SO WRONG. I didn't watch all the seasons while they were happening, so the only song seared onto my brain is the original.

I LOVE him on "Don't Trust the B**** in Apartment 23"!!! And I am devastated that it isn't on anymore. It was so fucking clever and watchable and stylish.
I have been hearing you loud and clear over the whole thread, and I think some of these people are reacting to you in very strange ways. It seems like most children of both genders have the experience of having a woman in their life make their favorite dinner when they've made good grades or done well at something or…
Things about this thread I love: 1) YOU. 2) Foods. 3) Pitch Perfect. I won't even go into the things I do not love because you know, pissing up a rope and whatnot.
Check out Karen Pryor's "Clicker Training For Dogs." Her books are really helpful, and ultimately, you need to be able to get the behavior you ask for out of the dog. People have a problem with horses a lot where they send it to a professional trainer who is effective, but then the owner doesn't bother to learn how…
Past abuse or susceptibility to abuse on her part very well may be part of what's at play. Most people who fall into abusive dynamics don't start off intending to do so, and then they don't know how to stop it. Again, you're the one who knows the situation, so just try to think through a way to approach it. It…
I'm glad you asked about this. The bystander behavior is really common among all sorts of people who see questionable behavior. It is hard to know what to do. The most unobtrusive thing you can do is give the woman (or man—I've definitely intervened on behalf of a very drunk/incapable of consent male friend before)…
HER???
The first time I ever heard of her, she was opening for another band. Totally blew them out of the water. She sang "Smile," a capella, and my best friend and I cried like babies in the middle of a bunch of drunk goons who weren't paying attention. I'm glad we're not the only ones who experience that side effect of…
I had a nasty male bully/tormenter through junior high and high school (until I left for a gifted school where it turns out all my people were). I never knew why he hated me so much. The only thing I ever came up with was that my grades were usually neck and neck with his, or better, and I was willing to take more…
By "smart women get passed over," I meant, "I have been 'the smart one' for most of my life, and have been passed over many times." LOL. There ARE men out there who actually mean it when they say they're into smart women, but it takes forever to figure out which ones those are. Even men who "really like talking to"…
My two cents—any man can SAY he wants to date smart women. But how does he actually behave when he meets a smart woman? The men I've remained friends with for a long time have gotten together with/married real smart women, who fit into the "intellectual, vocal/articulate, at least somewhat ambitious, makes sound…
Oh, crazy. That's a pretty good movie, and the other cover doesn't look like it has anything at all to do with the story. If I was in England looking to watch a movie, and that was among the movies available to watch, I would never recognize it as one I'd already seen, at least not from the title and cover.
THE WHITE GUY DOES NOT ALWAYS HAVE TO BE IN THE FRONT. How does nobody manage to notice/realize this shit until it's already out there? Because there are only wealthy white people at the table during every phase of the process of making that cover? Or only one person the whole way through brings it up and gets shit…
Are we totally sure this wasn't some kind of "standing out in the middle of a ravenous crowd" challenge on "America's Next Top Model"?
Come on, Tara Reid. "Spelling wrong" is your signature Twitter style? COME ON.
This just broke my brain, I think. I. Cannot.
Well you really handled it like a professional! Maybe she just didn't know her alcohol tolerance very well, and had no idea she would ever behave that way. Or is so overwhelmed/uncomfortable with the conference environment that she overcompensated in a bar full of strangers—oddly easy to do if you're outside your…
