Yup. While I appreciate her confessional and have felt the same way too many times, this essay comes across as a blatant plea for sympathy and compliments. It’s the same thing my middle school students do: “This essay totally sucks, and I totally suck by extension, right? [Please tell me I’m awesome and do not suck!]”

While I admire her honesty, doesn’t she have a BFF to vent to? And wouldn’t that BFF tell her, “Maybe keep some of this shit between us, huh?”

Honestly, it was just so poorly conceived and executed. That's what annoys me the most. The t-shirt, meeting the parents, the wholesome PDA, all within 3 weeks of "dating" or some such nonsense. It was like a 12 year old's fan fiction story written in a Lisa Frank notebook come to life. "And then we had the best party…

It took him into James Franco/Shia LaBeouf territory which made me sad.

Hey, for once they are giving a woman credit for a man’s accomplishment. Yay for equality?

You just hit on what it was that irked me about them. Tom is something of a prestige actor. It would be like Colin Firth dating Britney Spears in the late ‘90's.

Tom as gone on record saying he thinks/expects Bryan Cranston will win. But sure. Source From Hollywood Life is more reliable.

Oh, I think, quite frankly, that he’s going to be B-list at best (and I think he’s B-minus at the moment based on “Night Manager” “I saw the light” and Taylor) in this country forever. I’m serious. He’s ageing, he’s not a heartthrob, he hasn’t even helmed a comic book movie by himself or had a huge undeniable hit TV…

Maybe, and let me just throw this CRAZY idea out there, he wanted to date fuck someone he liked, and they both took it too far to get attention.

I think people and some of his colleagues will laugh at him for another year.

I listened to an episode of nerdist he was on a few years ago. He is very thirsty. You kind of got the sense that he had a list of things he wanted to touch on to put his most charming foot forward and was trying to set up Chris Hardwick* to ask or say certain things and Hardwick wasn’t hitting them all so a few of…

But, too be clear, he was by far the bigger loser, because the public expects this kind of behavior from Taylor. Tom’s entrance into this circus was bizarre. He’s going to take a bigger hit from this than she is. Her PR team is next-level.

I don’t think either of them got what they wanted out of this media circus, honestly. I have to imagine whatever they had planned got thwarted when Kim released all the receipts and Tay had to go into hiding. Hiddleswift (AKA Lord and Taylor) stopped being fun right around then.

She gave him some keen insight into what it was like to manage a hotel. How to slap the ice machine like The Fonz so it would start working again, make the sure the eggs don’t get cold for the continental breakfast, how to avoid a strike & so on.

I’m still just so puzzled by the entire T-Swiz/Hiddleston thing. I went from “Huh. I wouldn’t have pegged him as fame thirsty but I guess I was wrong” to now just straight up wondering what his agenda was. Because whatever it was, this relationship definitely didn’t further it.

Swift could do a cover of the old Beck hit, "Loser." I would LOVE that.

Even though it’s a huge team effort, fans couldn’t help but wonder if he would end up thanking his former flame if he won — since T-Swift could have been a source of inspiration.

I want Hiddleston to lose because Taylor’s lyrical blind item will be that much better if he does. Then when she calls it “Loser” or “My Emmy Nominated Ex” it’ll be an extra kick in the teeth.

Mel B, even if that’s true, it’s not very nice.

I feel the same. Every night 2-4 of our kitties will sleep on me. When I’m buried, I want the ashes of our kitties (that have passed) in their spots on my lap, or with my arm around them. I want to be like one of those Pharaohs (though I won’t entomb any living ones with me, just all those that have gone before). But…
