what's shocking to me is the confidence, not the "i think" or "i don't think" but "i know that spanking [affected me] [did not affect me]."

it's closer at hand than that. they don't even need to wait to procreate to be able to identify with the victim, they could just look in the mirror. these are football fans, who were around 10 years old in 2002. themselves. it could have been any one of them.

i guess this is proof that college football fandom is a religion...

i do hope he still finds you persistently edible and for many years to come.

"I think there are just some guys who seem to feel entitled to such women's interest, based solely on the fact they themselves are attracted to them. " god that is so true.

i think this is a symptom of prolonged adolescence. i'm a 33 year old woman. i have to consciously remind myself that the balding 35-40 year old dude walking towards me on the street is actually totally within my range and the 26 year old with the full head of hair behind him looks at me and thinks "kindly aunt" not…

same here for both grimm and terra nova. and i think the difference is, fun? fun!

sometimes i avoid geeky gatherings just because of this. when i see senseless misogyny or fat shaming or a general lack of empathy from other segments of society, it sucks, but, it's not unexpected. i know what the deal is. but when i see it from nerds it really doesn't stop bugging me. it's like a betrayal. i was…

thank you! most absurd review ever. i want to know if some nerdy werewolves or nerdy zombies beat him up outside comiccon just before he wrote that piece.

uhm... i'm not sure your response is proportional to anything i've said.

oooh why don't they do a high-fashion-halloween episode of runway? they probably have, haven't they. i swear that shows goes in one eyeball out the other.

if that was your point, yes, i did miss it. perhaps we crossed wires. that's valid. but i doubt you would've said the same to a reply that was about how cute her costume is, even though it's none of the business of the person who thinks that either.

i haven't attacked her. i haven't invaded her privacy. i haven't said anything about grave-dancing. i haven't said she isn't allowed to live her life. she is allowed, i said so from the start. i think she made an insensitive choice in halloween garb. note: please do not make a ridiculous extrapolation that this means…

where have i attacked her? oh, i said her costume was dumb. wow, how horrible of me... what do you care what i think, why do you CARE?!?!?!

actually, i re-read, and you are right. the quote from mr. kercher is not specifically about the costume. if he truly expects knox to never have a good time on the eve of her roommate's murder which also happens to be an american holiday, that's a bit much. i took his upset at the pictures to be specifically related…

it doesn't look like his facial hair to me, dear.

if it was cold maybe the scarf wasn't part of the costume and she was not going as anything soccer-related at all? why do you assume the very best?

why is a soccer player dressed all in black with a knit cap? is that his thing? i googled him, he doesn't even appear to have a comic-villain-y facial hair situation going on at all.

you can't really say what meredith's father would have done if faced with a fairy princess costume. he said the costume was insensitive, not amanda-knox-having-fun was inappropriate. meredith was british, so it's not like the source of his pain is that his daughter will never trick or treat again, because that's not a…

seems like a long leap to assume that of the trillions of costumes available, knox would choose something so easily related to the crime by pure chance or by mistake.
