Yeah, I’ve heard some people say it’s “not even a real job” and they should be “grateful for what they get,” yet they have no problem with the millions of dollars paid to each player of football, baseball, or basketball.

Nono, you’re mistaken; it’s not that they should be paid in experience. It’s that they are supposed to be grateful to be in the presence of wealthy professional athletes who might deign to let them be glorified prostitutes if they’re especially good at cheerleading.

It is a cat, so it is definitely the Gone Girl thing.

for some reason this reminds me of that part in Harry Potter when all the spiders leave Hogwarts and swarm into the woods so what I’m saying is these people probably have a massive iSpider in their basement and should probably contact Steve Jobs for help via seance.

Reason 1 million why I don’t read my own student evaluations and never will.* And why the only person in my department who has ever suggested basing the merit-based pay component of our salary on teaching evaluations was male.** I don’t need to read a teaching evaluation to know that they think I’m a bitch because I…

Male teachers can afford to be ‘cool’, whereas female teachers have to be obviously formal and professional because being female means people automatically think of you as less professional.

Yeah, sometimes when I go into new companies for the first time, someone refers to me as a “diversity hire.” I’m as white as white can be, but I share the having of a vagina with 50% of the population. I always take that as a terrible sign for the actual “diversity” of their company.

They have to be. Otherwise they’d be seen as less effective. Oh wait. They are either way.

Hey, laser pointers are nice and all, but there’s nothing like having things pointed out by an erect penis. Can’t do that, can you ladies?

“I made a joke about dating, and then AMY made a joke about dating!! THEN I made a joke about boobs, and of course Amy went and made a boob-joke too! Then I did this whole bit where it would be surprising that I was being crass because I am a girl, you know? Guess what! AMY went and did that too! And Amy NEVER steals…

The whole Bratz tiny hooker line is a bad idea. Gah!

Of course you can build an immunity to polio. That’s exactly what the body’s response to the polio vaccine is.

Well I do believe kids need to build their immune system. This can be achieved by playing in dirt, being sick from time to time, but vaccines are there to help. If I have kids, I will vaccinate. Sorry, you can't build an immunity to polio.

Vaccines are not Big Pharma at all. I could not be friends with people this stupid.

Stop being friends with those morons.

This all happened in my neighborhood and started before my child could be vaccinated. Fuck all of these people who show up on the playground with kids with runny noses and rashes and proudly tell everyone their kids are unvaccinated and “building their immune systems.”

I don’t hate her face because she doesn’t look like Audrey Hepburn, I hate her face because of the words that come out of it. I think that’s okay.

I’m a 460 month old fetus- what’s the problem?

this is kind of besides the point of the article, but I don’t think a 19 year old (or really...anyone) should spend that much money on what is basically an accessory. it’s not my money, it’s their business, etc, but it just doesn’t seem like a wise financial decision. but then our entire consumer driven society makes…

That’s what I was wondering. Wtf? Even if the poor girl had “not a virgin” tattoo’d on her forehead, still none of Rep. Dye’s damn business.
