We’re not allowed to submit these story to Colin, but a toddler did exactly the same thing in my restaurant. Except it wasn’t pee, it was at the entrance to the bar and someone stepped in it while carrying a full tray of drinks...

This is actually funnier than all of today’s stories. Separately, not combined, but still.

wow so much emotion over a hairstyle. strong priorities in life

She appears to be appropriating elderliness with that faux gray hair. She just walks around, having gray hair *like* the elderly without having lived the life that earns that gray hair. When it becomes a burden, she can just go back to having any other color of hair while the elderly have no choice but to be elderly.…

Are we going to have to put references and [insert topic here]ographies whenever we use a hair, clothes, etc. that has origins from a culture not our own? I see the picture and think the focus Jenner wanted to emphasize was her super fit body. Pick your battles people!

I would question "survival," but don't want to argue about it.

At some point early in their marriage my grandparents had it out over the toilet and aim, and from then until the day he died my grandfather sat down to pee when he was at home.

Really...this does not feel like total manipulation???

Maybe a minor point, but I don’t agree with the assessment that white women are praised for altering their bodies. All women are criticized for altering their bodies.

I don’t think anyone has ever celebrated a white person’s corn rows, ever (minus the one white person who is wearing them and whatever lady on the beach in Barbados that sold him/her on the idea).

This sounds like more of a problem with how we treat black people than whether or not a white woman wants to wear her hair a certain way.

Hi, I hope one of you will explain this to me. Gently please! I am genuinely trying to learn. Or point me towards a clear resource. I am a minority but I feel that I am not confident I understand “cultural appropriation” completely, and constantly worry that I will offend someone because my understanding of this is…

This is a tough one. I doubt when Kylie Jenner decided to wear a certain hair-do was she thinking “cultural appropriation”. More likely, she thought “I like this hairstyle.” She’s a 17 year old girl and acted as such - expressing herself and making childish comments. I agree with Amandla’s statements, but I don’t…

I like this girl but I am disturbed by her appropriation of my naturally occurring gray hair. I EARNED this silver and snow missy! /joke

I worked at a tasting room that had a pretty ample outdoor tasting area. (We had high traffic and eventually had to have a “no dogs except service dogs” rule because people wouldn’t walk their pets away from the bar to have them do their business.) I had a family at my bar — two parents, two grandparents, and a little…

Notice how the “also rans” represent a more diverse pageantry, but the winner is straight up old school blonde Barbie beauty queen. Gross.

Notwithstanding the fact that this pageant is run by a bloviating, racist turdbag, why are pageants still a thing? Lining women up so they can be inspected like a horse auction is still a thing in the twenty-first century? Gawd. It is almost like we live in a world where women don’t even make equal pay for equal…

Miss USA isn’t a scholarship program; it’s a straight cash grab. Miss America is the scholarship program.

I know these pageants are held up as “scholarship programs” or whatever, but these ladies, lovely as they are, are beauty queens. I find it kind of ridiculous that we ask them things like how to stop ISIS and how to fix race relations, when the reason these gals win is because they look the way they do in a bikini.…
