My favorite thing in science articles is the immediate rush of people angry over the use of words like MAGIC or WILD or NEW or ANYTHING THAT WOULD MAKE A CASUAL OBSERVER SLIGHTLY MORE INTERESTED IN READING THE ARTICLE AND THUS POSSIBLY BROADENING THEIR APPRECIATION OF/INTEREST IN SCIENCE.

Body shaming is a thing on every point of the size spectrum, and yes, you are body shaming with this comment. Way to be!

exactly. policy is policy. every company has dumb ones, but if you want the perks of flying business class for free...suck it up and put on compliant clothes. don’t like it? buy a full price ticket and dress however the fuck you want.

Cargo shorts are allowed as per UA pass travel rules. Pants that are “form fitting/lycra/spandex leggings” are explicitly prohibited. I’m a UA pass rider (and a woman) and I’ve flown non-rev in shorts before. Athletic shorts are a no-no, but khakis or bermuda shorts are a-OK.

Exactly. If we want to have a reasonable discussion about dress codes, the way they are constructed and applied, and the social constructions of dress, I am 100% on board for that. But this is basically a bunch of people shouting about something that is literally written out every time you get a ticket as an employee:

It has been reported that the passenger was flying on a pass, and was therefore required to adhere to a more formal dress code.

Exactly. “Transmission of scorn” is not shade at all. It’s just scorn.

Yeah it’s so tough on the “youtube daily grind”, thank god they have millions. LMAO, GTFO

But that’s just it! If you’re on the receiving end of either of those, you’re like, “Oh, she hates me.” Shade should always leave a person asking their self, (preferably the next day,) “Wait. Did she...?”

You used “SJW” then whined about singular labels. Irony is always lost on alt-right reddit bros

Easy there, Black Swan. The entire world of dance and theater do not revolve around ballet.

And see, I would say unintended tactlessness is not shade. It’s just tactlessness. But I have disagreed with Kara’s rulings on “unintentional shade” before.

Musing how the role in Get Out might have been played differently by someone with a personal experience with American culture is not a diss.

That’s my impression of it. They are so creative with some of the comedy that it’s very sad to see them go for those jokes. I give them the benefit of the doubt, but like you said, they live in their bubble of mainly white friends in L.A. of all places where they have a very mixed community. So basically you have to…

Seems too direct. Decent insult, but I’m going with not shade.

Arin has said some very racist and xenophobic things about Mexicans, but I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt. If the whole “it’s for the show” angle, I’m going to refer back to Jon see how that turned out.

He has 3 million subscribers. He is not just “someone on the internet”. Internet viewership exceeds tv viewership now-a-days. His words and actions have real, tangible impact.

Hey, I’m Grump!

At least 5 so far discovered ...average is less than 100million years between them.

She’s not stanning. She’s making a ruling on shade. No other evidence is admissible in the court of shade.
