It just sucks how gendered toys are now, in general. I remember my sister and I building actual erector sets and LEGO spaceship sets. We didn't give a shit what color it was or if it had butterflies. I don't know how much of it is the girls actually needing things to be pink or companies thinking something has to be…

I agree, though I have definitely noticed he doesn't have the same edge as he used to. I remember ten years ago during the height of the Bush years, he was absolutely riveting to watch and by FAR the best show on TV. Now, I don't know if I'm just too used to him, but it just doesn't feel like he has that same spark. …

I used to have a lot more AA clothes; honestly they really are great quality. But I also used to be built like a slender supermodel - now that I've put on a little weight, it seems pretty clear that these are not clothes intended for "normal" shaped women and designed to only fit the kind of girls in Dov's fantasies.…

I really have an intense attraction to him, that I tend to never admit in real life.

Or the poetry teacher! I can't NOT laugh every time I watch that. She is absolutely hilarious.

Yeah, totally.

I LOVED her memoir. And I'll echo someone else's comment who recommended the audio version. It was fucking hilarious and really insightful, such a great glimpse at how showbiz really works.

I've wondered this too. I have occasionally seen blind gossip floating around that he's supposedly gay so studios are very reluctant to cast him as a "leading man", which sucks. Personally I think his terrible acting is certainly far more of a problem than his being gay, but whatever the reason, it does seem like his…

That's a really good question. Honestly I could see them being at risk. I used to do HRT research and it appears that the women who are most at risk of adverse side effects are the ones who don't make a continuous transition into HRT from menopause. The women who mainly got cancer in the 2002 WHI study were generally…

Was that the one where he says "I don't have a drug problem; I have a reality problem, for which drugs are the solution"?

This is hilarious. Do you even realize how much more judgmental you sound than me?

Even worse: the people who do this during their wedding ceremony for "you may kiss the bride". SO GROSS AND RUDE AND DNJNDJKWJBDJbjkwh

I like it occasionally, when I'm about to have sex or in a make out sesh. It's totally hot with someone who uses it wisely. But whenever I've dated someone who goes totally overboard with frenching, it becomes a huge turnoff and I HATE it.

I... don't know how to feel about this. One thing's for sure - my mom's chihuahua is NOT living up to his potential.

Just wanted to say your analysis here is great and I really appreciated seeing something empathetic toward her. It's so clear to me that she is an incredibly, incredibly damaged person and I just cringe every time I see these stories.

I read this as Anderson Cooper at first and sat here scratching my head for an embarrassingly long amount of time.

Exactly. I cannot wrap my head around all the insane excuses people are using to defend the Soon-Yi relationship. Whether or not someone believes Dylan is one thing, and although I believe her, I can sorta "agree to disagree" if someone thinks he didn't. Innocent until proven guilty, blah blah, whatever. But to…

You have one of those families that I've always coveted. Anyone have interest in adopting a 29 year old woman?

NOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!

I have a theory that Puck from the SF season was a turning point in reality TV, in that they realized how much buzz and popularity a dramatic crazy cast member could create. So they followed that road, along with almost every other reality show. But you know what has always stuck with me about that season? Pedro. The…
