I think you are confusing "respect" with "basic dignity".

the best part of his explanation is that it kind of boils down to people telling him to find someone else creative or with common interests but have you seen kim's ass? I know he said some sweet things to but that's totally what I got out of it

I do not believe people are worthy of respect just because they are people.

I don't care if she makes a sex tape (who hasn't?). I don't even care if she releases it. But I don't have to respect her branding capabilities when it's all rooted in this one stupid thing. Well that combined with daddy's money from defending rich scum bags.

She became famous for having sex on video and then "releasing" it and pretending it was an accident. Yeah, not really worth my respect. Really?

I have to say, one of the more difficult things about forming new friendships for me has been that these new friends only know me post-obesity. I met a very nice group of ladies at a pottery class (still can't believe I'm taking a pottery class) and they asked me to hang out yesterday. I like them but they seem to…

It's my 24th birthday today! Been decent-ish. Gonna sit here tonight and drink and play video games

Devil cramps have me wondering just how bad pregnancy could be if it gets rid of the pain and the mess for nine months. Jezzies who've reproduced: did you notice/enjoy not menstruating once you found out you were pregnant? Were the symptoms of any trimester bad enough to not make up for not cramping/vomiting/losing…

1940s. I've never seen it, I just know those clothes are 40s. It's what I do.

The store owner is the one who should be arrested. That dress is a far more grievous crime than mere thievery.

Have you two.... seen Portlandia?

I work at a small museum that specializes in clothing display as a curator, and it totally is.
Absolute shit.

I call bullshit on this story. I, too, live in Southern California, and we've also stopped watering our lawn to conserve water. Our intention is to put in garden boxes/ xeriscape in the fall. But guess what? My ass has been out there all weekend, pulling weeds, trimming hedges, sweeping the front porch, and…

This! Why is everything so staged strangely? The Salem and Portlandia displays look like they were kind of just shoved into a corner. It's fairly small museum so maybe they had spacing issues?

I mean, I'm not a curator or some kind of costume design aficionado but, this is a real shit display.

" English men in my experience are much more polite, interesting, and genuine than American men." This is incredibly hilarious and lacking in any kind of basis. You did say "in my experience," but it's pretty clearly an unreasonable generalization.

This poll is weird. Not all Christians are evangelical. What about your middle of the road type Protestants - Lutherans, Presbyterians, etc.?

Frankly, I'm never surprised when atheists are low ranked in anything, because except for my friend Geoff, even the friendly ones tend to be smug little shits with no respect for anyone else's culture or beliefs.

To be fair to religious America, we atheists don't do ourselves any favors with this "we should do away with religion" nonsense.

I think it's interesting that Jews rated so high because I don't think many people understand Judaism. Hell, in a store I worked at a few years ago, I made myself responsible for taking care of the Hanukkah menorah because none of the other employees knew how it worked. Before I came, they just left all the candles on…
