I totally feel the way you do: a well-meaning friend of mine tried to help me with math before the GRE and I got points for showing-up for the test on-time and typing my name correctly. That's about it. It was so crippling to have such lopsided scores and feel so utterly stupid and defeated because my math skills were…

One of my students did this in stiletto Mary Jane's in Bermuda one summer. I was so proud of him and even prouder that he chose a pair with straps, which I'm sure helped him to win. That's sad that that was a high point of my teaching career, but it was for a good cause.

I was 38 weeks. I think I was just being a stubborn a-hole being a true Taurus and all that. Now I'm getting a PhD, so I'm not sure there's a correlation between the length of my time in utero and my intelligence.

This isn't surprising at all and this kind of treatment of women (Western and Egyptian) was happening long before the revolution. When I lived in Egypt, I had a 10 year-old stick his hand between my legs getting out of a cab, a man rubbing against me on an escalator, and of course, my personal favourite, the guy who…

Native Bostonian here. And this is my surprised face. For full dramatic effect, you have to read the excerpts in the same voice as the Hopper ads, otherwise it's not as great.

I love how Rush basically assumes that the Muslim Brotherhood is like a fraternity and thus must have its own female counterpart, when in fact, the Brotherhood does have women members and female leadership (Zaynab al-Ghazali). I love the paranoid, six degrees of separation that happens in the minds of the Right. It's…

What? I think I feel some static from my tinfoil hat.

I hate everyone. I'm going to go eat a bag of Pride Oreos and read one of my worn out copies of "Dorrie the Little Witch" because I can't handle being this age and surrounded by such raging assholes with zero regard for human life.

I read those and I was struck by how many of them were made by men, but I digress, it was depressing that people could make a COOKIE such an issue, but then, this is America and this is me wearing my "Big F**king Surprised Hat with special Glitter Pom Poms for Pride Week."

OMG and now I know why my grandmother had bazillions of Noxzema jars around (other than the appealing blue glass)!!! For someone who denied being Irish daily, she couldn't hide her Ulster roots (except maybe in one of those damn jars). Another piece of the puzzle... who knew it would come from a Jezebel thread on…

Yes! There are articles about it and there's a Facebook group, too. Just Google "Kate Middleton's Hair" and depending on how bitchy/bored you're feeling, you can get a whole range. There was a whole comment thread I read once that was kind of amazing and on point in an authoritatively bitchy way which is how I like it.

I am not Bedazzling© my boobs.

Imma' gonna' make it happen.

Here here!

Yeah, I hear you. Sometimes I get inspired and get all, "Imma' gonna' have shiny hair today!" but I just don't have the energy or the willpower. I mean, who am I trying to impress? I have to walk through Colonial Williamsburg every day to get to work and if some guy in a tricornered hat nods at me, that's a big deal.…

bwahahahaha Yahoo! I think did a whole breakdown of K Middy's beauty regime yesterday and needless to say, even speculatively, I would say the answer to your question is, "Yes."

Thank you, lovely. No, I have moments where I desperately want to, but then I remember everyone who loves me and as my friend said, "There is only one of you and we love that one!" xx

<3 You are awesome.

That's so horrible about your daughter's roommate!!! How utterly devastating and awful!!!
