Yeah, that's not the right way of talking about the issue. If Mindy doesn't want to address it on her show, that's fine. Some comedies don't tackle serious issues. But the abortion episodes in Sex and the City and Girls worked well enough, even though both shows shied away from having the character follow through with…

So, I agree there are ways to mention it in a sitcom but I think the show would have to have a good reason to use it because it IS an important issue. I think it could be fit in somehow and have wondered this myself before about the show.

I'd probably just start clapping back at the other person, like "oh, we're clapping now. that's what's happening."

I feel bad for the lead. Poor girl is just looking for a break/ paycheck and ends up being called a mockery of another actress's good looks.

A server friend of mine once had a customer say "I'd like the Steak Flambe, but I'm allergic to Flambe". As in "I claim I am allergic to anything that sounds unfamiliar".

As someone who dines with many people with Celiac, I HATE the fad dieters. They make things so hard for those with legit issues because now everyone's the boy who cried gluten. I can see the servers eyes glaze over (especially in hipster places around NYC) because they think this is another poser dork who doesn't…

I only make this point because people that play the gluten allergy card are fatiguing servers into not believing them. "I have a gluten allergy, oh and can you bring us some more free dinner rolls?"

One further caveat. Can people who are not allergic or insensitive to gluten please stop requesting gluten free. I am tired as a server of trying to ascertain whether the minuscule amount of gluten contamination in a dish is a problem or whether you are just being picky because of some diet fad.

"I know Barry at Burger King. Always makes it my way. I'm big time stuff there!"

*passenger will be frozen and stacked in storage bin with other frozen passengers to be defrosted at destination. Survival of defrosting not guaranteed.

I once blurted out "what, no you're not!" when someone tried that lie about onions once. Whoopsie! Oh well....

I know a guy who prides himself on the fact that he will walk into any nice restaurant and demand to speak to the head chef immediately. Then he says "I don't want anything on the menu, I want you to make me your personal best/favorite dish." He is convinced every chef loves him for this. I am convinced otherwise.

But what if I have an allergy, and I didn't notice that the ingredient WAS listed on the menu, and then it came out and everything was fine other than the fact that it has this thing I'm allergic to and I just can't read? Can I send it back then?

I'm just so very glad that we are talking about this problem. That we are being vocal about how it's not right and that we should not have to put up with it.
I was walking home yesterday from the market and some asshole did the "You'd look prettier with a smile" thing to me and I told him he'd be prettier if he just…

Can Jessica Williams just take over the world please? She is fantastic. I was cheering in my living room watching that.

OMG the original dress is amazing!!!!

Apparently Kim lopped off the top portion of a gown and is using it as a skirt. Tom & Lorenzo have a picture of the entire gown and it is gorgeous. This just looks horrible and sad and ridiculous.

I entirely hate the costume. And I will never cope with Peter being a woman. Could not deal as a kid, and it's distracting now. Maybe because I always hate the way they all play him, it's embarrassing.

I can't understand what's happening with her mouth? What kind of a facial expression is that???

Good for them.
