I was thinking Olsen...

I love her. And I understand why she wears so much makeup. She had some special on MTV when Stripped came out, and they showed her without makeup. She has some serious discoloration (probably because she has been wearing heavy stage makeup since she was a tot). She is probably paranoid about her skin flaws, and…

@pursewhore: Agreed, he is adorable.

@ceejeemcbeegee: That is unfair. Just because he has been forthright about his distaste for homophobes, doesn't make him gay.

My niece's 6th birthday party was dinosaur themed. She was so obsessed with dinosaurs that my sister had to put a cap on the number of plastic dinosaurs she could keep— they were taking up the entire playroom. My nephew likes to cook, and wants a easybake oven. This focus group doesn't tell me anything knew. It…

Melt Banana, The Go! Team, The Decemberists, and Ladytron all have at least one girl in the band...

Wow. He looks a lot like my grandpa. My grandpa would have told them to get the hell out of his house...

@DrunkAndHorny: It actually made me think of Arrested Development when Tobias was explaining that he was a combination of an analyst and a therapist, an Analrapist.

(Though the grammarsaurus would have a field day with what I wrote.)

After we turned on the debate, the first thing I said to my boyfriend was, "Woah, what happened to all of the lines on her face?"

Was this just a way to get into Playboy? She probably paid someone to complain about her outfit... Okay, I'm stretching it, but she looks like she had been sending them photos for years... and they ignored her until she got her 15 min.

@sumac: Probably.

@braak: Yeah, but treatment for someone who is schizophrenic and has been out of "mainstream" society for years is a tough call. It either means drugs (which often make the person feel like they're wading through cement) or being put in a "facility" (which pretty much is like living your life in a nursing home). He…

@raoul_j_raoul: I live in Iowa City (and moved from Illinois), and love it. I think having kids here is perfect, because there are so many things to do— yet it still feels like a small town. You just have to look past all of the drunk frat boys yelling "hawks" on Saturday nights after games.

@sumac: Wait! Other people live in Iowa?

Making a joke out of a schizophrenic guy is so cool!

Oh god! [www.manbehindthedoll.com] This is him.

When I was an undergrad, I worked at the Gap. My manager had one of the largest collections of Ken dolls in the US. I wish I could find the website for his collection... it was amazing.

@ginger rant: There is a big difference between the two situations.

All of the guys I know with "Asian fetishes" are really big anime/video game nerds or guys with power issues. And both are fascinated with a stereotype of Asian women. The nerds think that they might find a girl that "understands" them and their interests. They guys with power issues think that they'll find someone…
