Beg to differ

one man’s binder clip is another man’s comforter clip.

Watching them dance like that made my boobs sympathy ache.

It can go either way — some people are willing to knowingly hit on children, others just assume that a hot piece of ass is a hot piece of ass and don’t think about whether they’re still kids. I do think people make split second assumptions based on bodies — if someone is tall or has boobs you automatically age them…

Presumably those men didn’t know you were 12, they just pegged your age wrong. Badu is talking about male adults working in a school setting knowing that these are children — and their charges.

I wonder if that’s a reason to not legalize it. I’m neither a lawyer nor a politician so I don’t know the answer but I’d be curious how many things stay illegal (or legal) just because working out the consequences of things like contract law seem like too much of a pain in the ass.

I get mine directly from the Hogwarts elves but for the muggle folk — the Company Store duvet covers have built in little ties to anchor the comforter.

Comforter clips!

Yeah there are a billion levels to why it would be hard to manage that kind of relationship with government systems (and the abuse possibilities and sexism and religious fanaticism etc etc). But if the actual illegality is based on traditional interpretation — that’s seems a piss poor reason to keep it that way.

Oh definitely. It seems creepy AF to me but I also try to be aware of my own hangups dictating others’ lifestyles and I feel like feelings against polygamy reeks of the same argument people used to make against gay marriage — it’s immoral and marriage should be between 1 man and 1 woman.

Can someone explain why polygamy illegal? If it’s based on a violation of the traditional rules of marriage, shouldn’t they just try piggy backing on the legalization of gay marriage? I feel like it gets dicey when it comes to things like spousal benefits and tax deductions, but other than that I don’t really get what…

It’s entirely possible that you are cursed, but I would try the clips. They will improve your duvet life dramatically I swear it. If not, you can come back here and yell at me.

For a king sized duvet I imagine the shaking out bit is a two man job. Team work helps build relationships anyway. Consider it a project.

It’s just like putting on a pillow case! Turn duvet cover inside out, grab the corners of the comforter. Pull through and shake aggressively!

I am a woman and stand firmly against you on this one: top sheets are the devil. They are unnecessary and a waste of money and as a restless sleeper I get trapped in them. They also require extra bed making effort — it takes 60 seconds to put on a new duvet cover after laundering but making your bed with a top sheet…

There’s a special place in hell for women who are complete assholes.

For sure — it is named for them, after all. But yeah the gender ratio is even more pronounced in that genre and it is so rare to have an undeniably kick ass female character on TV that it really stings when they’re just summarily killed off.

I know, that’s why I said the last thing *we* heard her say. Apparently we won't find out what she said to Ollie until season 5.

He wasn’t necessarily, that’s why I responded at all. But a commenter coming on a Jezebel article about women who just flat out says “what about the men” is 9 times out of ten (hell, 999 times out of 1000) being a dickish troll trying to get a rise out of crazy, easily angered women. Odds are he was just being…

People should definitely stop bringing trolls out of the grays. But I do happen to think that the different impacts of the death of male versus female characters in popular culture is an interesting topic, particularly violent deaths as was the case with most of the above. So once the comment is in play...
