Hmm...I don’t know. As a conservative wacko friend of my dad recently posted on Facebook (in response to my posting proof that a photo of Obama holding a phone upside down was indeed a poorly doctored pic): “Don’t trust Snopes.”

Agreed that they aren’t the best. All the good places are closed though. :/

Who knew how much I’d enjoy that slightly stale maple bar! (Me. I did.)

A quick poll: I don’t really do Thanksgiving so I’m currently dining on donuts from Safeway. Sad or awesome?

You will be missed, EGR. Thank you for all of your stellar contributions and for launching The Slot, my go-to rocking-in-a-corner trigger for all things political. Wishing you the best!

Dear Mr. Swanson,

I appreciate the attempt at balancing the scales here but it seems as though this would really only serve to amplify the importance of physical appearance. Maybe it’s just me but I’m not attracted to the vast majority of men and would rather they downplay their need to judge women by appearance than for me to upplay…

This is an amazing response to a ridiculous issue (let them wear what they want, dipshit bosses and viewers). Rock on, ladies...

I love cranberry sauce but only if it doesn't have the weird little stems and twigs in it.

Damn, girl. (Also, can we talk about her dress? WANT.)

My first thought wasn’t that dudes were trying to impress me so much as assuming I don’t want as much pizza because I’m worried about my delicate lady figure (something they don’t consider, and thus are more considerate of sharing, with other guys). They assumed wrong. Slow down and don’t eat my food, punk.

Mark is gone too?! What the motherfucking hell.

It’d be an interesting angle but I still wouldn’t read it.

I would be in favor of a dedicated segment covering emerging trends in feminist snowglobes, but not written by Spencer Pratt.

The Mayor of Roanoke is already on it.

No worries! It happens. :)

Bkirchgessner on Instagram appears to be a guy in Indiana who hunts. Did I get your name wrong?
