Because some people think tai chi is illegal?

They thought it was some sort of asian witchcraft.

I’m more surprised that anyone thought it looked remotely threatening.

It is asian witchcraft. _It is_.

Doesn’t matter what your “way” or attitude is, the definition of a slut is somebody who sleeps around a lot.

At the beginning he may have been, but as the show has progressed he started showing restraint, and that’s why I don’t think he’s one. Not because of some silly and stupid double standard.

No, it’s a woman who sleeps around a lot. The double standard is not stupid or silly unless you think men and women are the same. They clearly are not.

(I think the standard of women being sluts is way overblown, but that has absolutely nothing to do with the fact that the concept of slut has nothing to do with men. Much like how cowardice has nothing to do with women.)

Regarding my earlier note of Professor Duncan’s comment on Michelle looking very _Fatal Attraction_. It turns out that Lauren Stamile actually says the following on _Grey’s Anatomy_ (season 5 opener, part 2) “And now I’m the crazy girl out of _Fatal Attraction_ who goes around stabbing surgeons.” Weird.

How can Jeff not pick Britta? After all:

1. When she wears underwear, it’s “Hello Kitty” brand.
2. When she doesn’t, it’s because she hasn’t done laundry in 3 weeks.

That’s a win-win.

Michelle, on the other hand, makes Jeff watch _Glee_. Deal breaker.

For all you Alison Brie fans, Funny or Die has a series episode that features her (semi-)wholesome self: [Bad Dog](http://www.funnyordie.com/videos/814484ebd6/the-committee-ep-1-bad-dog-w-alison-brie-rick-sommer?rel=by_user&rel_pos=1).

She also did Chris Hardwick’s [Nerdist podcast](http://www.nerdist.com/2010/06/nerdist-podcast-20-alison-brie/) two weeks ago.

I’m not stalking her.
