Do you really think people are utterly self-aware like that? Whenever the answer to "Why do you think that looks good?" is just "Because" then we know that there's a level of social history shaping opinions on a level that people just aren't aware of.

I heard this, too! The message I got out of it was that he was debunking the stereotype that cats are pets that completely lack empathy and care for their human companions.

Except do you really remember who gave you how much money? I think Tracy's making a ton of great points, but one of the nice things about a present is that you can think of the giver every time you use it. ("Where did you get that amazing duvet?" "Oh, my mom found it in a little shop in Vermont and gave it to me!")…

His sexts aren't bad! Some of them were pretty hot. But this girl is seriously subpar in her responses. He'd be actively getting into a fantasy and she'd write back an uninspired "fuck me"? He could do better.

The number of book adaptations I've lately heard her name associated with "producing and starring" in. Isn't she doing Gone Girl, too?

What's pretty remarkable is that I think he almost managed to pull off the fur-trimmed coat. It was the white leggings that thwarted him.

My life is made. Why haven't you guys done joint posts yet?!

Let's say that we follow this flawed logic of "gifts are intended so that the couple breaks even on the wedding costs." If that's the case, I guaran-fucking-tee it that some relative or three gave a gift that is worth in excess of $200. I've been to weddings where grandpa paid for the open bar, mom bought the bride…

If someone did make these ridiculous claims McCain lists off—which, I agree with you, completely overlooks the stigma associated with women pursuing action in situations like these—would there be any bite to the accusations? If, for example, someone accused an English professor who assigns Lady Chatterly's Lover of…

Great point. But for the most part, I think most people agree the choice parts are pretty overwhelmingly male. For every Lady Mac, there's a Hamlet, Othello, Coriolanus, Richard III, and Lear.

Love the idea of us making a statement by buying the magazine. I don't even like VF that much, but I'll be grabbing one at a newsstand today. Let's make non-white women on the cover happen more than once every five years.

Isn't that the nature of most plays, though? That there are the 2-3 "choice" parts that offer an amazing opportunity to the actor, with many other ones that could be flat or amazing depending on the talent of the supporting actor in that role?

As a host, my least-favorite things are (a) my living room being a shit-show, with blankets thrown on the floor and dirty underwear on the coffee table, (b) having that person sleep in until noon and not leave the house until dinner, basically leaving me feeling like a guest in my own home, and (c) doing the…

Hey, I'm poor too, but you'd think that if you're stealing once a week from a luxury jewelry designer—and 125 thefts, in two years, is more than once a week—you'd end up making more than Jennifer Aniston's weekly paycheck on Friends.

What a pretentious 17-year-old were you. At my tiny New England liberal arts school, we guzzled our Keystone Light and said thank you.

Based on the headline picture, totally thought that Robert Pattinson was dating Ygritte now! I'm disappointed. ("You know nothing, Ed Cullen.")

Apparently they monitor jewelry worth $25,000 or more, and she only did this with jewelry worth $10,000 or less. (Which is why she stole 165 pieces of jewelry and only ended up banking a little over a million bucks.)

Considering that she was victim to "routine downsizing" after two years there, I guess she was smart to try to build up a nest egg in advance?

So basically the CDC's average 19-year-old is Hayden Panettiere?

Sure thing! Tulsa's more desperate for talented and dedicated teachers than any city I've ever seen, especially in the schools that serve our most low-income students (primarily in the north and east parts of the city). If you're passionate about working with kids in poverty, there are a lot of jobs along those…
