I don't know why we're making fun of Wearstler instead of Bon Appétite. Why did they choose her to interview? She obviously is not known for her relationship to food. On the other hand, of course she's going to do the interview. She's a model.

Yeah. She's an obviously very broken person. She's like the sort of person Werner Herzog would have been interested in if he had ever been interested in women. I understand the fascination people have with her. But I don't understand how you can be snide.

I've always noticed the opposite. But maybe it's just where I've lived.

Two theories:

OMG. No, I am not a time traveler.

I don't understand? First... where do you live where you can even receive psychoanalysis? I know many people who have had success with psychoanalysis... but they are very rich and don't live in the English speaking world. There aren't very many respected psychoanalysts in the English speaking world. Most people in the…

Realistically... I'm not going to read anything better than this on tonight's open thread. I feel like you just killed my night.

I guess he didn't have enough chicken in his diet. (Anyone?)

You need pillows for a fort, though.

I submit for your consideration:
