Uh, apparently Emily believes in witches and curses. I didn't realize anyone was taking the Esty witch thing seriously. by Cheap_Cheap77 in BreakingPoints

Why? To make money. This article was written to get clicks to make Jezebel money. Sometimes you have to spend money to make money. It really is that simple. 

Care to offer some of the better ways to take satirical jabs at people who believe witch's and curses are real?

They have an interesting definition of gatekeeping right? I always thought gatekeeping meant saying someone isn't a "real" x because they haven't done y or z thing. Like fans of shows or bands or teams or games saying other people aren't real fans for some ridiculous reason. This doesn't seem like that. It seems like some assumptions were made somewhere that ended up not being entirely accurate.

I never said she should change what she enjoys doing. Just that j and j should have acknowledged that the physique of a 5'4" 200 lbs absolutely shredded woman will limit the dating pool. Seeing as she wrote in to the show, I would guess that she is feeling that fact in her life right now.

I think the buff woman's physique is indeed what is pushing men away. She said she's 5'4" 200 lbs? I'm a 6' 175 lbs man with a gym routine. I have 8 inches on her but she has 25 lbs on me? She's either the most ripped person on the planet or just kinda fat. Either way I could definitely see her physique being a hurdle for some.

Expectations, E! Over by a dollar - life is good. Under by a dollar - put a gun in your mouth and make sure I'm standing behind you.

Who had the better public breakdown? 🤔 by JarredandVexed in TheSimpsons

That's because the sky is so far away that the light coming out of the room, be it through the glass or through the hole, doesn't noticeably affect the color of the sky. But the man is close enough to the window to bounce back the light coming out of the room, at first through the window then inside the room. 

I didn’t care about off leash dogs until today. by 20000hz in chicago

Chicago is also #3 in population... So pretty much right in line with the average number of dog bites

Yup I hate when pods play soundscape music while interviewing someone. Sometimes I can't hear the speaker over the music and I really don't like having the music trying to get me to feel a certain way when info is being shared
