Dumb, moronic, idiotic, foolish, spurious, I can keep going. My favorite is one I recently learned Theodore Roosevelt used to describe William Howard Taft: “Puzzlewit”.

Speaking as a member of the community-I kind of agree. I mean, I really wish that she would have transitioned and then disappeared into obscurity, but now she’s actively damaging to trans people. It’s foul, as is she.
Justine was a dear friend who was horrified about police violence and committed to making the world better in every way. She had just picked out her wedding dress last week and was so excited to show me. She was texting me trying to get me to go to “dance church” with her on sunday morning, but instead I went to a…
If the son’s a twit, you must acquit!
Welp, man or woman, Zoidberg’s kind of an asshole.
It effects women, and something people desperate to feel superior to other people can hook their misogyny on, so they are going to be outraged that the women (brides, bridesmaids, flower girls - likely some of these folks bought all the dresses from them) are spending money on something they dont value.
If you spend 3500 on a vacation that you would take once and get robbed, fuck you. No sympathy.
Or cars with custom painted brake calipers which is a thing I have totally seen on Jalopnik.
So you’d just take it in your stride if someone ripped you off to the tune of $3K+? And you don’t consider it worthy of any public comment at all that this has happened to probably thousands of people across a chain of 61 stores? Look, my wedding dress was $150 and I think this shit is insane, but that’s some crazy…
I mean, I think it’s incredibly stupid to pay $600 for an iPhone, but I still don’t think it would be okay for Apple to take orders and then not fulfill them.
Fuck the institution of marriage. If you bought anything from any store for any reason and the store just up and closed and didn’t give you the product you paid for, you would be upset too. The fact that these are wedding dresses which can cost a lot in time and money, is just icing on the overpriced fucked up cake.
I’m quite sure you buy something that someone else thinks you pay too much for and you’d be pissed as hell if you paid and that item never arrived.
Or like.... Spend your money on what you want? I mean I’m not comfortable spending $1000 on a dress, but if I spent $1000 to stay in a hotel for 10 days and then it closed I’d still be out the money. There are always “better” things to spend money on.
I got married last year and I can’t imagine how much I would be losing my shit.
I didn’t get to have that party and you know what? I am really sorry we didn’t. I wish our families had come to wish us well and show their love for us. I wish I had professional pictures of us with our parents and grandparents, especially since our grandparents have since passed and my mom and his dad now have cancer…
Do you also judge everyone who eats in nice restaurants? You can only eat that meal once and afterwards you don’t even have an item you can turn into something else like a christening gown or a quilt.
Little known fact that one of the primary missions of the KGB was to find homes for Russian orphans.
“Great evening with President @EmmanuelMacron & Mrs. Macron. Went to Eiffel Tower for dinner. Relationship with France stronger than ever.”
