So let me get this straight, you got pregnant when he touched you with his magical ginger hands? Like a royal mind baby? Because I'm going to ignore everything else you said and just go with that. Also, tell your hubby thank you for his service!

I met Prince Harry. And touched him. And had a picture made. He smiled, laughed, and talked. I nearly pushed my husband off the bench so there would be room between us.
Backstory: May 2013 His Royal Hotness came to Walter Reed-Bethesda to visit wounded warriors. Since my dream man is one (war sucks, umkay), we got the…

Not to derail from this important piece of investigative journalism, but can we just talk about how fucking great Tara Jacoby is. Her art with your words, Madeleine. It's perfection. OMG-4567!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Once, when he was putting on a shirt, he told me that I needed to prepare myself because "I look really, really good in purple."

I actually know a lot of deeply religious people who support reproductive rights and struggle with reconciling their faith and their political/social beliefs. I think they are absolutely capable of intelligent discourse and have witnessed it many times.

Locally sourced food, on the other hand, supports local farming and agriculture and often smaller,…

It's not stupid. It's what we call it! Just don't say "frisco."

And of course he is reading it right now because he had to see what the big deal was. Best way to get kids to…

I came here specifically to say this. It's Banned Books Week and we're STILL FUCKING BANNING BOOKS!

High schools have absolutely no business banning books. Unless it's because they're genuinely terrible. And even then I'm not entirely sure.

I've never read that in the Bible because I only read the parts that helps me win arguments.

I feel like this piece got completely screwed by its headline. If it had been framed as a memoir-type book advert the reception would have been better, but because it's being billed as an advice essay it's getting a bunch of shit. What should have been taken as something personal is being taken as something universal.…

that is an astonishingly ignorant statement.

Really? I thought it was obnoxious and exemplifies the up-its-own-ass qualities of feminism that drive people away.

I'd go with Your Royal Yeezness

he called the next day and asked if I was Ok. I said I was and left it at that. He had no further comment.

That lady called her own boobs doughy:
