Even if the employee tried to tell her it was vegetarian, how could she not realize that a cheeseburger is just a hamburger with cheese on it? What did she think the brown thing under the orange thing was?

Ooh, an Olivia Pope doll would be fantastic. Think of the fashion possibilities! They should release a special edition one that also comes with one of her huge wine glasses.

I once had a server grab a gooey caramel blondie off a plate with her bare unwashed hands, drop it into a to-go box, wipe her hands on her pants, and then hand me the box.

Honestly, I’ve actually never had a problem dealing with either. Admittedly , I’ve never had a unusual situation I’ve needed to take care of, but the normal course of business stuff seemed fine.

How do so many people not have passports? What are they going to do if they ever unexpectedly have to flee the country?

Yes, it’s pretty natural to find people in their twenties physically attractive. Youth is aesthetically pleasing. That’s true for both men and women. But you’re right, men are encouraged to value sexual attraction above other factors and to consider it practically their birthright to pursue and attain no matter their…

But so many of those people who don’t want to “arbitrarily limit their pool of potential partners” and are open to the idea of someone substantially younger have no problem setting an arbitrary upper limit. So many profiles are guys that are like 35 setting age ranges that are like 23-35. Why aren’t they open to the…

Edited: Nevermind, I just realized you weren’t talking about Orphan Black.

Yeah, the doctor’s stethoscope remark was stupid and insulting, but I didn’t really think the monologue was much of a talent either.

Wait...what?

As long as we can have Korean BBQ too, I’m in!

Hey now, I think you’re gonna miss out on some crazy fun women that way. :P

Agreed, especially since there was such a huge power differential there. Roberts knew that pictures of her wearing the shirt and her side of the story would get enormous publicity due to her being a huge star. And people would likely be more sympathetic to her with her America’s sweetheart persona. Vera, in contrast,…

Exactly. I definitely have a type. If I’m watching a tv show or movie and a lanky, pale, bookish Brit with killer smile shows up, odds are, I’m going to think he’s hot. That doesn’t mean those are the only people that I will ever find hot.

Does your family have recent European roots? One of my friends whose grandparents are from Germany butters all her sandwiches for the same reason. When we traveled to France together, she was really happy to discover that the ham sandwiches in Paris come buttered. I was less thrilled.

The Guardian, Slate, the Atlantic, Salon, and the Washington Post.

When I used to date online, I would message Asian guys as well as others. However, I didn’t get much response. I do think being black and being overweight were factors in that.

Yes, height can be a burden for men. But so is race. I think that few women can begin to fathom the penalty that Asian American men face in the dating market.

P.S. Is it possible to talk about your physical type without sounding like an asshole? I kind of doubt it.

I’ve been told by too many guys that they never thought they would ever date a black girl, but then they met me. What am I supposed to do with that? Am I supposed to feel special? (I don’t.) Am I supposed to congratulate you on your social awakening? Do you want a cookie?
