Oh, thanks, but it’s not so bad that I care enough about it to take corrective measures. It was pretty thick to start with, so its being thinner isn’t too big a deal. Plus I’m leery of hormones, as I tend to react badly to them. I do appreciate the info, though, and will tuck it away for possible future reference.

Now they tell me. I wore my hair long for most of my life, and frequently kept it in a tight ponytail or a bun. My hair started thinning noticeably five or six years ago. While I do think that’s mainly due to standard menopausal hair loss, now I’m thinking that pulling it back so much probably didn’t help any.

Yeah, I try to be kind, but then I remember this, and it sets my teeth on edge all over again.

Yeah, his wife died in 1991. As much as I admire his having curtailed his career at that time to focus on his children, I don’t think that has any bearing on his career choices now.

“Not once did I say anything homophobic.”

The level of sheer ego here is what blows my mind. Look, you jackass, your signature in your official capacity has nothing to do with your personal approval. No one gives a shit what a county clerk thinks about their lives. All you were ever doing was certifying that whatever you were signing was valid according to…

Where did you get that idea?

No, local newswipes, the book is not generating controversy. This chuckleheaded woman is generating controversy, and picked this book to do it with. If it hadn’t been this book, it would have been something else, because there’s no way someone who is “offended” by the mere mention of genitalia wasn’t going to find…

I really don’t think it’s an accident that he picked a woman alone. He wanted to look like a badass, without risking actually getting the shit beaten out of him by someone his own size. He’s a coward and a bully, and I can’t believe anyone is defending him.

The kind where he didn’t watch the video before commenting, I’m betting.

Wait, why are people making fun of the concept of civil disobedience, i.e. disobeying laws to which one is morally opposed? Huckabee expressed it in an idiotic way, but the idea that one has essentially a duty to disobey unjust laws is the backbone of American dissent. Yes, it’s absurd and loathsome to compare Kim…

That's odd, it was clear to me immediately that you were quoting other people for purposes of making fun of them.

Not really. It’s what he’d say if he were consistent — but he’s not at all consistent.

It’s nice that you’re sure I “don’t get it”, and presumably you do, but the thing is, Cauty was quoted in 1995 as saying, “Every day I wake up and I think ‘Oh God, I’ve burnt a million quid and everyone thinks its wrong’,” and now just doesn’t talk about it anymore, while Bill Drummond expressed in interviews in 2004…

The result of a regrettable laboratory mishap in which some of Cher’s genes fell into a tub of Kardashian Beauty Whip Lash Mascara.

I was just thinking about this a few days ago, what with Dismaland and Jimmy Cauty having work there. I think if you asked him now, he’d say he wishes he hadn’t done that, at least the million-burning part.

I hate that this happened to you, but I’m so glad that you know the truth so clearly: you did nothing, absolutely nothing, to cause this to happen. And bravo on your planned slutwalking activities.

I’m trying to tell myself it’s just as well I don’t really know you, as I would shortly double in size, and it’s helping, but not much. If by any chance we ever should meet, we can exchange baked goods. I only make one thing, but it’s killer — chocolate chip cake.

It’s a draw. I just wish these assgaskets knew what they were missing out on, so as to feel appropriately castigated.

I’m trying to decide which one would hurt worse.
