The poster of this article is either: a) Wealthy to the point that spending over $200 on a sweater that you wear for four months is meaningless.
b) Not pregnant, but just going ‘Omg look at all the beautiful pregnant ladies and clothes!’ There are so many flaws here I can’t even. First, you realise summer is coming right? Even in the UK, a leather jacket is a bit much. Adding sunglasses to the list is insulting—do you think my head is really swelling *that* much? That Free People tunic? Yeah. Not pregnancy approved. I’m sure you’re all like, ‘But omg it’s big and billowy!’ Great. Doesn’t stretch. Ever try to put a shirt on that was once big and billowy on you but isn’t any more? You CANNOT get it on. Stretch is your friend. From someone who is 6 months pregnant and due the end of August, let me tell you real necessities (for a summer pregnancy): A goddamn bra.
Maxi dresses (they work early on and throughout the pregnancy if they’re jersey!)
Jeans (or a band so your old pants fit)
Shirts Done. All that extraneous spending? Have you seen the statistics on how much the first year alone costs? Anywhere from 5k-10k GBP (so that’s even more in USD!). Makes you really think about your choices in buying that ‘cute’ (blech) cape for $300.

I know he’s at West End and not Broadway, but seriously: Ramin Karimloo.

Come now Buzzfeed. They aren’t just a series of ads, they released a pony mixer so you can create your own video: http://www.youtube.com/user/three/theponymixer

There seriously needs to be a ‘Writing an undergrad paper’ v. ‘Writing a dissertation’ comparison. -_-

This. Does BF report about their articles regarding 9/11? Did you notice any other Oscar headlines, like ‘Oscars Fashion Report: Kathryn Bigelow Stuns On Red Carpet Wearing Blood-Soaked Rags Osama Bin Laden Was Killed In’? It seems the author is missing the satiric intent. Yes, she is a child, but at the end of the day, if you’re in the public sphere, you’re up to be the target of both real and satirical attacks. Satire is frequently brutal, but the difference between now and the eighteenth-century (when satire reigned king as a form of communication) is that we get offended and respond for OTHER people. Which, for me, is fascinating really because the current chapter of my dissertation is on when satire ‘misfires’. So, thanks, I guess?

Sontag never wrote a Dialectics of Satire!!! What a great big PHONY!

Hey Buzzfeeders, anyone know if this includes nbcnews as well?

Guys, guys, guys. This isn’t satire.

THANK you.

He had been talking, non-stop, for 12 minutes before he took one, little sip. I take it none of you have presented at, or attended, conferences. Water is routinely given to speakers. You get thirsty. But, oh GOSH, you don’t like his ideology! So instead of attacking things that matter, you find meaningless reasons to mock him. I bet if Obama had done it, BF would be all, ‘Look at Obama drink that water LIKE A BOSS.’ I mean really, I’m a democrat, voted Obama, etc etc, but I really hate media (and everyone’s) hypocrisy.

They’re chibis!

Colby-jack sticks don’t peel. They’re not ‘string’ cheese.

I have found most Brits don’t tip? So am I being a stingy American now?!! And I also think the tipping percentage is way lower here in the UK, isn’t it?

I would say tl;dr, but it was REALLY well-written. I read it all the way through. Good job Greg, nice work :-)

I’m writing my PhD on Swift, so this hits especially close to home! lol

I’m sorry, but for the love of GOD, NO—#5 is NOT a children’s story! And it’s more than visiting the Lilliputs! Poor Jonathan Swift must be rolling in his grave. Why couldn’t they put ‘imagine a book’ like they did for Moby Dick?

I wonder if they only examined natural hair colours, or if they considered women who dyed their hair to the particular colour. I’m a natural blonde and tend to not fit in the stereotypical ‘mould’, which may be due to the amount of women who dye their hair blonde (and thus shape the cultural perception).

Typical Shift mean-girl attitude.

Awww happy anniversary! <3

Hemmingway is probably a poor example if you’re suggesting the story is too long :-P
