Haha same. My step-dad has FIVE children, 4 of whom are 12+ years older than I am . I have met 0 of them.

this is hilarious

+1. My stepdad is a Peruvian immigrant and my mom is fluent in Spanish (and Italian and Greek) because she is a god damn language wizard. She never taught me Spanish though, because my stepdad was v concerned about fitting in and speaking / learning English.

I think it was clear - romance languages do not require someone to learn a separate alphabet, while Russian does.

Haha. People who speak Spanish and try to talk shit about others are highly misguided. This country is around 50% Hispanic and pretty much all of us took it in school- while I can’t speak Spanish very well (despite having a fluent mom and stepdad), I sure as hell get the jist of the trash you’re talking, as do many…

I said the same thing but got dismissed for saying it (or Kinja is screwing up.) . I think it’s more like a Rich J. / Sam Smith vendetta.

Can someone explain why we hate her so much? Is she different in some way than any of the other mediocre pop people out there? Or is this like a Rich J. / Sami Smith vendetta thing....

Mel C. was the only one who could sing anyway....

These Rumors????

What are the rumors??

YUP. YYYUUUPPPP.

My comment was dismissed so I’ll ask it again. Why are men employed as guards at women’s prisons? It seems like this shit us bound to happen.

I’m asking this genuinely, as I have almost no insight into the inner workings of prison outside of A & E shows - so please no snarky responses. But - why in the hell are male guards employed at women’s prisons? Is it because there just aren’t enough women in the prison guard market? I mean, if there ever were a…

I respect your opinion but disagree. On one end of the brain wave is “I want to be like Kylie”, on the other end of the brain wave is “If I buy her shit, I’ll be like her.” The in between of all that and the reality that buying a colourpop lippy that she smacks her name won’t make anyone “like Kylie” doesn’t really…

Ha I know! I was just impressed how she was living her life, doing and seeing amazing shit, without the urge to share it with the public at large for oohs and aahs.

good name though!

Totally, I agree! And feel that way about almost everything. An ex-co worker of mine did a 3 month trip across Europe and Asia and didn’t post any pictures on instagram. I found out when I saw her post-trip. I was in awe and vowed to be more like that!

I would say the way she looks was actually the predecessor to the capitalism shit. I think it was more like “I want to look like this hot rich privileged girl, if I buy her products, I will.” Without her hyper sexual image, she doesn’t actually have much to offer to the public, since that is the genesis for her…

This is all really valid but do understand that for a lot of people to actually sit with it, conceptualize it and acknowledge it as truth, they would have to change their entire worldview and/or sense of self. Or admit that their lives are not the happy, fulfilled lives that they project outwardly. That’s why it’s…

I think there are a lot of people on here who are doing the whole “willful ignorance” thing and ignoring the actual context of your comment. Becoming a mother is absolutely not an accomplishment in any way- a good rule of thumb is that if you can do it in the back of a car, drunk off your ass, and not remember how it…
