Jesus - talk about a showdown with no winners. It's like trying to trying to pick a rooting interest in the Syrian conflict.

According to the Hollywood Reporter, he was nixed as someone's +1 in the audience. (An audience of 5,000, incidentally.) Awards/visibility were never at issue.

The GLAAD statement seems like a classic "non-denial denial."

We don't find you annoying, but we do get perplexed how a 50/50 gender ratio gets turned into "a roomful of huge men, and me qua lone female".

Yeah... hooray for poor quantitative and information-assimilation skills!!

Serious gyms tend to have some complex — and interesting — power dynamics. All this boy vs girl stuff is marginally interesting, but give me the ones w/a big sign that says "Crewbies — stay the #$^ out of the racks" or "Suck at your sport? Don't TOUCH the stereo."

The Janet Reno shot in the center is a masterful touch.

Cool study. I wanna see the results of a follow-up version where the portraits include Margaret Thatcher, Condi Rice and even some historical women.

Nice to see there's an all-night public library somewhere... or did you find a bus station with free wireless?

Do I even know you? Do you even go here? Ugh, go aaawayyy...

obviously an analogy that worked better w/a non-japan expert...

You've bitched at like 95 strangers on the Internet today alone...

I found "faggot" entertaining because it was sooo far divorced from the classic/slur usage. She's aiming it internally (i.e., within group) at girls for being unwilling to talk to boys... struck me as a deft deployment of a loaded term.

Really close. I'm YOUR mom... and I'm very, very disappointed in you. Why can't you bring home a nice girl like this sometime?

Oh please. She writes better than 90% of undergrads at decent schools, has a ballsy personality, and would be a great fit for more than a few high-paid gigs for recent grads.

Hangover likely true.

It's especially good to read all these grudging comments that are like, "Well [comment x] is actually really funny" ...and everyone is talking about a different comment.

Young woman takes action to avoid street harassment - gets criticized on Jezebel.

Count among the folks more offended by the lawsuit than by some nitwit hitting a Korean person with a dusty slur against West Coast Chinese immigrants.

Tell your folks that (non-Franzia) drinks are on me if we ever cross paths...
