"Flooding in" might not be the best turn of phrase to use in an article about a Titanic replica.

By cutting off Lena Dunham's response, you ignore how ridiculously childish it was.

The yellow is. . . okay? I guess? It's not particularly flattering, but that's probably the best thing she's ever worn.

What a shame, since her fashion sense is truly awful.

Poor dentil hygiene is unacceptable for people born rich.

something is very wrong with her makeup

Lindy West does not approve of this message.

The beach is public. The sea wall that protects her house from falling into the ocean due to erosion is not and never has been, and also isn't a beach.

No. The situation is that the area directly in front of her house on the ocean is a sea wall built to avoid erosion of the bluff on which her house sits (which, interestingly, is the highest vertical drop to the ocean on the U.S. Eastern Seaboard). For years people have hung out on those rocks to smoke, drink,

(a) That op-ed is not written by a neighbor. That guy is a columnist for a local paper. Watch Hill is a fantastically expensive place to live. No house that's neighbors with Swifty is worth less than, conservatively, $5mm. Math, do it. (b) Taylor Swift sucks, but it sounds like this has nothing to do with her and

You're just wrong, actually. It's not even her kicking response, which was wildly childish and sad. It was the initial failure to treat another person—a stranger!—with minimal courtesy and respect, and then getting angry when that stranger acknowledged her basic failure to act like an adult person.

I like Lindy's writing and sometimes her ideas, too, but I just can't with the idea that somehow this dude's offense was worse because Lindy had a hangover. Um, you knew you were flying at 7a.m.? And also, you were rude to the dude? And other people aren't mind readers who can anticipate your woes and respond

Remember: Everyone should have known that Lindy was hungover, and been extra nice to her as a result.

Sounds like you were rude. He was rude to tell you you're rude, but saying excuse me when you want someone to move is pretty fundamental unless you were raised by wolves.

Oh, well, what a convenient time for Lena to declare him problematic! Yayz!

Did Lena forget her BFF is Terry's GF? OMG!

Which, I should add, makes sense—if you look at who he's written for, he's rich. $25k isn't going to make a huge difference to him, and it would be unthinkably tacky to ask for money in that context.

So I went to school with Samantha Urbani, the GF whose mother started the project. Her mom has always been basically insane and attention-seeking, so I can imagine this is something totally unintended by Hynes.

I actually don't think the culture generally cares about male celebrities' personalities and personal lives to the degree it does about women. Male celebrities are much less likely to be depicted in paparazzi photos, are much less often the subject of gossip, and are generally less likely or expected to give deep,

Prepon is like, Liz Taylor at 75. Which is fabulous in a particular way, but I'm pretty sure Liz would have only worn this when she was suffering from the alcohol and pill-induced bloats.
