    Speechless is such a lovely song, I'm glad she did that in addition to Bad Romance.

    Was anyone else really scared her hair was going to catch fire?

    They editted out the falling in her Louboutins. So I Glambert's faux-BJ is definitely not going to be seen on the west coast, either.

    I laughed out loud several times during JLo's performance but on the west coast feed, they did not show her falling! It showed her jumping off the guy's back and did it all in slow-mo and then cut to her dancing. It was, in my opinion, worse than showing her fall.

    So Mr. Wolf believes that America is his house? And Obama is a snake in his house? Really. So I assume the mice in your basement are really Jews, the bat's in your rafters are really Arabs, and the poor, scared birds in their cages all the women? It's a shame your greedy, racist Fat Cat isn't doing more to keep your house clean of these vermin and keep America pest-free.

    @annebreal: For real. I agree. And you watched Street Fight?? How much do you love Cory Booker? He has done such great things for Newark since he's been in office. He inspires me like no other, and I mean that in the dorkiest way possible.

    @rodmanstreet: I have to admit that I wikipediad him after watching it, because it was a familiar-sounding name to me but I wasn't sure if he'd won in 2006 or not, and the end made me wonder. I loved it!!! It was an unreal movie, I was floored by his fresh, rational thinking as opposed to Sharpe Jackson's general insanity. I was amazed that even though he totally unraveled into a big ball of knee-jerk rage he still won, when usually that's a mark of a losing politician. I'm not surprised that Corey Booker has done so well. I hope he wears longer shorts now, though...I have to admit I noticed that he wore shorty shorts. In the comfort of his own home, yes, but while on camera.

    @annebreal: I go to school in Newark and have completely fallen in love with the city. Watching Street Fight certainly helped as well. Booker is so inspiring and really was part of the inspiration for me to apply to teach in Newark and hopefully live in Newark. Things are changing so rapidly in Newark and I'm looking forward to being a part of some of the good things to come. Go Newark!

    In reply to "Make Your Boobs Jealous!": Reebok's "EasyTone" Ad Campaign Is An Epic Fail
    Oh, how pissed off Reebok would be to see how I actually look in the gym when I'm wearing their shoes. Hair tied back with rubber band and bandana, men's 3x sweatpants, ratty sports bra with loose threads, granny (okay to sweat in) panties and a stained (but clean) old t-shirt. I'm making zero women jealous and zero men randy. But I'm burning off steam and keeping mi corazon ticking...and I think that's dead sexy. That commercial with the faceless ass made me uncomfortable. I was certain it was for Vicky's Secret at first.

    @curiousgeorgiana: Seeing this made me go back and hunt it down - good on you for calling the cops!

    Hopefully he will go away for a very long time - but now that you know about the restraining order, you can tell that to the cops if he ever does come back.

    I also second what was said earlier about bringing her cookies or something - she probably won't be able to take care of herself for a while (broken arm and emotions combined), and while I know from your posts on here that you're the type to do the right thing, I highly recommend bringing casserole or something like that, if you're comfortable cooking. Although cookies never hurt.

    Basically... thanks. For doing the right thing.

    Well, I've fucked it all up again. I've fallen in love, and it's killing me.

    I posted on here two weeks ago about whether I should tell this guy how I felt. Well, I did. The results were... not what I was hoping for.

    I am sure, sure, that I love this man, and that we would be good for each other. I need a miracle, and I don't even believe in miracles.

    What do I do?

    @coconanas: He does not. This despite the fact that HE initiated our very brief physical relationship three months ago.

    I fucked up because I let my emotions get the better of me.

    @sableized (just like starting over): I would look at it like you've told him how you feel and you shouldn't regret that. If you didn't tell him you'd of spent all your time wondering if he feels the same. So you didn't fuck up...

    @sableized (just like starting over): You didn't fuck up! You did something awesome. Owning your emotions is really hard. I think it's especially hard for women. I think that women who tell men that they're into them are awesome feminists. Therefore you are an awesome feminist, and to be perfectly honest I can give no higher compliment than that.

    Emotions cannot get the better of you. To a certain extent your emotions are you. You didn't do anything wrong by falling in love with him. It happens. He didn't do anything wrong by not feeling the same way (dumb, maybe, but not wrong). By telling him and being proactive you saved yourself 10 times this trouble and pain down the road. I know it's weak consolation, but I can't tell you how many people I know who wished they had had this conversation at month three instead of month 12, or year 2, or year 15.

    You have been liberated. If he doesn't feel the same, it isn't his fault that he isn't at the enlightened and mature place you are. It is his loss, though. Now you know what the what is, and you can proceed knowing where you stand instead of questioning. You can find someone who is not only as enjoyable and awesome as this dude, but who is also in the appropriate emotional space-that is, the one you currently occupy--to have a grown up relationship with. I can't express how much I think shit like this is a symptom of extreme emotional maturity and sanity and self-awareness. Almost no one has this. Consider yourself lucky to be you. Your qualities are rare indeed, and very valuable.

    Also eating smuckers hot fudge straight out of the jar can make the immediate pain go away a little. Or maybe that's just me.
