WOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! We’ve had MN United posters swagging our entire office! It helps that our entire managerial staff is LGBT (L and G, anyway – I’m the sole B, and no Ts have applied yet), and the CEO laughs that he nearly bankrolled the entire thing, with all the meetings and fundraisers he held with Project515 [...]

I personally would chalk it up to “wait, what?” on Bravo’s part. Confession: I had no idea that was even a slur; I’ve never heard it before, and – like 80% of racial slurs I’ve come across outside the n-word – I don’t even get it. Until last year (and my god, I just turned 36), [...]

As sad as I am to say it, part of me wonders how soon after Danica wins will NASCAR start losing followers – “a girl won, so clearly it sux now.” I’ve noticed a lot of that take-my-ball-and-go-home mentality when the ladies show themselves just as capable as the gents, and not just athletics – [...]

I think what creeps people out is this.. “Dolls” are one thing. I have many friends who collect and make clothes for ball-joint dolls. They creep me out, I won’t lie (the dolls, not the friends), but they’re clearly unreal and toylike… with their dead eyes staring in smooth, shiny faces… sorry, slight pediophobia, moving on..

The Big Event™ itself was fairly uneventful, but the very next day was the life-changing event. Someone at work told an off-color joke, and I didn’t blush . I was so shocked that I called my mom, glossed right over the “oh yeah, btw, not a virgin” bit and went right into “OMG does losing your virginity [...]

I can’t imagine it would pass in any event, due to HIPAA*. Ah, political theater at its dumbest. So.. how about those jobs, legislators? *I can’t even make a dental appointment for my boss because of HIPAA. An appointment. All I am doing is selecting a day and time, not asking for any sensitive info (even though [...]

Eddie Murphy did such an amazing whiteface Old Jewish Guy™ in Coming to America that I didn’t even know it was him until the end credits rolled. Based on the image above, that’s an equally amazing makeup and prosthetics job for Billy; this is why it’s hard for me to see the offense on first [...]

I am curious as to why this is considered blackface. The reason I ask is because when I think blackface, I think those horrible, grimacing caricatures from the 50s and earlier. When I think of Billy Crystal doing a Sammy Davis Jr. impression, I think “Billy Crystal doing a Sammy Davis Jr. impression” – i.e. [...]
