I never even really liked the show but was always bothered by the misogynistic language used by its "critics." "Critics" being men on the internet who are like, really angry about stuff.
Also, being named Anna, I like to imagine the pro-ana movement is actually a group of people who really love me.
I've always felt that people who say that must be really crappy cooks.
Dear Bret Easton Ellis,
I've enjoyed reading all the success stories below. My mother's 2nd husband was less formally educated than her and had a real chip on his shoulder about it. His contant sniping about "educated idiots" and attempts to assuage his own ego by belittling her accomplishments left me very wary of dating men without formal…
@girl_talk: That's what I was thinking. I'm more inclined to believe the first version of events as a half stone is (I think) about 7 pounds. That woman 40 pounds lighter would be a corpse.
LOL. When I saw the lead for this entry, I said jokingly "You're painted as dull because you're a librarian! Everyone knows we all wear buns and oorthopedic shoes! Duh."
My experience is men don't read your profile. Put up pretty pictures and write whatever the fuck you want.
WTF? That's fucking public property! If you got a problem, file a challenge. Most libraries have a procedure in place. You know what they call people who take stuff that's not their? THIEVES.
@Lazy Line Painter Jane: Their, not they're. The older I get, the more often I make that mistake.
@SimonGodOfHairdos (is actually a chick): The Last Resort Bra is actually the same Enell mentioned above. It is the most effective bra I've tried, but I feel like I'm wearing a cross between a corset and a suit of armor when I've got it on.
@closetalker11: Freya is next on my list of bras to try.
@Lazy Line Painter Jane: I've actually had very poor luck with purchasing from them. I don't like they way they don't spell out the manufacturer and style, because twice now I've purchased bras from that I didn't realize I already had. And had to layer. And they're DDD+ selection is still quite small. :(
@emilylzbth: I have one of those and I have to admit it works. But is too much to ask to have a sports bra that doesn't feel like a suit of armor?
@Lindsey G.: I'll try this one. Thanks.
I'll give my first born to the bra designer who makes a sports bra that keeps my 34Gs from giving me black eyes without having to wear two of them.
@AgainWithFeeling: LOL, I was living in southern Connecticut at the time.
@amake616: I actually tend to keep my childfree status "quiet" precisely because SOME CFers can be rather assholish. The world would be a much happier place if everyone just accepted that my choices aren't a judgment of your choices and vice versa, but just different choices.
@DestructoGirl: A few years back, the student newspaper at Central Connecticut State University published an editorial about how rape isn't always bad. (E.g. it's the only way ugly girls will ever have sex.) The writer's response to the totally predicatble reaction? "It was satire. Duh."
