I appreciate this comment.

Thank you. I hate the term "reverse racism." Racism is racism, except when it's a by-product of the system, then it is institutionalized racism.

I had the same thought. I am a white girl who loves the hip-hop culture and who has been known to make youtube videos of myself rapping Wu-Tang. I have respect for the music and I do not drop n-bombs. Is this behavior problematic?

I remember Time, or maybe it was 60 Minutes, did a piece for television about finding the most beautiful woman's face. I think they did it with computer software. Anyway, the most beautiful woman turned out to be hapa, not white. Maybe it's different in Great Britain.

I hate it when shock overcomes me. I've got to learn to be better prepared to deal with assholes.

Exactly. Dude has Muppets street cred.

I was once groped on the El in Philly. I was 18 and was so shocked when I noticed that the guy sitting next to me was touching my thigh. I just looked at him in horror and he ran off the train. I didn't know what to do after, but I was scared and crying and tapped the person sitting in front of me on the shoulder and…

Agreed, I don't think there was anything wrong with what Rosie said. She's a polarizing figure, though, so many will find reason to take offense.

Jason Segal is awesome and I love Michelle Williams. I'm happy two of the most seemingly sane and down-to-earth people in the biz found each other.

Ah, okay, well I remember a controversy about the down to earth girl. Like I said, I never watched it, but I guess I created my own version of the reality show in my head :)

lol, Batali took the troll bait.

I was thinking about Joe Millionaire rather recently. I have no idea why, as I've never watched the show, but my parents saw the last few episodes and were disappointed when dude didn't pick the down-to-earth girl.

Where is this nod?

I was about to comment the same thing, but I guess they write these misleading titles to get us to click!

These are all awesome, keep em comin!

I didn't see any in SF either, but I saw one in Pacifica on Saturday and stared at for a while, wondering if people were still taking that campaign seriously.

A blogger friend of mine was approached by a "kosher sex toy" company to advertise on her site. I guess everyone, even religious folk, are realizing how huge of a gold mine the pleasure industry is.

My cat gets pissy if her Fancy Feast isn't refilled twice a day. She could have all the dry food she could ever want, but if she doesn't have a separate plate of her "Appetizer" she will throw a fit.

My BF downloaded some mouse chasing games for our Sookie to play. She was fascinated for the first three minutes, but like every other thing that she finds entertaining, she was quickly bored and proceeded to bite my ankles.

For real.
