Yeah, I imagine that dress + not being Taylor Swift-sized at the Met Ball = so much terrifying anxiety that a return trip is off the table. I love looking at the clothes every year, but my size 8-10 self wouldn't want to go stand next to all those people either.

Even less popular opinion (here): Jennifer Lawrence is a terrific actor, and is not overrated.

It’s Hipster Hate.

I respect her hustle and that she works hard. And she doesn’t strike me as quite the mean girl as Taylor Swift. But Lawrence is the most basic of Beckys with it comes to acting skill.

Popular opinion: calling things overrated is overrated.

Super Popular Opinion that SOMEONE posts on EVERY article that references this article.

We GET IT.

Agreed, needs more shiplap.

That tile is ugly and already looks dated.

I think EVERY recent reno in Brooklyn has that tile in the kitchen and bathroom. I hate it.

I haven’t texted him either, but I think the ball is in his court because he cancelled without offering to reschedule.

I don’t know if you’ve ever listened to the This American Life piece, but they actually play parts of her phone conversation with her troll. It’s incredibly affecting.

Hello. I’m coming out of my long-time lurking to post this.

I’m 19 days sober today and I’m loving my life! I’ve been going to six meetings a week and enjoying most of them (with exception to the AA meetings, as a rule I prefer NA for various reasons, not the least of which being I was never a big drinker). Next week I collect my orange one month keytag and I get to sport it

I know. I still miss some of the many commenters who got trolled away. Mindymoo ! You out there girl ? Yoga Nerd ? Moriarty ? We all still miss you !

I am so sorry. I hope everything will be okay and that you can speak to your parents about this set up better boundaries around this in the future. Stay safe!

Do you honestly think he’s a worse husband than Bill Clinton?

Oh god. Is that a piercing in the middle of a soul patch!? That is horrible. Just, ugh. Also that hat is the worst. So much awful hair in bad places. *cat vomit noises*

yeah I’m not welcoming anyone until they submit at least three lentil recipes.

My god, Jamaica Kincaid, if you read the comments here at Jezebel, please know you are one of my heroes. “Girl” changed my life.
