And it would be totally warranted, in my view. I think that kind of questioning is out of line.

Oh, I'm sure it's all about marketing. But the fact that so-called purity is considered a sellable asset is really, really depressing and messed up.

So she's covertly outing all the celebrity douchebags under the pretense of dating them and using the heartbreak for inspiration? GENIUS. I refuse to believe any other scenario.

It sounds like he expected her to behave like a groupie. If that's the case, well, good riddance!

Not to mention that it's nobody's business. I still can't believe tabloids feel it's OK to ask about that — I'd be mortified.

I honestly think the director knew exactly what he was going to get out of this — it seems like an easy way to get publicity for a film that otherwise would not have been on that many people's radar. The director gives front-row seats to Lindsay's drama and tries to make himself out as a martyr (though he comes across…

I'm guessing the igloo is at the bottom? It seems like it would make a solid base.

I think I read that they dye the "mane" and tail tuft to make it more lion-like, which is my only objection to this whole scenario.

I always think they look like Ewoks. Which is to say, awesome and adorable.

I just got carded (also in Ontario) and I'm 29. I was both flattered and annoyed, because I didn't actually have ID on me and I had to go home and get it.

I don't know the ins and outs of U.S. labour laws, but in Canada, if you're doing work as an unpaid intern similar to what paid employees are doing, it's illegal. So while I agree anyone in an entry-level job should be willing to work their way up — and do it without an attitude — they should be doing that while also…

I was wondering about this - did none of these assistant coaches intervene? Even if they didn't suspect the extent of the horrors being committed, isn't it enough that students under their care were drinking and using drugs?

I agree with you that they're leading an important investigation in the public interest and they're taking initiative rather than accepting the general inertia surrounding the case. All great, journalisty things.

It's nice to see someone like something in earnest, whatever it is. I don't have the mental energy to pretend to like things because they're cool or to deprive myself of things I enjoy because they're supposedly embarrassing. At some point you just have to own your tastes and let other people deal with it.

Exactly. Not to mention that not everyone has a job that allows regular breaks for food. I can usually manage breakfast at work but might not get a chance to eat until 12 hours later (by which the entire "eating window" would be gone).

I don't dispute the logic - I'm just saying it's not as widely applied as, say, eschewing honey. But maybe your vegans are just more hardcore. :)

Bagels are great for hangovers! They soak up the booze like a sponge.

I think we can agree that lectures are never welcome, on either side of this argument. But you're basically confirming that vegan-hate stems from ignorance, which isn't a good excuse. Also, that "no yeast" thing is far from canon - in fact, I can't remember ever meeting a vegan who didn't eat bread (though I'm sure…

THIS. It made me cringe so hard. Plus it seems a little counterproductive to me — manners are about thinking beyond yourself and applying the Golden Rule, whereas "building your brand" is entirely self-serving.

But then wouldn't that also lead to a job you hate? I can't see how that would boost job satisfaction, which is what this whole study was about.
