I think the extraneous details were meant to make it feel more “real” but instead I was rolling my eyes at how fake it felt. You remember all that shit from 35 years ago?

I’ve said it before here, so this is just a reminder that Gwen Stefani is...just not smart. Not bright, not a critical thinker. She’s a cute girl with good style that she aped from the OC rockabilly scene (especially Latinas), and because she dressed counterculture and sang in a rock band, everyone just wedged her…

Gonna need a picture of that artwork, Chief.

The fact that she was so determined to remember both terrible parts of the story; the isolation and abuse AND the haunting—make it extra scary.

Men are a lot less likely to chat with female waitstaff when on first dates. And men are definitely less likely to chat with female passengers on the bus when with their girlfriends. Both of those are recipes for disaster for a man. Women do it more often. And men are more likely to put up with it. If a man does it,…

As a woman I can confidently say that if I’m engaging in a conversation with someone other than my date, it’s simply a conversation. Not all conversations are flirtatious just because they’re between two hetero people. I’ve dated outgoing men, they chat with the bartender and it’s fine, I’m not thrown by men who are…

I can’t attest to whether “many women” engage in the behavior you are describing for the manipulative reasons you are describing. All I can say is that I have never personally experienced that sort of behavior, witnessed any woman I know engage in that sort of behavior, nor have I heard any woman I know describing…

Women with men feel they can give you a compliment safely, because you will see they are with a man and won’t hit on them. Women alone or with other women who call out compliments (however G-rated) to strange men are risking their compliments being taken as an advance, and an angry response if they turn it down.

Semi-serious question; are you a masochist and did you post this so people would scream at you. Because that - that is disgusting.

Thank you! I was just coming here to say this! Violence towards the environment and dating much younger partners are two HUGE red flags! That doesn’t mean anybody who’s ever slapped a table or dated a younger partner is an abuser, but just about everyone who’s been in a violent relationship can describe how it started…

She is the Fyre Festival of 2020.

When I was 17, I was in love with a 31 year old with two kids. My 57 year old economics teacher and friend of my mother called me sexy, and I wanted to lose my virginity to him.

Wasn't the window thing in 'Last Crusade'?

Wait. Were we not supposed to like those women? Because I want each one to be my ride or die. 

You are absolutely correct about Tom Hanks and he’s the same reason I will not watch the Mister Rogers movie.

Finally Jez is doing the only reporting we deserve. You forgot about tennis players 

Wow this is a mean spirited fucking thread no matter how you slice it. I’m running away now.
