See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

I'm still steamed over the response I got back from them, like they were trying to make me feel like some sort of humorless dried up feminist. I'm a really funny, well moisturized feminist.

Damn, that's beautiful -- and yet there's so much context behind it that I hesitate to COMM it. I do, however, urge you to cannibalize it and use it in an essay for the next book. It's just too lovely a line not to share with as big an audience as possible.

Also, congratulations, bon bon! (Am I the only one who gets confused by the bonbob portmanteau and has to stop and remind nyself that we're not congratulating a bonobo? Yes, I probably am.) I remember when you were just a leather-clad Michigista plotting her escape, and now you're a high-powered NYC attorney who's about to acquire a philosopher husband! Yay!

Please tell us you're going to register for a root.

And, hat trick, thank you so very much, flea and Cindy and Cash and Aimée and Burrell and everyone else whose name sleep-dep has driven from my brain. I no longer feel so crazy, so inept and possibly lethal, or so alone. Thank you so, so much. You are goddesses. And apologies to the non-babied for the thread hijack yesterday.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

ita, have you been following this Joe Rogan v. Carlos Mencia kerfuffle?

I just saw it today on Andrew Sullivan's blog.

What a mess.

Oh my god, I'm not explaining my laughter to the two confused looking guys in the office.

You really must.

Does your husband hate us for the pile-on?

What is even happening?

Where was this discussion. I don't mean Allyson's original discussion of it, but I know someone (sarameg, maybe) linked to another forum within the past couple of days, and it was being discussed there, but I can't find the link in Natter.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

That is HYSTERICAL. I will totally register for a root, though admittedly, we're planning a long engagement. I don't want to pay for a wedding right now and we might have a little LDR while he's doing a post-doc...or writing for a cartoon show in L.A.
