@yumpopink: I was shocked thinking it was US Elle! I couldn't read the India.

Can we have a Jez #giftswap?

Hard to compare a studio shot under lights with a fuzzy nighttime candid. Could we instead celebrate that U.S. Elle is branching into exciting, lesser-known, non-Kate Hudson cover models??

Haha my boyfriend is from the South and I'm from Connecticut and last night he said, "I swear, Kim is not from Atlanta. She's from your state." And he was RIGHT!

@Nick Denton: I feel as though Gawker is trying to wage a war with 4Chan, and I'm a little uncomfortable participating because I don't like to be involved in the one-upping of hackers. Is Gawker planning to take a step back from ridiculing them and just try to live and let live a little, for the sake of everyone's…

@Jessica Coen: A little! But it's very small and I don't know Nick Denton from Mary Magdalene. For all I know, King of 4Chan posted that photo. The wording on the initial "uhoh" post on Gawker seemed out-of-usual-tone-of-voice to me and terrified me.

I felt very insecure typing both my old and new password in to that little box on Gawker on Sunday. How do I know 4Chan is not up here running the site for the day? How do we have any proof you guys are even at the helm?

@Ella_Menope: I actually asked for my account to be deleted once when my family members discovered who I was and it was supposedly deleted, but then when I tried logging in again, there I was, with all my history...like deleting an FB account, it never seems to truly go away.

@LoSpaz: Yeah, I'm Vermont. We don't have "winter looks" as much as "a winter look" which includes which hat+scarf+puffy coat+duck boot combo you'd like to be identified by this year from afar.

@GREGORYABUTLER10031: "Do you want to BE Brett Michaels or DO Brett Michaels? Your life depends on it."

@GREGORYABUTLER10031: Maybe instead they should play TLC and see if the "gays" are able to stay awake or not.

But...straight porn is full of huge cocks?

I actually think this was a good year for Vogue covers. There's only one true teeny-bopper (Lively), a fair array of ages, Tina Fey, Angelina, Marion looking f-ing amazing and proving you can have wide shoulder blades and still be smoking, and Anne Hathaway, for some reason representing Latinas. Fair round-up.

I continue to be amazed at how much we've learned about manipulating the reactions of the penis and appearance of the boobs through science and how little we know about the process of birth.

Kathy, hunny, the best part about the Palins is you don't have to mock their looks! They provide all the jokes themselves! What an idiotic disservice she's done herself. I hope it's career-ending.

I knew this to be true!!!

@Coldwine: This type of thing is basically 35% of my work.

One-on-one social events with your boss (ie: Let's take a quick trip to Target/Ikea after the meeting!)

@ArtAttack: You are 100% on that. I draw in people who don't speak English, people who are lost, people who are homeless. They flock to me. I wear sunglasses when I'm flying — the ENTIRE TIME.

I have a "kind face" which helped me in my early twenties because I looked impressionable and eager-to-please. Now I always feel I'm being read immediately as naive or untrained. I have to be sure to be articulate and almost aggressively assertive to prove I'm not just what my face says I am.
