I think ending your post with namaste may be the biggest fuckwit thing ever. So disingenious. So we shouldn't squeal, gossip or hug anymore? We should just get all lame, forget what makes us happy, dig in and trudge along like a pack mule? We should sell out our values and happiness all together to entrench ourselves into some comformist, middle-class paradigm? Fuck no! My parents didn't do that and I certainly will never. I don't own a house and it's not really an option since I live in NYC. I pay an obscene amount of rent and still manage to do so while hugging, giggling, squealing and generally running around. I'll never sell myself out just so I can be perceived by some standard that I don't adhere to as "responsible" or what a 30 year old lady should be doing. Oh yeah, I'd like to add that I have a kick-ass job affecting political change for women. Wait, I guess I should abandon my feminism/radicalism so I can make more $$$ and buy a house and drive a fancier car and not shop at H & M. Should I even be shopping at H & M and dressing like an old lady hipster now that I am 30? In closing, I'd like to add a final fuck-you to Broch. Have fun in the suburbs! Dear Broch:

I apologize for my tone, it wasn't deserved at all. The point that I was intending to make was completely missed, so I won't begin to try to explain it at this point. Ariel, I'm a big fan, so please take it from that vantage point. Namaste' My delivery was definitely in poor form, not the tone I intended at all. I apologize for my tone, it wasn’t deserved at all.
