Thank you Black Santa!!!

I'm of the same *no-worries-if-it-doesn't-pan-out* mindset, to be honest. Doubly so because Jennifer Saunders ended up with a massive — and very costly — creative flop on her hands when she wrote the Spice Girls musical *Viva Forever!* for the London stage last year. The reviews were horrendous and it closed within…

I completely agree that it isn't shopable, but as a former F21 merchandiser, I can assure you that according to the company, they are organized (in a crazy nonsense way).

I am really surprised that everyone is saying how cheap they are! We have one in the mall and it is SO expensive. Hm.

Seriously, genius.

Anyone else fretting about the inevitable 'see, she isn't funny' that's going to result? Whoever she is, she's going to be highly scrutinised and any sketch she does that is less than stellar will be evidence that she shouldn't been hired in the first place.

Wait, I know Veronica Osorio! She's hilarious. Here's a sample:

Well, I can't pretend like I wasn't warned.

Glad you enjoyed. Also, 5 clever points for you for "Brit-ish."

I recently worked at Lisa Frank (yes, it's still up and running) and was, initially, so excited. I'm young, so getting a job with a "big name company" seemed like a god send. "Rainbow Gulag" couldn't be more true. First, there were three creative staff, two digital librarians, a woman who worked with product, and…

I assumed she went to Cranbrook (Kingswood) for grade school/high school, not for the graduate program.

This was really good and Callie's piece on slutshaming was really good. I'm not sure what's behind that, but whatever it is they should do more of it.

One editing nitpick: she used the "business acumen" quote from Karen twice (same exact paragraph).

Well c'mon now, she did order classic native american symbols like the unicorn and the koala bear...

Oh my. I'd read that the kids' names were Hunter and Forrest, but I hadn't tried to put them together with the last name.

Once, when I was about 7, I loved Lisa Frank stuff, and my mom encouraged me to write a letter to the company and told me that in return I might get a letter back or maybe even a coupon or some stickers.

I think the fact that she started out by ordering native craftspeople to produce what she wanted and selling them at a profit was.... maybe an early indicator that she wasn't going to be the worlds greatest employer. :/

I lived in Tucson in the 90s, with lots of graphic designers and artists as friends, and it was well-known that the last company in town you would want to work for was Lisa Frank. They had a perm-ad in the local paper the whole time I lived there. Also, anyone who would name their kids Hunter and Forrest Green are…
