@AndThenTheresMaude: Do you seriously not understand that that is harming fat people by perpetuating the negative stereotypes that LEAD to fat discrimination in the workplace?

@Lady formerly of the Bananas: No. We do not need to acknowledge that our views are the minority when they are backed up by science, just like I would not feel the need to acknowledge someone's view that being gay is a lifestyle choice. Being overweight, for the majority of people, is not a choice, as science has said…

@Lady formerly of the Bananas: Well the problem is, fatism is becoming similar to racism, in that the negative stereotypes perpetuated by society are starting to affect people's ability to get jobs, their access to fair health care (doctors automatically assume the fat is the problem), and their ability to do well in…

@AndThenTheresMaude: It's been shown that if you're overweight, you're more likely to be passed over for jobs / promotions, people perceive you as slovenly and with bad personal hygiene, children are bullied more in school...no, I don't know of cases where people are being murdered, but there's certainly an…

This guy has a comedy website where he does all sorts of things like this. I question whether most of them are even real. His website's not loading right now, but this is my favorite one:

You're paranoid!

Hmmm - I think I may need the Ex Blocker one to stop me from looking at my ex-friend's profile all the time. I have her blocked in my news feed, but I can't resist!

He hasn't really willingly participated in it, but what about all the objectification that goes on about Obama? Objectification of public figures is really nothing new.

@lauraholtsteele: Yeah, that's true, and I should have put it in another paragraph. The same old stuff was more referring to people like Steve Carrell and Hugh Laurie, both of whom I love, but also are on shows that I consider way past their prime.

@fabulousrobots: Yeah, I know - but that stuff kind of kills me! Terry O'Quinn probably had so much more screen time than Matthew Fox this season, and yet he gets submitted in the supporting category because...he's not as stereotypical? He's not a safe choice? I dunno. It bums me out!

Glee got way too many nominations, and I don't think it nor Nurse Jackie should be in the best comedy section, though that's been discussed before. Having dramedies in there ends up leaving out genuinely great sitcoms like Community and How I Met Your Mother. I'd be interested to know which episode was submitted for…

@rstratton: Religious sexual repression in Irish Catholic culture and the way it manifested itself through hyper-sexualization in literature, particularly in Ulysses.

@hcd: No, she's Jewish. It's specifically said that she's of Spanish Jewish descent. (Clearly I'm a nerd who wrote my thesis on Ulysses.)

@LoSpaz: But a sexy cyclops! Seriously I have so many friends with crushes on her - take it as a compliment! :)

I was out at a bar in Atlanta with a bunch of friends and a guy came up to me and said:

@HannahBethD: Word. Not to mention, back when Britney was wearing her skimpiest, controversy-courting outfits, she was at the very top of her game! That nude sparkly body suit was a huge deal and she looked amazing in it.

Even celebrities you admire and think are smart used ghostwriters to write their memoirs. It's not something to try to shame people over.

Couldn't she just not be wearing heels or something?

@TobaccoFlower: Oooh yes do! I don't have time to read it...

@maggiethecat: Yeah - he just came off to me as very weird during that interview, and she seemed genuinely upset and sad. For whatever the other girls said about her during the show, one thing I always thought was that you could tell she was totally starry-eyed about him.
