This is why Philadelphia never should’ve let the Barnes move downtown.

Omg! Seconded on 12 dates of christmas (so good!) and yes! The best ABC family movies involve time travel, body switching, or knock on the head alternate reality! I love a good alternate reality christmas tale : )

But it’s a secret rectangle! That’s cool, right?

Yeah, but the weird thing is pastrami is usually made with beef, not pork.

David Brooks is the Thomas Kinkade of American social thought.

Don't automatically assume a manufacturer's coupon is going to get you the best price on a given product.

Without making any judgments about the merits of your points, I will make one judgment.

Great, great piece. Only surprised you didn't go further.

Wow. Wow.

Cadences and songs like this and worse abound in the military. I'll never forget the one male sergeant I had who cheerily turned all the songs around and made everybody sing them as women, about men. Cheers to you over a decade later, sergeant.

Agreed - it's a really good article. Thanks, Erin!

I'm sure these songs are quite pervasive, as the article points out (as well as the comments) - these songs are widely known. But for the school to dissolve the entire team when the actions it can prove were engaged in by less than 20% of the team...seems a bit harsh. Maybe everyone on the team knows them and sings…

Do you really think so!? I hope not. I feel like Pope Francis is so deeply loved by so many people, even non-religious people. He's like the best PR move The Catholic Church made since they stopped selling indulgences.

"why don't all women just leave these sexist religions" are making me fume! It's so patronizing!

Christian women are not passive recipients of their religion, they are very much active participants.

Causing damage and having a lack of foresight is pretty universal.

Jezebel kinda has a blind spot as far as religion goes. Which makes sense in that so many of the threats to women's rights in this country (and many others) are draped in religious rhetoric, but the "WE SHOULD ABOLISH RELIGION!!!!!!!!" nonsense that gets floated around here and leaks through some of the articles kinda…

Bang up job making atheism look like an attractive alternative.

Thank you :)
