She wouldn't know a Marxist if one seized her means of reproduction

This year, and at least the last 40 years in certain circles.

Well, it might show how her parents felt, but it probably wasn't illegal. If you're defined as a "family farm" and you're working your kids, you can get away with calling them employees even when they're really young -- although 11 years old seems a bit much, I thought they had to be at least a teenager.

SER at his finest (ex: see above) is like eating an ice cream sundae. Take it slow; savor every spoonful. But there's always these special little sentences tucked in there with that "Yep, that would be Stephen," flavor, such as "Loeffler was stiff and overly scripted, like an animatronic model at an Ayn Rand amusement park."On a grumbly note, is not this woman dripping with more cash than she knows what to do with? Cannot she afford to hire someone who will tell her the honest truth, that wearing her own shoulder-length hair with someone else's mid-back-length hair sewn in looks weird and is unflattering?

Is that is what is going on with her hair? I thought she stole it from an Afghan hound!

I read a Forbes article about Loeffler. Sure she grew up on a (family owned corporate big-agriculture ) farm. She graduated from a small Christian college in 2002 and then, as the article put it "built her career" for the next two years before marrying her billionaire husband. She then worked for his company, in "executive" roles like marketing, communication, "investor relations." Which, as far as I can figure out, means thinking a lot about their public image and schmoozing with rich investors (How much "marketing" does a private securities exchange company need?). So yeah, she's a "businesswoman." Like Ivanka Trump's a businesswoman, only she probably actually had to fuck her sugardaddy.

The hair bugs me too. It's probably the least offensive thing about her, but I've seen store mannequins with more natural looking locks.

And the bo-tox?

you dont find that a shallow comment? I thought her hair looked nice.

I still think she's an extremely disturbing person and somewhere on the moral plain of the devil.

I dislike SER's points of view but we ultimately agree politically. For instance, we both think Kelly Loefller is terrible but he seems more gung-ho about pulling the racism card as the cause of her awfulness. SeR wants to see the world in a racist vs non-racist binary where most people don't think like that, it's possible to over-explain racism.

I believe people like Kelly Loeffler are screwing over white and non-white people equally. SeR's whole thesis is that racism is involved with anything that rubs him the wrong way and he seeks to prove that with every story he writes. I can't begin to tell you how divisive that is to the electorate.

So I Googled `what happens if someone runs their fingers through your hair while you have extensions?', and found this bit of wisdom in a Cosmo article (27 problems only girls with extensions will understand):

The thought of your boyfriend running his hands through your hair sends chills up your spine.The inner workings of your hair now feels like a construction site; there are tiny pins or clips everywhere. So, he won't be able to even get his hands up in there and if he does, it will be a bitch to get them back out. So. That sounds like fun. Among the other 26 problems: you can't just wash your hair and go--this is a process; you have to use a special shampoo or the glue dissolves and they fall out; no more bundling one's hair in a towel; it has to be styled instead of just dried and shaken out and getting on with life; you can't wash it as often as you otherwise would--picture the afghan hound curling up on your head in a plastic cap while you shower, and substitute dry shampoo for washing hair. You can't just brush your hair, there's a detangling process; your scalp overheats and is itchy, and you can't scratch it; you can't swirl your hair up in a topknot or put it in a ponytail--nothing spontaneous can happen on this head. The article also said you have to explain to new boyfriends that they're not allowed to pull your hair. I have no response to that, so will just keep going to the finale: you can get bald spots from this procedure. My remaining questions: why? and also, isn't being rich supposed to solve problems? Otherwise, why bother? What would be the point? Can't they just pay their hair to grow and be beautiful? and: DOES SHE EVEN OWN A MIRROR?

And he thought he was being so damned morally upright! "See here! This has gone on long enough!"

so much botox. I am surprised she can achieve a simulacrum of a human smile.
