Status Updates From Straight Talking

On finding that a colleague has secures a celebrity appearance in their show through his friend, a makeup artist - "Does this gay mafia know no bounds?" Bwahahahahzhs

"Her cheeks looks like Aunt Jemima's--round red blotches of color" and 2 scenes ago she talked about her frizzy hair... that she fixed for her giving her soft dark curls instead of her usual frizz

Good god is Mel Black? Please say no 😬😭

This book makes me sad. It also reminds me of sex and the city and of course Bridget Jones. The women really are dressing for men, rearranging their lives for men.men who they all agree are subpar and don't deserve them. But at the same time they're so down on themselves. Even the therapist...

Adam is clearly in love with her... the mothers' mistreatment of their daughters in childhood is so effed up. Just sad

But this line oof - he [another guy, an old friend] was with "the boys" and of course they didn't mind the fact that everyone was sixteen, because men don't care how old their prey is, as long as she's pretty.

Woof

Now it's meant to be tongue in cheek, and meant to be the words of a bitter lady down on love, and again she doesn't literally mean 16, they just seem young to her. But wow that's rough

Reading this again (keep losing the damn thing lol) and my perspective have shifted a bit.

The main character is randomly talking about a club they went to where "everyone was 16", and she doesn't mean it literally bc later she talks about meeting a guy there who was "very very young"- 27.

Cont. Next comment
