That was badly worded. What I had in mind was that many cultures that we perceive today as being distinct actually arose due to cultural appropriation. One of the best examples of cultural appropriation is the evolution of language. The point is that cultural appropriation, like diversity, tends to enrich people's

Charlize Theron had a relationship with that lead singer. Between your story and now Sean Penn I think she has two eyes that are blind.

Yeah, if Amy Poehler had been offended, this might be a COMPLETELY DIFFERENT story. But it's not a different story. Amy told the story because she thought it was hilariously funny. Also, she didn't take Jon seriously because, afterall, he was joking.

actor makes a comment that was treated as a joke at the time and was later reported as a joke.

I'm gonna guess that it was one of those deadpanned jokes like, "here's this woman who is going through a meltdown and this guy disarms her by coming over and pretending he is more important." And coming from Jon Hamm, who probably is already dressed up like Don Draper, I'm sure it really helped break the ice.

I'm sure I'll get vilified for this, but… I believe his apology. The paparazzo knew what he was doing and got the reaction he was hoping for.

No, I'm practicing for the future. How am I doing?

Mark, has Buzzfeed started writing your headlines?

Your mom wishes you would call. Why don't you ever call?

I TAIP RAEL GUDE NAO,

Are you looking to hire? As a quality reviewer, I can be an essential asset to your team.

Nice photo, but I'm not sure how it proves all bodies are bikini bodies. I mean, I support any woman of any size and shape wearing a bikini if she wants to, but the women depicted here all have conventionally attractive shapes (wide hips/bum, narrower waist), taut and unstretchmarked skin, and flat bellies — this

Thank god, they're allowing everyone to be sexy. God forbid you just go to the damn beach to have a good time, or just, you know, swim.

Well, it's like anything, really. Escalator, aspirin, thermos, cellophane, yo-yo, zipper, etc. When something is popular enough, it becomes a genericized trademark. All of those things I mentioned were brand name trademarks that just got too popular for their own good and lost their trademarks.

If you're going to go after someone for her word choice, you should really get the word right. She used let, yet you repeatedly said, even put in quotation mars, "allow."

And here we see why rabid feministas aren't taken seriously.

You're reaching there bud. It's ok. We seldom expect the people we're yelling at to actually be members of a group we're purporting to protect. I know you probably found that jarring. I'm still, for the record, handicapped and unable to flee any situation that would require it. But it's ok, call me ableist. And

You're speaking to a group of women, many of which have been sexually assaulted. Rapists are no scare tactic that we employ; for us, they have names, faces, and very real lives that intertwine with our own.

I know where my rapist goes to school, and I know which bars he frequents. I know who he's friends with, and I

Hey. Glad you are rocking the jump to conclusion mat today, but I was handicapped for well over a decade and I am well aware of what it's like to not have the option of fleeing danger or defending yourself. I owe you absolutely nothing, so the only reason I tell you that is in the hopes that you consider that maybe

Argh I'm so fucking sick of this idea that women shouldn't be taking responsibility for their own safety because in a perfect world they wouldn't have to. Living in a fantasy world won't keep you safe! Predators are out there, and they will continue to be out there. You can't just sit around waiting for society to
