I understand that the advent of social media has changed our social mores, but there is still etiquette to follow after the death of someone you know or know through others. It is absolutely not the time to make public conciliatory gestures like Parker’s because you are making it about YOU. If you want to extend an…

i’m rather nectarinal when i just wake up, i’ve found.   

oh, well then, enjoy your upcoming coma.

I’m tired of hearing about Meghan Markle.

“The Joy of Gay Sex” was even worse. I’ve read both and I think the publisher used the same illustrator (so much body hair, as noted above) and “Gay Sex” came out shortly after “Sex.”

Those go-go boots with the hosiery. Yikes.

I can’t wait to see both of these, full stop. These are two of the most potent women of my lifetime & I’m glad they’re getting movies.

It might be useful to provide links, dates and other information on how we, the plebes, may be able to view the RBG film. It was bought by Magnolia. Great. How and when do I watch Magnolia channels/partnership/stream/whatever?

I want to see it now just to see the part of her of her smiling at McKinnon. I bet Kate gets such pleasure knowing she finds the impression funny. I find most of the SNL impressions fall pretty flat but hers are always so great

Re: RGB and her legal genius, my favorite SCOTUS-nerd podcast More Perfect did an excellent episode about Craig v. Boren, and how Ginsburg used sex discrimination cases where men are the victims to prove social harm. (And how she saved the day after the male attorney bungled the argument.)

I was going to make fun of this, but that lift was incredible.

Toepick!

Blame Canada!

The corruption of our youth by Canadians will not stop unless we halt this ice-dancing filth in its track. What’s next? They pause in the middle of their seductive dance to hand out leaflets on the need for a universal health-care system?

I exchanged my kid’s 4 year old backpack for a new one. The zipper stopped working, but it was otherwise in good condition (which, to LL Bean’s credit, is amazing for an elementary school aged kid). He’s still carrying the replacement around, but it’s about to meet its death. The zippers are working, but it’s frayed…

On the flipside of that, last year I bought some black loafer-style shoes from Zappo’s that were labeled as “leather upper”. Well, the very thin veneer of leather started peeling within a few weeks. I got on the Zappo’s live-chat customer service and asked if there was any possible way they could maybe exchange the…

I am like the perfect customer. Rarely if ever return anything. I’m from the school of “you bought it you keep it” mindset.

I worked at a bookstore when I was in high school. We regularly had people try to return books that they had

Confession: I once returned a LLBean jacket because the zipper kept jamming and the pocket snaps fell apart - six years after purchasing. In my defense I paid a crapload for a shell jacket that was billed as a bargain because it would last forever. That was always the deal with Bean: it would cost more, but would wear…

I work at a department store and it is mind-boggling what people will bring in.
