Sorry dude, but you flew right past "just an opinion" and ended up at "judgmental, close-minded, and empirically incorrect." You can try to get cute with me and make it like I'm the asshole, picking on little ol' you because we think different things, but no one is buying it. All I did was turn your own condescending phrasing around and made the same sorts of assumption about you that you made about people who enjoy nail art. You're entitled to your opinion, but people are going to call you out if you go around being a jerk about it.
And don't bring Gossip Girl into this. Blair Waldorf would eat you for breakfast.
What is the point of this article?
I don't really understand quantum physics, but I'm not going to write an article about how little sense it makes to me. Sorry that you always chip your nails, but I fail to see how that or this article (on the whole) contributes anything of relevance to conversations about nail art.
Its hard to believe that the CNN report was more tactful and less condescending than this, not to mention actually informative.
Here's an idea lady: maybe take off your judgey pants and realize that you don't have the cultural expertise or authority to dictate what is or is not self expression, or what can or cannot be considered a valid canvas. Sure, it might make you feel superior and smug, but it saddens me that this is considered a valid comment. We're talking about a person who probably suffers from an extreme case of special snowflake syndrome and thinks that fapping to a framed photo of Janet Reno makes her interesting and better-than. So I suppose an internet comment's worth of self-rightous word vomit would be an appropriate expression of the depth of her inner undeserved superiority complex.
Wow. You want to talk about smug attitude?
Clue time to snotty internet commenters: Service employees do the shit that you think you're ass is too fancy to do. You rely on service employees to make your fucking food, to cut your fucking hair, to shine your fucking shoes, to clean your fucking house. Run them off and you'll actually have to do something for yourself. Having more education or a better job doesn't make you more worthy of having thoughts and opinions and it OBVIOUSLY doesn't make you a better person if we're using your lovely comment as launch.
If you don't understand why people go into the service industry and that not everyone can just "get a job" in a cubicle farm at a time when the national unemployment is hovering around 10%, then you need to shut your mouth and not talk about things you don't know.

Oh my god! Someone is complaining about their job! The world is coming to an end! Capitalism is crumbling! It's the end of the world as we know it! There can be nothing worse in this world than a service industry employee complaining about their job.
We're not paying them minimum wage to have opinions or feelings about the way they spend 8 hours of their day!

I guess some people just aren't equipped with the common decency necessary to understand that just because customer service employees make shit wages, they're actually doing something really difficult: putting up with assholes who don't respect them because they work in bookstores. Sound like anyone you know?
Oh my god, that is such a simple solution! Either shut the fuck up and enjoy whatever scraps of decency over-entitled douchebags feel like throwing you OR be unemployed and starve to death!
Everyone has a right to complain about their job, even lowly customer service employees.

But isn't PAX just for gaming?
A lot of Doctor Who episodes, not just RTD ones, are about how shit humans can be. See, The Beast Below, which is was under Moffat as showrunner. If anything, RTDs was way more pro-human than Moffat is now, Ten was always running around talking about how great humans were and how amazing and resilient the human race was. Eleven doesn't seem to think much about us at all. And its good to throw a few wrenches into that lovefest because if you look at the totality of human history, we're right bastards and it would be disgustingly hallmark to ignore that fact. Midnight was a great episode because it was about stress and paranoia in the face of the unknown, two very real, very human emotions that can have disastrous results. You can't seriously be mad at that. Do you only like things where everyone hugs and kisses at the end?
And are you really opposed to tits gore and swearing? Are you eight?

celery is a calorie negative food. it takes more calories to digest than it contains. so although i doubt eight sticks of celery is enough to "balance out" a slice of cheesecake, thats what they're invoking.
The fact that everyone here is trying to guess the babie's sex just proves the whole fucking point of "the social experiment." Why the fuck do we even care? We only want to know because we think it means something, that its going to tell us some infinite truth about the child, or that it can direct the way that we should interact with it. We only want to know so we can enforce all those things we spend so much of our adult lives trying to undo.
You can't tell anything from looking at a baby's facial features. They're all the same baby-faces. Its hard to determine the sex of a human who has yet to develop the markers of sexual maturity. I've met children as old as 10 who weren't strictly gendered (say, long curly hair under a baseball cap) who I couldn't determine whether they were a boy or a girl. And the world still turned. Give it up.

@TF: Yes, because kink is a genetic abnormality.
Even if it were, the (mis)interpretation of Darwinism you're expressing is frighteningly similar to ones that led to the rise of the eugenics movement.
I guess you're pretty bummed that the allies won the war then, yeah?

@briarbite: I AGREE COMPLETELY. +1million.
@deleahrium: Dude, calm your tits. This article isn't waging a war and trying to take away your right to wear spanx. Situating a current trend in women's under garments in its larger sartorial context is hardly a call to arms against foundational garments. Reclaim that girdle all you want, I wear shapewear too, just don't act like you're some fucking revolutionary for doing so.
@Penny_Esq: I love when people who actually know what they're talking about come in an lay down the law. <333
Hey Tina! I know you're reading this. Sup girl?
Maybe we aren't talking about it because its 2011?
What is this even?
