I feel like white people get more pissed about this type of thing than actually minorities do.

I know the history of the Romani people. I've read up on them. People have had themed birthday parties forever. I don't get why they are considered so offensive now. We are way to PC. I get not wanting to glorify negative things, but dressing up and having a themed cake isn't offensive. She didn't say anything bad…

I think there are more important things to get upset over than a 21 year-old celebrity throwing a party with a very unclear, muddled, cultural mumbo jumbo theme. Honestly.

I would have loved to have a home-ec class in high school, just to teach me how to be an adult and be responsible without all the trial and error I went through. And I really, really wish I knew how to sew.

MAC Fix+ spray is pretty good.

Last year, when I taught English I had my students create a "How To" brochure for something they are good at. The idea that the brochure had to teach another student how to do that skill. So they buddied up and attempted each other's "How To" brochures. Well a guy ended up doing a makeup tutorial on himself, while…

Just want to point out that the "Boyfriend does my makeup" tag is nothing new. Many, many YouTubers have made videos of this, so take a look at some of those too for the lolz.

But can't the same be said for any of other subject? And no one told me I was bad at sports. Just that I couldn't serve a badmitton properly (true). I don't have any complaints about the way our school did gym - you learned how to actually play a bunch of sports, had to know the actual rules etc. in 9th and 10th…

Katy Perry's shoes are a crime.

That's a pretty big "might," considering he's had four childless marriages despite apparently having no idea how birth control works.

That fatwad needs a fatwa.

As if he gives a damn about the power of Muslim women.

Exactly.

Word. Or rather, mot.

Yay! I'm a foreign language teacher, and language does such good things for your brain, even if you never get fluent. (We start kids way too late in most programs, but that is for another conversation.)

God forbid you have to do something that's hard. Something that you don't like to do.

I'm pretty ok with an over the top wedding dress. If not then, when?

I love that the thing the original poster complained about was one of the most practical skills she can learn in school. I totally agree with you, but learning to sew isn't even supposed to be a character-building/learn-to-think thing. It's so you can sew your pants someday. Maybe the teacher was difficult, and it…

Fashion tip: Make yourself look slimmer by using over-sized office supplies, eating utensils, etc.

I've got to agree with you there. I'm not a big wedding dress person, but I don't see how Kelly Clarkson's dress is any more "over the top" than most wedding dresses. I mean, by its very definition a wedding dress is markedly different from what the bride wears to most other fancy occasions. And after all, how many…
