What? This person wants to do away with the hash tag thread, or the movie? Why would anyone care? The posts at #whitegirlproblems are hilarious. “I brought the keys to the wrong Lexus to college.”
Your husband is right. Julia looks too much like her brother. She is also a skank...
Freudian slip of the fingers ?
I think I agree.
You all sound just like my Julia-repulsed sweetheart. Music!
But be honest, if Ms. Roberts made movies celebrating home, family and country and if, when interviewed, she reminded you of Ronald Reagan just a little bit — you’d say she’s pretty. Right?
(Hubs says wrong. “Face too angular, teeth too big, weird mouth, too loud.” I don’t get it. I think she’s a beautiful idiot.)
“Yuck, something wrong when I’m defending Maureen Dowd.”
The only thing wrong is the non-observance of the rule.
No. I hate her. She makes me want to punch babies and stomp on fuzzy animals. Srs bsns.
What I do?
“I could stroll through Wal-Mart and trip over 10 women who look better than her.”

caveat: I LOVE WalMart.
“screaming her awake from this dream of escaping to finding yourself, “Get over yourself!””
Despite the racist theme of the article, I do agree that yet another movie about self-discovery, finding one’s self, personal quest for enlightenment, blah blah blah is really the last thing we need.
What a self-obsessed culture we have become.
Julia Roberts isn't 'young'. Not a hunnert years old, but no spring chicken either. Besided her mouth is so wide, she looks like she could be Canadian.
White girls don't know when to do it and Black Girls don't know when to stop?
Meh!
Cartoons do better.
The leftist media moguls are getting desperate.
We need another movie like Braveheart, an epic movie based on conservative white people and conservative black people making their lives together, Now THAT would be interesting. A year in the life of SCOTUS Justice Thomas and his wife? There is a bit of mystery there to the loonie left of our country, needs revelation.
I am reminded of The Patriot in its final 20 minutes. A movie initiating itself from that foundation would be quite an intersting watch.Bullets tend not to care much whether the flesh they penetrate is one or the other. The loonie leftist stereotypes all disappear then at some point.
If you are human; you will have problems.
These people need to stop putting the boodgy woodgy on us.
“white-girl problems?”
Known a few in my life, and their problems, from my experience, are mostly taken care of by a kind word, a good listening ear, nodding yes a lot and gobs of chocolate fudge and a few glasses of chilled rose wine. Good barbecue and bags of jumbo potato chips helps, too.
BTW, this applies to brown, black, red and yellow women, too.
Women is women....God bless ‘em all.
That said, the plot is about clueless wealthy people problems rather than about anything racial. The book was self-indulgent tripe. I'm sure the movie will be more of the same. IIRC, the author used a 6-figure advance to travel for a year during which time she tried to "find" herself. Apparently, in her universe, finding oneself involves spending money on oneself. Lots of it.
I can't imagine how truly yucky a person would have to be to only be able to spend time with themselves in exotic locations.
Last I checked, boundless vanity wasn't the sole purvey of any one racial group.
How do I get this problem??
Black Girl problems:
1. Remembering which guy goes with each of your kids.
2. Running out of press-on nails.
3. Not rolling over on your baby in the middle of the night.
4. Falling for another smooth line from a guy who just wants a little somtin-somtin.
5. Hair extensions. Gotta have hair extensions.
6. Is my butt too skinny?
7. Gots ta get my Section 8 housing voucher so I can house my kids. (Atlanta most recently)
8. I can’t get liquor with my food stamps?
9. Praise Jesus, and curse whitey, the source of all my problems.
10. My problems are so much worse than white girls’ problems - I’M BLACK YOU KNOW!
You will never escape - there are too many living horses out there.
