Louie hit this one on the head. I've dated a lot of heavier girls and I've definitely felt the judgement from other men. The problem isn't that men don't like big girls; it's that men don't like the way other men look at them when they're with big girls. It's a societal issue that Louis illustrates flawlessly. It's

Just to interject facts here, but the article fails to excerpt the quote from the original piece that in fact it was not (and never believed to be) Jay Ferguson who punched the guy in the throat. He was just there, being a dick like the rest of them, but he wasn't the attacker. A lawsuit about the whole thing was

It's more terrifying to imagine my children not being aware that this exists. Sorry, I disagree.

There's an undercurrent to JGL that comes across perpetually smug and douchey to me, even if he's not an outright prick. He's Bono-esque, if you will.

I've read and listened to a few interviews Ferguson gave in the last couple of years, since he's been on Mad Men. He sounded quite humble and grounded, he talked about depression and his experience as a struggling actor. It seems to me like he's enjoying his life as a family man now.

Gee, thanks for letting the women know ! I guess they were wrong about this the whole time.

The fact that the most often targeted dialects are associated with people of color, young women, and lower class people should make this obvious. Yet I often see self-described progressives (including myself as a younger man) get incredibly uppity about language use, obnoxiously correcting or mocking the grammar of

YAY FOR LINGUISTICS! I only took one linguistics class in college, but I was fascinated by the misconceptions that were elucidated to me about language. Pretty much everyone criticizes the language of others and feels their own use of language is superior. But what linguists will tell you is that language just is, and

Hexane is all natural.

What I always hated was that I grew up as the daughter of a divorced woman who had the sole responsibility for raising the three of us. She once got passed up for a promotion because—in the words of the hiring manager at the time, "Well, [this man] has a family to feed."

Even in the animal kingdom, right? I learned recently that wolf packs don't even have that type of structure.

Because marriage is incorporating two people into one institution. That includes merging of finances for most marriages. Some people include clauses into the incorporation paperwork that include planning for possible dissolution.

The same reason why spouses of incredibly rich women get so much damned money.

I would LOVE if my wife earned more $$$ than me. More money earned by my wife is more money for our entire family. Which means more disposable income for stuff like....nice vacations, new clothes, maybe some fancy new electronic gadgets.

A side note: This is even MORE busted than you might think. The biologist who coined the term "alpha male" has since decided his own research was flawed and has been campaigning, without success, to have the book that coined the term (which he wrote) taken out of print. So "alpha women" is based on a "scientific" idea

Really, Jez? Nobody is going to mention the fact she was assaulted last time she was at a brazil meet-n-greet? Really? That's why no one can touch her now. Brazil lost it's touching-privilege.

Everything about your statement makes me cringe. Why the hell would anyone still buy DVDs is beyond me. It's the equivalent of buying McDonalds fast food when they have a better tasting healthier option right next door for only a few bucks more.

As a movie collector, I wholeheartedly disagree. 1080p Netflix != 1080p Blu-ray. I prefer quality over quantity.

Agree with everything except the thing about "reproducing the City's landscape down to the wire".

They should. 3DS is doing A LOT better than WII U
