The reference to the litter is from an old commercial that features an actor who apparently often portrayed Native Americans on film and even went by the name "Iron Eyes Cody", but was actually Italian... who cries when he sees someone litter or something (i just did a lot of wikipedia-ing). So, it's a cheeky…

I'm from the south where I think it's a little more common to see guys with what are now considered feminine names, when they were previously traditionally male names (here's looking at you, Ashley!). I have to say I find it very attractive. I have no idea why. I love a guy named Kelly, or Whit, or Ash(ton or ley,…

I'm going to seem like a paid supporter since I've commented on like three different threads already, but I really do like her, and I'm also surprised that more Jez readers don't. She's definitely more talented than the average pop star.. she's been writing and selling her songs for some time now, since an early age,…

I really like Meghan Trainor, I will fully admit it out in the open. I guess I can get why people don't like this song, but I think it's funny and cute and obviously catchy. She has a few others on her album that are probably better, "What if I" and "Like I'm Gonna Lose You" which features John Legend, for example.

She's a strong songwriter (you have to admit her album is CATCHY as hell if nothing else), which few pop acts can say. She's been writing music for a long time before someone suggested she actually be the one to sing her work. I can't lie.. I love her music. I don't get the hate!

Everyone I know who has seen this version LOVES IT. That's what I don't understand about the argument that a multi-cultural cast wouldn't "sell". I call bullshit. It's a fairy tale, people. It's fantasy land. Casting doesn't have to "make sense". A white dude and a black lady can have an Asian son, and everyone can…

Every. single. one. of my friends has had a "bachelorette weekend" where attendees have to shell out $500-1000, and as a bridesmaid, that shit adds up with all the other stuff you have to pay for. I desperately did not want mine to be that way, but also had the feeling of... well, everyone else did it and I deserve to…

uh, hate to break it to you, but there are a fair amount of "Greek system types" that also read Jezebel ;) The two are not mutually exclusive.

I did not enjoy all of the dick paraphernalia at my bach party, (with the one exception being a dick shaped funfetti cake that my friend made, which was delicious) however I did enjoy having giant plastic diamond shaped rings which opened up to be shot glasses. My crew demanded free shots in those things everywhere we…

Same. We were not that crazy at all. Also... is this "polish week" an actual thing at more than one school, because I've never heard of it but the article is of course treating it like it's a normal sorority thing, in order to make us all look insane. We are not all insane :)

I AGREE! I feel like Spanx just moves my flab forward, and I actually look thinner without it. Everyone thinks I'm crazy but I stand by my beliefs.

I mean... I once took a hamster to the vet when it looked like she was in distress, which it turns out she was. I shelled out about $150 to have her suffering relieved. I don't think that's too irrational, I think it was the kind thing to do for the poor little animal that was in my care.

Spicy. Chicken. Sandwich. That is all.

I think the fact that the music is recorded for the film is also to blame. It's true for pop stars everywhere. You may be able to hit the note on a good day, but if you can't do it consistently, it shouldn't be a part of the song.

It's hugely annoying to me that disney (and musical theater) has become all about these ridiculously high belted notes. If super human vocalist Idina Menzel can't consistently hit them, there's a problem. If you listen to the songs in the Little Mermaid and Aladdin, you'll hear a lovely mix and head voice, not these…

Not that this is really that important to the story, but I didn't realize a retroverted/retroflexed uterus is rare. I have it, my mother has it, a few friends of mine also have it.. My doctor just casually mentioned it after an exam once (as in, here's an interesting fact about your body but not something to be…

I literally can't even with this.

With Uber, they tell you exactly what the multiple will be, and make you actually type in the number, so you 100% do know what the rate is. It sucks, but it really is very clear. She would have had to type in 9.0 and agreed to the payment.

Yepppp - have to agree here. It literally makes you type in the multiple, and tells you what the minimum fare is, so there's no way she wouldn't have known. Uber is a business, not a charity or a public service. It's not like they took all the cabs and subways away. I always think it's crazy when people get upset…

I'm curious, does this take into account the rising costs of movie tickets? I mean, in NYC alone its gone from like $9 when I first moved here over ten years ago to about $15 for a regular ticket.
