donna martin loses weight

So I'm home, watching the annual, "Hey, fattie! Lose a few!" episode of Oprah, when a Nutrisystem ad comes on with Tori Spelling. I was confused. If clavicle-wielders like Tori need to drop a few lbs., then maybe we all do.

Today's reason to hate humanity

As someone with notable, ahem, assets, I appreciated Sarah Hepola's piece in Salon about the trials and tribulations of bra shopping for the large-chested. I can empathize with her on many of her points. But this is not what this rant is about. What horrifies me about this article are the letters accompanying the piece. All the men saying, "Waaah, that's like a rich man complaining he's a walking wallet." You know what? Why don't you try hauling around an extra 10-15 pounds in the front and see how you like it? See if you enjoy the comments and stares. Yeah, I know it's a "grass is greener" deal, but it just pisses me off that the commentary seems to be either "shut up and deal" or "get surgery." Neither one of those options is particularly appealing. I just can't believe that it's almost 2008 and people still think it's perfectly OK to act like neanderthals. Ugh.
