Jeezus - for fucks sake people, buy a good quality leather bag from a time proven company of the right size (you may need 3, S/M/L) in a neutral color, spend 200$-300$ dollars on it and you will use it for at least 15 years.

A Telfar bag can go from a job interview to the club without breaking a sweat.

....they’re so ugly though?

Exactly which masses is a vinyl bag that costs more than my phone, electric bill and internet combined made for?

I eventually sold mine, too, but only because I’d foolishly purchased a “medium” tote, which is nowhere NEAR big enough for all the crap I regularly schlep around. Am seriously considering buying a roll of seat-belt shit in the color of my choice (silver? maybe I can find a deep true ultramarine / yves klein blue?)…

Did I just read an ad disguised as a think piece about a $250 tote bag?

Uh, if you don’t have a giant logo then how will other people know you spent $250 on a Telfar bag??????

While I appreciate the brand/positioning and the multitudinous size and color options, “nope” to a large highly-visible logo of any sort, and a big fat screamy reverberating “NOOO” to a two-hundred-and-fifty-dollar pleather tote. Also nope to flat straps and handles that inevitably stretch and pull and go all wonky.

Read the reviews before you come down here with your punditry about how reviews aren’t real reviews anymore, my dude. The reviewers are pretty clear that Dirt is a bad novel, in large part, because the stereotypes are so bad and so prevalent. You can’t excuse that kind of racism and view the writing apart from it when…

Uhhh; he’s pretty generic looking. Add a beard and nobody would be able to pick him out of a lineup. Maybe not even without a beard;

CNN reports that India’s National Crime Records Bureau reported 32,000 rapes in 2017, a number that is likely much higher given the stigma (and even danger) faced by those who report.

Jennifer Aniston is very good friends with Sandler, so it would not surprise me that he is also friends with Pitt.  

I just can’t bring myself to hate on Adam Sandler. I’ve heard nothing but the best things about him from eevryone who’s met him in person. Seriously, you can spend a day just reading all the stories from people that met him.

Both narratives can peacefully coexist: Adam Sandler is a very untalented, unfunny comedian who should have quit acting for all the reasons this professor thought AND he ended up having a successful career as defined by money.

The Wedding Singer was cute too. I watched it again 10 years ago and remember it being sweet.

Hey, Billy Madison and Happy Gilmore are perfectly cromulent films! I will not, however, defend Little Nicky. Like, what in the hell was that?

So, does this allegation count as rape-rape? Perhaps a spreadsheet would be useful.

I always think of Steve Martin hosting the Oscars one of the years Polanski was nominated yet a-fucking-gain, and pointing out into the crowd. “So many famous faces tonight. There’s Roman Polanski... GET HIM!”

Is everybody else taking an inventory of the faces of people who gave this monster a standing ovation in absentia at the Oscars, and then imagining those same faces as they read this article?

Thank you for reporting on this.
