My best friend and college roommate for three years is a conservative, and was a member of the college Republicans. He was (and is) an exemplary conservative and one whom I wish the party was full of.

Is there where I get to complain about how *after* I quit my job at Bank of America, I found out I was blocked from a promotion because, despite my boss, his boss, and several peers recommending me enthusiastically, the boss above them had an uncomfortable boner for me and said my attire was inappropriate?

I work on the same floor as the President of the company so I tend to dress up a bit more because she’s always walking about and there are always guests and big meetings. But honestly I kind of like having “work clothes” and “fun clothes” - putting on a more professional outfit and heels helps me feel more capable and…

Her rant about the cabbage babies was glorious!

The single most annoying thing to me about white privilege is that the default human being as constructed in the popular imagination in this country is a white person. The fully realized lives of the rest of us is so rarely seen on-screen. We really don’t exist unless we are attached to a white person (see the Magical…

Fun thing to think about: Baha Men’s “Who Let the Dogs Out” was released in 2000, when these students were 1-2 years old.

Wait you didn’t finish the story about the prank. Then they put chili peppers on the girls lady parts right? Or beat up a homeless man? Or called each other’s parents and said their child died in a horrible car accident right? Because otherwise...I’m just not seeing the joke.

Relevant xkcd...from 2011:

I’m getting the sinking feeling that this guy was probably a seasoned child rapist. He explained away all the signs of sexual abuse and got to get his hands on children over and over again for more “treatment.” Very devious and sick of this guy.

“The taste for novel-reading is like that for liquor or opium.”

Ms. Grundy? Really?!?!

Exactly!! Like, I feel AWFUL about myself, and I really feel kind of sick all the time because of my weight, but the attention once I got thin was just so fucking horrendous...it’s hard to fight a body that wants you to get fat again when you kinda want to get fat again too...

I’m a D cup, my best friend is an A cup. When we first met (college) she was like, “I’d kill for some of what you have!” and I was like, but I’ve been getting sexually harassed on the street since I was 11 and someone just grabbed them on the subway the other day, so ... and she was like “Um. My bad.” I actually quite…

Hmmm. Curious that your father just HAPPENED to leave Iran probably before Kim Kardashian was a thing. Interesting timing. I now am 99 percent convinced that you were raised as a sleeper agent to kill Kim Kardashian our country’s GREATEST asset against global terrorism. SHE’S ALL WE HAVE. Scratch that. Make that 100…

This is bullshit of the highest order. Kanye is the Taylorest Swiftiest in the universe and he made that bitch famous and he invented leather jogging pants! Where my damn croissant!!!

Zac Efron has my respect with that tweet.

What do squids think about? None of us will ever know

I don’t care about the “appropriation”. In the 70s, the mood was definitely “wear everything”. Nobody Black gave a shit when White people got perms and did Afros. It was all good.
