    I mean, she’s McCarty…

    But I feel like this reploat has been around for a decade by now, and it’s always bothered me.

    Just sounds like a George Costanaza thing where she thought of this comeback but never in the moment

      the hair thing could be drama for the tweet but everything else is not the first time nor the last time that happened, there are others stories like that

        I don’t doubt the situation happened, it is common.

        But her reaction rarely is, but it’s always the rebuke you think of “in the elevator” afterwards.

        That’s the less believable part, that she thought of it and used it in the moment. Quick on your feet thinking is like the opposite skillset of doing hard scientific research

            exactly, if someone said that to me i could totally answer with a “but, i’m (my name)?” with a very confused look and in a less cool way, it’s not that clever

          What’s there to be quick about? Someone criticizes you comparing to your work, you tell them you’re the author…

      Don’t you understand? It’s not about him. To have a line as perfect as ‘jerk store’ and to never use it. I, I couldn’t live with myself.
