Fucking fantastic—something to look forward to.

This is sad (sad sad, not pathetic sad).

This is encouraging. I have no desire to see this film, but my best friend (whom I never see—I'm in grad school and she lives in the burbs) has created a girls night out involving this film. I half-considered meeting them for drinks and cutting out before the film, but it sounds like I may be able to survive the…

I agree completely that proper nutrition and exercise are a wonderful way to celebrate the bodies we've been given. I wish you'd understand that a higher BMI and taking care of yourself with proper nutrition and exercise aren't mutually exclusive.

My co-worker is overweight and pregnant. This is her second child (the first one was born two weeks late, no gestational diabetes). She's young (under 34), works out every single day (sometimes twice), takes her pre-natal supplements, and eats a textbook "good pregnancy" diet (lots of folic acid, vegetables, lean…

Nothing pleases me more than someone admitting that they have absolutely no idea how vaginas work. Thanks for having the courage to reveal so much about yourself on a public forum.

Oh my goodness, wow. I'm so glad that things worked out and you and your family survived it.

Other newsflash, you can be overweight and have a baby who doesn't have gestational diabetes.

Where do you get fat celebration? I mean, really, give me a concrete example? Is it because someone deigned to call the kid cute? Would it make you feel like Jezebel was doing its part to promote "healthy lifestyles" if the author called the BABY an ugly motherfucker? I'm not really sure where you're coming from…

The point here is we don't know that. My friend just popped out an 11lb baby (no gestational diabetes, the mother is not obese).

Real Talk: You know none of this. Zero.

Are you really fat shaming a baby?

This, a thousand times this.

Sharting is not evidence of enthusiasm, it's evidence of poor sphincter control. Unless poor sphincter control is how you express excitement, you may want to rethink your word choice.

I thought the standard for libel or slander against a public figure required proof of malicious intent. Given Lilo and Dina's many shenanigans, that's going to be near impossible.

I wouldn't say really good food. I've yet to encounter anything approaching that level of acceptable in a Portland strip club.

Gah, I don't remember! I will, however, torture myself until I figure it out.

We have to know one another because I worked both of the locations.

No way! When did you work there?

I worked at a magazine store in Davis, CA and for a time, while his daughter lived in town, Tom Waits was a regular fixture. He was a quiet, nice guy. I was a little disappointed that his regular purchase was black and white greeting cards, as I was sort of expecting him to ask for Camel straights.
