Larry King sitting there and laughing along and helping him finish his sentences is disturbing and creepy as hell. And it's not like I think he's ever done it himself, but to know the MO?! To go back and forth about how much is enough?! Like, Jesus, do guys sit around swapping best practices over beers or during game

The sad thing is, I think this is very, very common. I think that there are many men, and even women, who think behaviour like that is just normal. And this is what we mean when we talk about rape culture. Thank god it is hopefully starting to shift.

Rhode Island googled Woody Allen the most because the creep was here filming a movie all summer. I drove past him when he was filming at a cafe in my neighborhood and he looked like just like a slimy, white, cave-dwelling worm. He was squatting, and he was all the same sickly-pale color. I basically had to whisper to

Oh dear. I read "bonded" as "boned," and got VERY confused and grossed out.

I thought it said Ryan Lochte at first and was not surprised.

and that while as a society we "allow kids to be kids" that this same kind of tolerance isn't extended to adults.

I like to think the truly rebellious thing is choosing the name "John" in a family of Maddox, Pax, Zaharah, Vivienne, and Knox. Maybe in time John will learn to conform and at least go for Xavier or Max. Boys names have Xs in the Jolie-Pitt family!

I just want to go home and snoogle my cat and cry and nod.

Why does Cooper have billing above Adams when Adams was a main character and Cooper merely a supporting role? (at least by the Academy's standards).

That explanation is minorly bullshit because Adams was the second lead character not Cooper. She was on screen longer than him and was nominated for a Best Actress to his Best Supporting Actor nomination. But that's hollywood women get less screen time even when they are the main character of a film, women get lower

This is what is irritating me- why couldn't they ask him how he feels about being paid more than a female co-star? That seems like a reasonable question, since they are such a big *news organization.*

If Bradley Cooper said something about the pay disparity, it would just make him the More Sexy-iest Man Alive. If Amy Adams said something about the pay disparity, she could be in a cat fight! Speaking out! Diva behavior!

The sexist headline potential is virtually endless when a lady has something to say about

Best picture ever or best picture ever?:

My hubs kept a couple of the original furbies on a shelf in his office at work, and was asked to take them home because they were freaking out the cleaning staff at night.

ONCE, my mom got wrapped up in the Gift Of The Year thing. Seeing my, uh, INTENSE mother get into a screaming match over a Cabbage Patch Doll in the toy aisle of the Teay's Valley, WV Big Lots was the gift that keeps on giving. She still gets embarrassed when we tell that story.

Aw man, I also got a furby one year. Except I really really didn't want a furby, cuz I found them creepy. And I knew how expensive they were so I felt this overwhelming sense of guilt and tried so hard to act like I was super excited about the furby. The thing used to talk in the middle of the night. I'm not sure if

Ah, I got a Furby that I didn't want. For my twelfth birthday. I kept looking at the wrapped box, trying to guess what it could be. When I finally got to open it, my mom said, "I knew you'd never guess!"

I wanted a Furby but ended up being glad I never got one. I will never, ever in a million years understand how during the entire process of producing the Furby... no one thought an "off" switch would be a good idea.

I have a similar story. We didn't watch much TV in my house, so I was a little behind the kid pop culture curve. By the time I decided I wanted a Rainbow Brite doll, they were no longer in stores, and again, this was pre-Craigslist/eBay. My mom tried to interest me in something more contemporary and available, but

I think that's where all of our furbies eventually ended up.
