Because real issues are affecting real people and that jackass is acting like something that touches peoples lives in a very real way is entertainment?
Look, you got a little stabbed the other day. That's bound to make anyone a mite ornery.

Well, college graduates are elitists, so we don't matter.
Yeah, and I'm an elitist who went to a caucus instead of voting in a primary, so I'm double-plus insignificant.

To be fair, Obama's cuter than John Kerry. And tabloids thrive on "she's cracking up!" covers, so having a female candidate is like candy to them.

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
Thanks, msbelle. I'm just so offended on a personal level.
I lived there for 7 years! And the thing is? They didn't clean my apartment. They painted (as they had to do), and put in hardwood floors and new tile, as they do in between each tenant that lived there before they purchased the building. They also put in a new toilet, which they had to do since mine was like from 1962 and required constant maintenance.
My deposit was $600, Kat.

Okay, but THIS from the article does crack me up:
And the gossip-magazine editors appear to hold the cards most of the time.When President Bill Clinton submitted an essay for publication in US, it did not pass muster with Ms. Min.
“It was the magazine equivalent of watching C-Span,” she recalled, a slight shudder in her voice. “I was a little mortified to do it, but we kicked it back to the president for a revise.”

Allyson, are you going to fight to get the deposit back? Because is that equivalent to the amount that they didn't pay for utilities that your lease says they were supposed to pay?

I've done some of the math, and they'd be paying me a lot more if I went after them for the utilities.

Are you planning on doing that?

Allyson, that is so obnoxious. I would totally go after what they owed me. Of course, I get pissed when someone takes too long in the bathroom, so what do I know.
