I think this is what happens when Show tries to create a full-fledged character out of some random past guest star whose single defining attribute is that she's bendy. I really, really want to like Lisa, but you're right - everything just falls flat with these two, and it frustrates me to no end that the writers keep…

I agree with the fact that the performance - and by extension the song - are not her best work, but I suppose I should have phrased my last bit differently. I don't dispute that Gaga is a manufactured entity, because I think it's naive to say that any big act out there isn't equally manufactured. However, I think that…

I was, actually, and by the time Stripped came out I'd started investigating much more diverse forms of music - but I'm willing to concede the point because I didn't pay much attention to Christina Aguilera after getting a taste of her early stuff, which didn't appeal to me in in the slightest because of how…

Not my favourite track from her, but considering how much she rocked my socks with tracks like "Teeth" or "Speechless", I'm willing to give her one lacklustre song that nevertheless delivers a fun beat and a positive message. The Lady is beyond demonstrating that she's a talented musician and songwriter, and yet it…

Yes, yes and again, YES!

I actually prefer to have the first meeting sooner rather than later - not only will it avoid disappointment after you've spent all that time envisioning your dream mate, and they turn out not to be what you expected, but sometimes I actually find myself getting bored with a prolonged digital/telephone courtship…

Word.

Any word on who the designer is?

I would heart you, but Scotty tells me that's not allowed.

I agree with most of this - I haven't had any difficulty loading the page, but I don't like the new system of having to actively check up on my replies rather than just being notified, and I definitely tend to read fewer articles than I used to with the old design. For some reason I find it far more exhausting to scan…

I've never hit 6'4" - but I take a perverse amount of pride in being 6'2" in heels, even if it sort of makes me look like a transvestite around short men.

I think they'd be too lazy to resort to carnage.

I'm sure I would have the same dedication to heels if I could could figure out how to walk confidently across linoleum without falling on my face.

Well, I feel much better knowing that, whenever I pick up a women's health magazine, my tendency is to flip past all the fitness and nutrition blabber and coo over Kate Spade for a few minutes. Most likely while eating gummy bears.

@PaigeTurner: Uh... whoops. I derive as much happiness squeezing those things as I do pimples. Never had one get infected, luckily, but now might be a good time to stop.

I have a question about something that may or may not be related to zits.

@elle_est_sarcastique: I've tried a million different things, and the one I actually like the best is Burt's Bees' Radiance moisturizer. It doesn't feel at all greasy and really does brighten your skin after a while; my skin won't get oily quite so soon after, either, and there's also an SPF in it. I hear their…

@Leucadia: Ugh, those are the absolute worst. They hurt like mad, and no amount of drying solution or acne medication will get rid of them - they basically just have to fuck off on their own. The urge to squeeze them is no less present, though, even if that only makes it worse. I get them every so often myself,…

@nansense: llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwy....

@lurkystars: I will see you your Polish sandwich and raise you a Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwy.... Typically the Welsh aren't fond of vowels, either.
