It's hardly a new trend that insecure young women (possibly with daddy issues) feel oddly attracted to older men, especially those in a position of power. In fact, that story is as old as time (cue Beauty and the Beast title song...).

Silly you, Japanese ladies don't get pregnant unless they are married and then move in with their fat husband in a non-fat-controlled apartment, of COURSE!

Kaesespaetzle are the BOMB, only topped by Maultaschen (I am not sure they have those in Austria?)!!!! There is a reason I gained 30 pounds since I moved back to Germany from NZ, sigh.

Me too! Is...is that not allowed???

German here, we distinguish between Wiener Schnitzel and Schnitzel, the former made with veal and also the original dish created in Vienna, and the latter made with pork.

Well, to be fair, Germans indeed make Schnitzel with pork, unlike Austrians, who make it with veal (and thus it becomes not just Schnitzel but "Wiener Schnitzel)." Though I have a feeling Martha doesn't actually know all this and just thinks that a) Schnitzel = pork and b) Austria = Germany.

Um... I see you aren't fluent in sarcasm. My bad.

Yes! That's what annoys me the most about GOT's Ygritte - she is supposed to be this smart, strong warrior woman but leaves her long hair open?! Makes no sense!

And it is news to me that Polanski is Italian, but sure. Also, just because a power-mad president of a country does something doesn't mean every single citizen in said country thinks that's a-ok. In fact, Berlusconi got into deep, deep trouble for all of this, but I guess your amazing geography skills override your…

I would also like to add that Europe isn't exactly known for leniency towards rape and/or statutory rape. It's not like raping 13 year old girls is just shrugged off in France or Poland, or that Europeans have a lower moral standard in general, so the whole argument is creepy bullshit anyway.

Ugh, is this what Polanski apologists use as one of their reasons, that "we in Europe" bang 13 year olds on a regular basis (or that 13 year olds find it normal to be banged?)!??! Ugh.

I worked in retail for 3 years and still felt shaky and pretty much like I've been run over by a truck every time a customer yelled at me and called me a cunt, a fat bitch, unprofessional, dumb, etc. etc. etc. In fact, the screaming, batshit crazy customers were the main reason why I quit and decided to get a degree…

I...I think I may be in love with you (or maybe just with your gif, it is hard to separate the two right now)!

Man, I hear ya! Even worse than a flood of baby pictures are the "I LOOOOVE being a mum, oh my God, listen to this totally unfunny anecdote about what my child did today," posts by new(ish) mothers! I get it, you think that your child is the most precious, special genius ever, but I really, really, really do not care…

God, THIS! Nothing more depressing than seeing all these positive "oh my God, best day ever, just got a promotion, met the most amazing person to share my life with, won the lottery twice in row my life is perfect!" posts from "friends" on facebook! The idea that there is a whole social network geared ONLY to those…

Haha, fair enough! I only know because my best friend is Muslim. Here in Europe it is otherwise not very common at all for men to be circumcised, unless for religious reasons (and even that is seen as controversial in some countries actually). I remember watching the Sex and the City episode where Charlotte is…

Wow, you are really good with that "copy and paste" thing you're apparently practising on here, well done, well done.

Too late I'm afraid, but it was a good thought.

You are depressingly predictable. Life is just so boring sometimes, sigh.

Actually, most Muslim communities also practise safe and hygienic circumcisions as long as they have access to proper medical care, not just the Jewish community. Just fyi (and not making a statement for or against the severity of the trauma from circumcision, but simply pointing out that not all Muslims are…
