Having been on a hiring committee at a small, private, liberal arts school, this is exactly the sort of email that would get a hard "no" because the candidate clearly has no idea what the department needs out of a TT hire. You're being hired primarily to teach, so asking for fewer new preps and a pretenure sabbatical…
In the course of writing this piece, I tried to recall the timeline of the anti-Natalie Portman movement. Did it start with Garden State? Was it the time she shaved her head and was still hot? Or was it as late as Black Swan? Did it predate the Anne Hathaway backlash or did they overlap? IT'S SO HARD TO KEEP TRACK OF…
Yeah, I know. I hate it when a sports culture website like this covers one of the most culturally symbolic and interesting things that happened all year in great detail. Fuckers. Stick to dong-shaped objects.
I was blown away in September of last year after reading a SI article on the Seahawks under Pete Carroll. No negative comments allowed at practice. Mandatory yoga and meditation classes. Not exactly the high school coaching I got! I'm not familiar with Harbaughs program in detail but it seems pretty obvious that he…
Agreed, seeing how teams like Seattle and San Francisco are, they probably realize it's more constructive to make teammates feel good about themselves than let people like Richie Incognito run the locker-room. I'm not saying the Seattle and San Francisco locker room would pass an HR test but it's light years better…
I think Sherm learned his lesson and has been intentionally laying low since the NFC Championship outburst. Baldwin on the other hand, hoo boy he rightly called out Carter and backed it up!
I was held up (along with an entire store of shoppers) during a 4 armed gunman robbery in a Buffalo Exchange in Phoenix. No one from that company followed up with me after the robbery. Where's my news article? Where's my coupon? Where's my entitlement to be a victim? Oh yea, I do that thing called "not lookin' for a…
"Like American Apparel Ad: The Movie—long on the male gaze and short on female humanity"
I had an ex-boyfriend who thought that tampoon sizes were made for different size vajays. "But honey, do you really need a super-sized tampoon? You're not THAT big."
"O-H!"
I foresee an upswing in pervy losers on the train being "accidentally" stomped on while acquiring their creepshots.
because pants are for boys, heathen.
That said, I fully endorse this joke because I will never get tired of watching actresses pretend to eat food.
You mad, bro?
I hate stories like this, because MRAs love them. False rape accusations are about as statistically common as meteor strikes and are a completely specious, idiotic reason to discount rape accusations. But high profile ones like this (yes I am assuming that Faircloth is lying, literally every single piece of evidence…
Yeah, I've never seen any of these MRA's actually campaign for something men legitimately need, like paternity leave.
Co-signed, Lindy. If MRAs actually cared about issues facing men due to traditional gender roles, they'd be feminists! These dudes are just woman haters- bitter, nasty rageaholics - that deserve to be put in a time-out like the tantruming children they are.
I've had several back to back relationships where the guy treated me poorly and would not compromise one bit. When I walked away, they played it tough (and, I should say, politely and kindly) and said, essentially, "Fine. I wish you well. Have a nice life." Within a few months, every one without exception called me…
