It needs a nickname, for sure. I predict he ends up being Stan (only in my dreams where a Kardashian grows up to be middle management at an Inland Empire office furniture distributor. I have strange dreams)

Well, you know Bobby, if you can’t handle me at my worst, you don’t deserve me at my best. So I’m just going to love, laugh, and learn from this, and just keep calm and carry on, because you can’t start the next chapter of your life if you keep re-reading the last one.

Oh, the “Sixteen and Pregnant” interior design look, found in the background of every reality show featuring poor life decisions!

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAS. More excuses to buy pastel watercolored scarves and sheets.

The book this movie is based on (same name) is one of the best things I’ve read in a long while. I used to rep nonfiction writing, and it’s just about the gold standard for pop history writing. Gripping, informative, and thought-provoking.

What’s your favorite unexplained mystery/what’s your theory to explain it? (Mine: The Voynich Manuscript/it’s a phonetic transcription of an obscure language)

On the fillers point: What’s the actual difference in how fillers versus botox make your face look? Tell me all about fillers!

Peggy’s conference is in Sioux Falls.

Why would they choose an actual, regular human name as a code name? It’s not as if the code name is secret, so I assume they use code names to reduce confusion. If you’re going with “Eli”, why not go with his actual name, which is the same number of letters and one less syllable?

Grimes is like a middle school theatre kid who just happened to receive divine revelation from some pop music deity. She’s a post-punk Joan of Arc and I adore her.

Thank you. Heard the news break on NPR and came directly here for Deadspin’s insightful coverage of that name. Disappointed in this obvious gap in Deadspin’s reporting.

I see you flaunting your love of Best Exotic Marigold Hotel, Bobby.

Agreed on the categorization. I’m jazzed about this column, especially since Racked doesn’t do their weekly sales round ups anymore. But it would be helpful to have some organization. Maybe a weekly “This week’s sales” column, then daily “best bets” or similar? And all divided into categories like “home goods, women’s…

My siblings and I all grew up with my Dad’s last name, but my mom kept hers. Absent a few “oh, I kept my last name” comments she had to make every now and then, it was a non-issue.

Aziraphale is definitely snapping this one up.

I said this on the Gawker post, too, but what are people’s guesses for Rory’s career? Reporter (ughhhh, no)? Magazine editor (also, ughh, no)?

He’s like a 1957 “Boy’s Life” story become reality.

This comment is as important as the Rosetta Stone

An all around great night in baseball.

No one can tell me those customers weren’t Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles in disguise.
