However many drinks I can finish before happy hour ends? That's not the answer they're looking for, is it.

So many of my clothes are hand-wash only that I'm really too lazy to wash them all that way. I do it sometimes, but generally I try to wear them multiple times as long as I don't sweat in them, and when the dirty ones reach a critical mass, I put them through the delicates cycle.

Not gonna lie, I use the sniff test, too (not for underwear, though—that's just gross). I don't want to lug my stuff to the laundromat any more often than I have to, and those machines can be so harsh on my nice clothes. The less things get washed and dried, the longer they last.

Why thank you, bro! I figured Dylan Thomas would not mind, since he was rather fond of raging. =)

Do not go sober into that good night,

Amazing. Hearted.

Makes a lot of sense to me. When I was young and unworldly and knew little about literature, I thought everything I wrote was awesome, and I wrote prolifically. And then I learned more about the craft of writing—enough to know that my writing was crap. And the blow to my ego made me not want to write anymore. I wish I…

Only English words? But I played "merde" the other day for 51 points!

Obviously they are hipsters and wearing watches ironically.

LOL, for real. When will people figure this out?

Not exactly true. Her emails did produce poetry: [www.allheadlinenews.com]

"I hate to say it, but..."

I love that when women have opinions, people think we're hostile.

Some people might have disagreed with certain of the author's points, but I don't believe anyone called him an asshole.

You say that as if you imagine we are all of one opinion.

Her minor deviation from the pop star ideal might make some guys uncomfortable, but it also makes the people who like her think they are so edgy and unsuperficial. Part of me is annoyed at this, and part of me is just amused.

Ain't that the sad truth. But I don't think it seriously undermines my point. Holding up Lady Gaga as an example of what's not traditionally beautiful seems only to reinforce the narrowness of the definition of beauty.

Lady Gaga, athletic? I'm not sure about that. She doesn't exactly have a lot of muscle tone. And she's thin enough to go out in public without pants whenever it damn pleases her.

Maybe she's not strictly "classically" beautiful, but I'd argue that she's close enough. Saying that her minor deviance from classical ideals makes her a "freak" is kind of insulting to the majority of us, whose appearances deviate much more from what's considered ideal.

"One of the things I loved most about her is that she is not traditionally beautiful."
