He didn't order a side of racism with his underage tits?

I never experienced anything like the bicycle guy, but I've had plenty of guys get in my personal space and act aggressively. This used to happen to me all the time when I lived in Seattle - on the bus, walking down the street, in restaurants, at the library..... "smile!", "what are you reading/listening to?" I'd get…

"Petulant Brooklyn Crotch Quarterly (tagline: "Sure, I'll Masturbate. Whatever.")" - I think you've got a winner there.

She is the awesomeness that others aspire to.

Made me sad, too - watching this little one playing on the concrete floor with rubber balls that it didn't seem that interested in. Maybe this wasn't representative of it's life, but it didn't seem very stimulated. I'm not a big fan of zoos. I've yet to go to one that didn't depress the hell out of me.

....um, yeah. Something is definitely different here. Not sure if I like it but it's better than the previous incarnation - the infinite Russian nesting doll comments.

Not relevant, indeed. It's like she just discovered Ann Coulter and realized that being a complete asshat and a fake will get her a lot of attention - which she apparently desperately needs.

Ditto. But I think most surgery requires some sort of imaging and a waiting period, so I think the premise is kind of flawed. Of course, the purpose of an ultrasound for most surgery is diagnostic -not to shame the patient or question their morals.

We have the same situation with the timed feedings and measured food, and one of the cats is constantly crying or trying to get up on the counter when it's close to meal-time or when we spend more than a moment in the kitchen. I had been thinking of a timed feeder because in the morning he sits on the bed and stares…

Oh, and I think it's crappy that they won't let men sit next to a child. It's not as if the only one the kid will interact with is the person sitting next to him. He could sit next to a nice lady, but every time he get's up to go to the bathroom he runs the risk of some perv following him in there or touching him as…

Not to be overly glib, but what about the gender discrimination of women being asked to sit next to strangers' children "since no one in their right mind would want to sit next to a little kid for the duration of their flight"? Can you say no without feeling like a bitch for the rest of the flight? I was on a flight…

I flew alone with my sister when we were 11 and 12. We sat together with no supervision and spent the flight cracking each other up by pretending to have epileptic fits. We must have violently kicked the seats in front of a dozen times. I can't imagine why those people didn't turn around and slap us.

That's very precious - in a good way. Thanks for sharing. What would we do without our silly furry friends?

Agreed. A writer on a women's site attributing this man's anger at his girlfriend for trying to communicate with her friends as a silly misunderstanding of how social media works - it's maddeningly obtuse. I get that not everyone knows a lot about domestic violence but it just goes to underscore how lacking the…

I don't think Silverman is funny. Well, not my kind of humor, I should say. Wiig on the other hand is so versatile and creative - she's very funny and very smart. Silverman is undoubtedly smart, but she channels it all towards thinking up new asshole jokes.

I'm sorry you didn't have the chance to confront him. I had a much less horrific experience when I was younger that left me exceedingly angry for a long time, so I can only imagine how you feel. In my case I was walking through a crowd of tourists in eastern Europe with a friend when a stranger reached out and grabbed…

You touched on this, but to me what stands out is the gender role reversal and our general uncomfortableness with seeing men in vulnerable positions. Aside from those who think women's stripping as empowering, most people think of it as humiliating and sexually subservient. I'm not surprised if people are…

There was a fantastic story on NPR last week that highlighted the role Quvenzhane Wallis played in influencing the script and the development of her character. Highly recommend it:

"Nowhere to Go" - it's like he's telling us this is the story of a woman trapped in a messy apartment as seen through the eyes of a photographer with a butt fetish.

That's interesting. I guess I don't know enough people who buy season tickets rather than the occasional single game ticket. I'm glad to know there are people out there who do things like that for the community.
