We love a good cringey fashion movement. The romphim. Denim chaps. Earlier this week we were alerted to the horrifying existence of what ABC 7 is calling "JANTIES." Jean. Panties. At first we thought it was a cruel April fools joke, but it seems the war against labias is, in fact, real. Stunned Twitter users were quick to rally against this irritating concept, and this thread quickly became a veritable goldmine of appalled whining. We're not sure which is worse: the concept or the fact that the $315 dollar underwear has already sold out.

The moment that all fans of 'The Bachelor' have been waiting for finally happened last night - the fence jumping moment that has been teased since episode 1. While we still have a two-night finale to look forward to, a whole lotta drama happened (and we can expect more during tonight's edition of Women Tell All).
First, Tayshia and Colton shared a romantic helicopter ride to a dreamy cliffside castle, where the pair made a lot of virginity jokes. Despite a lot of ogling and even a nip slip, Colton and Tayshia opted against a night of Fantasy Suite deflowering. Tayshia seemed a bit disappointed, but in the end was just grateful to get to know Underwood a little better.
Next up was Cassie's date. The two seemed to be getting along brilliantly, sharing steamy kisses on idyllic Portugal streets, and goofing off in souvenir shops. The fun stuff finally gave way when Colton revealed that Cassie's father had not given the stud his blessing. Colton was hopeful that the duo could move past a moment that clearly shook Cassie to her core, but matters got worse when Daddy Randplph himself showed up to persuade his daughter to cut things off with the former NFL player. The evening culminated in an agonizing stretch of Colton and Cassie going back and forth, and Colton inexplicably announcing that she's the one he wants to end up with. Cassie eventually decided to dip, which led to the much-awaited fence-jumping. For a moment that everyone has been waiting for, it sure seemed anticlimactic.
As can be expected, fans on Twitter went absolutely wild tweeting reactions, gifs, and even some well-crafted memes in response. Here are some of our favorites.
As you may have already heard, Roseanne Barr is in hot water over her racist tweets about Obama aide Valerie Jarrett. Earlier today, the star of the now-cancelled ABC show tweeted the following: "guys I did something unforgivable so do not defend me. It was 2 in the morning and I was ambien tweeting -- it was memorial day too -- i went 2 far & do not want it defended -- it was egregious Indefensible. I made a mistake I wish I hadn't but...don't defend it please."
This supposed explanation has struck many as an offensive excuse. Many people, including comedians like Patton Oswalt and Andy Richter, used Twitter to go IN on Barr. Even the makers of Ambien were quick to clap back at her, tweeting that "While all pharmaceutical treatments have side effects, racism is not a known side effect of any Sanofi medication." You can indulge in all the primo shade below.
Roseanne Barr has said some pretty shocking things since the reboot of the '90s sitcom Roseanne, but people were still pretty shocked when ABC abruptly decided to cancel the show after her particularly racist remarks about Barack Obama's former Senior Adviser Valerie Jarrett. Roseanne later apologized for her comments on Twitter, but people have very clearly already made up their minds on the matter.
