Not sure where in Brooklyn or Queens, but my boyfriend lived in Bay Ridge and I lived in Astoria. It routinely took me over an hour to get there by train. It look about 30 minutes to drive. The Brooklyn/Queens commute is notoriously long and awful, so you must have lucked out.

I should walk to and from Brooklyn to Manhattan every day for work? I don't have the right to expect the MTA to at least run properly while corruptly and massively mismanaging funds yet still raising the price every year?

Spinsters unite!!!

My old maid status is looking more and more advantageous every day.

Please make celebrity memoir reviews a regular feature on this site! (I nominate Vanna White's for the next installment) ((Yes, I read it when I was in high school)).

Purchasing right now on Amazon, because this sounds like the single greatest contribution to literature made by a man who is arguably more important than an insurance salesman and definitely better than some fucking DOG

Nope — baby powder has been linked to ovarian cancer in women, among other things. Docs advise against using it there.

You aren't supposed to like Walter, he's a monster. Or at least, he's a jerk of a person who slowly turns into a monster.

I enjoyed the books but I'm down with the "fuck you, I don't have to read them" attitude. I hate it when people do that. Also, I hated Breaking Bad and The Sopranos no matter how many times people told me that I HAD to love them.

As an old person, I have no problem with any blanket announcement that might result in fewer idiot college kids flocking to a beach to binge drink.

Even if we overlook the whole "offensive to Catholics" thing (which, as a Catholic, it is very offensive to me), it's just generally shitty sportsmanship. You already won; you don't have to point and laugh at your rival when they're down, too.

that is my thinking. If this was a barbie in a hijad, Jezebel would be throwing a shit fit. But hey, lets all make fun of the Catholics.

I am an atheist too and I agree with you. Unsportsmanlike, bullying and it's rude to mock people's deepest held beliefs even if you don't agree with them. I know Christianity has perpetuated great evil in the world but not all Christians are bad people.

I think the clear distinction here is that this is a move to try to hurt those kids they beat, not the Catholic Church. That's why this doesn't deserve the kind of defense that, say, Piss Christ does.

Exactly. Putting the religious bit aside, I don't understand why Jezebel would want to celebrate bad sportsmanship. It's as important to teach kids to be gracious in victory as in defeat.

This is what got me too. If nothing else, their coaches/parents should take them to task for not only exhibiting incredibly poor sportsmanship, but gleefully making it public. Mocking a just-defeated rival isn't cute, clever, or edgy — it's just being an asshole. Don't be those people. I'd want those girls to

Bare minimum it's not sportsman(sportswoman)like at all. Celebrating your victory is one thing - mocking the values of your opponent is another thing completely.

Exactly, this a complete asshole move.

Nah, you're being a decent human being. This was pretty insensitive and overboard in my opinion. Back in my day it was all about making dumb slogans in regards to the mascot, (Bully the Bulldogs, Sink the Pirates... That kind of stuff) not this crap.

I'll probably get flamed for this...
