This was part of how Wee Little Ginger hopped off the Normal Religion bandwagon. I was like, "ummmmm, my dog is totally going to heaven, so you can just eat it" (I was a precocious youth). I am now a UU, and my lefty little church has an annual "Blessing of the Animals" service, where we all bring our pets and they…

1) I am trying so hard to follow WTF is happening in this article and just failing miserably.

Agreed. I'd be more bothered if she were bringing her political beliefs into her work at Today. But while I obviously don't share her beliefs, she's allowed to express them in her own podcast. And frankly, I wish more notable people were able to not inject politics into every single thing they do. In real life, I have…

Agreed. Not sure if I'm reading too much into the tone, but the article felt kinda snarky and I don't think it was warranted. Plus, if I were that Maid of Honor, I'd be the exact opposite of "pissed." Your best friend/sister (because, honestly, that's who MOH's) just got her favorite celebrity at the shower you…

Absolutely, and they are usually waaaaay to pricey for a single (normal) guest to buy, so either everyone has to go in on it together, or you don't get one. OR! Taylor Swift shows up and gives it to you!

A lot of companies actually do handle or refer compaints via Twitter. Most of the major airlines do, too. I mean, they can't rebook you via Twitter or anything, but they often will reply with links/phone numbers to the right places.

Well, apparently BuzzFeed has changed the text in their article, so it no longer says "revenge porn" and now says "amateur porn and shock site," so it's unclear if it is a revenge photo now.

Hmmm, they must have changed it. I even double checked that it said Revenge Porn before posting. Nevermind, I guess.

So, Buzzfeed is reporting that the image originally came from a Revenge Porn site. If so, I think it would be nice for Jez to take that photo down.

Wow. Way to drag up a comment I made almost 6 months just to tell me how much you hate Skylar and that you can't type properly.

I'm not down with your language use—"ghetto" is pretty nasty term to throw around—and while I used it flippantly above, gentrification is not a 100% good (that "rehabbing" prices long-time residents out of their neighborhoods). But yes, the gay community are often the first to move into some neighborhoods, then the…

Definitely. The graduated ones bring their local style of bro-dom with them. I've seen many a southern bro wandering the streets of DC trying to sell me on how much of a "gentleman" he is.

I think it's a trend that needs to take off with more people. God, who wants to talk to someone on the phone? And, like, for the 4 people I like talking to, I am usually doing something else when they call. A heads-up text would make this all much better.

Thank you. I'm not a vegetarian (though I was for a long time, and still eat relatively little meat), but I was reading this and going "not causation." LOTS of people end up on vegetarian diets in order to help deal with existing health issues already.

Hahaha, I've been there a few Saturday & Sunday mornings myself, and I'm always amazed by how much it looks like a bomb went off in front of Madams Organ. Like, does being a bro mean you don't understand how to throw away a cup or can? Apparently, it does.

It's like Bro-gentrification. The hipsters show up, then the regular people show up, then finally the bros show up, and we all leave it to them and go find a new neighborhood to slowly encroach on. DC LYFE.

Biddies.

Also, DC bros has infiltrated FAR beyond Georgetown bars. We've basically just given them free reign over Adams Morgan, they are creeping into Dupont, and they've always owned Sign of the Whale and McFaddens.

Well, it worked for me! I actually like basing arguments off of facts!

Sweet Jesus, reading this exchange was exhausting. I don't know how you had the patience to actually participate in it civilly. Just wanted you to know that someone appreciated your reasoned and thoughtful responses, even if the person you were talking to can't handle facts.
