There are a lot of bitchy girls, and I’ve met plenty of them. I don’t know about you, but I don’t enjoy making people feeling terrible or being so rude that all of my friends talk about me behind my back. Women who put down other women/act like they are better than other women are the most heinous of all. Because guess what, bitches? You’re not better than the rest of us.
I know that when you’re complaining to your friends about a bitch you know, they probably give you some excuse like, “Oh she’s just threatened by you” or “She must be really insecure with herself.” While those things may be true, some girls are just bitches and probably don’t have a reason for being one.
Are you afraid you may be a heinous bitch? Well fear not, my friends. Here’s how you know: Read More »
Note to self — “mean girls” exist well beyond both high school and college. And when they roam the streets of the real world like they’re stomping through the school hallways, they will set you up to fall into a trash can, head first, and smile about it. Heck, I even had one for a boss once. And that woman paid me way too little for the crap she put me through for her own amusement.
Since graduating last June, I bounced around a few odd jobs in order to procrastinate studying for the GRE and thinking about the rest of my life. One opportunity, a 9-to-5 office gig with an hour commute each way, had me writing content for an online lifestyle magazine. The office was chic, decorated with tons of artwork and had enough iMacs for all. Lunch was provided daily, parking was complimentary, and my co-workers were all around my age. My boss was a young female entrepreneur whose ideas were as inspiring as her fashion sense. If I was going to be doing busy work for a little while, it might as well be somewhere too good to be true, right?
From double DUIs to shoplifting charges, it’s been hard to watch Lindsay make headlines more often from criminal activity than from movie deals (keeping them, at least). She hasn’t led a blockbuster in years, but now she’s collecting attention for racking up $90,000 in unpaid limo bills and getting kicked out of a community service program, before a progress hearing in court. And dentists definitely aren’t her biggest fans—what the hell is up with her teeth?!?
Picking the perfect film for a girl’s night always comes down to how you want the party to go. Comforting a friend with a broken heart? Avoid the dramas and rom-coms. All the girls feeling stressed due to boys, bills, and work? I recommend a Disney classic. Feeling nostalgic? Anything 80s or anything that was released when we were in high school.
Here are some of my favorite girl’s night movies. Picking the wrong movie can cause epic rage explosions (especially if a certain girl is reminded of a certain guy) or long crying jags. Not a great way to get the party started.

Go grab your pjs, girls, and make sure to add M&Ms to your popcorn. It’s time for the slumber parties to begin.
There’s always going to be that one girl in your group of friends who seems to take personal pride in your current single status. Regardless of whether she’s single or not, or even somewhere in between (aka dating some aspiring rapper who has a recurrent gig at the local BBQ joint with his not-so-talented beat-boxing cousin), it seems the night hasn’t ended until she’s gone out of her way to make you feel bad about your single life. Since a bitchy attitude has yet to hold up as a reasonable excuse for murder in court, just know there are plenty of other ways to deal with Miss I-Hate-My-Life-So-I’m-Going-To-Make-You-Hate-Yours-Too.
Lesson #34 – How To Deal With A Mean Girl, maturely and not-so-maturely.
First, you can follow your mom’s advice and brush her and her snide remarks off. Don’t get me wrong, I love my mother and she has given me some amazing life advice (examples include, “When it comes to coffee stains, dab, don’t rub” and my personal favorite, “It’s time you found some inner peace, dammit”) but let’s face it, there are just some days you don’t feel like being the bigger person. I respect the girls who can walk away from every snide comment, just like our mothers preached, because it really does takes more empowerment to walk away. But on days when you get sick of ignoring Miss Thang and her attitude, you can try some of these methods. Read More »
It seems as though the Hollywood is putting out more sequels and remakes than original ideas nowadays, and if it’s this bad now, we can only imagine how bad it’s going to be 30 years from now. Oh well, even if the writers of the future are even more out of ideas than they are now, at least there are a few recent movies that they could remake and then play on TBS during Saturday afternoons.
What movie would you like to see remade and which movie should Hollywood never touch again? What movies do you consider to be the classics of this generation?
So to start, this is humiliating, but last Friday night I peed my bed. I’m a 24-year-old grad student and live in the dorms at my school. I have no idea what happened, and this was a completely random event. Anyways, my roommate found out (it was pretty easy, she was awake when I woke up soaked…), which was even more embarrassing. I got up, took my wet pajamas off and went to take a shower. When I got back to the room, I stripped my sheets and took everything to wash. When I got back, I sprayed my mattress with Lysol…I think I handled the situation very responsibly.
But Monday, I got an email from my RA, requesting a meeting with me, my roommate, and her boss, who runs the whole dorm. Come to find out, my roommate had taken pictures of my wet bed and clothes. In the meeting, they expressed their concern that a girl my age was “still wetting the bed,” which is apparently how my roommate explained the situation. My RA’s boss said I had to pay for a new mattress and am required to have a waterproof mattress cover on the new one. Having the mattress cover isn’t a big deal, but paying for the new mattress caused my account to be billed and now my parents are aware of the incident. My roommate also told EVERYBODY in our hall about my accident, a rumor that has circulated to many more people on campus and made me the target of many snide remarks. Up until now, we had a great relationship. But I have no idea what to do! This has been the most humiliating few days of my life. I really don’t want to live with her anymore-should I request a room transfer or what? I cannot believe this has become such a big deal!
If you could offer advice, I’d really appreciate it,
Thank you,
BW
So yeah. This is happening. One of the greatest movies of our generation (and of LiLo’s career), Mean Girls, is getting a straight-to-DVD sequel. And it looks appalling. No worse than appaling. It’s like they gave the Mean Girls script to a second grader and said “don’t change the plot, but rewrite all the dialogue”.
