P-C,

sounds like the new person has no social skills. brace yourself. more shit will come out.

To steal from Allyson: "Has she no social skills at all? Was she raised in a crate like veal?"

[on edit] x-post.

It just pings me in that place where I'm horrifically sensitive to body comments.

No, I get where you're coming from. I should go re-read what I wrote, because I guarantee I wasn't trying to be mean or unduly bitchy, and clearly it came off that way to several people.

Which is not my way of saying, "But, you misunderstood me!" It's my way of saying that I regret posting something that came off as cringe-worthy to more than one person. It is worth it to me to engage a filter or two so as not to set people off.

As for saying mean things about slender women -- I tended more towards saying, "Damn, I wish I looked like that." So.

Having just finished reading another batch of the yo is this racist tumblr, I suggest you cuss at her.

What's your opinion on Milla Jovovich and Kate Beckinsale as action heroines?

Me, I don't think Kate is particularly close-up tough. As long as she sticks to guns, she's perfectly fine with me. She moves okay.

Milla moves really well. Not fighter well, but dancer/gymnast well, which is just fine. She also looks like she could take a punch to the head or the stomach better than a Jolie or an SMG, for instance, but it's not something I can quantify. Looking bugfuck crazy never hurts, but she needs to look like she can take punishment as well as dole it out to make me feel comfortable.

God, that makes me angry. And not the tumblr owner. The questions he gets, and the criticisms. Jesus, people. Can you not hear yourselves.

So I owned up some shit to my sister in reply to her pretty random "you rock" email, and I hope she's sufficiently emotionally affected she doesn't clothesline me with feelings like that during the workday again. If I had been in the office, that would have been horrifically embarrassing.

Timelies all!

Didn't watch the Oscars last night, since I haven't seen any of the nominated films.(Well, I've seen The Muppets and Puss In Boots)

FWIW, I wasn't referring to you personally with my agreement of Allyson's comment, I've just seen that criticism all over (FB, Twitter, etc.) and I am pretty weary of it. I actually do not even remember being pinged by anything said here, though I guess it's possible I just skimmed over it.

Ha! I made her cry. I am the best big sister EVER. (I totally don't remember buying her a Discman, though. But I will still take the credit for it)

Good to know, thanks, Nora.

Have to go to a meeting. Do not want. Too bad for me.
