how is being HILARIOUS sexist?

Seems like the GOP w00tleaders need a quick workshop, and review SEXISM.

"wtf is this?" you ask?

This is a photo of pubic lice housed in eyelashes! Source

I received the best advice of my life in first grade:

Never share a hat or comb,
for lice will make your head their home.

However, I didn't get the addenda: don't share genitalia either! You'll get crabs in your eye!


Amen.
fuckin' nasty, yo.

repulsed by this

ew.

It's awkward taking photos in public restrooms.

As I washed my hands, I was mesmerized by the amount of toe hanging out of this woman's shoe as she used the stall next to the sinks. I"d size it down, but it might lose the effect I'm tryiing to convey.

Man.

McCain: Where It's NOT At.

These are the breaks. Don't make him our next president, please.

le sigh!

the pose strikes again!
am i the only dumbass who thinks this looks terribly unnatural and forced?



whatevs! just another to add to my collection!

upon watching the the tracey fragments, i realized that that it's not ellen page i dislike. my issue lies more with diablo cody (aka brook busey.) i really disagree with the whole "y'all hatin' cuz y'all JEALOUS!" defense taken by the ladies at jezebel. as for cody, i think it's fantastic to step away from the essentialism surrounding women. she was a sex worker, she has tattoos. fantastic. live your life. i believe that all women should claim their identity as they see fit, but there is something very backwards and reductionist in saying that the tattoos and all the sexcapades imagined in haters minds are the only reasons why one can hate on this woman. the women on jezebel are again perpetuating a fucked up politic where cody is reduced to her stripper past, her tattoos, and hipster haircut. there is a sense of unchecked elitism in the air, as exemplified by the reaction to following clip (found on the jezebel site):

Oh NO she did NOT pull that "I'm from the Midwest, so my story is more original than those coastal people" bullshit.

And Oprah needs new writers. Quickly.

=========

i agree with the sentiments above. there is some white privilege going on up in there. i dislike cody because she was pulling some wack privilege shit on oprah. i like cody because she created a story that resonated with millions of viewers. i like cody because teen pregnancy was interpreted under a fairer, more comprehensive gender lens (of course, compared to what's been mainstreamed and is already out there.) i dislike cody because she is obnoxious as an interviewee. i dislike Juno because it is reliant on a bunch of self-glorifying, masturbatory, snarky one liners (which cody said was based mostly on herself) --- as an artist the directive to unearth something larger than you is the goal. i dislike Juno and diablo cody, because i'm unsure of how this work, as something seen as revolutionary in addressing class and gender issues, how does it continue to marginalize? how is can we challenge this movie so that it is relevant to my community, those of color and beyond. i dislike cody because in the nature of Juno as a film, i am unsure where it addressed the interlocking nature of oppressions affecting women. All women.

my bottom line is this:
to promote a strange radical feminist perspective without context (do your homework on what this means, first. don't be taken just because it has the world "radical" in it) is pretty dangerous. to romanticize sex work without contextualizing it in a macro sphere is problematic, to the point where it stunts the development of a healthy gender politic. ultimately resulting in some asinine logic, ie "stop hatin' just cuz she cute and used to be a stripper, y'all!"

and to be clear, i am aware that the hating on her face is quite possible. all i am saying is: there are other reasons to dislike diablo cody.


in the picture above, she is also doing that pose-thing i hate!

backwards ass stupids.

As a smart person who has also developed spatial logic and reasoning skills, who can also adequately articulate ideas, abstract concepts, and immediate emotions, I hate teh stupids!!!!!!!! Especially the frantically stupids! (THEY ARE THE WORST KIND!)

I am thinking of a particular stupid who doesn't know how to debate without wanting to cry at the end, who actually agrees with you, but just wants to argue anyway, who is subjective as hell, and plain condescending while taking shit personally. ALL THE DAMN TIME. Those who fit this category tend to think he or she is a hopscotching gem of brilliance, but alas, negatory! I understand that in a show of dominance, people will just always want to muscle and flex on smarty. It's that "American" thing. This is why the world hates me by default. Thanks, stupids! <3

These folks usually "out" themselves with some ignorant ass comment pillowed by the words "i personally feel..." and has internalized that it is his or her "patriotic duty/moral obligation" to convert you into buying the fucking uniform softball warm ups for his or her "House of WTF." By the end of some 15 minute circular proselytizing monologue about some mundane (race, gender, class) theory shit that is so basic101 (that you don't even think about that shit anymore, you already have stances and defaults) this dumbass is three feet from your face, telling you about your life and how you don't know shit about X, Y, Z, when you live X, Y, Z and s/he is all in a hufflepuff wondering why you're conserving energy for the chewing that will accompany the consumption of a bag Cheetos instead of engaging him/her. When they realize that, that's when they'll be at their SALTIEST with you.

Pfft!
A note to all the future es-stupids I will come across: don't impose your ignorance on me, you crazy person!

(I guess this is actually numerous dislikes. But that's fine.)

Catherine. Back me up here.

excuse you.

when people are so certain of your character traits.

(ie. "Well, I know you, you thrive on stress.")

did you know i was thinking that you should stfu?

stupids.

are these your friends?

here it is, AGAIN!

HIDEOUS!


my OG post.
i will start collecting these as i come across them...

ho hum.

no thanks:
auto-subscriptions to the taste and stylistics of teh stupids on my email list, thanks to my google reader.

i liked it better when the dum-dums were shrouded in mystery, so that i could maintain just the tiniest bit of hope. but no. no hope there: all ugly clothing, bad music in williamsburg, and questionable preferences in art and design.

ps: and some of them just subscribe to their own blogs, so it's like the show of ego, as opposed to the sharing of knowledge. man, get your ass out of my "unread items" list, fool.

biters!

No, not this kind. Based on these definitions, I would say that the most fitting one would be:

To imitate; to attempt to resemble, as in manners or course of life.

In collectivizing it with others, I've found that it's pretty common. It's petty, sure, but it's annoying as hell. It's just irritating that they suck up your characteristics, whether or not they know better, I absolutely hate it. It just puts you in an awkward position once you notice it, and it just makes the entire situation a caricature of what can become a crazy situation. (I mean, haven't y'all watched SWF?!) It seems petty, but I would like to think that one's individuality is a highly guarded concept--- as it's you.

Examples:

My daily routine

Plagiarism

Joke stealing

Humping what I read in the hopes of getting closer to me

copying my gestures and certain phrases

And I don't care, I'll resign to it: I'm petty. With that, you're annoying. I win. It basically creates an unnecessary situation, where insecurities shine, and it's just announced to the world how incapable one is of maneuvering through social situations. oh. and did i mention, it's ANNOYING? ugh. FUCK.
