It’s better than they look with the alternative explanation: “I once went to school with someone who kind of looked like Rebel Wilson except she wasn’t that funny”.

Right? Who cares? Also, in the Defamer comments a lot of people talked about how she jokingly calls every birthday her “29th” birthday. But even if it’s not a joke and she does try to pass as younger, are people REALLY going to be mad at her for that? Women in Hollywood do that ALL THE TIME because it’s an ageist and…

coming forward and being like “Hey, this famous person you guys think is so GREAT...she’s lying about her age and she wasn’t EVEN FUNNY” just makes you seem like a small, salty bitch. Like, this is not Talented Mr Ripley levels of deception.

This is an interesting tidbit, but the headline and opening of the article reduce it to clickbait. Gravy browning is not gravy; it’s merely caramel color and salt.

Incredibly common. I think it goes back as far as the ‘80’s when fear of a big bad carb started. We used to call them “bagel boats” (actually Boca [Raton] Bagel Boats). The funniest was when the “We don’t scoop” signs started going up. My sister used to scoop her own so carefully that she left a uniform trench. Then,…

It’s so strange to me that people don’t understand “washroom”. I’m from the US and I’ve never once misunderstood that term even before I ever touched the BBC.

When I was in high school, some local, road-side hotel decided to convert their restaurant to a Chinese buffet. They called the high school to see if there were any “Chinese girls who would like a job.” Damn it. I was the only Chinese girl in the school, and actually, yeah, I wanted another job because college was…

First, 20,000 isn’t much of a trust fund.

That is a sad trust fund. It’s a nice savings account, though.

So she believes in free rent for herself, but charges rent to others (even though she “doesn’t need the money”)

Does twenty thousand dollars count as a trust fund?

Since I work in the Livestock Industry, albeit it more with beef and pork, I feel like I should comment here. The poultry industry has been vertically integrated for quite awhile now, with the pork industry following suit with packer/integrator ownership becoming ascendant from early 1990’s on. Beef however generally…

You have a reading comprehension problem. She literally stated that people she talks to will say these things to her. She isn’t talking about how feminist posts indirectly make her angry. She’s referring to people who get pissy when they ask the “Where do you work?” question and get “I’m a homemaker.” response.

But that’s why she keeps saying “present day women”. They aren't being told that en masse. Yes there are obviously massive issues, but she saying that people who didn't fight that battle are giving her shit.

Store Clerk: So, do you have the day off?

I divorced, fought the good fight for 23 years in the workplace including having my ass grabbed and fighting tooth and nail to be treated respectfully, and saved my pennies to be able to have this great opportunity. So, when those eyes roll and snarky comments are made...it kinda pisses me off.

I don’t think feminism and being a stay at home wife/mother should be considered incompatible…I mean, it sounds like you are bashing her for her choices to do that (and hey, it’s what makes her happy and fulfilled-which I think is kind of the point in the first place?) Tirades like these are most of what gives…

I totally agree with you, pink lemonade and magnolias (btw- my husband and I are moving South in 2 weeks so your SN makes me grin). I’ve been running the rat race for 3 years while he finished school, and now that he finally has a big engineering job lined up, I can’t wait to be the more domestic one. [I’ll still…

This is exactly the attitude I was talking about. Thank you for demonstrating.

I qualified my statement with some and not all working women/feminists act this way. Not all. I wouldn’t even say the majority. It’s just something I have run across and was wondering wtf?
