There’s a difference between “I don’t know wft she’s saying,” and “I don’t understand those words so they must not be real.”

My dad’s Jamaican, and many visits to the island when I was younger when I couldn’t make out what people were saying to me, “I don’t know what you said. Can you repeat that.” And they would laugh it off (and at me) and repeat what they said with less slang or slower.

white people working extra to fool their lifeless hair into becoming some nasty bird’s nest with a dream of becoming locs is honestly the weirdest shit

“On this week’s episode of white people please cut it out...”

YES. For fuck’s sake. That was one of the most embarrassing things I’ve ever seen on the internet.

A lot of allusions to performing painful sex acts sandwiched in between diatribes about respect and hierarchy. A sort of MacKinnon-Paglia pidgin, if you will.

Not gonna lie. At first glance, I thought that was six pictures of Kim Kardashian.

the thing I don’t get is how it seems like most of these women are so fearful of their man cheating, or not “following through” with marrying them. like, what?

Ewww I hate mommy-policing. My mom is the ultimate mommy-police. My sister will send out photos of the kids eating dinner in a group text and my mom will respond back with “ZOMG! The plate looks too hot, they will get 3rd degree burns. You should know better than to feed them hot food!”

No, she was doing her job the way other critics do their job which is why they have special screenings for the press.

this movie looks questionable but why isn’t kathryn hahn in everything? always? all the time?

It really sounds like this film is exactly what your would expect for a movie about motherhood written by men. There’s a lot to explore when it comes to being a ‘bad’ mom in a culture where mothering trends tend to keep women tied to their babies for longer and longer (extended breastfeeding, co-sleeping, etc), yet…

You were taking notes on your phone in a movie theater? You are not a bad mom, just a bad person.

As a person who doesn’t have a child yet, I agree with you. Moms now loooove to play the martyr role when it comes to being a mom. At the same time, I can see why maybe some people would want this type of movie to be made, if it was made to truly make fun of those uptight mom types who take it way too seriously? My…
