Makes me wonder about your readers who left ‘male gaze’ and ‘check your privilege’ in comments.

Personally, I hate raw vegans inclusions of raw in otherwise normal words, the original and most egregious still being RAWSOME. Oh the punches to the jaw they all dreserve.

Which normally means, “I’m being rude to your face, but because I’m keeping it real, it somehow excuses my rudeness”
“mis-spoke”
No such thing, you said something dumb, or you lied and got caught.
“Totes bummed”
Totes are a brand of accessories; umbrellas, hats, gloves, scarves etc. If you’ve ever been so upset that you’ve filled your anus with one, or a mixture of any of these – don’t tell anyone, unless they are a medical professional.

Just because you shop at J-Crew and American Apparel does not mean you have a wide range of influences!
