“I was thinking of the families of the innocent victims of the terrorist attacks in Paris”

And Syrian refugees aren’t also victims of terrorism? I guess it’s easier to think of the Paris attack victims since they aren’t knocking down America’s door attempting to get to safety. I wonder how open and welcoming the US…

“Look, the only reason I got this job is because I'm an older white guy who looks like a mayor or possibly congressman. I have no actual qualifications, like, at all."

I, too, like to keep the shitty things I say private.

I thought republicans were the “Christian, moral responsibility, religious freedom” party? Well, no Christian would turn away innocent defenseless people, so they aren’t that. Syrian refugees are FLEEING FROM ISIS and had nothing to do with the attacks so republicans aren’t that either. These innocent people just…

“I’m sorry I got caught.”

In the immortal words of Rhett Butler, “You’re like the thief who isn’t sorry that he stole, but very, very sorry that he got caught.”

When Scalia said the Korematsu decision was in error, he also said, “you are kidding yourself if you think the same thing will not happen again.” Now it’s clear there are political leaders who will jump at the chance to do so. It didn’t even take an attack on U.S. soil this time.

He’s had a long and storied career. I loved him in The Ring.

I think I was in junior high when The Birdcage came out. My bff and I saw it and immediately became obsessed. I remember she wrote a note to me highlighting all of our favorite parts and passed it to me in class. It’s so special when a 13 year old has a friend just as weird as them and instead of passing notes about…

The Birdcage was my favorite movie growing up. I know a lot of little girls grow up wanting a fairy tale romance with price charming, but I just wanted to find a big bear of a man who’d let me headline at our nightclub and develop an elaborate, aspirin scrubbing scheme to help me and everyone around me cope with my…

Ditto to 1 & 2. I was telling someone yesterday that growing up, my lil sis was what we used to call a tomboy but would now be a regular girl who plays sports and likes the outdoors. I like this new human phase.

I remember when she was starting out and it was a huge plus for her that he was her famous brother in law. Good times.

I think a few of them chose to leave. I’m not sure about Mark but I know EGR resigned to take a role elsewhere. I know Natasha got the axe but tbh I have never been a fan of hers (plus her contributions seemed super infrequent anyway). I AM sad about Jane and Millihelen though!

David Spade also did Tampax commercials when he was younger.

this is blowing. my. MIND.

That makes perfect sense. She makes adorable bags just the right size so you could pop him in and carry him around.

100% true. Her husband is Andy Spade, who is David Spade’s brother.

Yeah, I’m reading his book and he dropped that little tidbit, but his writing style is such that I couldn’t tell if he was being serious or not, so I had to look it up and dang if it wasn’t true.

What the actual fuck?! What criteria was used for these layoffs? Page views? I read and love virtually all of Mark’s articles, and it looks like a lot of others here do, too. How is it fair that adorable, hilarious Mark gets the door and darling Jia - one of the rudest, most unprofessional Gawker Media staff members…

Yeah, I need my BCO, it is an Old Testement style abomination that Kitchenette is shutting down. I mean it though I will leave, there will be nothing here for me. I give zero fucks about the Kardashians and thought that they were a race of aliens from Star Trek but it was Mark who set me right. I still give zero fucks…
