Since Harry and Meghan’s kid will be further down the line of succession and almost certainly never get anywhere close to the throne, they can get creative—for royals, anyway. “[Prince Charles’s brother] Andrew and his then-wife Sarah Ferguson called their daughters Beatrice and Eugenie. Royal names for sure, but not

Cecil or Cecily Sussex - and God help that kid if it has a lisp.

If I know the English people whatever name they baby is given it will be called “ __________ the Black”.

I would name it “Buffy the Vampire Slayer,” because:

This was the UK, not the US. I don't know what their labour laws are like but I doubt it's as easy to fire people as it is in the US. In my country, you would not get fired for a prank like that, only taken off projector duty and probably be made cleaning the bathrooms or something

I swear to God YouTube played an ad for the latest Purge installment when we waited for a video to upload. I get that those are some of the risks that come with YouTube videos and I’m not even going to get mad at the algorithm, but damn that seems like a really ineffective way of generating interest. She’s probably

I once got the film " Sunday bloody Sunday", a film about an older Gary man in London coming to terms with his sexuality, confused with "Black Sunday", a film about terrorists exploding a blimp over the Superbowl. I watched Sunday Bloody Sunday the whole time trying to figure out how they were going to work that blimp

This has happended at The Music Box in Chicago. They don’t show kids movies, so all their trailers are tuned for adults, but every once in a while they’ll show something like Buster Keaton’s “The General” and people will bring their kids.

I remember there being a story not too long ago about a theater that got into hot water for showing the completely wrong movie, several times in a row; apparently they didn’t even realize there was a problem because people thought they’d accidentally bought the wrong tickets, so they didn’t complain.

I admit it is a low low low bar these days but this was a hella refreshing ACTUAL apology. 

He’s legit the most average looking man conceivable. He’s the kid who asked you out to prom and you had to find a polite way to say no, because yeah, he’s nice and all, but his favorite color is mauve and he won’t stop asking you to play DnD.

This situation is also a national beard-loss tragedy.

If her parents were rich enough to just fund her lifestyle like that, they wouldn’t have needed to do the illegal bribe. They would instead donate enough money to build a new building, and the dean would use one of his discretionary slots to get them into the school. Which is perfectly legal, as those slots are

Yes. Because you know in the culture of that school, success and wealth make you a wonderful person.  Integrity and a set of ethics are for the poors, like the sad-assed counselor who had the nerve to question the Alpha People!!!

What a shitty shitty shitty job to be that hs counselor trying to have a shred of integrity in the face of outright privileged injustice.

Apparently the 200-page affidavit for the Varsity Blues case is an amazing read, per the Atlantic article. When the high school counselor confronted one of Aunt Becky’s kids about the crew thing, Aunt Becky and Mr. Aunt Becky ripped the high school counselor a new one. They’re trash.

Do not have huge boobs. Trust me. I look at this and just know I’ll look like a truck in it.

I actually think it’s interesting how most of her wardrobe on the show isn’t particularly flattering or sexy. Jodie Comer is obviously gorgeous and it would be easy (and the obvious route) to dress her as a cliche uber-sexy femme fatale in skin-tight ensembles. But they don’t, and I find it pretty refreshing. Same

Ok but how does someone in real life wear a dress that voluminous and not look pregnant or like you are wearing a circus tent?

I ❤️ Killing Eve. I’m so glad Sandra Oh is on tv again in something other than a medical soap opera (Grey’s is just not my thing.)
