I mean, Grand Budapest is a comedy, but I overall agree with you. Plus, while it’s funny, it’s not “making you cry from laughter” funny.

I had a crush on my older cousin as a kid, so I don’t think it’s weird. If you think someone’s nice as a kid, the conclusion is you’re going to marry. Also had a “crush” on my best friend.

Same. It’s like with Emilia Clarke. She’s certainly pretty, but she’s even better looking when she has a weird wig on.

Well, giving people rope is not illegal. Giving people your meds is illegal. So there’s the difference, I guess. It doesn’t make one more or less morally right, but it does change the law’s view.

;)

Philly is actually pretty reasonable; at least compared to what I’ve seen friends pay in certain parts of southern New England.

Just please stay there and don’t migrate to Philly because it’s far cheaper and also fantastic (but on a smaller scale, of course!)

My friend is middle class and went to art school in New York because it was the cheapest option since she didn’t have to commute (pretty sure she didn’t apply in state, of course). Her dad is a contractor or something in Manhattan and it was burned down in the 80s.

But they weren’t making fun of Kim’s body, which was what OP was criticizing Jezebel for.

I think the Taylor hating was a bit tongue and cheek, and the Kim discussion wasn’t exactly negative. But I dunno, I think Kim looks great in that pic.

I’m also from RI near her, and didn’t know she made a frequent habit of it. Good for her. She’s probably pretty fair and weird, but she’s far from a monster.

Well, sometimes it works because people find it funny. Generally it’s booze and hookers, but I like the pizza better.

My grams says dungarees and pedal pushers (although I haven’t heard either since I was a kid) and she’s from NY. So maybe not a NE thing?

Well, I realize the difference is because of person first language, but I was a special ed major. Most people aren’t trained that in school, so it gets confusing. Plus as you said, everyone’s preferences are different.

But what if someone guessed wrong and called him Chinese? Wouldn’t that offend him more than Asian? Just curious.

I think for an old person trying to be respectful, the whole PoC vs. colored thing would get confusing.

Latinx sounds like either spandex or something you’d call a cougar.

I’m still guilty of occasionally saying gypping. But I would only call Romani people Romani, so I guess it’s not AS bad?

Wow, that has to be the cutest thing ever! It makes me a little sad the orangutan couldn’t actually kiss it and touch it.

I would hope one would know their prospective fiancée to know if they both want it too, right?
