Yeah, he's definitely a "bro" and probably not someone worth expending a lot of romantic energy on. I suppose I just like random, abrasive humor. That said, isn't Tinder basically the straight equivalent of Grindr? Would it surprise anyone using either app that people may ask for sex in a direct or crude manner? I…

I know that I have terrible taste, but if someone texted this to me I would find it completely hilarious. Probably wouldn't respond, but I'd get a laugh out of it. It doesn't seem like he's "harassing" her, per say, he's definitely going for a brash joke. I can see how some people would find it obnoxious though.

I'd be more scared of my kid getting accidentally shot or put in a choke hold by the police attendants than them getting snatched away by a pedophile.

I can understand the lone child aspect of your concern, but even then I would say that in my experience these things tended to work out just fine. The child had a cell phone that he could use if he got into trouble. Is it a fail safe? No. Is it an incredible improvement on the sort of access to communication that I…

I don't even "get" any of the first three things that you listed. When I was seven years old I was able to go outside and play by myself all the time. I was allowed to walk to the playground at the school 10 minutes away from my house all the time. I was allowed to do whatever I wanted outside as long as I checked in…

That's a pretty good budget, especially since you're able to acknowledge the restaurant thing. My Bf and I really, really need to scale back on the amount of money we spend on food. We don't hoard food or anything, but I have yet to master the skill on not buying every tasty looking thing I see. Your budget seems like…

Oh I think for the most part it's pretty decent food. If most people ate a regular diet of beans and peanut butter and chicken liver (for whatever reason) we'd have much lower rates heart disease an diabetes in this country. My only gripe (besides the super processed peanut butter - pro tip, if your grocery store has…

He actually did a piece for Gawker a few months ago, if I remember correctly.

Well, if your livelihood depended on getting your candid photos in as many magazines as possible then you might view the situation differently.

You know, your choice of .gif is funny because Adele engages in a lot of the same sort of self-promotional work as Kim, but doesn't get nearly the amount of crap for it. I don't mean that as a dig against anyone, but it's an interesting comparison.

I think that must be where a lot of the misconception about their life comes in. I know some people who have worked in the TV industry and it doesn't sound like the filming process is actually all that fun most of the time. It seems like it tends to alternate between boring and stressful and can drag on for house…

It's very possible. I've been more humble in the rest of my responses to this thread.

And I'm not saying that she's got a bigger burden to deal with or anything, it's just mind boggling when I see so many posts on Jezebel and other places lambasting her for being lazy and entitled. I would much rather be a reality TV celebutante than a shell of a person bored to death by their crap office job, but I'm…

Hell, I'd jump at the chance to get paid to go to parties rather than sit at my desk and stare at spreadsheets all day, but you can't deny that it's got to be a tiring venture.

"You think evolution is a silly topic?"

Why is it so hard for people to believe that this girl actually does do "work" for a significant portion of her day? Photoshoots are work (even if they're self-produced for Instagram. That apparently is a valuable asset for her). Interviews are work. Courting paps while she does errands all day is work. Filming a…

Haha, the chemical shit in conventional sunscreen might cause lymphatic cancer or something eventually, but I hate it when crunchies trot out that tired "sunscreen causes skin cancer" trope. What they're neglecting to say about the studies they're quoting is that some people have a false sense of security when they…

Gotta check!

Like for weed butter or for trying to pass a piss test?

I suppose I'm relying on my own acquaintance with a virulent atheist who idolizes Dawkins and Hitchens. I'm an atheist (or at least highly skeptical agnostic) myself, but the rude and dismissive dialogue that I hear from people who closely follow Dawkins and Hitchens and that whole crew of popular atheist thinkers…
