I misread the headline as ‘Secretive Geek Society’ which I think would have been a better society all round.

Lol because the original version of the quote is super old, super English and super the reverse of that ...

As a 5”7 woman I have clearly been wandering through life blind to my kitchen privilege. Although I did end up washing a lot of dishes at a retreat centre with a sink that was three or four inches lower than standard - I came out with a sore back and a conviction that the designer was clearly a nutter. Is this how…

I watched it and did find it funny but I super hate the (semispoiler) secret baby trope thing. Look, if you get knocked up and the guy is safe to be around then really yes you do need to tell them eventually that they have a kid. Sure, there are always going to be exceptions but Paget Brewster’s character didn’t seem…

Oh it makes my bones itch when people do this. NO YOU CANNOT HAVE THAT WORD IT IS TAKEN.

THIS. I mean, I love that men can connect and empathise with women as a whole by equating them with women that they love personally. But I think what gets lost in the 'my sister, my mother, my daughter, my lover, my friend' concept is that I doubt women experience rape primarily as a sister, mother, daughter, lover,…

The word pussy completely kills my lady boner, as does just about every other euphemism out there. Cunt all the way. It has history behind it. It has a hard C, like cock, and that's symmetrical. It does not have the word pus in it.

I love how the elephants kind of rock back and forth to get up momentum when they stand up; I have days like that. Majestic as fuck, is all I'm saying. You do you, elephant lady.

Yeah, I see that. Sorry if I seemed to be jumping down your throat on it. What a sad story.

I understand that you were trying to point out the contrast between the fact that he overeats while starving his daughter. Would it be less terrible if he was slim and starving her? He also presumably maintained good hygiene while leaving his daughter in her own waste. Should we point out the contrast there?

I'm not sure why this had to be said, but thank you for saying it.

I like how this terrible, terrible person must clearly be fat. Because people are fat because they are lazy and greedy and abusive to their children. Seriously, though, how is the weight of the wife or the father relevant here? The daughter wasn't starved because he ate all the food he would otherwise feed her. I…

For me it was definitely not a conscious decision - oh I won't fight because he might get (more) violent. I just went limp and couldn't move or resist. Like in a dream when you're trying to run but you can't. It took me a long time to really understand that freezing up and going slightly floppy is a survival mechanism…

So this is super-embarrassing but I live in NZ and have, in fact, eaten this pizza. General impression: People who like this sort of thing will find this the sort of thing they like. It's a pizza-hut pizza with sub-par jalapenos on it. The nachos were burnt. If you live in NZ you've either never had good mexican food…
