There is no aspect of the story that is not heartbreaking: this woman epitomizes how difficult it is to claw your way out of crippling poverty and the many "damned if you do, damned if you don't" choices one has to make in doing so. Her children were in real danger. Very real, very serious danger, and that should not…

H-U-N-N-Y? Yup, that's a pot o' corn syrup, silly bear. You'd know that if there was more than fluff in your head.

I am a fat person and have very acute sense of taste and my standards for nutrition for myself and my family are impeccable thank you very much.

The 'You're so cool' t-shirt is a reference to the movie True Romance, which is one of the best movies to come out of the 90's.

Oddly enough, most of Jezebel's criticism of his selection as hottest guy consists of dog-whistles about his non-white, Semitic characteristics.

I....do not understand your animus. Except possibly just: troll. Mindy Kaling's mother is an OB-GYN so she is kinda "writing what she knows" which: good for her.

Is French Montana a person or a place? I'm thinking about dating Denver Colorado... It's not the best place, but it's just a couple minutes away, so convenient for a booty call.

that photo makes gaga look like coachella and tumblr got drunk and puked all over a forever 21

I love my American friends, but it amazes me how they always get all "FREEDOM OF SPEECH IS SACRED! IF WE BANNED HATE SPEECH WE'D BE LIKE NAZIS! THERE IS NOTHING WORSE THAN PREVENTING SOMEBODY FROM SAYING ABSOLUTELY ANYTHING THEY WANT!"

Gawd, what we do without some tedious purist to lecture us in the most patronizing way possible about shit we already know?

At least she's consistent, unlike the conservative multitudes who are anti-choice and pro-death penalty. I can maybe, kind of, sort of, respect that position.

I agree with the poem being lousy (I cringe just thinking about her weeping while reading it aloud, god), but I think you got the rejection part wrong. Joey didn't reject her, she was popular and had popular friends, and even though she was pressured into doing something she didn't want to do out of fear of rejection,…

First rule of being an artist: if you ever want to make any good art, you first have to become comfortable with the fact that a lot of what you try to put out there will be very bad art.

Lazy dinner. Amy's brand chili. Mixed two cans medium chili with one can black bean chili. With some cheddar (husband had it with parmesan, gross) and club crackers.

Yeah, how dare a teenager act emotional and write bad poetry. I'm sure you were above such things.

It's not about the Cinderella stuff, it's about the Steve Harvey stuff and his nasty book, which says things like this:

I never saw a single Disney movie until I was 16 & got hired there. My mom was concerned that there were no princesses of color & didn't want me to feel like I wasn't beautiful/princess worthy because i wasn't blond & blue eyed.

Or just buy thick yogurt?

Never read "Think Like A Man" but I did see the movie and didn't hate it. Whatever bullshit relationship advice Steve Harvey - apparently a noted love expert now? - is selling, I totally get where Halle is coming from. I wasted plenty of time in my 20s stressing out about how my relationship was not "perfect." My…

Quit trying to profile women, especially a Black woman as 'crazy'. It buys into crass stereotypes.
