Reader Roundup [Commenter Quips]
02.08.2010

Monday’s comments are full of grace.

Best Comment Of The Day, in response to Young Unwilling To Part With Edwards Sex Tape: “Is a sex tape really necessary? Every time I look at Edwards I see a dick.” Best Comment Of The Day, in response to Does Heidi Klum Make Maternity Unitard Work?: “My current pregnancy style is more Edie Beale and less Heidi Klum. I actually went grocery shopping yesterday in a summer dress and old fur coat, because it was the only thing my swollen, cranky ass felt like wearing. Unless Heidi suddenly breaks into ‘Tea for Two’ and wants to discuss cats, I highly doubt I’m her target demographic.” Best Comment Of The Day, in response to Woes Of Bros: Super Bowl Ads Star Pathetic Men – And The Women Who Ruined Them :

I will get up an hour earlier than you so I can shower, make breakfast and get the kids ready before you even get up, I will make some fruit for your breakfast so you can stay healthy and alive, I will shave almost my entire body for you and pay someone to rip hairs out of my most sensitive parts, I will work 24 hours a day, every day, I will sit through 2-hour midnight feedings, I will let it roll off my back when I’m treated differently in my workplace, I will work just as hard as my colleagues but make much less than half of them, I will say yes (most of the time) even when I don’t feel like it, I will take your call, I will listen to your mindless chattering about sports, I will listen to your friends’ mindless chattering about sports, I will be civil to your mother, I will usually ignore it when you leave the seat up (again), I will go see the Fast and The Furious 27: Badass Tricycles with you, I will do the grocery shopping, I will carry all your crap around in my huge purse that you hate, I will watch your gossipy sports shows, I will wear something cute in bed, I will buy and wear nice-but uncomfortable-underwear, I will diet and work my butt off in the gym so I can look nice for you, and because I do this, I want a little god-damned respect. Respect-(one of) women’s ( not-even-close-to-being) last stand.

Reminder: If you see a great, funny, insightful, eloquent (or awful) comment, nominate it! Email the comment and the timestamp link to the left of the comment to Hortense at commenters@jezebel.com.

Filed under: Fashion WeekPhoto: Bryan Bedder, Getty ImagesMiss Heidi Klum was kind enough to spend a few moments with me after walking out of the “Project Runway” fashion show on Friday morning.”People think we just see the show and go home, but actually this afternoon we’re going to go to Parsons [School of Design] and decide who the winner is,” she said. “It’s a tough decision.”However, most of the young contestants whose work walked the [...]

We’re seeing double!We hate to say it, but despite Lifetime’s fervent promises that they’d never do anything to change our beloved Project Runway, they have, in fact, tainted it with a faint aura of Television for Women. We don’t mean the television show itself — which has been, for the most part, a faithful paint-by-numbers recreation of the original — but rather, the finale presentation. Most years, the Project Runway finalists’ [...]

This week’s Project Runway challenge was unprecedented, or so they keep telling us, and when we first heard that the prize was to have a design on the cover of Marie Claire, we were very curious about whose publicity team would allow their client to participate in such a dubious stunt. So when ed-in-chief Joanna Coles revealed the cover model to be …. Heidi Klum! … we were way less confused about the whole thing. You know what [...]

The stakes were higher than usual this week for the contestants of Project Runway. The challenge was to create a look worthy of a Marie Claire magazine cover – and its April cover girl, Heidi Klum! The contestants seemed more motivated than usual, knowing what a win meant, but I was surprised by how much a couple of the designers acted like they didn’t listen much to editor-in-chief (and later, guest judge) Joanna Coles when she told them what [...]
