Someone linked Lady Parts (a site that compiles similar casting calls) in the I09 story, which provided my favorite example:

It’s probably a lot more common than you think. For instance, when choosing potential partners, one of my chief considerations is my ability to spot them in a variety of locations and settings: darkness, a forest, a blizzard, a well-lit room, submerged beneath water, outer space, etc.

Here are a few more.

At least three of those could pretty much be rephrased as: JANE has tragically decreased her value as a decorative object by living her life as if she were a human being.

Want to really highlight how sexist they are? Reverse the gender and try not to giggle.

Some other fun ones about those once beautiful women who tragically turned 30:

He joked that he wouldn’t be able to find me in the dark, anyway, since I was so dark-skinned

I read something on Tumblr from an otherkin, saying that she found Halloween to be triggering because of the vast appropriation of animal identities.

Madeleine, if you start researching into the world of otherkin you will find things you will never be able to unsee

Obama is Bilbo, because he tried, but now he is passing this shit on to somebody else and chilling with elves because he doesn’t give a shit anymore.

I know he’s not running anymore but can we cast Lindsey Graham as Galadriel? Can’t you just hear this speech in his molasses drawl:

Obama is fumbling around the cave and slips the Presidency into his pocket. Hillary: “My precious! Someone has stolen it!”

Hillary is clearly Gollum. The White House is her precious. She lived there once, then lost it and is obsessed with getting back in.

What exactly about the idea of a free, accessible and (originally) equal education available to all children regardless of class, race or religion do you object to?

Scholastic has released some of the best children’s books we have in our library. Classics.

House slaves and field slaves were practically two different strata of society within the slave class. The slaves that would be concerned with baking cakes for their owners weren’t typically the same slaves that were working the fields.

And in this case, I mean “White” as a mindset more than as a descriptor of the person doing the writing of that story.

Well yeah - if you free a bunch of people who didn’t want to be enslaved, but had room and board while enslaved, and then purposely make it nearly impossible for them to find decent work to support themselves, on some level they will miss the guaranteed room and board. It doesn’t mean they want to be slaves again or

So now a cutesy romp about the Jews helping a Nazi plan a picnic is probably a bad idea? I'm asking for a friend.
