    Ah, I didn't realize this piece was by Christopher Noxon in the earlier post today. I have one of his books on my shelf (a freebie from my former employer) called Rejuvenile. It's about how he and his friends are over thirty, yet they still act, speak, and dress like teenagers, and what could be behind this sweeping societal trend that he has totally noticed among his social circle of immature guys? This OMG BEWBS story surprises me less now, coming as it does from a self-professed overgrown 13-year-old.

    "Sadly not included in December Vogue is the much-needed pull-out greeting card: 'Merry Christmas! I'm concerned about your glands!' "

    Tsk. A shame. And so perfectly passive-aggressive, too.

    The wooden iPod dock by Vers is genius Anna! What if my ipod got stranded on a deserted island, as a result of a plan crash flying out of Sydney on its way to LAX, and found itself LOST?!? This way it would have a ready made raft.

    Perhaps it's because there is a grassy landscape background, but I keep reading the coverline as "130 Indigenous Holiday Ideas" and I'm thinking, what could that mean? Shrubs?

    Embarrassing tidbit about my growing up Irish Catholic outside Boston:

    I had NO IDEA Jewish people still existed until I was about eight. I thought they had all died off with Jesus.

    That's a Catholic-school elementary school education for you.

    @NewsBunny: That's incredible. My mom was also a Catholic school casualty until she was fifteen--whereupon she was laughed out of public school for thinking that tampons resulted in a loss of virginity. Fun fact--she actually persisted in believing this until I explained to her why she was wrong. Otherwise she's a very intelligent woman, but the whole sexual repression definitely stuck with her for a long time.

    "Red-blooded American goys have found their new fetish: the smoking-hot Jewess"

    I cannot believe that was allowed to be printed. Every word except "have" and "the" is offensive in the context of every other word.

    * Oh, wow, did Details say "cunts"? We meant "women". It's an understandable oversight, though, what with the cunt being the orifice that makes women worth dealing with at all. Am I right or am I right?

    Am I the only one offended in many ways about the tattoo (or "tattoo," as it's more likely drawn on)?
    1. That a Jewish girl would have a tattoo (granted, not totally unheard of, but fairly unusual given the religious prohibition on voluntary tattooing) and
    2. That a Star of David is beying portayed as a tramp stamp? (I don't think all tattoos on the lower back should be categorized as such, but the objectification evident in this picture is sort of pushing for that interpretation.)

    @pileofmonkeys: I wondered about the tattoo. I remember a girl in high school who was Jewish had gotten a lower back tattoo, and a lot of people gossiped about it because they said it wasn't looked upon well in the religion. I'm not Jewish, so I didn't want to say anything about the picture above, but it struck me as odd, too. I wonder if Details knew that the tattoo would be taboo, or if they were simply ignorant. Neither would surprise me.

    @pileofmonkeys: Here's why it really bothers me: a non-Jewish writer fetishizing and then labeling a Jewish woman (or man, or child) by using a Star of David. Just brings up a few negative associations.

    @prismatism: Either way I'll take it.

    Also: here's my personal highlight of this year's Thanksgiving from a boy raised without religion married to an atheist Jew with a very religious father. Doing a jigsaw puzzle. After some contemplation the father in law decides putting puzzle pieces together violates Shabbat. But this doesn't stop him from standing over my shoulder, pointing at pieces and yelling "TRY THAT ONE OVER HERE WITH THIS ONE... NO, THE OTHER WAY, TURN IT AROUND!!! NO PUT THE RED SIDE TO THE LEFT! IT'S PART OF THE FLOWER, SEE!?? OH WAIT... IT'S NOT... HMMM WELL WHAT ABOUT THAT PIECE OVER THERE?!?!?!?"
