I felt the same way... "let's discuss it and then be happy."

Thank you. The Handmaid's Tale thanks you. Cat's Eye thanks you. Bodily Harm thanks you. Oryx and Crake thanks you. (I'm running out of Atwood titles that I've read and loved to thank you with.)

Yes please!

Exactly. No one ever died from titty fucking.

This is a good place where I have no funny rejoinder but would like +1 your comment a skillion times.

I grit my teeth and think "Different time/place/culture." If possible I mentally substitute an innocuous word for the offensive one (the homophobic f-word becomes "flapjack.") It makes the racism/homophobia seem almost quaint and lets me try and enjoy the book.

Well there are about 210 of them so I think they'll be busy for awhile if they use the really rare ones

Someone hasn't seen Mac and Me in a reaaaaaaaaaally long time. (that's my vocal fry coming out.)

It's coming out on Blu-Ray soon. A remastered version with better sound, not the MST3K version sadly.

I rewatched this on Youtube Monday night and it while I adored it as a kid, it's aged worse than Cool as Ice.

I love you for combining the Sugarbaker sisters and the wizarding world of Harry Potter!

I laughed aloud.

Thanks for stereotyping.

Thank you for being a voice of reason here. It's a shame that someone has to say this every time Twilight/Hunger Games/True Blood/ insert stereotyped genre here is mentioned on the site.

I love you for this comment.

I figured that. I also figured that it's none of my business if she'd bleached her hair or not — it's not like she's slamming jello shots. Or mainlining heroin. Or drinking 8 cups of coffee a day like my mom.

I kept looking at her hair because it was dramatically lighter/darker and thinking "Please have wet hair and not be bleaching at X months."

I think Audrey Tatou might have "stolen" from you first.

If this is heralding the end of DadBoners, I hope Karl goes out by re-tweeting himself Dead Poets Society-style: "Live life like there's NO Heaven. Get the job done now. Go all out. The works. The Big Man won't ask you to the dance if you look desperate."

This is why try not to call 1-800 numbers from my cell phone or sign up for anything using my real name and email address or phone if possible.
