I dismissed someone’s comment who started “As one of the olds on Jez...” and went on about ageism or something.

I am so happy to hear I’m not the only person who gets so angry at that stupid commercial.

It really is finger-wagging textualized, huh?

Right?? When I’m at my parents I kinda like waking up early and catching some of it. Mo Rocca interviewing grandmas on how to make pierogis?? Sign me up!

Somehow, CBS Sunday Morning’s post about this popped up on my FB feed. The comments were just a stream of elderly white women (CBS Sunday Morning’s like only demographic) saying, “AGREE. We should LISTEN to other OPINIONS. Because of the CONSTITUTION. The “Feminists” should LEARN about this.”

Ohhhh, right right right. My confusion was a little optimistic I guess. I was operating on the assumption Putin was hoping for election chaos and Trump ineptitude. But obviously they’re gonna try and get more out of it if they can

Why are they trying to destroy the State Department? Like, I get the vendetta against the FBI.

This is #1 my problem with it. I already make myself a damn fine burrito once a week that costs less than $10. Their anti-chemical, science-illiteracy fueling bullshit underwriting ads on NPR pissed me off. And then they lie about actual life-threatening toxins? When I’m out and about there are just as many shitty

That part is KILLING ME.

I went with my parents to their Wisconsin lake cottage over the holidays. It was -20 the whole weekend. While my dad sat on a HomeDepot bucket out on the ice in front of the house my mom and I watched a local access Florida fishing show just so we could exemplify the ONE situation when watching fishing on TV wasn’t

A former colleague of mine shared on FB how she was just screaming at the SOTU. When I hear about that I’m just like, “Why would you even watch it?” I have increasingly little patience for this kind of performative disgust.

That’s why I recognized the name! My boyfriend and I had a warm Fall Catskill weekend last year and drove by it. He spent the whole trip calling everything the MeowMeow Mountains. Also, he’s from the Rockies so just, like, shook his head at the idea of these mountains.

At Thanksgiving a couple years ago my goofy uncle who’s some kind of middle HR manager at a GLOBAL SOAP COMPANY used the phrase “zero dark thirty” to describe something at work and I literally stood up, packed up my homemade pies him and his weird snooty girlfriend weren’t eating, and left the table. The only bootcamp

Yeah, wait a minute

My theory is the guys and gals of Splinter (including all the frothing ProgBro commenters) are only able to reach orgasm when they publish an article/comment critical of HRC. It’s a medical issue and we should all feel sorry for them.

I make a seltzer mocktail that’s just a champagne cocktail but, no surprise, seltzer poured over the bitters-soaked sugar cube rather than sparkling wine. I get to satisfy the habit of holding my cute champagne coup, and even the aroma is there, from the bitters.

My boyfriend and I crush light beer, like so much, Miller Light. I live in Upstate New York—in the summer it’s easy and light (ha, obviously) and cheap for after exercise and/or day drinking. And in the winter you can hole up in the apartment for an entire Friday night and get slowly and nicely trashed without

They nearly dislocated all their shoulders with how fast they wanted to pat themselves on the back after the Louis CK stuff became more than a blind item because they were sooooooo right to post those whispers and wait for their tips inbox to flood with The Truth.

Ha! I was just watching a Simpsons re-run and the idea that Homer puts butter in his coffee is used as a gross, fatty joke. Jokes on them! He was way hipster.

Like, I get that, in a perfect world, a dude should be able to walk into the lingerie section of Target and see what is up with the latest bralette trends or whatever. But I get to have a problem when he shows up (instead of the sales clerk) to answer my question about band sizes and has never worn a bra, had a pair
