It's interesting that you exclude FF XII from your dismissal of all post FF VI Final Fantasy narratives. That's my favorite in the franchise. It's many things, but by no measure is it "pandering to emo teenagers" or "wish-fulfillment writing". The criticisms most commonly leveled at it are that it went too far in…

GAH!!! What does Jezebel have to do with it? Stupid is an equal opportunity employer as your own behavior so spectacularly demonstrates. Well done.

But you don't even know what ethnicity I am...

I climb cell towers and every time a climber falls I want to know exactly want happened. Most of the time, but not always, it is climber error. You have to learn from other people's mistakes.

Sounds like they have intimacy problems. I wonder how many times she actually VLOOKUPs at him when they are doing it.

congrats on the best reply of the modern kinja era.

And every single child in the 13 ranked countries above us also has the right to and education. What's your point? Canada is ranked #2 in the world, and trust me from Canadian friends, they were over educated for our school systems when they got here. She skipped 2 grades ahead because of it. So I think to say "it…

kids figure that out themselves. I didn't need anyone to break it to me that I was a lousy golfer from 12 on. at 10 I was awesome. I spent my 11th year with a cast on my leg for the whole summer. after that, my game was never the same.

We're competitive, we're just not very good.

Not sure comparing Finland, a homogenous nation of 5 million, to the United States is really that applicable.

I'm probably in the minority but Bundesliga matches are a delight to watch (versus the drama of the EPL for instance).

I could never in good conscience root for a team called Sporting Kansas City. Get it together, MLS.

Last week Argentina was making fun of Brazilians for crying.

Karma's a bitch!

YESSSSSS FUCKING FINALLY

I decided to pay attention to this World Cup, picked myself a team to root for before it started, and they won the damn thing! As a lifelong Kansas City Chiefs fan, I never knew how good it feels when your guys win! I am now a soccer fan. Gonna figure out which MSL team to root for, and figure out how to get…

Buttholes.

Did I do it right?

Closer to a F-18 than a F-5.

Wow, you missed the point. Do you think consumers should be unaware of what changes are made to peoples' bodies before presented as beautiful? Do you think standards of beauty would NOT shift if we saw how people really looked? Mariah is beautiful photoshop or none. The issue is not her beauty, it is how the media…

I don't disagree with you. J. Lo clearly works very hard to maintain her body which is a big reason she looks so young. Mariah clearly enjoys a good meal. And why shouldn't she?!? She can afford to eat the finest foods and wines for breakfast, lunch, and dinner if she wants.

Sure, desperate to keep working. I just don't think our culture knows what to do with women of a certain age. She's the same age as Jennifer Lopez, but JLo has been drinking the blood of virgins or something and looks 10-15 years younger. Jennifer Aniston and Cate Blanchet were born the same year, but they aren't…
