That obituary was a disgrace, and got the thrashing it deserved on Twitter and in other media (The Australian is a Murdoch paper) yesterday. My fav response with this article imagining the obits of male writers if they were subjected to the same treatment as women.

Hold fast, the statute of limitations will expire soon enough.

White Girl Wasted: Boss Level.

I work at a Japanese restaurant in LA with a very Japanese sounding name and only Japanese food.

They probably have one of the hundreds of mugs or shirts you can buy with this exact wording on it and copied it.

What exactly about "Eat Mor Chikin" is dumb? Most fast food places serve beef and Chick-fil-A is a chicken place. They use cows to promote eating chicken because the cows don't want to die and because they are cows, can't spell correctly. It's pretty good, actually.

I knew a guy once who had the classic drunken blackout tattoo moment, except that when he woke up with a brand new mystery tattoo, his was beautiful and said "Karate Explosion" in gorgeous script with pretty curlicues and stuff. Did he do karate? No he did not. Does he know where he got the tattoo? No he does not.…

I just made an account to say fuck capitalism fuck the monetary system and support the Venus Project

Mine too! My mom asked me what our theme was. I said wedding and she got really mad. Nothing cutesy, the DIY stuff was purely cost saving because I couldn't find invitations I liked for our budget, 1st Corinthians, a-line white wedding dress, traditional vows, tiered cake (no cupcakes, no pie, cake) wine, beer, much…
