and she literally said "no, he has so many Arab friends" - seriously guys? is it really not clear yet that this is no excuse for anything?

you should not watch "My Big Gypsy Wedding" on TLC, then, because that is exactly the way their entire way of life is portrayed. girls getting married at 21, 22 are made out to be "old maids" and I've only seen 1 or 2 girls have jobs (the one I remember had to out herself as a Traveler and quit her job when she got…

I don't think she's wearing makeup. I think she just has crazy long eyelashes, and regular shadows (as opposed to eyeshadow) and the pic is taken with a crappy phone camera. She has on earrings, yes, and two small bracelets. Is that more jewelry than I often see on children? Yep. Is it "loads"? I disagree.

..."with a ten-foot turban"?

However, there are bonus points to anyone who sees something in the cloud and can convince me to see it, too.

oh why oh why did I watch that while eating? I almost choked on my burrito!

I hated the Amanda Show. ugh.

I don't think she did lie about the purpose of her call. It really was for her own personal curiosity ("on a whim") and later she decided to document it and share. That was my understanding from reading this, anyway.

I think she makes a valid point here that "the true experience of racial privilege is that of never having to think about your race", which, when coupled with the fact that all of the men who contacted her on the ad that never mentions race were white, you have a situation where those men are free to assume the woman…

Chipotle also has the "burrito bowl" which is this.

anyone else notice that this video is posted on Gawker titled "Beyonce Strips Down for ‘Best Thing I Never Had’ Music Video" but on Jez it's "New Beyoncé Video Features Elaborate Dream Wedding She Didn’t Have In Real Life"?

I didn't realize there was such a backlash against hosiery beyond the issue of calling a specific and not universal skin color "nude". I can only actually tell she's wearing them in the second photo (and I am so in love with that grey dress.)

you know, for all the looking into this I've done (like I said, the bf is allergic, and I LOVE dogs) I didn't even register that!

I never understood why people think the whole "hypo-allergenic breed" thing is fact. I'll still use it to describe breeds, but I always clarify that NO DOG is actually hypoallergenic.

damn you I just watched it because of your description, and you're right. it just gets funnier. (totally not as gross as I was psyching myself up for)

that is the only episode I've seen. she has short dark hair and totally drinks/smokes during the pregnancy or something (or is glad she didn't smoke because she "didn't feel like it" or something? it was a long time ago, I feel like)

honestly, I read somewhere recently that couples who hug more or something are happier, so I have been going out of my way lately to be more physically affectionate with my SO, and I think it really is working.

I definitely started buying Kotex U because I appreciated those great commercials they had at first with the people shopping for pads and being super straightforward about it.

they definitely have this in kitten (and I believe bunny, but I may just be dreaming that one) form in Japan. or so the internet tells me.
