Me too. Exactly. I’m still tearing up thinking about that trailer and that girl’s strength.

I think it was a perfect 30 mins.

Thank you, yes. My mother among them. After all of her constant postings about police and soliders and “true American heroes” and anti-islamic memes, she is silent on this.

Except to post a graphic that says “all thugs deserve slugs.”

How did I come out of this woman?

Yes, you’re right. And centered around women’s “problems” with their bodies. Because women feeling good about themselves doesn’t sell anything.

Maybe the snark is about how weird and random television is getting to be? Not discounting your thoughts at all, just adding.

Actually, it’s about ethics in flag journalism.

You wanna make some money? PLUS SIZES! We’re here, we’ve got butts and bucks, and no one will fucking sell us clothes, and certainly not in their stores. Make some goddamn work basics in my size and I will clean you OUT.

Jeezum crow. I watched the last segment, about her suit against Howard, and she is just clearly scrambling to come up with some kind of explanation. It’s almost un-watchable. She sounds like a teenager talking about why it’s not fair that they can’t use the car. So much annoyed sighing and fumbling over her made up…

Thank you for your thoughtful response. I hear what you’re saying. It’s not our business to pick it apart.

But like Anthony Weiner’s Carlos Danger stuff, the absurdity and hypocrisy makes for compelling reading, I guess.

She’s being bullied? How, exactly? I guess I don’t see bullying, but I’m not sure what the definition is. I mean that genuinely, not snark-ish, honest.

I think this woman made herself a pretty public figure, and made a lot of public statements about things that are turning out to be fabrications, and some people are…

You know, my boyfriend is in Philly. More and more reasons to move there...

Totes mutual.

This sounds absolutely perfect. I would love to celebrate someone’s little baby and actually meet the bundle after they’re here. I once attended a shower given by a couple who were planning to adopt - even though no baby was on the horizon yet. They just wanted to be prepared. It was...odd at best.

I had to attend SEVEN baby showers in about five years at my last job. Mostly for second and third kids. I wanted to stick myself in the eye with a diaper pin by #4...I stopped going - and contributing - after 5. The catering and cake weren’t even tasty.

And my department never celebrated any other kind of milestone -…

Honey, I got that in a Sephora the other day. I didn’t wear a lot of makeup, because it was early in the day and I wanted to buy some new eye shadow and go home and give it a whirl. I’m sure the Sephora Girl just saw frumpy fat lady and could not have held me in more disdain.

She would barely move out of the way of…

Cool, cool, cool. Trivia time! The Simpsons did a version of this storyline before in the episode“A Milhouse Divided,”

Me too! I thought I was the only one sitting her sniffling a little at the amazingness of that cookie face horse.

Her face must hurt after a while.

The Duggars?

I wonder this, too. I’m a 22/24 and a little shorter, and she just seems like a different size. If she’s a 26 or 28, can’t she just say that? That’s even more groundbreaking! Or is 22 as big as we possibly admit?

I get that in just about every other shop in the mall, where my big ass doesn’t fit. The epic shade I was hit with in Anne Taylor Loft (I was there with straight-sized friends) was unbelievable. Why can’t we all just be kind?
