The article didn't shame her for her weight, it shamed the producers of such a clearly unhealthy show.

$465?! I was reading this article expecting the amount to be much much more. I don't know how much the debt was at that school in Utah but if it was even close to this amount that makes it even more ridiculous that the school would be throwing away the kids' food over a few hundred dollars. I was seriously expecting

The guy tried to sue his teacher through a human rights tribunal because the all-women nature of the class made his nervous and thus refused to go to class despite the attendance requirement for a decent grade, that he full well knew of, and is expecting to be treated extra-special because of it.

"My mom said I'm special! Why isn't that a federally protected class???"

As a dude, I can say there's no experience more harrowing than someone failing to reward my mediocrity.

Look at you using critical thinking skills!

You know, I've sat in the first lecture for a class and gotten the distinct impression that spending two hours every week sitting there for the next four months would be overwhelming. I reacted by dropping those classes and quickly signing up for something that seemed more tolerable.

Exactly, and even in his stark photos Kern manages to bring warmth, unlike Uncle Terry's repetitive pose-in-front-of-a white-wall-in-harsh-lighting crap. And for fuck's sake, stop putting yourself and your goddamn thumbs in all your photos! Predatory issues aside, he's just moronic, a straight-up jackass.

Richard Kern was photographing "bizarre sexual situations" long before anyone gave a shit about Richardson, and I've never heard that Kern has been anything but 100% professional. It can be done.

I think Roth was trying to demonstrate edge as an author and she could have done that by writing something real & compelling or

He looks like Lonely Island describes the Creep.

I could understand why the industry doesn't want to part with him if his photos were gorgeous works of art or something (that wouldn't make any of this ok, but I'd understand) but from what I've seen he has the aesthetic sensibilities of a drunk, horny frat boy who brought a camera with him on spring break.

Does he only own two flannel shirts? Or is his closet filled with a bunch of the same two shirts?

For a member of a faction that abhors vanity to such an extent that they ban mirrors, Tris sure does wear a looooottt of mascara.

Don't forget the anti-choicers!

I can't wait to see how the MRAs spin this one.

Mandatory showers for all 6th graders. I don't care that you don't think you smell. MANDATORY.

I've been looking for an upscale place to shamefully shed my uterine lining for awhile now.

Yes, but does it come in red?
