In the spirit of Thanksgiving

Self-esteem boosts, mainly at the expense of others. Is there anything more American?

Things that make me feel one hundred times better about my own life:

• Rich Girls
• Nick Lachey, Jessica Simpson
• imdb.com message boards
• bony women in pointy-toed shoes
• people lagging strollers up stairs
• it’s not July
• P. Diddy’s buck teeth
• anything involving Rachael Leigh Cook
