2) Should there be a law against white, middle-aged, college-educated, working or middle class suburban women using phrases like "my peeps totally rock"? Or at least a stern warning?
As a white, private school educated woman, I say YES! Also "homies" or "chillin". We need our own catchphrases, though "Chip and Muffy are such sports" lacks punch somehow.
As to 4? EVERYONE eats cake.
Your icons are awesome!
Also, the point about gender... as someone who thought Brenda Leigh Johnson (The Closer) was AWESOME and wanted to punch everyone in the face who "pitied" Fritz for "putting up with her", may I just say that I like difficult female protagonists.
