I missed the VMA's this year, but hey, congrats to all the glitter shitting dirt squirrels who took home astronauts for giving lobotomies to abortions. Ain't it great we live in a world where those little fucking statues have outlasted NASA's actual space shuttle program?

The article itself is okay, but the best part is the reader comments: half of them are from college-aged feminists disrespecting second-wave feminists (forgetting that “If I have seen further it is only by standing on the shoulders of giants”), a quarter of them from second-wave feminists, and the last quarter from people who think that all feminists are hairy, bra-burning butch lesbians.

A lower socio-economic strata? Please. For three years now, every single one of those spoiled douchenozzles has been a millionaire many times over. Still, none of them sought to broaden their experiences beyond the shores of Jersey.
This isn't about classism. It's about class, and they have none. They're tacky in any tax bracket, and that's the point.
Three years in a higher tax bracket doesn’t automatically undo the preceding twenty-plus years of learned behavior appropriate for the former tax bracket. It’s like assuming a sixteen year old will be able to drive a car like an adult the first time she’s behind the wheel.
