Yes, yes, yes. All you say is 100% true, because the specifics might be different, but I've lived the same torture. I understand and I feel your pain. People call suicide a selfish act. How can trying to escape torture be considered selfish? Fuck you all, y'know? More concerned about how you'll cope with my death than…

They stop doing it to women in their 40s because they're all chasing girls in their 20s. That doesn't qualify as stopping it.

I've gotten the smile treatment. But my fave was the guy I'd known for five minutes who said "You need to walk with your shoulders held up. Makes you look ugly when you hunch down." I hefted my double Ds (which DO tend to hunch one shoulders; you try carrying them around all day) so they were stuck in the world's face…

Hey, that doesn't sound like "the new sincerity" or a refutation of hate and cynicism. I thought your little ponies would have taught you more. Neigh. Neigh, I say.

You're right. I think Talia Shire ought to get an Oscar for that reaction. It was equal parts pissed, woe-is-me, and the pose they put preschoolers in for portraits.

Watch the year where Gwyneth Paltrow wins. Nobody even pretends to be happy about it.

Whoa. Did not know that. Have since read up. Me no likey. Karmaaaa.

Power and control.

I agree, vehemently. These comments are horrendous. Speaks volumes about where the "maturity and tolerance" meter is set in the gaming industry. Not to mention how outnumbered women are, clearly. My only consolation is I know none of these jerks are ever getting dates.

Every hack gets their start being a normal writer. Hackdom doesn't come overnight. It comes after writing a few good features and getting praise and then saying "Aha! Here is the path to fame and glory!" So you repeat the same old techniques, the same ways of getting people to laugh or cry or experience any emotion,…

I dream of a day when every stoner can come out in the open, like a National Weed Night Out, and there would be judges and teachers and doctors and waitresses and moms and grandpas and Quiznos employees. But until we don't have to fear the jackboot of the DEA coming down on our necks, I don't see that happening except…

I just love the idea of being able to go in and look at a weed "menu" and discuss with the pot sommelier the subtleties of Vanilla Kush vs. White Widow, and whether in his considered opinion I'm in need of a body high, or a mind high, or maybe a 50-50. Yeah, I fantasize about this way too much....

A punk is a punk is a punk is Mitch Albom. You mean until the time he made shit up and they printed it and then pretended he didn't deserve being canned because he was a big star? Or before he wrote that godawful book, and then the next one, and then even the next (I stopped counting, putting my hands in front of my…

I'm not going to even read this (I'm more of a Jez than a 'Spin) but if you're picking on Mitch Albom, you made my Thanksgiving! Fricking hack wanker poser jounalismismist.

In fact it's cold as hell, but you're brilliant. Tip of the tinfoil hat.

Given their previous experience of being all excited about something that didn't happen, you'd think the scientists would have STFU'd until they could actually make the announcement. But that wouldn't be good for the PR department, would it? Careful, NASA, your mission (to get gobs of tax money) is showing.

With the exception of Steve Martin and Wiz, I don't know who most of these people are or what the F they are talking about. Am I getting old? Don't answer that.

My 15-year-old son got a text last night that his reserved copy of Black Ops was ready at Game Stop and we had to peel out and drive there like zombies were after us. I can't wait to check this out. Is there a shirtless FBI agent in there, too?

But I thought that was the point she was making, that the vast majority of men really don't like their womenfolk to be porky, so she internalized that message and was stuffing herself to keep them away, and then starving herself to attract them. But honestly, it has been a few days or maybe a week since I read the…

And I'm trying to understand why, after talking on and on about how we women should accept and learn to love ourselves, you feel the need to slip the man in there. What's he doing in there? Isn't this all about us and how we feel about ourselves?
