God, if your child can't handle seeing the cover of GQ, you probably can't even let them watch TV. Or use the internet. Or give them a cell phone. Or let them have friends. Or go out in public at all.

I thought it was a cute way to respond to the rumors, and probably much more effective than just flat out denying them.

It's OK to be gray!

Why would someone follow you? Is it like Twitter and they get notifications when we comment on a post?

I was never a star and I don't even care. Thank you guys. Onward my gray comrades!

Yes, product placement works very well. There are studies that show how effective that subtle subliminal advertising can be.

Counterpoint: if a man says something like that to me, and it's in a respectful tone without leering and there's no weird hovering around after the fact, I don't mind at all. I have a hard time accepting compliments, but when it genuinely seems to be in good faith, I'll take it, put it in my back pocket, and move on…

Have you read the books? Or even seen the show? What gay character is a "joke?" Maybe the way GRRM writes about sex generally isn't your bag, but there's no marked difference between straight and bisexual/homosexual sex scenes IIRC. Oberyn and Ellaria are bisexual and glamorous, and have a long, passionate…

I agree (although I think it's okay to ask very popular authors to think about broaden their perspective). It would be great if he felt comfortable with and capable of writing from the POV of a gay person, but if he doesn't, he doesn't. We should support authors who can write about the things we're interested in…

For a good reason. In Latin America, racial categorization stinks of colonialism. Spanish colonies were segregated under a strict caste system, 16 of them to be precise, each caste with different rights and obligations. For most Latin Americans, asking for someone's race seems like a question straight out of the 16th…

What were you trying to prove beyond acquiring an anecdote that you could tell at her expense? I mean, she was wrong to call POC African Americans, but it seems to me, you were more interested in making fun of her than supplying her with a useful lesson.

Sweden has a tendency to put its head in the sand when it comes to issues of race, culture, and immigration. From what I have heard from native swedes, the complete lack of racial language in their press leads people to make what I would consider racist assumptions. The press reports on 'young men' burglarizing a…

I don't disagree with your point but at least in NYC if you are say, Trinidadian American or Jamaican American... or Nigerian American or Ghanian American... those mean different things than African American. African American is reserved for all of decendents of the US slave trade whose histories have been erased - …

I would just like to add that I've seen this same sentiment—the idea that eliminating or banning something will make it go away—played out over and over again in Jez comments by people who want to get rid of the "race" category for the Census because "we're all human beings and love and rainbows and unicorns and…

This will not end well. See: France.

The clap is gonorrhea, not HIV. Also, I recommend that you don't throw your penis into women, with or without a condom. That doesn't sound very pleasant.

For people not from Kansas City, just a heads up that that was the most outstanding call Royals color announcer Rex Hudler has done this year.

And then Tony Stewart ran him over and killed him

God, I wish President Obama would go radical socialist... just for like a month. Come on!

This is about as comprehensible as Kinja.
