I don't mind the war coverage so much, it's just that to look at the History Channel sometimes you'd think war is the only thing to happen in all of human existence, specifically WWII, and even more specifically, only the European theater of WWII. For a bit there it was like nothing happened before or after Hitler.*

It's weird how the History channel somehow became a "man" channel. When they're not showing reality shows that are only connected to history by a thread, speculating that history was controlled by aliens, or showing things about war, they're acting like women have no place in history at all, or at best victims and…

Oh, Paula. When I'm in the kitchen hope and butter are the same thing.

And of course all the bridesmaids dresses will be home made from fair-trade feed bags.

I'll have you know that the day my teacher instructed us on the Fibonacci sequence using m&ms and Skittles was the only time I did well in a math class. There was delicious candy at stake!

Jeez. All these comments about "this is going to be blamed on pro-choicers" and "pro-lifers are going to love this". Way to make it about you.

Actually, the link YOU sent only says the number of girls that are aborted, and says that girls who are born are often neglected. As I said above, this does not compare to burning, BITING, and breaking the neck of an infant. That is, frankly uncommon behavior, even in a society where female offspring are neglected and…

Classically trained ballet dancers at a a Wiz Khalifa show. Every ballet dancer I've met is like a robot once they get into an every-day average dance situation. It confounds me.

OMG this. I room with people like this. Edit them down and some of the shit they say and do is funny as hell, but live with them 24/7 and all you'll want is some nice escapist TV, preferably with dragons who care very little about whether the club promoter they brought home last night is just playing them ( 'cause,…

MmmMmmm, Spencer is hot. It's almost worth the fact that no one on Nickelodeon seems to have any parents anymore.

Ok, so where can I find those white lace up shoes that are like the sweet, sweet love child of brogues and Irish dance ghillies?

It's not his first time dealing with domestic abusers... hopefully this time goes better, eh?

It airs on American TV as well, on the same channel that shows Degrassi, and both seasons are on Netflix. I highly recommend it, because it's pretty addictive.

Actually Violet said that she'd been raped before as a teenager as well.

I was interested in checking out Bunheads specifically because I thought it would be like Dance Academy. Despite having no dancing aptitude I love shows and movies about dancers.

I think that every time I read about how pissed Henry VIII was that he had girls. It was his fault!

Anybody ever heard of Dance Academy? It's a show about Australian ballet students. The casting directors took pains to cast girls who weren't super ballet skinny, despite being dancers, because they didn't want to promote that as an ideal. Still, they have a girl who's a bit thicker than the other ones cast, and while…

Ok, sex selective abortions are one thing, but cigarette burns and bit marks on a once living and breathing baby is a whole different evil ballpark of evil. I understand why you'd add that to the story, but that has to be uncommon and unsupported even in a society where sex selection is common.

Personally, so do I. I can't stand most sports and only really like diving, gymnastics, and ice skating because they're so pretty (but ironically, those are sports people are loathe to call sports because they are judged, not won outright). However, my sister ran track and despite being born with feet so turned in she…

So I guess she won't be happy when she realizes he strapped his dog to the roof of her restaurant.
