I too love Dave, and I like your pick-up artist theory — but unfortunately I don't buy it. His style did change about 10-15 years ago (maybe around the Carmen era?) and he shifted from raw primal sexy to creepily slick, like an over-waxed eyebrow. I'm hoping it's too much eyeliner and ridiculous facial hair

Oh, come on. I don't particularly like Lena Dunham; she has done and said a lot of problematic shit, but this is not at all what she is saying. She is taking the common tropes people use to blame victims for their assaults ("Why didn't she go to the police? Why didn't she tell anyone?" and so on) and saying that how a

No. There is no duty to rescue in U.S. criminal law unless you placed the person in danger and/or isolated them from getting any kind of help.

Who knew Iggy Azalea read and commented on Jezebel? Amazing.

'Rear of 2014' award undoubtedly goes to Kim Kardashian, after her posterior exploded all over the internet last month

Why do you assume that the ghost is there to talk to you about your problems? They will want to talk to you, though. In my experience, the spirits are the narcissistic ones. The vast majority are no peaches, that's very true. Some of them are totally caught up in their last moments, some are angry, and some are

I think Teresa Giudice's approach to being close to going to jail seems fine. Not like a temper tantrum is going to help at this point.

I guess if I did believe in spirits trapped and wandering earth, I would also believe that they were insanely bored. Were I stuck floating alone through the ether, I would jump at the chance to talk to a 15-year-old about his/her crush or whatever.

It's great to highlight your individuality, but I don't think you can really determine how interesting people are from their taste. Don't you know people who like Zumba and Frozen but manage to be super interesting in spite of all that? And, conversely, don't you know people who have tons of cool, eclectic interests -

Jimmy doesn't have a plate to hand you. HE DOESN'T HAVE A PLATE.

If McD's really wanted to make money, they'd extend the availability of their breakfast menu until at least 12 p.m., if not all day a la Jack in the Box. Damn it feels good to get a breakfast burrito at 4 p.m. on a Saturday. (Don't judge, you've all been there. )

Yeknow, I always say this: Do you want to be judged based on who you were at 18/16/14? I know I don't. I was a raving conservative in high school. I'd be mortified if people thought that was still me.

No, no they should not. Enthusiasts of either should mention it immediately to ensure that they only end up paired with their own rather than attempting to make unhappy conversions.

Had my ex-wife show up in my "suggested Matches for you" box. I messaged her and said "I didn't know you liked piña coladas". She didn't find the humor in that.

I'm actually pretty impressed by the last one, that he understood what was being said and responded coherently, not just posting "lol" or emoticons in confusion.

Aaron Sorkin, I assume you will only listen to YOURSELF so I have some advice for you from you:

That pastor seems.....surprisingly level-headed and rational. That was a nice surprise.

Penguin suit? I didn't see any penguin suit.
