Jon Stewart: please justify my crush on you by hiring Sarah Haskins. It would make the world a better, fairer, and let's face it, funnier place.

@daringdropout: Shoes! Boys! PREGNANCY!

@sayruh: @LillithFlair: Not being American, I feel deprived of chances to see her in the flesh. I will Google her up though. I had heard plenty about her, but this was the first time I saw her interviewed. What a hero.

@BullyTerrier: You're right. Noticing that a lot less than half of Daily Show contributors are women, while almost exactly half of actual people are women, and wondering why that might be... It's practically Jacques Derrida up in here amirite?

How have I never seen her interviewed before? Awesome.

@RedJenny: Hearted. I am absolutely not implying there's anything wrong with Anne being a sexual human being; she was, and we know she was, because she told us. But writing a completely fictional account of her having sex with someone in order to sell books? My God. Sometimes I think honest female voices just aren't…

@historygirl: Historical fiction is actually a huge market. Many famous and even highly-regarded works of fiction are based on the lives of real people. Just to toss out a not-exactly-highly-regarded but at least rather famous example, "Girl with a Pearl Earring" is based on the real life of the Dutch painter Johannes…

@Sparklepants: Huge triumph. My congratulations.

@LadyPerseverance: I know. Seriously. Was he being "jokingly offensive" or is he really that stupid? I'm not American, but I shudder to think of someone like that in politics.

He sent this in an email to ARIEL LEVY? One of the most recognisable feminist names of the last fifteen years? I hope he called Jessica Valenti afterwards and said, "shut that blog down and show us your tits," otherwise he's just being lazy.

@LadyTudorRose: Maybe it's like "Courtney Love you, 'kay?"

@annebreal: I think the joke is in the subversion of men's expectations of women, not a joke at the expense of woman actually knowing stuff lolzzzz. The message seems to be, "women who know stuff are awesome, now buy Lays".

@Highsmith: "Most painfully thin or painfully overweight people struggle with eating issues."

@Justine: I feel ya, buddy. I feel ya.

@1girl: Yes! In the mirror, I think I look nice, and then seeing myself in pictures I look bordering on the grotesque. What is this? Please let the mirror one be more true. (I doubt that it's more true).

@eclare09: Thank you. Hearted for your clarification and my agreement.

@esprit-follet: No one is more anti-US-centrism than I, a humble Irish woman (or as Jez would have it, a resident of "the UK"). But I think her arguments in this case are US-centric for a reason: she deserves equality in the country she calls home.

@esprit-follet: Yeah. That's totes what all the women and minorities should do too. If there's sexism, racism or homophobia in the country you were brought up in and call home, GTFO MY COUNTRY LOL.

Obviously, a huge part of me feels awful for this woman and what she has gone through. On the other hand, the resistance movement is massively significant in Iran and I don't think dragging them through the dirt for a mix-up can be beneficial at this stage (not that that's what this article is doing).

@avec_accent: Would that I were one of those hipsters. My friend won two tickets but we couldn't go. HEARTBREAK.
