Before reaidng the profile I would have thought the only reasonable answer would be “who cares?”. After reading it that feeling is only strengthend.
What I like about her background is that being exploited by her employer
led her to join a movement that believes that such exploitation does not exist.
The ‘lass’ shows a continual inability to tell the difference between anecdote and evidence, among other sins. This pretty much overwhels whatever virtue her “breeziness” or “bracing” might bring.
I used to read her blog regularly, but after a while I realized that she really doesn’t know what she’s talking about. And doesn’t much care. Her standard justifications used to be (may still be) “a former prof said” and “I have some friends who know something about this, and they say…”
Pretty weak.
i’m pretty much in love with megan. she is pretty cute too.
Megan built a following before images of her were widely known as far as I can tell
Eric, don’t actually answer that. I was teasing you, but on reflection, it isn’t funny.
Or, as JK Galbraith put it, ‘Under Capitalism man exploits man. Under Socialism the reverse is true.
And I think Megan is cute as well as smart.
maybe an eight or less by US standards, a seven by european.
sorry
I have a problem with people who twist the truth: She lies about having allergies so that restaurants will omit ingredients that she doesn’t like.
