@electric barbarella is a pretty hate machine: WHERE ARE YOU? Because South Australia (where I live) gets pretty cold. Not snowing cold, but quite arcticly freezing. And yet, nothing here is designed to cope with freezing days. We don't really have insulation or heating and our winter clothes are completely dumb. I

@made_line: Wait, I wanted to show off my new skillz but I'm incompetent obvs. Let's try that again.

@KateSmash: Oh no, I couldn't. I know, because I've done it. BAD IDEA!

I'm in awe of people who spend hours putting these things together. I can't even make a gif without wanting to kill myself.

@jule_b_sorry: She should know better. But honestly, how many times can she apologise? She's damned if she does and damned if she doesn't. I'm not really sure what it is, at this point, that people want from her.

What I wouldn't give to be able to pull off this look.. Curse you, sturdy Scottish genetics!

I still feel this is a failure on the part of her editors and not Maura Kelly. Sure, she wrote a silly and offensive piece, but it's qualified by the fact that she should never have been asked to write it in the first place - particularly given her open history with an eating disorder.

@slaterish: Agreed. A 6th grader navigating life is very different to a fully grown man earning shitloads of money out of the exploitation of women.

@daringdropout: To be fair, I think Susan Boyle has learning difficulties. Perhaps she finds it easier to work with an allowance.

@ninles: "And Justin Long should be glad that he HAS all those "plain" idols to look up to. Who on earth do female actors have to look up to in romantic comedies?"

@bluebears: Yeah, and sorry but 'no one should be made to feel bad about themselves'? Except 'grenades', obviously.

@cccmells: Exactly. Apart from the offensive thrust of the post, it's just not particularly well written. There are lots of writers out there who would love a Marie Claire gig, and actually have the mad skillz to do it.

For me, the more concerning thing about this post is how it was approved by her editor. It's obviously a pile of poorly written tosh with excessive exclamation marks (We're promoting OBESTIY!) but it was assigned to someone who admitted they had never seen the show and has likely been quite open with her colleagues

@audreyapple: Sorry, that should have read Elijah Wood IN Wilfred.

Evan as Janis Joplin would be killer. She's got an excellent presence on screen. I think she'd nail it.

Ooh, it just occurred to me that I log in with facebook. Does that mean I don't have a valid email address? How do I organise that, anyway?
