what. in. the. fuck.

I’ve been low key this weekend too, it has helped a lot! I read a book and made some Italian wedding soup. It’s been really nice! #introvertsunite

I went to three holiday parties in one weekend and it was way too much, so I’ve been completely anti-social since. Holiday parties are really hard.

That’s not what I said. I said to apply to be considered for the award, you have to pay to the television or film academy itself. Not the members.

The Emmy fee is $5k, last time someone I knew paid for it—or that is what we were told by the people paying for it. Which is significantly less, yes, but that is significant nonetheless. And it was paid for by production/the studio, but I was *stunned* that is how the submission process for those things work—and just…

I don’t know how factually correct this is, but allegedly you pay for your own star, it starts at like 25k or something. You fill out a form and then there is a committee meeting or something? There is some person or persons that decides where and when but it is 100% a money grab for the city.

I doubt this will be seen as I think I’m still in the grey’s here on Jalopnik, but I’m in the same boat! I have a ‘12 Jetta TDI and I really like my car—it was the first car that I bought new and although the buyback is lessening the burn that I felt from the whole scandal, I’m a feeling very unlikely to buy something…

It wouldn’t be relaxing for me as having to make sure that those pages were in order after unbinding them originally actually gave me lots of stress just watching the video, but it was very neat to see how all of it is done. Also, holy hand tools!! I’m guessing after all this time, that guy’s fingertips are impervious…

Well, we don’t have a pet or kids because of lots of different reasons, but I’ve basically resigned myself to having to take on all the things that he isn’t capable of doing. As I was explaining up thread, he has dyslexia and I think that is the root cause of his inability to focus and connect dots, etc., etc. So, no,…

I absolutely think you make some very valid points, although it may have more to do with different personality types than it being so weighted towards gender? I don’t know—I do know men that are extremely meticulous, but they had parents that expected that of them, so maybe that is proving your theory. My husband has…

Obviously, this guy wasn’t doing things by rote, as a previous poster explained, this was purposeful, but, like you, I could never fathom someone leaving a child in a seat—until I met my husband. He is the most flighty human in terms of remembering things and once I understood that aspect of his personality, it really…

I had football coaches (years before I got there, so, this was all legend by the time I heard it) get married to students the MOMENT they turned 18 & graduated from HIGH SCHOOL. There were THREE of them that did that!!

“I got you, fam.” is DEFINITELY going to be my new retort!! Thanks!!

I didn’t know what it was! I never saw a trailer for it. But you made the right choice by skipping completely!! It was so embarrassing!!

I don’t know who that show is/was for, but my god, what a flaming turd! I turned it off after 45 seconds.

I definitely think that is some of it, for sure. Although, I was told to question everything, but it was in a history class taught by a very liberal person. I’m from the South, so there is also this authoritarian thing that goes on down there in addition to everyone’s desire to conform. (Oh, and these are the same…

I’m not surprised by this in the slightest. I don’t know what happened to this generation of people as they were growing up—if it was just constant propaganda-ish narrative delivered from the media on trusting everything that was published anywhere—but my father, who is probably only a few years younger than the main…

Oh and to actually answer your question (sorry!), no, I don’t think she was surprised. I think she is happy. She is also one of those girls that takes on the personality of the person that she is with at the moment, so whatever her boyfriend and his family believe is right, that is what she does.

She pulled this bullshit justification of “Oh, if you look at his former politics, he was always a Democrat, he only ran Republican to get votes. He didn’t actually mean what he said, he just said that so that he could get elected.”, which makes me even more furious at her for being so unbelievably naive and stupid.…

Jesus, you have to plan a wedding. That is so much worse. I’m so sorry. And sending you all of the patience and wedding planning ease I can muster. Hope your holidays are uneventful!
