It sounds to me more likely that Meryl backed out because she didn’t like the gown and Karl Lagerfield, grand delusional, is either lying to be petty or made up a story he believes about why someone wouldn’t want to wear his gowns.

Yeah I think alot of the dialog Crispin is referencing here and which is discussed on Jezebel all the time is the kind of dialog I have with my friends here in the city and hear at the book store events and lectures and seminars.

Haha quite.

Aside from young children, I’m pretty sure it’s older women who like to dress them up in various period appropriate clothing-perhaps even right down to the bloomers?

I think it’s really weird. On one level it’s almost weird that these dolls even have underwear.

I think it might be cultural yeah. In my family we all kiss the children on the lips. And everyone kisses Grandma/Granpa. Hug and kiss goodnight/goodbye kind of thing. I mean we’re not making out, just a quick peck.

Ok, but does anyone know where that restaurant from the screengrab is? Because that looks like heaven. That low lighting. Those books. That reading lamp!

I’ve read that there are really no such things as micro or teacup pigs. At best there is an uncommon breed that tops out at 150 or so (which is still a massive animal, especially if you think it’s only going to be the size of a largest dog). At worst it’s a sickly or underfed animal being pawned off on the…

No. There’s even talk petitions will be taken down from ththe White House website. It’s a policy President Obama started to create a petition page and respond/make a decision when signatures reach a certain amount.

Bette and Joan were also big time alcoholics who led hard lives. A life like that shows.

I’ve been out of the US [edited because I should be more vague on teh interwebs] for a month. Recently got together with old friends scattered around U.K. and also France. Dude, this is a world wide phenomenon. Something is happening, something is going on. And it is not good. To a person they said that they see what…

That’s actually I think what makes a person more likely to be hypnotized or not-concentration. It’s like meditating but guided, right?

I’ve heard the opposite about susceptibility. I heard that supposedly a person has to be able to concentrate deeply for them to be able to enter a hypnotic state, self or prompted.

After his election though, I wonder what’s the use. Trump supporters aren’t watching C-SPAN and forming their own conclusions.

I think the sort of inexperienced interviewer is their *thing*. Because it’s supposed to, I think, make us feel like they are asking the questions we would ask. Sure an entertaining piece about the Jersey Shore of the U.K. done by VICE is entertaining, I’ve watched my fair share of their programming.

Grizzly bears. Wolves. And don’t forget th trolls. Always the trolls.

That’s what they did. They claim that people stopped going because of it. I think it’s because the last time I went to ringling the most exciting part was the girl who could hula hoop a hundred hoops.

Ooof! Well maybe by the miracle of bodies being magically weird and changing maybe someday you can. And maybe mine will stop cooperating! Who knows, it’s a painful game of craps!

Yikes! That’s even more stalkery! I think the car outside your house and the FB messages, if not completely satisfying a restraining order, at least enough to get a cop to go over to his to investigate the issue and by asking a question or two make it clear you don’t want to hear from him anymore.

I haven’t seen either but I was at a dinner party where people were just describing Moonlighy in rapturous tones. They said it’s a beautiful movie. I said it seemed really heavy and they said yes it was, but somehow also...light.
