machine in college - there was a phone for every hall, not each room, so you had to reply on someone on the hall taking a message. I probably talk to my mom every week or two now, with a few texts in there,…

There’s also something creepy about the subtle “accidental pregnancies may make some childfree-by-choicers someone embrace motherhood” message. Sure, it’s true for some, but overall, isn’t giving women as much control over what happens to their body as possible for the best?

I never understand the “ew” vibe on Jez when it comes to AirBnB or Couchsurfing. Both are great ways to travel, and often provide a better experience than staying in a hotel or a hostel.

No! NoNoNoNoNoNO

ugh, why does this even matter?

this is still not gonna get me to watch The Voice (so awesome in S1, pretty good in S2, now pretty much like Idol)

This. I bought the book because it looked quite promising. It was pure dreck, and the girl at the center of it was an insufferable, over-sensitive fool who blamed everyone except herself for anything and everything. IIRC, one of the people who was named on the tapes landed there for not saying hello to her one…

good point - and entirely plausible

yeah - not renewing a contract a week before major surgery is perhaps the zenith in shitty moves, but I don’t see how the school’s reasons for doing it wouldn’t have been foreseen. Super strict christians aren’t known for their tolerance for reasonable debate about their idiotic rules, and they are pretty upfront…

And if the boss immediately shuts it down as inappropriate and/or fires her for it, the lesson learned is to knock that shit off. The boss has all the power in this dynamic. I don’t care what the genders of either party is - whoever has the power is responsible for maintaining the boundaries (and for giving…

ok, I’ll take the bait. How about: it will give clear boundaries so that the older, powerful men can exercise a little of that power and cease to respond to the temptations of those biology-addled young interns.

I can’t stand Rosie O’Donnell, and I can believe she was horrible to work with/for, but everything in this article makes me suspect that producer was justly fired.
