I cannot get over how incredibly gorgeous she is. To be that pretty with makeup means you have a good makeup person. To be that pretty without means you’ve been blessed. Semi-related, I pray that there will never be a day where I’m on an HD camera, even with makeup, let alone without.

Not really germane to the discussion but I’m just going to leave these here:

Alicia Keys can get away without makeup because, well, she’s really attractive.

Another point: we do mental accounting when we get a really good deal on something, and it can lead to spending money we wouldn’t have otherwise spent. i.e. You save $100 on a new laptop, so you trick yourself into thinking you have $100 to spend on something else.

“Another problem with couponing is that, according to research like this2003 study from NYU (PDF), it leads you to buy stuff you wouldn’t normally buy.”

Also, in my experience, supervising an unpaid intern far more work than the intern provides in return. Tell your boss that.

Not just class. What do you think the gender balance is for those unpaid media internships vs paid tech & finance internships? What a coincidence.

These two always make me yell at the TV. Always. Katrina I can more or less “tolerate” but something about Scottie’s perma-smile sends me into a rage-stroke.

What these types of “how to get by as unpaid intern” articles never cover is the expense that comes with existing beyond basic necessities, which is something that you HAVE to do as an adult. Like great, you have six roommates, your social events are potlucks, and you upsource goodwill clothing, so you are housed, fed…

KARA Welcome back :)))

A lot of people don’t seem to realize that unpaid internships (especially in high cost of living major cities) further exacerbate our already deep class divisions. I never could have taken an unpaid internship, my mom needed the half of my paycheck that I gave her to keep the bills paid...the only people who can…

there are already good trolls on a 1st post.

My guess is he's always been gross but people are more inclined to agree now his looks have faded.

The kind of fandoms that imagine a secret marriage with children are bizarre to me. There is a blog devoted to Canadian ice dancers that is very angry that they don’t reveal their secret marriage and 2 or 3 kids. Because the world cares so much about whether an ice dance team is married with kids that they have to…

I think most (maybe not all) feminists recognize that it’s possible to make good jokes about rape. It’s all about punching up versus punching down. The Reductress articles are perfect examples of rape jokes that punch up—the thing being made fun of is the perpetuators of rape culture, not the act of rape or victims of…

“They’re homely, they’re simple, and they’re about to reproduce!”

Already adding it to my schedule. This will be my first E! show other than The Soup that I watch willingly. Bring on the drama and mess. Here for it!

Molly should have gotten a sequel. Or prequel. Maybe we would have learned that she helped Rose get on her feet and assume a new identity in New York.

My complaint is that in real life, Margaret Brown threatened to throw Quartermaster Hitchens overboard if he didn’t take the lifeboat back to look for survivors. In the movie, Camera had her cowed and saying “you’re scaring me.”

WTF, dude.

Howard Stern has become quite the interviewer.
