I hate this trend so much. I’ve noticed that it’s mainly tween girls and tacky women of a “certain age” who wear them the most.

It’s so true! I met her once at Gracie Mansion and she told me she liked my purse, which worried me because she has such awful taste. Her husband was with her and he gave off such creeper vibes.

hat is it with these people who have to be everything? Rachael Ray wants to be Oprah, Oprah wants to be Rachael Ray, Goop and her ilk want to be Martha Stewart. I’m sick of all of them. Random aside: Now Rachael Ray is making dog food and I cannot believe the outfit she wore in her commercial. It’s just mystifying…

Fuck this. Black people so rarely get the benefit of the doubt but of course this cop does.

I never do this but I am going to start now. Thank you for the good advice.

Once you hit 40 you just don’t care anymore. I’m scared to think how bad I’ll be in my 70s (assuming I live that long, don’t want to jinx myself).

Just wear looser pants and you’ll be all set!

Ha, I own up to my unobservant behavior.

Thank you - this is exactly the primer I needed.

I kind of want to get it in my upper lip. But I’m too scared I’ll look like a duck.

People who make a living from tips.

They are all the same to me!

Ha, I can’t tell any of them apart except for Kim and their thirsty as hell mother.

1994! That explains it. I was living in Asia then and the only thing I watched when I was there was MacGyver because it was in English. Thank you, Ms. Jormp Jomp, I feel better now .

Kylie’s full of shit (and restalayne).

PLEASE go read Monique Judge’s piece about this on The Root. It is fantastic.

He’s been using that tag line for years.

Oh my god, how did I not know he died?? I don’t understand how I missed this. I really liked him.
