I grew up in Pennsytucky a million years ago, but in my decidedly un-progressive school, in 8th grade, everybody took home ec for half a year, and then everybody took wood shop for the other half of the year. Required for everybody, no substitutions or excuses. I don’t know if that had any eye-opening effects on my…

There’s plenty to be vomitously mad about here, but this jumped out at me:

Ooh: Kei Cars vs. K-cars. Every episode features people seeing how long they can stand to drive a clapped-out Dodge Lancer, or a clapped-out Chrysler New Yorker, or clapped out Plymouth Reliant, or...whatever miserable pile of sadness before switching to a Kei car.

I was coming down to comment on the same thing.  The association between “commune” and “cult” can’t be helping.  I assume most women would be extremely wary of joining up with the next NXIVM.

Miley does seem like a bit of a shithead, but if she distracts Jezebel at large from their favorite transphobic shithead Cardi B, then I’m kinda O.K. with it?  I know--it’s a low bar, but I’ll take what I can get.

To quote/paraphrase Henry Rollins: “Good.  Stay dead, motherfucker.” (I think it was originally part of a spoken word bit about a Halliburton executive, but it applies just as well here.)

I feel like “American Beauty” is right up there with “Fight Club” for movies that people completely misunderstood. People got into the righteous idea of sticking it to the man and checking out of corporate America, but then somehow missed the glaringly obvious point that trying to bang your teenage daughter’s friend…

It’s a tricky question. They’re banned in the sense that you can’t march around Heidelberg advertising your fancy Aryan-only club with swastika shirts, but:

“His Royal Highness deplores the exploitation of any human being and the suggestion he would condone, participate in or encourage any such behaviour is abhorrent.”

No snark meant, but has she ever apologized for her transphobic bullshit? Because if not, I’m not seeing a huge moral/ethical gap between the two of them, in spite of the fact that Cardi is Jezebel’s favorite garbage human to stan for (at the moment).

I think it probably smells like mumbling and scalp-torturing ponytails.

I remember reading a profile of his fandom in The New Yorker, way back before the TV show even started, and they certainly came off as absurdly entitled, miserable people.  Any time he “took off” to go to a con or do anything except stay chained to his desk was an insult to them, apparently.  They made Annie Wilkes in…

Given all the other lies, including on the documents she used to enter the U.S., I don’t even believe she’s Slovenian anymore.  She probably grew up in Bensonhurst but thought Slovenia sounded more exotic.

Not only that, but the taxes they pay support benefits they themselves can’t claim.

The only surprising thing about this incident is that the “alleged vandals” didn’t spray paint racial slurs and swastikas all over the place, but that probably just means it was an unplanned (read: drunken) hate crime instead of one that involved a stop at the hardware store for spray cans first.

Maybe 10-ish years ago, I was driving to NYC from Boston. I was on the Merritt Parkway. For those not in the know, it’s a “scenic,” twisty, narrow, four-lane highway through Connecticut that everybody treats like a race track, in spite of the blind turns, trees right next to the road, etc. People entering usually have…

I know I’m just repeating other grumpy sentiments already expressed around here, but could we stop pretending this new age grifter is in any way worthwhile? There are SEVERAL very smart, very experienced, very capable women running for the Democratic nomination. I know they’re not “fun” and “kooky” and probably don’t…

Would pay good money to watch GOOP be on the receiving end of some Jackson riffing much like this.

Us normies couldn’t understand their fourth-dimensional love math.  What makes you think we’d understand their fifth-dimensional divorce wormhole?

There is no way a service like this will become weaponized by predators.  Nope.  Not a chance.  /s
