I just find it so strange that nowhere in this piece do you mention that Bertinelli was married to Eddie Van Halen. For twenty-six years. I mean yes, "everyone" knows that, but next time, please think of the children so we can ward off a million "who?" comments. The internet is already cluttered with "What's Van…

"Forgive me and truly understand that I am in no way shape or form a sexist and I am a huge fan of Mo'ne. She was quite an inspiration."

So from this part: " Here's a quick reality check: everyone — from Bill Clinton to your grandfather to every Greek organization in the nation does the same old stuff, just as they have been for the entirety of human history."

Oh, my bad.

This panel make-up is part of what is wrong with modern journalism. Some producer was thinking, 'for my panel on the N word, I need a balanced approach, so I definitely need to include a white dude to make it legitimate.' No.

The fact that the dumb white guy's last name was "Ferguson" pretty much proves that the universe has an inherent drive towards irony.

Barring a few real exceptions of astonishing intelligence, the…

as a too-old-to-throw-tantrums child, 8 or 9, after a day hiking, Dad would not let me bring my walking stick home in the car. My filthy, rotting, branch I'd been using as a walking stick. Complete meltdown, screaming sobbing in the mud;

Jeb Bush's brother Marvin screwed up the photography at his wedding, so there's only one kind of unflattering picture of their whole day in existence. It's become shorthand for "person who singlehandedly bungled a wedding."

The only people that are "shocked" that this is happening in 2015 are white people. The rest of us are like "eh, it's just another [insert day of the week]."

It's time for Greek life to go. It has simply run its course in this country.

I just have to admire both the perseverance and courage of Emma and her boyfriend. I don't know if I could have waited that long for McDonald's, nor do I know if I would have had the bravery to eat something prepared by someone so clearly on another plane of existence.
