babe this whole thing is a joke

“Just get on with filling my heart with hope and then get off my lawn!”

You are correct: Teenaged girls are the kick-assest they’ve ever been

“Only I get to decide if I’m humiliated or not — why would people assume I am humiliated by my own breast, nipple or body?” she said. “I didn’t realize my boob was such a big deal — it was nothing to me.”

I didn’t think I cold love Obama anymore than I did. God, I was wrong. And for whatever troll comes in here talking about cloth diapers, cleaning those gets expensive too. Money for the Laundromat, getting to the Laundromat, etc. ..

I think she seems perfectly nice. But (expletive) her for bragging about selling books when she’s already rich enough to have endless time to write them and then easily get them published.

Next time I see a guy in cargo pants I’m going to force him to build me a house. I mean, walking around looking all probably-owns-a-hammer...what did he think would happen? #CarpenterLookingAssBitch.

GO girl. When I was younger, I used to dress in flannel shirts and jeans to avoid attention and instead of catcalls, I got insults, and even “well-meaning,” “Why do you dress like that??” Uh, because you told me to dress down if I didn’t want your fucking attention. Here it is, now STFU.

I am confused. Why would I force a person to play basketball with me if he/she was dressed like a basketball player? Does that happen? Forced basketballery?

What is Kanye right about?

Kanye is the one who defended a serial rapist, though. That pushes a little past annoying. So I’m not sure equating the two is very honest.

Maybe. But I’m on Swift’s side. I know she’s a vanilla white girl we all roll our eyes over, but she’s one of many women who have to put up with this shit from men looking for cheap plugs.

the weird reverse snobbery at people who spend less also silenty alienates (at least some of) people whose entire yearly earnings and budgets are less than what you spent on your entire wedding.

Reform would be less stressed about the rules. Our synagogue is Conservative, which is definitely more strict.

That's kosher style. We had our wedding at a synagogue, so we had to follow strict rules. Our meal had to be either meat or dairy, cooked by a kosher caterer, and supervised during production and plating by a Rabbi.

I don't get angry or annoyed when people talk about their inexpensive weddings, and I've never engaged in one of those threads on here or elsewhere. But I do find myself getting a little defensive when there's so much judgement around spending a bit more for a wedding, assuming we're spoiled, idiotic, going into debt…

Is a lentil wedding cheap because lentils are cheap, or are you talking about something else? :) thanks for any explanation!

You knew what this post was about before you came in though. So why the outrage?

I get what you're saying, I do. But I think Jessica's point was to create just one place where people could share this without getting the "well I picked wildflowers and put them in mason jars and had a $20 wedding in a local park" posts - because they do get obnoxious and make people feel bad for what they chose to…

Annnnd most of the comments are still people talking about how their wedding was/will be so much cheaper. C'mon! I wanna hear about excess, not sanctimony!
