Aight... I'm looking at your name now. Dutch? Flemish? (if so english is really going to mess you up!) Makes sense!

I found the hoopla and sheer passion of people's responses to the dress fascinating as a possible teaching tool for discussing the interaction of fact/physical reality and perception. I still think that the people most freaked out or hostile about the color of the dress are those most uncomfortable with the idea that…

I for one love yelling on the internet about nothing.

Sweetheart, the bible has been around for a long time. Many metaphors from Bible scripture have made their way into common usage and disconnected themselves from the specifics of the Biblical story from whence they came.

She really, really doesn't like alcohol. I think the issues with her stances on sexual assault are strongly linked to that fact.

Thank you for focusing on the vital parts of this story. It's refreshing.

Meanwhile, on Slate, Emily Yoffe wants to know what the big deal is.

I'm sorry this is a word you are unfamiliar with but it is in fact a word.

Dear Prudie is a known victim blamer. She can go fuck herself for 5ever.

Well for one thing, it means that the rapist faces some very real consequences for their actions as opposed to the slap on the wrist or no punishment at all that currently seems to be the norm. Usually when you apply to a school there is a question regarding disciplinary action at previous institutions, so I believe…

That's pretty consistent with the stats I've seen when I've looked into studies on the topic. If a rapist commits 6-8 assaults each, it only takes a subset of men to perpetrate the enormous rates of rape/attempted rape reported by women in college. Researchers use surveys to determine rates of assault, so the stats…

"...If nothing changes, more than 100,000 college students will be sexually assaulted in the upcoming school year."

But is this really even "caught"? Because that one guy that got 10 million in diamonds and only nine months in prison probably thinks he got away with it. Even if they do catch him trying to sell the diamonds later, they can't put him back in jail, double jeopardy.

Am I the only one who is disappointed when the people who pull off legit heists are caught?

They robbed the jewels in 2008 and were convicted 9 years later. In the future?

entirely tangential but eh

They've been called "The Pink Panther Gang" in the press before. I almost wrote about them for Cracked. They're a ballsy group who also pulled some pretty ballsy jail-breaks.

My female BFF in high school used to have her boyfriend spank it into little cosmetic jars so she could use it on her zits. I believe you. Personally, I thought good old Ten O Six was more effective.

omg MOAR JEZEBEL VIDEOS THIS WAS AWESOME.
