Yeah I agree, and I should have mentioned that I wouldn't have cared if she didn't "choose" anybody, since that obviously wasn't the point. This whole series was so emotionally exhausting that I was a wreck after 2 days of not being able to put it down.

You can definitely see this difference in intention when you read the synoptic gospels (Mark, Matthew, Luke)—even though they are closely related, each author clearly has their own agenda to follow, and tell what is essentially the same story in very different ways (often changing crucial details).

Thank you! I'm also an atheist, but I really try to distance myself from stuff like this. Most of the atheist humor I hear these days only indicate that whoever comes up with it knows about as much about the Bible or the diversity of Christianity as your typical fundamentalist nut job.

Yeah, I didn't really see how the tweet cited was particularly outspoken—really depends on what kind of meaning you think "hmmm" holds. Hardly making a scene.

Well, you have to wonder if many Christians walking by this would really even give a shit. Since only the sticker says 'fiction', I assume that only that particular book/books in the store even had it—either by mistake or a joke by an employee. I assume most people would shrug it off? This is only one guy's twitter

Yeah, this confused me as well. I assume that since it was only a sticker, only that particular Bible had one? Maybe just the ones in that store?

So true, I admit that in the past I've felt resentment towards other women that I feel are better than me in some way (always internally, though, I don't ever confide feelings like that in anyone else). Nowadays, I usually try to turn that into genuine admiration instead of negativity.

Definitely. I'm not really much of a picture taker but I'm starting to think I really need to make more of an effort. Somebody else may want to see them one day=)

Yeah, but Peeta and Katniss are survivors, Peeta GETS her=P But to be honest she could have chosen either of them and I would have been happy.

B-Totally noticed this too.

That's a good point that I never even considered. I definitely would have loved to see selfies of my mother and grandmother.

Yeah it's definitely stuff like this that makes me disagree with Erin. I feel like selfies can be for all sorts of reasons, and while it's true that some people seek validation, some people may just want to celebrate themselves. I'm happy that your friend is happy and confident=)

I know right?! I don't usually have opinions about celebrities, but whenever I read anything about her I just like her even more, she's so well-spoken and intelligent. I really hope I see her in more stuff real soon—and that goes for the rest of the cast of OITNB

I was put off by that too.

A lot of people do tip on what it would have been, but many others tip on the adjusted bill. I'd say roughly 50/50

Yeah I've definitely heard all different things from men about make up. My bf doesn't say much about what I put on my face, but I know he doesn't like the way lipstick (or even balm) feels on his lips but usually he sucks it up

Oh, see I read it as "canned". And honestly that's even worse

Eight?! I can't believe they would expel an eight year old for something like that, that's bananas.

Thank you for bringing up comfort! I have a hard time wearing anything else now because I refuse to be uncomfortable

Same! I think the bright lip is one of the best looks out there. I've never met anybody that doesn't like it. Whenever I wear my Candy Yum Yum I get nothing but compliments.
