Being lazy is bad; unless you still get what you want, then it's called "patience".
Hubris must be punished. Severely.

How did she become a thing and when is she going away.

She's the voice of this generation.

Hrm she is?  Maybe I should look up who exactly she is.

Oh she is the star of that show Girls everybody was talking about for a few seconds. 

That's how her character on Girls described herself.

This generation needs to know when to keep shit to itself.

They just cant help themselves. Drama, drama, drama, woe is me, vomit. Facebook, twitter..etc. They are nothing but people in need of validation. Kind of like Garbon and Raz.

Yeah probably best if you didn't try to play dimestore psychologist. Languish is hardly the place I would turn to if I was seeking external validation. :lol:

I told you guys she was gross.  Though I guess even I didn't know how gross she was.

Um she was seven and she didn't touch anything....so....how is this news?  I mean weird as fuck but she is an actress.

QuoteKids do creepy things but do those children turn around as adults to write about those moments like fond memories? Especially when those moments involve someone else's private parts that you "spread apart." Is it normal to compare what you did to something a sexual predator would as a full grown person?

That's a bit of a weird argument to make. It's like saying that an adult who writes how he used to burn ants as a kid is an arsonist.

Anyways, maybe the willingness to overshare is the thing some Languishes are missing in order to finish their novels.  :P

A properly adjusted adult should show shame and remorse when writing about they used to burn ants as kid. She doesn't seem to show either of the two.
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Well, she is an artist. A part of being an artist is the fact that one has no shame (or less shame than other people). I wasn't entirely joking with my post about writing novels - the reason why so many people try to but are unable to finish could be linked to an inner block (you call "shame") against sharing one's inner thoughts.

Don't get me wrong. I have no great love for Lena Dunham. But if we are to lambast her for something, then it should be her "fat acceptance" attitude, which advocates harmful, unhealthy behaviours, not her creepy childhood oversharing.

Yeah, I'm actually with Marti on this one.  What she did as a kid was weird and maybe unhealthy, but it'd be better to get on her for what she's doing that's currently causing harm to herself and others.

The uproar over the vag story isn't really doing anything except selling more copies of her book.  Kinda surprised everyone's falling so hard for the troll.

Experience bij!
