Jesus fucking Christ

I remember him freaking out but I can’t remember why. What set him off?

I genuinely don’t think he understood, which is why I didn’t bother to argue with him about it. He is an only child, and was very spoiled, and I come from a very large family that all have each other’s garage codes & don’t knock before entering each other’s homes. He does not get the idea of family obligations, or…

I had a group interview at a Whole Foods back when employees would participate in the hiring. For some reason one of the employees interviewing took an instant and massive dislike to me. When I tried to answer questions, she rolled her yes, cut me off, and talked over me. No one at the table reacted in the slightest.

What in th everlasting fuck?!?

Ugh, avoiding eggs is almost impossible when it comes to dessert. No cakes, no mouse, no ice cream. :(

No problem. Kinja is tricky that way

I’m allergic to gluten so I’ve gotten used to never getting to eat dessert at family dinners, or in most restaurants. One Thanksgiving, someone brought me a mini gluten-free apple pie. I was so overjoyed—it was a big fucking deal to me. Not just bc of the pie itself, but that someone made a special trip to buy me my…

Hahahaha!

I know. Being in a Woody Allen film still has such prestige, yet it doesn’t seem to bring actors better roles, or change the way the industry sees them. Maybe Diane Keaton 30 years ago, but that’s about it.

I am trying to imagine the kind of monster who doesn't laugh at Holy Grail. You are well rid of him.

This parody is amazing

Oh, potato, potatoe

That is so fucking hilarious. Co-workers actually complained about me studying in the break room while clocked out and using the break room computer to register for classes during my scheduled breaks. People are so petty and weird when it comes to higher education

Oh thanks! I didn't know about these. I saw him in the PBS documentaries about the Civil Rights movement and he was fascinating.

When I worked at Whole Foods, I was told I would have to choose between grad school and “my career”. I said, “OK, grad school then.”

I just wish they would bring back the banjos.

I lived in Memphis for a few years as a kid and one of my teachers constantly told us that Southerners would always be judged because of their accents. So we must be vigilant about using regional slang that would make us sound uneducated. We were not allowed to say “fixin’ to” or “gonna” or drop our g’s.

I think you may be right! Tom has mad Avengers money. He & Taylor can afford a top tier PR firm. There is no possible way a professional would concoct such overly earnest bullshit. Unless they hired Tom Cruise’s sister, who approved the couch jumping and yelling at Matt Lauer shit.

Yes, and also worth noting is that Ivanka’s perspective about what constitutes a supportive father is likely pretty skewed. She grew up among monied set and went to boarding school, and I would imagine that she & most of her friends spent much more time with nannies and tutors than their families. So she may be…
