I wanted to take my husband's last name, or at least hyphenate, but it turns out I'm really fucking lazy and I didn't want to take time off of work to visit various gov't agencies.

AAAIIIEEEEEEEE!!!! *happyexcitedhandflapping* LOVE LOVE LOVE British period dramas. Sumptuous costumes? check. Forbidden love and longing gazes? check. A WOC as the protagonist?!?!?! *swoon*

...wait, what? Whats wrong with that?

BOOM! *dropmic*

Well for what it's worth, I got your point. Sometime jezebel displays a certain blind spot when it comes to issues surrounding weight. *shrugs* I've decided to not really push it, after a while the pile on starts to resemble a malfunctioning robot stuck in logical paradox.

Nope, but that's Jezebel for you; pearl clutching, outrage, and butthurt neatly wrapped up and labeled Pop Feminism.

I know we all hate Lana Del Rey, but I've recently (as in the past 1.5 years) become a fan and I've noticed that shes never naked or overtly sexual in her videos/songs. I mean, shes sexy (as is her lyrical content)....but in a sensual, clothed in luxurious satin/velvet kinda way.

Eh I proposed, and I bought my own ring set; cubic z for $40 off of Amazon. Funny enough, everyone thinks it's much more expensive then it is. Overall I just knew what I wanted and I wasn't about to wait around for an overpriced trinket that I probably wouldn't like.

My parents have one of these relationships-30 yeas later they are still happy, in love, and going the distance.

Speaking from experience: my parents have a wonderful loving relationship, and it was only because of their "situation" that my mom was able to come to the USA and get her PhD in Education while my father managed the domestic arena.

uhm....

"These other people who make things up just want to seem as part of an oppressed group, even though they sit at the top of the food chain."

ahh picky eaters, I can only shake my head and laugh at them. Whenever I hear about someone so particular about their food, I can only wonder how they would fare if there was some sort of disaster that disrupted food production/distribution.

"You five white friends all have different dietary needs that are not specific to any health problems. What do you do?"

I have to say, I'm fairly surprised the jez commenters took this entire premise so...literally. Am I the only person who saw this as a very obvious 'blog-to-book' marketing ploy?

I don't know!!!! I just googled cringe.gif, and when that showed up I was like...yup....that perfectly encapsulates how I feel.

Is that him? cause if so...oooohh my.

Well, my late father-in-law suffered from some pretty hardcore schizophrenia, and during a particularly bad episode (more or less a psychotic break) he lopped off his nuts and peen; he subsequently bled to death. The family requested a toxicology report and he was clean; no drugs, not even his prescribed medication…

I fall asleep in my makeup every night. Granted, by the time I'm ready for bed a good 80% of it has rubbed off, so I tend to just wake up with raccoon eyes. That being said, I always wash my face off in the morning with regular ol' bar soap and water. I moisturize with old lady Pond's cold cream + Neutrogena sun…

I'm like you in that I don't feel this pressure. For a while I was confused as well, however I think I've zero'd in on the impetus of my apathy:
