Seriously, this article is the equivalent of an obnoxious commenter saying, "I can't believe Jezebel is posting about nail polish when people are dying in ___ right now."

And the idea that animals are somehow rationally self-determining entities is woefully misguided. Dennett wrote an interesting article on animal consciousness, which, if you haven't read it, is here:

My main problem with the focus that some* (like the one here, not all obviously) take is so incredibly and blindly privileged. I absolutely respect anyone's choice to be vegetarian or vegan or whatever, but the fact that they don't see how privileged they are to even have that choice is kind of upsetting. There are…

"That show is awkward because there's actually no reason for that character to be Indian."

If they're not the most insecure, they're certainly the most nauseating.

The people who brag the most about how #blessed they are are the most insecure in general, not just in relationships, right? It's the whole "lady doth protest too much" thing.

Hat-Themed wedding.

This sound suspiciously like a straw feminist hoax.

I understand why people would feel like they couldn't talk about this. If we're being honest about feelings here, I honestly felt no sympathy for the women above. To be honest, I saved all my sympathy for their children.

I wonder sometimes how many times patients *feel* that the doctor is judging them, and how often the doctor actually *is* judging them?

Unlock double wedding xp with purchases of Mtn Dew and Doritos.

Like a houseguest. Marvelous at first and full of possibilities, but if left unsupervised for too long, they can be a real pain.

I have been watching the Simpsons my entire life...my son is named Collin after Lisa's boyfriend in the Simpsons movie. The show wasn't always about being funny. Each episode is a story. I think it has grown, with characters you grow a fondness to and watch develop without growing up. People who want stupid comedy…

Nothing inspires confidence in a business like a name with multiple x's in it.

"We moved out here for the rural nature, the quiet aspects of it, the open space,"

It's a 7-11. Just eat them in the back aisle and put the empty bag back. Wash it down with a bottle of Mountain Dew and put the empty back. Walk out while looking the cashier directly in the eyes the whole time.

It's basically a "family" photograph of the whitest chicks ever.
