What on earth.... why? Just why?

Not to mention that this is hitting back at him not for the oppression of the NK people but for throwing a tantrum about a crappy American movie. How brave, to stand up in defense of the clearly powerless and oppressed American film industry. At an awards show honoring said industry.

Watched it on Netflix, kinda hilarious/awful.

Which there would be more of if there were more diversity. Different perspectives and all that.

As a journalist it is on her to make sure she gets her facts right. I agree that getting up in arms about this isn't necessarily the best tack as it seems an honest mistake rather than an intentional misgendering... but still, it's her job to get this stuff right.

Can we keep in mind that this happened in France, where they *also* have the right to free speech? People keep talking about how "In America we have the right to make jokes.

You're right, you'll find a lot of people saying the same thing - they support their team, not the NFL. But you can't separate the two. Your team is one brand of the corporate entity that is the NFL. It'd be like saying I don't support the Coca-Cola company, I just really love sprite. You can't buy sprite without…

Totally agree! I want more Allen stories. Never ending Allen stories. Allen sounds utterly delightful and Mark is a nutcase and together they are bizarrely adorable. Allen + Mark 5ever. They're my favorite couple in the world.

I think I out-creeped you...

They did it at 2/3 weddings I went to in the last year. I bet my future SIL will do it too.

Came here to say this. This article is kinda needlessly snarky. They put the baby on their to be cute and get people to read the magazine.

That's because 90% of the people I have initial interaction with, I decide I don't want to go on to meet in person. The other 10%, we advance to first date status. The expectation is that you'll meet people in person, but not ALL of them. I don't want to meet every jack ass who states on his profile how he's 'tired of…

People may say you're nitpicking but I agree with you entirely. We erase people's achievements when we attribute them to miracles or divine intervention.

Well, yeah, you're right... all I'm saying is that it's not implausible that this guy was thinking of this for a long while before he did it. Hell, it's not even implausible that he had doubts even before the engagement but did it because that's what you're supposed to do.

He did the right thing by calling it off and…

Jumping in to say it's pretty likely that these thoughts had been going on with him for a while... you don't just wake up one day, say "I don't love my fiancé" and instantly call off your wedding. There's usually some wrestling with yourself that happens first, some rationalizing, etc. I would venture a guess that…

Would you still have donated it had you not gotten divorced? Why not donate it immediately following your wedding, since you don't need it anymore and it would just be going to waste in storage somewhere?

Seriously, good for you for donating your dress but don't go holier than thou on this young woman for not doing the…

It's no more wasteful than what most people do: wear it once and keep it in the attic forevermore. Donating it would have been a nice gesture, as it would be for any woman to donate her worn only once wedding dress. But sounds like she needed this release, so more power to her.

Edit: typo

I did the same thing with unpopular pokemon. Like, really. I felt for psyduck 'cause he was always traded away. So I had a collection of psyduck pokemon cards. I was a nerdy little weirdo.

Yeah, I'm not talking about committed relationships here - I'm talking if I'm casually dating or guy or hell if I have a one night stand and I become pregnant through that. If I decide to keep the kid, and it's not what he wants, I think he should be able to back out.

Thank you! I just believe that men also deserve to determine when and how they'll become parents. I don't believe that they should have a legal say in whether a pregnancy is terminated or not, but I do think that if a woman decides to keep her child and that is not what the man would have wanted that in an ideal world…

At the moment I think it's a good law. Not necessarily 'fair' per se but good in outcome. I'd prefer to strive for that secure social safety net, and for a system that doesn't still necessitate men taking financial responsibility because women's work both inside and outside the home is devalued. I know I'm getting…
