I can’t like your comment because you currently have 69 stars (nice!), and I am apparently 12 years old.

My dad had me add Bobby Orr to my prayers at bedtime. Every night, I dutifully said “God bless Mummy and Daddy and Nonno and Nonna and Bobby Orr...” It’s one of my earliest memories.

Women hang out with women because men treat us like shit. It’s not prejudice, it’s self-preservation.

And yet, the weirdest part for me was still the way he flailed his arms when he performed the song. I’m pretty sure this performance on the Ed Sullivan show is what cemented the stereotype of Italians talking excessively with their hands.

I’ll grant you that this version is better than the original, but only because Gipsy Kings > Modugno. Dean Martin’s version, while maintaining the more old-school Italian, less danceable vibe, still gives the Kings a run for their money.

And the worst is Vampire Weekend’s version, from a Starbucks compilation of all things. They keep slipping Spanish words in with the Italian, because what difference does it make, right? Any foreign language will make them sound “ethnic,” or “world beat” I guess. Grr.

Ooh, you almost had me until that last bit.

Josh Chan’s mom? Not sure if she was born in the Philippines or not. But I love Amy Hill in anything, since 50 First Dates. (Hey, would that character have been old enough to be born in Hawaii when it was still independent, and if so, would she count to satisfy this question?)

I had the pearl thong; it was all the rage in NYC long before it appeared in SATC. It was okay.

Well, there’s a new twist, Jezebel!

Whereas I’m peetty sure that people would be heartbroken if I died — but I wish they were more aware of that right now, and thus showed appreciation while I’m alive. I think if I died in my sleep a lot of people would feel pretty shitty about themselves.

I wish and hope it’s just bangs growing out or plastic surgery recovery. But I’m absolutely convinced that she’s recovering from a domestic abuse incident. He’s done it before.

I love how Meghan’s hair billows on her cartoon mug. Because it’s true, her hair always does that! It’s as if she’s got a wind machine in position for all public appearances.

I love the first three chapters, which I have read countless times, optimistically...

It took me a year to finish reading it, in part because I refused to carry that brick around with me on the subway. When I finally finished it, I got my beat-up copy signed by him at a reading. He was an absolute asshole; I was amazed at how much assholery could be conveyed in a 30-second signing. He was such an…

I absolutely abhor when a guy makes a woman’s shining moment about himself — and to do it in the name of “love” is even more loathsome. Who cares about her career when your love is the real prize, right, guy? UGH. Like that guy who interrupted his GF’s presentation of her work on the Today Show to propose!…

I had so many men aged from same as me to 15 years younger chasing after me when I was 38. It is truly a glorious time.

Love Raylan. Love you for quoting him.

Agreed! But you can also get all of that by being pleasant and kind. I just got a free glass of wine because a family of three came into the restaurant and there were two seats next to me, so I politely asked the people on the other side if they minded moving down one seat so the family could fit. And the mom was so…

Where is this full head of hair they mentioned? Is it in a box at home?
