Well, why would one want to be friends with an asshole? 

Wait, I am confused.  Did you all eat from the same bagel? 

“Shouldn’t have stolen that Fizzy Lifting Drink.”
 

Excuses I heard about Michael Vick’s behavior from football obsessed co-workers when the whole thing came to light: “He didn’t know what he did to the dogs was wrong.” “That’s the way he was brought up, culturally. It’s not a big deal.” “Where’s your forgiveness? He said he was sorry. You really have a black heart,…

In the words of Michelle Visage of “Drag Race, “Lotion up, girl! Lotion. Up.”

I haven’t watched this clip, but I can tell you from experience (I played Christine in a touring production of “Phantom”) the entire “Phantom of the Opera” song is pre-recorded, with the actors lip synching. And if you’re a Christine who doesn’t have the high notes, they just turn the knob in the recording booth and…

I am allergic to eggs and am not allowed to get a flu shot. I am tired of people that I know bullying me to get the shot anyways. It’s out of control.

That’s totally why I reported it/her!

And we know that Melania has no trouble doing it!

A friend of mine told me about a free-lance designing job that Ivanka was advertising for on her company, on her site (it’s no longer there) The job description was ridiculous—-although it was considered “free-lance,” it was full time, you had to be in the office the entire time, hours were 9:00am to 6:00, you…

I was in Venice about two weeks ago, and I saw this exhibition. The guards gave me hell for trying to take a photo in the room, although there were no signs saying photos were not allowed (And yes, my camera was set to “no flash.”) I think it’s hilarious that THAT’S what concerned them the most, not that people would…

I worked at a fancy boutique hotel in NYC back in the late 90's. The hours were long, and the staff were much abused by the clientele. We took our amusements any way we could get them. One night, after consulting the list of guests arriving that evening, I assigned Mr. Hamburg and Mr. Frankfurter to rooms right next…

I work in Rockefeller Center, and a colleague of mine told me that she saw Megyn Kelly in the lower lobby concourse around 8:00 this morning, wearing a sleeveless outfit of light blue, navy and white, which is not what she was wearing on the show. I don’t know why I felt compelled to share this, but in the desire to…

Actors’ Equity would have certainly made sure for Oak was paid for those three weeks. If you’re let go and have a Principal (for a leading role) contract, the producers have to pay you until the end of the contract. It still stinks all around but he would have gotten the salary at least.

Yes, it does. They just replaced Brittain Ashford, who originated the role of Sonya in “Great Comet” from the very first production off-off-Broadway, with Ingrid Michaelson for three weeks to boost box office. (I believe Ms. Ashford will go back in the show after IM leaves) Sting went in to play a role in his…

You just made my day.....

The GOP will not give two shits about this, either.

Yes, I knew what we would be getting, which is why I didn’t vote for him! (And it wasn’t the only reason that I voted for Hilary!)

Thank you, and to HelenaHBasket, for these book recommendations. I will try and pick both of them up.

I went over to Europe in February, and I felt that I needed to apologize to people there when they found out I was American. Sadly, they completely understood my embarrassment. And to top it off, I was unfairly hassled by Customs at the airport upon my return. The agent literally told me that he didn’t believe that…
