![]() ![]() I adopted what is turning out to be a lifetime aversion to Ernest Hemingway (“an abusive, alcoholic misogynist who squandered half of his life hanging around Picasso trying to nail his leftovers”). I asked my parents for a guitar (I played the harp at this time, which is neither here nor there). And I decided I definitely wanted to be her. “But it’s only four-thirty.” Her father, Walter, beams. “Sadly, no,” she says, barely looking up from her book. ![]() “Make anyone cry today?” her father asks when he comes home to find his daughter curled up with Plath. On the rug, I sit up straight.ĭespite the fact that all princesses know kung-fu now, at the time I had never seen anyone like Kat Stratford on television: a lead female character who drove a cool car, extolled the virtues of feminist literature, once kicked Bobby Ridgeway in the balls (unless in fact he did he kick himself in the balls, right after groping her in the lunch line), used words like “sphincter,” played the guitar, and-importantly-sat around after school reading The Bell Jar. Kat, who does not wear lip gloss, or bop. Kat, who doesn’t care what anyone thinks of her. This movie will now proceed on Kat’s terms. She drives off, and the credits continue, and the music is non-diegetic again-but now it’s Joan Jett. The expression on Julia Stiles’s face is perfect in its neutrality. They sneak a glance in her direction their eyes immediately return to the road/camera in fear. Her Joan Jett drowns out their Barenaked Ladies. Up pulls Kat Stratford-the mewling, rampallian wretch herself-in her rusted red beater. They’re bopping to the beat, singing along. Except that it isn’t, because presently, a car full of lip-glossed bubblegum poppers rolls to a stop at an intersection, and we see that the music is in fact coming from their car. ![]() It’s what I would later learn is called “non-diegetic sound”: sound not existing in the world of the movie, but only for the viewer. The Barenaked Ladies’ “One Week” plays over those colorful chalk-scratch credits. I sit on the rug in front of the television. I saw it only months later, on that second small TV, and I remember being weirdly entranced by the white and green VHS box, with the six main characters on the front, and the little arrow descending from the final ‘u’ of the title to point, oddly, at Bianca’s clavicle, somewhat missing its target of Patrick, who is object of the titular hate. I was twelve in March of 1999, when 10 Things I Hate About You came out, though I didn’t see it in theaters. The only thing I ever remember watching on the second TV is Bob Ross and static. Eventually, we did get a second, equally small TV, with a built-in VHS player, which my parents abandoned downstairs in the living room, unnoticed by our couches, which continued to have eyes only for each other. I do not remember experiencing this as a hardship at the time-it’s not as though that television had cable, even, and anyway I liked to read. It was in my parents’ bedroom, and I was allowed to watch Saturday morning cartoons for a single hour a week. When I tell people this, they usually laugh, as though that’s embarrassing, or a lie. (Yes, yes, we’re all super old.) It also changed my life. A reimagining of Shakespeare’s The Taming of the Shrew, but set in high school (because it was 1999), it opened at #2 in the US, just behind The Matrix. Twenty years ago this week, 10 Things I Hate About You hit the big screen. ![]()

Therefore, users should exercise caution when installing add-ons as not all add-ons conform to laws and regulations, or to the copyright law in particular.

Combined with YouTubers’ high-pitched squeals of joy as they work their way through the process, and you’ve got the perfect recipe for selling toys. With multiple steps to even get to the toy itself, it’s ideal content for YouTube. Sometimes there’s another step, too - like decoding secret messages on the outside of the packaging, or dunking a fizz in some water to reveal the enclosed toy. The excitement for the kids comes from the unboxing process itself - only then will they see their doll and all their accompanying accessories. The toys themselves are not sold in transparent packaging, but are rather hidden away inside some sort of container - a box, case or a ball, for example. Surprises are the sort of toy that’s designed perfectly for the YouTube era.

In a word, yes, though not all eyebrow pencils will work as well for this purpose. The price is spot-on, too, so if it comes in your shade, we say buy it. While we'd love to see a few more shades, the pigment was very natural-looking. We liked the Kybrow Pencil's smooth texture and appreciated that the sturdy tip didn't break during our tests. Also, some color transferred onto her fingers when she ran them over her brows. The pigment showed up well on our tester's skin, but the shade range is somewhat limiting. This product has a slightly dry consistency, and the tip broke a couple of times during our testing. Juvia's Place I Sculpt, I Shade Brow Pencil Though we appreciate the affordable price, the intense pigment made it a little hard to create natural-looking strokes, and we wish it came in a few more dark shades. We also tried L'Oréal's Brow Stylist Definer, which has a nice consistency, a retractable precision tip, and a built-in spoolie. Other Options We Tested L'Oréal Brow Stylist Definer Those with the highest scores were ultimately selected for this roundup. Each product was given a score from one to five based on texture, feel, pigment, shade range, wear, and staying power. Next, they tried out the brow pencils to see how well they actually performed. Our testers inspected various design aspects, including the shape, tip, size, sharpening requirements, and notable features. Our beauty editors took their time researching the best brow pencils on the market and selected nearly 40 to try in The Lab, our Manhattan product-testing facility. Our tester noted its creamy, pigmented texture makes application a cinch. For a more affordable pick, consider e.l.f. Our best overall pick is Charlotte Tilbury's Brow Cheat Refillable Hair-Like Eyebrow Pencil, a highly pigmented formula that our tester said glides on silky smooth in one stroke. Shades: 8 | Waterproof: Yes | Cruelty-Free: Yes Available in eight true-to-tone shades that promise 16 hours of waterproof wear, we really have no complaints about this product. It's also refillable-kind of like a mechanical pencil-so you can cut down on your waste. ![]() The dual-ended design has an attached spoolie to help with blending, fluffing, and shaping. Our tester said the creamy texture goes on smoothly without dragging, and the sturdy point resists breaking and smooshing. You can use it to fill in sparse brows or create a structured shape. Boasting a thin, angled tip, this pencil is perfect for precision application. The formula has a matte finish, so it looks natural and blends in with your real hairs. Not only that, but she was able to draw on realistic-looking hairs in a single stroke-no layering needed. Our tester used the natural black shade and loved how the highly pigmented color showed up clearly without being too stark or overwhelming. After trying dozens of products firsthand, Charlotte Tilbury's Brow Cheat was our favorite. ![]() |
