There's no snark at all intended in my post. In fact, I'm wondering if the OP is being snarky about Jolie's decision. Because if the OP had said these words to me as someone who's artificially in menopause TO SAVE MY LIFE, I would have ripped her a new one. Yeah, menopause sucks, but being fatalistic about it is

The reason why menopause sets in way before the rest of the body stops working is actually an evolutionary adaptation to keep old women alive. Childbirth is tremendously risky and dangerous without modern medicine, and ensuring that a woman doesn't have to go through that risk again helps keep her alive for the next

While I know there will be criticism around her writing of this piece— "she's self indulgent! elitist! out of touch! who cares!" etc. etc. I have to say that I didn't know anything about the BRCA1 gene mutation/testing before her first piece. It educated and informed me and my friends. This one educated me as well.

Yikes! I'm very glad I don't see it this way. If I did I'd probably go into a deep depression due to my chemo-induced very early menopause. Oh, and I'm also very glad my sister also doesn't see it this way. She, younger than me, had a total hysterectomy (in two stages, due to the hope of saving her ovaries) because

This just makes me think of that scene in Erin Brockovich when the redhead from CSI says, "If you have no breasts, no ovaries, and no uterus, are you still a woman?" and Julie Roberts says, "A much happier woman" or something to that effect.

The fact that this series has done nothing but glorify people whose only claim to fame is a series of bad life decisions is deplorable enough. The fact that it has then also gone on to make celebrities out of those same people is disgusting. EVERYONE involved in this series (especially the producers) needs to take a

The Witch Dungeon Museum! Though I found it more campy than powerful...

She's TV fat, just like Mindy Kaling. And what's really upsetting is just how noticeable it is when you see women who aren't really skinny on film. There's a weird cognitive dissonance.

I fucking LOVE AMY SCHUMER.

At least in Costco's case, I agree with you. Then again, they're one of the few companies that often operates from a long-view perspective as opposed to taking the shortest route to immediate profits, damn the long-term consequences.

I'd believe it - I expect that Limbaugh, like Coulter, just acts like an ass to stir shit up and get attention. He probably doesn't even care much about politics; he's just a performer who found a really well-paying gig.

I'll watch Ferguson do pretty much anything. His Late Late Show was a bright spot in the barren wasteland that is late night TV.

Yeah, I love when he just talks about his life. He's so funny and so natural, and I love that he's the butt of his own jokes more than anyone else (it's particularly lovely to hear him talk about his wife so often without ever devolving into sexist schtick—she's just a big part of his life, so of course she features

I enjoy Seth Meyers' interviews so much more than Jimmy Fallon's - I love the games on the Tonight Show, and I think Jimmy Fallon does the non-interview segments better, but I agree. I'll watch Late Night over Tonight Show anytime.

You're right...Jimmy Fallon is like a gnat that I want to swat.

Seth Meyers is a LOT more charming than Jimmy Fallon.

Are you saying that people have accused you if being a Rastafarian because you are black? I would like to know. Because white people have been known to wear locs and smoke weed, too. And some white people even look like their hair might smell of weed.

I'm not debating it was a stupid thing for Rancic to say, but the references to patchouli and weed, when talking about locs, seem to be more a reflection of what is said about white people who wear the style, not black people, no?

Cmon Craig Ferguson!

they should be made by cup size
