Barbie and Honey Badger Don’t Give a Shit

Barbie, like honey badger, is rocking a body-con black and white suit and just doesn’t give a shit. Here’s Barbie appearing in the 2014 Sports Illustrated swimsuit edition.

Barbie in the upcoming Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue

Before you say that Barbie is a horrible role model for young girls, and that those legs are no kind of real, know that Barbie doesn’t give a shit about your opinion of her. Mattel says, “as a legend herself, and under criticism about her body and how she looks, posing in ‘Sports Illustrated Swimsuit’ gives Barbie and her fellow legends an opportunity to own who they are, celebrate what they have done, and be unapologetic.” I think she doesn’t care about your opinion because she is a molded piece of plastic that has no brain or emotions. The honey badger, on the other hand, doesn’t give a shit because he’s pretty bad-ass

One Word: Zombeavers

That’s right: zombeavers. as in zombie beavers and all the obvious jokes they come with. Here is official proof that the zombie craze has jumped the shark. In case you aren’t sure, YES, this is a real movie that some people really spent $2,000,000 making it. Like you could spend 2 million on something better than animatronic undead mammals.

A is for Angst

This poor girl…she just wanted to do yoga without being confronted by the very real problems of the privileged, and then BOOM! she had to look at a black person in her yoga class. Obviously, the woman attended her yoga class only to direct her rage at poor Jen. How could Jen tell? The vibes man, the vibes…

“Because I was directly in front of her, I had no choice but to look straight at her every time my head was upside down (roughly once a minute). I’ve seen people freeze or give up in yoga classes many times, and it’s a sad thing, but as a student there’s nothing you can do about it. At that moment, though, I found it impossible to stop thinking about this woman. Even when I wasn’t positioned to stare directly at her, I knew she was still staring directly at me. Over the course of the next hour, I watched as her despair turned into resentment and then contempt. I felt it all directed toward me and my body.

If only someone had told her that the woman behind her probably couldn’t give a care about her. Stereotyping the woman in your yoga class as a rage-filled depressive isn’t enlightenment. You were all alone in that, Jen.
