The Sexist Showdown
They brought the sexism, I brought the snark.
And the wine.

More Sexist Showdown will be coming your way after the holiday. But if you’re interested in some liveblogging snark, I’m currently liveblogging the Republican debates over at STFU Sexists!

In Jess' defense she's a elementary school teacher, not Cameron Diaz in Bad Teacher. Every girl owns a pair of heels whether she wants to or not. Because she has to have a pair for some ridiculous event that practically requires it. Or well, because they looked pretty. As for me I'm as graceful in heels as I am on ice skates (and by that I mean I'm a ridiculous klutz). Doesn't make you any less of a women for not being able to wear them.
Asked by cuz-im-awesome
I think there’s a difference between not being graceful in heels and laying prone on the floor unable to move because you put on a pair of heels for five seconds. This isn’t about being an elementary school teacher vs a catwalk model, it’s about being an insufferable, exaggerated 2D character that is so inept at life that they seem to single-handedly poke a large hole in Darwin’s theory of evolution.

Why does Jess always act like she's drunk or something? Is that supposed to be cute?
Asked by theincantation
I think this show would be a lot more entertaining if that were a part of her character. In fact, if you do decide to watch this show, do it with the understanding that Jess is drunk off her ass 24 hours a day. They just can’t show it because of the time slot or something.

Have you not seen Veronica Mars? Because if you haven't, you need to. As in it's a good show, or at least it was and then the third season is kind of a mess. I bring this up because Douche Jar (the character) shows up in VMars and it makes me sad he's doing this show.
Asked by reluctanthurricane
I LOVE Veronica Mars! It’s a great show! You’ve reminded me of it, I’ll have to rewatch it.

- This show is boring. Very little happened. My pizza was a lot more enticing than the action on screen.
- The perpetuation of this annoying Hollywood trope has got to stop. Srsly.
- While the gender essentialism is not NEARLY as bad as shows like “Last Man Standing” and “Man Up”, it does crop up annoyingly in jokes from time to time
- This show is clearly not going to progress beyond, “This quirky chick is going to teach us doods how to feel” and “These dudes are going to have a soft spot fo me and teach me how to be a person!” There are a few laughs, but it’s ultimately a trite, simple, and annoying show.
And there you have it! Another sexist show down (although a walk in the park compared to its two other Hall of Shamers). Until next time, may the Snark be with you.

No one will burst into song in the middle of a restaurant while stone cold sober.
No.
Never will happen. Not ever. STOP IT.

do you like how they have that one character who is an ass all of the time but it's totally okay because there's the douchebag jar? yeah, no.
Asked by kimberleycommonname
I like how they have that one character that I want to drown in my bathtub
O wait that’s all of them
GOOD WRITING LOL

I mean at this point I know we’re beyond anything making sense but still
Also it is not that hard to walk in heels, I sprinted half a mile home from the bar in heels not two hours ago because I had to pee so badly
Anyway
THEY’RE JUST SHOES, GOD

All of them make me want to stab myself in the eye with an ice pick.
Stop ogling that model and taking off your shirt you horrible 2D characters.
OH GOD NO I THOUGHT THAT THE SHOW WAS ENDING BUT IT’S ONLY 16 MINUTES IN NOOOOO
