I find it entertaining that you use a Jon Stewart gif to flip Bernie off when Jon himself thinks Hillary is a vapid, soulless meat puppet. Jussayin.

Can I ask a question? I’m not being a troll or a smartass - but why do you think a woman being President will necessarily change anything about your daughter’s life other than knowing that a woman is / has been President? Do you think the systematic sexism in our society is going to change in any way because of this?…

You’re still practically a child so actually chill.

I think engagement rings are gawdy and tacky and horrible. I think the tradition should have died long ago, and when I see ladies in public flashing their bling like it makes them anything other than just a person, I judge them. Harshly. Also, their value is totally false anyway (the diamonds, not the ladies,…

Christianity is a Western (read: from elsewhere, not from Africa) influence, so people in Africa who say they’re against homosexuality because JEBUS, ought to reevaluate the history of how they came to be Christian in the first place. I’d ditch that shit in a jiffy.

I also worked at a Subway (so glad to hear these are your favorite stories). My story is short but fucked up: I worked there when I was 16, and was often left alone. This was in a small New England town before the present heroin/pill epidemic became a problem. so that was really no big deal, plus my parents lived a 10…

yes, also the way Brienne screamed just the shot cut away sounded like she could have caught it in the back before getting to kill Stannis. I’ll believe whatever it is when I see it!

@Yoko:

Um, no, the models should not be able to make decisions about what is acceptable in advertising. It is not their field. Models should have control over what they wear and how they look, which hasn’t happened in, oh, ever since modeling became a thing. That’s not fair but that’s not the issue here. The issue here is…

In order to be seen and acknowledged and respected, trans people shouldn’t have to embody cisnormative standards of beauty.

I think.

Palpably. Uncomfortable.

Much like 30 Rock, this show requires some nuance of thought. Yes there are slap stick moments of delicious shallowness, but if you really want to appreciate Fey, don't try to be offended - try to think!

That's a totally valid point. I suppose I was thinking strictly of physical abuse, but you're right.

I'm all down with metal, but Juliette seems to have mastered the body language / flailing, and not so much the singing part. Maybe off key is MAF now too?

Maybe I'm being an over-sensitive doink here, but it doesn't really read to me like the neighbors were aiming to help anybody. It seems like they were laughing at a guy who threatened suicide (not the first time I've seen NYCers do this).

My yesterday was shite, too. Boss yelled at me for no good reason in front of two colleagues, sister shut down making any long term travel plans with me, I felt like the most single, most undateable person ever due to massive zit outbreak, I was hungover as FFFFFFF from the weekend, I am the opposite of financially…

Fair enough; they're all pretty annoying. That man is just so my type (physically)!

Slightly related note... any other watchers of Salem (I found it on Netflix) out here? It's a guilty pleasure. SOOOOOO far from the truth, much more Hawthorne than fact, but I'll be damned if Shane West's heat doesn't make up for it...

I know, I'll make my philanthropy about ME! Look at ME!

These challenges are so fucking offensive.

Am I really alone in being game to try these out? I'm imagining something amazing, something that will make soft carnival music play in my head, something that will make me young again, something whipped and fluffy and whimsical... something I'll binge on while stoned and never, ever be able to eat again.
