I'm with you on the beauty privilege, 100%, because I have eyes. But she's something like 6'3" and started her transition well after puberty. I know she's mentioned that she herself doesn't consider herself to have passing privilege, and has had some serious angst about it in her pre-OitNB life.

Her hair is always on point. I don't think I've ever seen a picture of her where I haven't been like, "Good lord, woman!" about her hair.

This has been up for three hours and it's already at $12o,000.

Good! I'm glad. But licensing procedures vary from state to state, and I have yet to encounter a state in which - background check process aside - it is harder for an 18-year-old to get a gun than a car. And yet, when it's suggested that perhaps some stricter licensing processes should be put in place as a way of…

Right? God, feminists are so sensitive. I mean, geez, men gave you the right to vote almost a hundred years ago. Now they want men to not occasionally beat or kill them for not immediately fucking any mouthbreathing manchild who gazes upon them? Women: so demanding.

"How will requiring a test to get a driver's license, common-sense safety measures like seatbelts installed in all newly manufactured cars, and insurance in order to own a car lessen tragic car accidents? Then only criminals and police will drive cars!"

Plus it's REALLY not sanitary, let's be honest. That's a food prep area, not a bodily fluids area.

I'm not a Boston fan (understatement) but that's fucking hilarious.

Also: L'Oreal Blush Delice. It was lovely, sheer, buildable color that was glowy without being shimmery and somehow smelled nice. I had it in Watermelon, and it did what some of the Nars and Benefit blushes I have try to do while being a fifth of the price. I miss you, L'Oreal Blush Delice.

OMG YES. THIS LINE'S SHAMPOO AND CONDITIONER ARE MY HOLY GRAIL PRODUCT. I'M SORRY FOR THE CAPSLOCK BUT IT'S THE ONLY METHOD I HAVE TO EXPRESS HOW TEN YEARS LATER I'M STILL NOT OVER THIS BEING DISCONTINUED. DAMN YOU JOHN FRIEDAAAAAAAAA.

I'm an Elizabeth, and I've gone through several shortened versions including Liz before I ended up sticking with a different version which was really obscure when I chose it but has since absolutely blown up in popularity. I like to think it was because I chose it that it ended up getting cool.

If you did what was right for you, fine. But don't expect the right answer for you to be the right answer for everyone. Was that really not the point you picked up on in my comment? I mean, come on.

Ughhhhh. Relationships, and people, are more complex than "DUMP THEM IMMEDIATELY IF THEY CHEAT!!!!" The grownups among us actually realize that. I would invite you to join us in the real world once you reach that stage.

It's pretty, but it's also the name of an insurance company here in the UK.

Hey now, Elizabeth is an awesome name because you can have that be your name and choose from, like, 100 different nicknames.

Oh, god, I have to pick one? When I was single I was an, um, adventurous young lass. There was that time when I was an exchange student I let this guy I was kind of seeing walk me home to my apartment, and ended up having him go down on me in the elevator at 2 AM because my host parents lived in that apartment and I…

Indiana will never suck me back. Indiana can have me back when I'm a corpse.

I'm from Indiana. I was shocked that it didn't beat out Illinois. Our state saying is practically "At Least We're Not Kentucky" - but everyone knows Kentuckians are too stupid to leave Kentucky, so obviously we'd poll higher as we're smart enough to know we need to get out.

Lived in the UK for a while and picked up a taste for cider there. Angry Orchard was my drink of choice for a good while when I was back in the States. Now I'm back in England, and cider is basically all I drink. I'm not looking forward to getting back to the US and finding that hipsters suddenly liking cider means…
