What is a 25 year old doing running a major event like this? I see this all the time when a company brings in some young overconfident kid who talks a big game, who went to a nice school, has the right connections and knows how to speak hipster. Almost every time they screw up so critically someone with experience has…

I think it’s 1 of 2 situations. Most likely, I think she meant her rent is around $1200. I.e. just saying she was ripped off for a fair amount, and not her literal rent money. The only other thing I can think is that they just used credit cards because I did know people that bad with money when I was in college (my…

I really hope she meant “like this is as much as my rent...”

I bet $1200 that once loaded, those wristbands can’t be refunded, forcing you to burn any leftover money.

Far and above, the easiest way to avoid driving under the influence in Iowa is to simply never go to Iowa.

Just FYI, the producers knew about Zeke being trans, he told them after he was cast. They discussed how to handle it, with Zeke asking to be in control of the info, and would disclose it if he wanted to. After he was outed, the show worked with him on how to handle the episode, which he chose to allow to be aired the…

Yes. If she writes a memoir after divorcing Weiner, I would read that. I have no interest in reading a memoir she writes while still married to him.

Meh, I don’t think Aaron had to give the kids more than he did if he didn’t want to. They were adults and there’s no reason adults should expect a penny of inheritance from their parents, even if they were raised with a silver spoon. Faced with the news that they were only going to get $800k each, they had a choice,…

But seriously, do these morons grasp the difference between the ACC and the NCAA? What about the concept of leverage, and their utter lack of it in this situation? Notions like “cause and effect” and “consequences” are clearly beyond their feeble grasps.

Does United not have a single PR person? Someone, anyone who could put some platitudes on cue cards and shove this guy in front of the camera? One of the cops is already being investigated, how hard would it be for United to do the whole “we are deeply disturbed by the incident and will look into it” song and dance?…

I have normal hearing but like to watch things with captions on in case the dialogue gets hard to follow.

Came here to say the same thing, she was a big dreamer, over the top and prob would have not acted natural at all

I’ve never read Anne Of Green Gables but I feel this characterization calling to me.

Well, shit. This is disappointing to read. I was hoping this would become the one true adaptation. I am not a devotee of the CBC miniseries. While it was faithful in the essential ways, Anne is awkward AF in the books and Megan Follows was too poised, too polished and just too mature to really be Anne for me.

She does. That look when she’s assessing Kim’s claim of not wearing makeup was pure Kanye. Adorable.

Well, of course, you can choose not to get the $400 mixer. That’s either there for people who want to drop a lot of coin on a gift (or for a group of people to in -on together.) I don’t think gifts should be required (I tried to discourage gifts but try telling a bunch of southern folks to not give you wedding…

It’s such a tiny one though. Especially since SCOTUS is now likely lost for a generation, and the damage done to our standing overseas is piling up faster than we can keep up.

Can you imagine being a white “progressive” who’s actually proud of the way they “called the DNC’s bluff” while people of color, women, and the LGBTQ community fear for their health and safety?

...conservative candidates such as Clinton...

What do you mean “called their bluff”? Dem voters, especially minorities and women, clearly chose Clinton over Sanders. By a large margin. The choice was simple. Vote D and avoid exactly what we have now. White Millenials couldn’t deal with that fact and now deserve the haranguing from articles like this.
