Yep. Bad choice of words, for sure. She seems like a smart woman, and I think she was trying to do the right thing, but you're right—calling natural creases a "flaw" just reinforces an utterly ridiculous, unattainable, and inhumane standard of beauty.

Yep. They were already on ONTD last night. How do kids ("kids these days," ugh, who am I) have time for that obsessive chronicling?

I don't think "flawless" does mean "thin" here. I figured Bellesario was talking about stuff like how they photoshopped away all the normal lines that humans have when they bend in certain ways. Lines, wrinkles, those things.

It's comforting to know that other PLL fans are half-assed about paying attention. I'm always reading while it's on. My boyfriend once asked me, "Do you just absorb this show through osmosis or something?"

He ends with, "I truly apologize to anybody that I may have offended."

Hypersexualization and self-objectification don't necessarily indicate past abuse to me.

Ok, we get it, you are all friends still.

Her image and career do not scream "daddy issues." She's quoted in this very post saying that she had loving parents and the abuse was from a (female) babysitter, a friend's older brother, and her high school boyfriend and his friends.

I feel like this is that guy who hacked into the nanny cam and shouted, "WAKE UP, BABY!"

It's also super gross how abusive some of these people are toward you just for saying that you don't consider Louis CK a comic genius. YIKES. Now you know better than to express an opinion!

You guys. You are like CNN with the Malaysian plane on this story.

I agree. I'm a fan of his current show and of Lucky Louie, but I don't think his standup is that great. I've seen a few of his specials and I saw him live a year and a half ago, and I'm always surprised at how much of his material sounds like it would have been "fresh" and "edgy," like, 20 years ago. I would venture…

"Wallow in gay news"? I understand the point you're trying to make, and to some extent I agree, but using those words and that phrase is so aggressive and divisive. It sounds homophobic.

Opinions on proper airport attire are so interesting to me. I've heard so many members of my parents' generation talk about how when you used to go to the airport you dressed up, damn it! But comfort while traveling is a really good point (as I learned the hard way, on a business trip to Denver). I never know what to…

Along the same lines, why is that hairstyle a thing? To me it looks like when you've been swimming and you just resurface from underwater and your hair is all slicked back and weird.

Unsolicited advice: You might want to stop after season 4. The rest was, for the most part, so bad that I can't even bring myself to watch reruns of early episodes anymore. I am quite sad about it.

It's Texas-related because Austin is in Travis County.

Age of consent is 17 in Texas. ETA: Whoops, sorry! Didn't refresh before I replied.

Jesus, we get it. People hate Kim Kardashian. Do the questionable ethics of vilifying this woman over and over ever mar your noble pursuit of page clicks?

Oh man, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to imply that hatred of Kim Kardashian is analogous to racism. Obviously, being hated for the color of your skin is worse than being hated for making sex tape. I quoted what I'm assuming was intentional hyperbole and commented on it in a similarly hyperbolic manner.
