I recently transitioned from retail admin into an oil and gas sector position. The soft sexism is ridiculous. Actually so is the blatant sexism. The funny thing is, these guys (who have never had a woman in the office) are trying so hard NOT to look like misogynistic butt wads that I finally had to put my foot down

Aww Robin. He would have been my first choice.

The faculty is refusing to show up? Is there fainting and pearl clutching too? How ridiculously dramatic.

I understand that makeup on celebs is mostly for the cameras, but that picture of Taylor and Lorde seems to be oozing foundation.

I’m sure Kate Middleton will be devastated. Once she googles our dear Ms Atwood.

This has got to be some sort of way to drum up publicity for the book right? Secretly in cahoots sort of thing? We’re not “hiding” books that give us the ickies now? Oh Wal Mart, you suck so badly.

I don’t think I’ll be flipping through RS anytime soon.

It was a very common form of condescension for many years. I think I can even remember my grandmother saying something to the effect of “He’s negro but surprisingly well spoken”. The implication is that a person that isn’t white couldn’t possible string a coherent sentence together.

Ahhhh... the good old days when you were 17 and the ONLY THING THAT MATTERED WAS PROM! Basically prep work for the future bridezillas of the world. I must be the ONLY girl out of 250 looking like a giant teal cupcake dipped in glitter.

I don’t. Scouts honor. But my friends and neighbors have poured huge amounts of money into the ND/Montana economy making thrice yearly trips there.

Yeah you do. It’s called Minot. You trap the Saskatchewan residents in the Hobby Lobby and take all their money before kicking them back across the border :)

How. how is that even close to a logical statement?

It utterly amazes me that I could’ve written this exact rant. Except I’m obese. It’s the same damned thing, My body is apparently public property and I’m either disgusting or “cushioned” and I’m a drain on the healthcare system or a middle finger to conventional beauty. Total mindfuck when you’re trying to fix your

They’re pretty boring until about 10 or 11 months. Peak cuteness is around 2-3, providing you don’t have to be around them when they’re being assholes*

Babies in buckets. My friends are paying through the nose to have their offspring posed like this in buckets. I’m so done with babies in buckets.

Karma for naming him Chester? He seems like he's angry for the sake of anger. Gary Crosby did it better.

Mention a wedding theme to my mother and a violent rage ensues.

I love Liz at any age. I would kill for that red dress.

I know right? I was beyond paranoid about my bridesmaid dress last time. I had lost about 70 pounds before she even asked me - luckily, because even then I barely fit the biggest dress they made, and I was paranoid that I'd gain back or shrink more and it wouldn't fit. I tried that fucker on every week before the

I remember listening to everyone go on and on about how well my boyfriend's sister had "branded" their wedding (shocker - she's in marketing). It annoyed the hell out of me. It's supposed to be a wedding, not a consumerish shrine to your ego.
