Not the Best Example of Female Empowerment, Are They?


Helen and Linda are wishing each other a lovely International Women's Day, or at least that's what you'd think they're doing. In reality they're engaging in a majorly passive-aggressive struggle for dominance hidden under a facade of sickly-sweet politeness. You know, the same thing they always do when they talk to each other.

As it's also National No Smoking Day, I want everyone to put out their cigarettes, refrain from taking up smoking, or stop holding seances in the girls' bathroom. Whatever you'd most prefer.
