Goodness yes I HATE "jhorts" as I call them. They were all the rage in EUrope last summer (or the one before? can't even remember)

I would tend towards the, "even if it 's forced, it's a step" thinking. And I think it's an important step. It shows that the government knows that discrimination against the group isn't acceptable, and that they must stop doing so. When kids are forced to apologize to their parents, they don't mean it. But the…

Again, the concern was that the kid needed to be hooked up to specific medial equipment that runs on battery, which would run out in 24hrs. Since they didn't know why the child was taken, and they thought it might be over objections to his treatment, THAT is the cause for the great dramatic push.

They kept mentioning specific concern (in the media bulletins that ran all day) that the child has battery powered medical equipment that would run our of "juice" in about 24 hours. So I think the concern - since they didn't know at the time why he was taken from the hospital - was that he needed to be found within…

I think the news reports kept mentioning that because they didn't know at the time exactly why the parents took the kid out of the hospital and absconded with him. I heard those media bulletins all day and some were wondering if it was to do with religious beliefs on medical practice.

I don't mind at all and thank you for that. I agree with (with your opinion on) all of those examples! So it's not that she's a feminist or whatever that you disagree with. It's some of her positions on what she considers to be a "wrong" or whatnot. I can totally get behind you on that. Thanks!

Oh I see. You're just an ass. Got it.

IMO this is the only way to go. At least this way, charity gets the money. It's brilliant, actually. There is no way NOT to have "a million women shit their pants seeing another woman in a wedding dress".

Dammit! Marisa Tomei...makes anything worthwhile. We don't see her enough. I'm THERE!

This makes me want to burn things. I can't even say I know much about Native American Indian culture or beliefs, but I DAMN WELL know that long hair is part of them (aside from the fact this would be ridiculous for any kid to go through, that fact that he's NAI, I just CAN'T!) WHO DOESN'T KNOW THAT?!

That is just...beyond. We need a stronger word for "irony" these days. C'mon, dipshits! (the school)

You know, I've always felt suspicious of Spears. I'm not a hater, but she always rubbed me a liiiittle wrong, even while bobbing unselfconsciously to some of her music. I think it generally had something to do with her seeming really fake in a way that is just typical for women from small, southern towns (being form…

Thanks for a mature reaction to her pieces. I'm interested in your argument. Specifically, what kind of unrealistic world ("that no one really deserves to live in") does she argue to live in? (I don't follow her so am curious.)

God, the things that could be growing in my dad's upstairs. He doesn't use the second floor of the house at all sis all us cubs moved out. *shiver* We all live far away so those rooms only get used about once every 3 months (when I do make it for a visit).

I love this story. The gif was made for it.

No. There's something about the fact that KS looks like she's pissed off and smells something bad, all the time. Maybe she has #BRF. I don't need her to smile. But when you're in situations where one is supposed to be happy (both in her acting and in "real life") and you are scowling...it's just off putting. I want to…

So true. And so hilarious.

Reminds me of Kristen Wiig.

(OK this isn't spelling, but:) When I was studying abroad, I traveled over my spring break and (among other teenage funsies) got my belly button pierced. *At the time* that was a very edgy thing to do (I am A Old and they were a bit provincial). Anyhow, on the first day back the professor asked us of each of us, as a…

I am now bummed that the "ling" ending does not work with my name. So any new dreams crushed after but a millisecond of joy...
