Dear Met gala celebrities,

Story of my life ;)

I feel like the answer could lie somewhere in the realm of the designer attempting to articulate the crucial item needed to complete the outfit in an abstract sense. Like, if you said "Hand me that pair of pants," you use 'pants' because it's a thing that you need; if you said "This dress would pair wonderfully with a…

You are 100% correct in saying that our criminal justice system is completely fucked. Slightly different topic, but I would really recommend "The House I Live In." It's an amazing documentary that came out early this year about the criminal justice system and the 'war on drugs' and how corrupt and racist it is, and it…

That first TIME meme on the left is the best. For real, I don't think the boomers have any fracking room to talk.

I think you spelled "whiskey" wrong.

OMG Xena. I say we bring back Lucy Lawless. The whiny blonde can stay at home tho... (sorry I never liked Gabrielle.)

I think maybe not at Ren fairs, but at large Cons, yes, only because you'll have more hardcore groups of fans there and those are the types that geek out over the details you mention. I totally know what sort of folks you're talking about, too; they're the ones you're likely to encounter at the WoT guest panels at…

I definitely think you'll find this is something that will fade with age, for the simple reason that (assuming you're still single) when you're heading into the late 20s, early 30s dating pool, by then most folks have been with a number of people and I find (as someone in my late 20s) that people care much less about…

This picture makes me so angry. I want to kick the shit out of these boys.

Not blathering at all, that was a great comment. Normally, like your friend, I'm not at all shy and very direct about what I want, but sometimes getting rejected/thrown by a guy you really like can suddenly make you question everything. I was driving my friends nuts rehashing what I should do in any given situation…

Hmm. Fair enough. I guess we'll just agree to disagree then. Could just be because I'm an artist meself, so maybe for me it's more looking for that degree of creative compatibility.

Whoa there, easy Sparky. We may have lost each other in translation here. I'm not saying I like "being chased." Actually reading advice such as—and I quote—"ladies, you need to sit back and be a prize waiting to be won. Men love to chase." makes me want to vomit. I don't want to be a prize. I don't want to be passive.…

Meh. The rich can't do punk, y'all. It's not really about the studs and fauxhawks. #missingthepoint

Yep. You get it, Kerry girl.

Yeah, no kidding. Jeez. For the record, I got what you were trying to say :)

But of course. That's what I would consider normal human behavior- you consider the entire package before deciding to date someone or not. Switch "men" and "women" in what you said and I'd still say it makes perfect sense. I am more talking about the men I've known who will otherwise like a girl but are off-put by her…

I remember something equally weird and disgusting in my southern abstinence education. They had a line of boys take a sip of water, swish it around in their mouths and spit into this little cup. Then they asked a girl if she wanted to drink it [huuurk]. When the grossed-out girl said, of course not, they made some…

This is something I've felt strongly about for a long time, ever since I had the first logic-devoid argument with a guy about how they had zero problems using women for sex but wouldn't date these same women because they were "easy."

Well, it's nice to see that we've kept a high level of decorum on this thread.
