Men who say “Women aren’t funny” are usually using “laughs at my jokes” as the sole metric of funny, which makes the whole thing even dumber. Like, the job of women is to receive jokes. Say, offer a well lubricated environment for entry and a welcoming womb for growth.

Maybe the sisters understand each other and have a bond that makes it possible that the dinosaur isn’t trying to be the center of attention but knows it would bring even more joy.

Well, damn. I actually feel an ounce of affection for the kid.

Now I’m imagining a poll of Italian mothers — if you had to choose, would you rather your son was gay or that he converted to Scientology? I’m guessing 99/100 would go with gay.

Do you ask this question on Rich’s Dr. Pimple Popper articles? This is the meta comedy of Rich’s work. 99% of it makes little sense on a women-targeted site. His bosses troll him — Rich has to find something that somehow relates ever so tangentially to womanhood to write about; then Rich trolls us — with articles…

demanding his public shunning.

Somebody is still starchy Gina Gershon got tired of discussing Showgirls with him.

You must be a very young gay man if you think there’s anything controversial about sensing Travolta is gay.

Drunken misbehavior is our love language at Arrowhead.

Which one is Robb Stark’s boyfriend?

Maine is the prettiest place I’ve visited that I would never want to live. People are frosty.

Typo?

Had Bernie run a disciplined and organized campaign, he would have won.

Hillary was uniquely toxic and demonstrably incompetent at running a disciplined campaign. Hillary in a vacuum is a good public servant.

I’m still tinkering with what occupation to assign to the protagonist of my modernization of Mayakovsky’s The Bedbug. I didn’t expect Stephens to start lobbying for the part.

Me too! Except I wondered “is that a screenshot from SecondLife?” because I am old.

Good for them. Desperate times call for desperate measures and the future of reproductive freedom is fucking bleak.

I remember when a nice Jezebel commenter included a link to an online streaming site where one could watch this new British series called Downton Abbey. I like to think of that moment as peak piracy.

I’ve heard wannabe groupies say that, but never an actual musician. For groupies, it’s a dumb status thing. For a musician, saying the ideal choice would be a lead guitarist is essentially the same as announcing one’s desire to be a 1950s housewife.

I’ll vote for any old coot who is the D nominee, but I’d argue that the disadvantage is people thinking we can’t do better than someone in their 70s. I mean, I think Warren is probably the best candidate, but I also think she knows that it’s ridiculous that we can’t find someone younger than her to do the same things.
