Having only read the headline: Oh? So have the players’ wives all been given the responsibility/credit for the winning teams’ successes?

So... if I start sobbing loudly right now, will one of you come over and make me some pasta?

No ,wait, hold up. Journalism and documentaries are two different things. Documentaries are not supposed to be fair and unbiased. Documentarians are under no ethical obligation to be accurate and cite their sources. Do not confuse filmmaking with journalism. I know it’s difficult because cable news looks a lot like…

There’s a church down the street from me that has a van — I guess they go around and pick people up for church? Anyway, they have a slogan on their van to advertise their church:

I started pole dancing at age 40 and I’m here to tell you, she’s remarkable. What’s the most remarkable to me is that after decades of competing at elite-level gymnastics, she has not suffered any debilitating, life-changing injuries. How in the FUCK did she make it this far without blowing out a knee or something,…

Unanswered questions:

The thing is, TV ratings are determined by Neilsen. I’ve been a “Neilsen family.” What happens is the ratings company sends you a little diary and you write down what you watched every time you watch TV. You even account for times when the TV is on but nobody’s watching. What they don’t account for is surfing away to…

I’m confused. When you say the guy “shot this girl in the back,” did you mean the 17-year-old daughter? Or are you referring to the mom, a grown-ass woman, as a “girl”? Because the way you wrote that, I can’t figure out who was shot.

My sistah in tiny-but-fierce. :: high five ::

I’m tiny and “waiflike” I suppose. I dunno about the waiflike part, but I can assure all of you that people tend to infantilize and patronize tiny women. We look like little girls and are often treated as such. Show some emotional sensitivity while you’re out there walking around being tiny and you might as well be…

I’m a pacifist and, in general, completely against solving problems with violence.

Dominique Moceanu has hinted at it a few times, in HBO’s Real Sports interviews, which, to be fair, focus mostly on her long-lost older sister, who was born without legs but who also does gymnastics and some cool circus stuff too, like aerial silks. She implies that Bela Karolyi was a verbally abusive bully, but I…

I just went to the Indy 500 and that was pretty good. Also, the Indy Star is a very good paper. Apparently. Go Indy!

So is there a list somewhere? Is Leonard Peltier on it?

Personally, I’m terrified of horses. But I have cousins who own and ride horses. Also, poor posture is from weakened core muscles, not lack of a bra. (That’s the dumbest goddamn thing I’ve read all week and I’m an editor — I read for a living.) So, every equestrian I’ve ever met has been rock solid ripped, including…

I couldn’t agree more; Crystal Pepsi was pretty fucking stupid.

Aaand now you understand why exmormons are so pissed off.

Well, the one statement I take issue with is “flouting the tenets of the god they claim to serve.” You are mistaken. The doctrine clearly states that polygamy is exactly one of the tenets, and that women are property. The bible advocates rape in several places.

I don’t have a family, and I don’t mind leadership roles, but it’s still a patriarchal system. I refuse to put in 100 hours a week at work. I simply will not do it. No job is worth that. I’m not going to be lying on my deathbed wishing I’d spent more time in some shitty office making a blue fortune for some other…

I encountered someone on a message board forum who constantly referred to GLBTQ people as “gays.” The gays this and the gays that. It bothered me but I couldn’t put my finger on it. I turned to my BFF who also happens to be a gay man and asked him if that would bother him, being referred to as “a gay.” He said of…
