Sister Carrie: [misses joke]

Tad, Steele, Wells, Shack, Covie, Coco, Wick, and Sheehan Stanwick.

Is that from My Big Fat Greek Wedding?

"Women are the only exploited group in history to have been idealized into powerlessness."

Not every high-pitched noise is a dog whistle.

Calm down. You're reading too much into it. At worst, it was trite, not condescending.

I've heard that she is super particular about her set-up, which makes sense with the nuanced sounds she produces. Incredible all around.

Add in some admittedly regrettable favorites like Fountains of Wayne* and 311 and you pretty much have the soundtrack to my childhood in Iowa.

[W]hat do we call it when people urge others to commit suicide?

Jesus, dude. Just how many women have you kicked in the vag?

Here's my top three:
