ugh, what a poor choice - yes it looks cool, but an escort card display has got to be functional, and this is just NOT. people need to find their names easily, and they will move cards around in the process. this setup would be a mess after the first two people come by!
Quantico!! super interested to see how that goes — not in small part because the LEAD is a woman, and not just any woman, a major Indian Bollywood star! (Priyanka Chopra) they sound like they dubbed her voice (maybe she couldn’t do the American accent?) but still rather interesting to see her show up in a primetime…
I decided against a bouquet altogether. I didn’t see the point of paying more money for a bouquet that I would hold in front as I walked down the aisle, hiding my also expensive and beautiful outfit.
haha you are not alone, i definitely yelled/whined that same sentence to my husband at some point in the planning process.
ugh i visited a house that had a full wall mirror directly opposite the toilet, in the powder bathroom. it was not okay. save that weirdness for your bedroom bathroom.
this commercial is all the more upsetting because Cottonelle is actually a great product! it’s perfect!
yup this about covers it. the key is, they don’t think muslims are anything like themselves! it’s powerful how strong of an effect the “other” concept can have in one’s psychology and thinking.
honestly, between this ever-increasing trend of islamophobia and the near-daily police killing of black men, i just wonder if i really want to have and raise my (muslim) kids in america anymore. but europe is not much better on the islamophobia front, and frankly i am american, i’ve only ever lived in nj/ny... where…
lol they look at their phones all the time during a mani not just because people are addicted to their phones anyway, but because they find it awkward to only look ahead at the manicurist. but i agree with you, people should talk to the manicurist! engage with people for the thirty minutes it takes to do your nails..
hmm, maybe thats why in the salon I go to, only the men do acrylic work. I never noticed it as a rule but now that you mention it, i’ve never had or seen a woman do acrylic sets.
Oh man, I totally scanned the article for her name before making my comment, but didn’t see it at all. I guess my eyes skip over the italicized photo credits at the bottom... Usually in newspapers (or online versions), aren’t the actual captions right below the photos?
is the Law & Order actress involved? Is this guy the Manhattan DA?
lol no but he rocks that full beard! :)
go Big Red! and nice choice too, these are easily the least-creepy clay mini-people on the thread :)
aw thanks!! I didn’t think anyone would even see my comment since I was kind of late to the game on this one. and yes, we matched cake motifs with some design elements from my dress - thanks for noticing that too!
we wanted non-white inter-racial figurines too and found these:
My husband and I really loved our cake toppers - yes plural, we had two. The one on top of the cake was a couple whose skin and hair color was customizable, which was important to us as I didn’t want a default white couple representing us on our cake. And the pose we picked ismeaningful to us, as my husband is always…
my husband and i do the same thing, decide beforehand what kind of trip we want this to be. but i’m concerned that you went clomping around Tuscany.. we are going there in July and planned to just chill and drink wine and eat for 5 days. do you have any suggestions?
Sincere request for Mark and other Jez writers - can you start using some kind of “INSIDE JOKE” tag on writeups like these? they don’t make sense to any readers who are not “in” on who you are or that you are joking.
i agree, everyone else on here seems to be reading it through a lens of “MARK AND ALLEN ARE SO ADORABLE” so they’re finding this writeup super cute and funny. i read it as someone who does NOT know Mark and Allen, just as a Jezebel skimmer who does not interact much in comments with the writers.. and i really did not…
