One of the best suggestions I've ever heard for racist/sexist jokes is asking the person to explain it to you because you don't get it. I'd love to see how that works out for the guys that can't explain why they like X or Y or why Z is so fucking funny. I doubt they'd actually go as far as to say, "HAHA BECAUSE WOMEN…

A guy at work was telling this ~outrageous~ story about how it was a "new thing" among the hip, young whippersnappers to invite guys to a baby shower, and ha ha ha how funny is that!! I ignored him, since the conversation wasn't directed at me and I didn't feel like getting tangled in that bunch of fuckery, but he…

I just had this thought yesterday when I read her article, but I think she's lost a bit of weight/lost the preteen roundness as she's gotten older and filled out her features a bit more (I feel like a total creep for using that phrase but YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN)

Also in the "strangely sad about this" club, and normally I don't give two fucks about celebrities. Just something about her acting and the way she presented herself in real life made her very easy to love, in my eyes. I still can't quite place why I'm so sad about it — I guess she just seemed like a really great,…

Reminds me of the whole "LOL EVERYONE LOOK AT AMANDA BYNES BEING AN ENTERTAINING WRECK OF A HUMAN BEING" articles swiftly turning into "A bloo bloo bloo won't someone think of Amanda while she gets help????"

IS SHE BITING HER LIP?

AND he threw Queen of my Heart Sarah under the bus by being an obnoxious jerkface. So pretty much, the grudge runs deep.

Absolutely! Dara was a worthy opponent, for sure. The only kid I wanted to totally demolish was Troy, who was a petulant little shit, and I was delighted to see him eliminated.

BUT CAN WE JUST TALK ABOUT HOW ALEXANDER IS THE UNRIVALED CHAMPION OF THE WORLD? Seriously, I love that kid.

Feminist interpretation: Launch him into the sun post-haste.

I can't fault people for pandering — their job is trying to make money, just like the rest of us. Celebrities are a business, it's just how they go about doing it that makes the difference in the end.

I'm really glad you decided to have this debate completely by yourself without actually having any of my input! You really saved me a lot of trouble!

Nah, you're right, it's definitely not totally innocent, but I think it's a little mischaracterized in the article with the way it's written. Using that as an example to illustrate the phrase before about the way kids bullied her feels a bit inaccurate.

[...] one of Keisha's teachers once asked her if it was spelled with a dollar sign.

Fuck this. All of this. Every last bit of it.

You are obviously not interested in civil discussion if you open up your comments with shitty, half-baked "judgmental assumption disguised as a hypothetical question." Fuck off until you can talk like a grown-up about this.

I think people miss a few key components. It's not just getting slapped and choked at random, at any time, by any person, in any old manner — at least it's not for me. It's when it's done by someone I love and trust, in a setting I feel safe in secure, in a controlled manner that does not escalate past a certain point…

"Whoring" mostly just implies to me that the person using the word is a giant asshole. *shrug*

MTE. They're basically a trigger warning for the entire haunted house. People who are okay with having those buttons pressed can consent to do so, and even change their mind with a safe word once they're in — the rest of us can give it a hearty "fuck that" and move on.

I wonder if you knew that women can consent to be slapped and choked because they think it's kinky and hot?

You also skipped the part in your description where you obviously cared enough to come write a comment calling Deen a douche. There's nothing wrong with caring, but writing a comment about how much you didn't…
