I did the same thing, but it was my grandmother who had Alzheimer's. The bf at the time actually cried and got mad at me for not seeing past that flaw. Ummm... the movie sucked AND made me relive every aspect of a horrible disease that my family was dealing with. This movie is some sort of torture for anyone who has…

I agree with you completely. My grandmother was one of my favorite people and one of my mom's best friends. Watching her and my family suffer through Alzheimer's was the worst thing I've ever experienced and it doesn't work anything like this. I was so infuriated when I saw this movie that I only remembered that she…

Exactly. Luckily for me, Splenda isn't even considered food for most actual chefs, so I don't have to worry about it too much.

I have to be like that with Splenda. I taste metal for days when I have anything with Splenda in it. People wouldn't believe me, but even in baked goods I would take a bite and be like "sorry, can't eat this because of the Splenda." I call it an allergy now, though I'm not sure what to actually call it.

I used to be allergic to tomatoes but only if they touched my skin. I could eat them but the moment contact with my skin was made I was covered in hives. Luckily, I have since grown out of it, but I have complete solidarity with bizarre tomato allergies!

No. It was based on the religious freedom. That means that you can't enforce your beliefs on someone because they have the right FROM religion or OF their own religion. This is in direct violation of that, which is why it sucks.

Ever since TLC's "Unpretty" video, I knew breast implants were never going to happen for me. I was a VERY late bloomer and now have natural D cups that didn't show up until I was 20 (solid trainer bra size before that, barely even an A). I miss my A cups now, though I do like how some fancy lacy bras look now.

Oh, I totally agree with antibiotics, but like you said, she should have recognized that I was progressing just like my mom.

I didn't mean to imply that all of the issues with the medical profession is the doctor. I do think that there are bad doctors though. And I have run into my share of great ones, but most of my issues with the bad ones are simple bedside manner issues. I can understand being stressed, overworked, and frustrated, but…

My friend has her first appointment with the new doctor this week. Hopefully this one will be better. The other doctor did a basic blood test to see her levels and such, but not much else. And she gave her results while she waited so I'm assuming they didn't do much with the blood test.

I was really hoping someone would come in and defend Piper as a character. It's almost like Jez might not like her because she's an over-privileged pretty, thin white girl, but they'd NEVER judge simply because of that.... especially since her character is supposed to show an over-privileged, pretty, thin white girl…

eh, you'd be surprised at how awful the doctors in America are too. My dad was dismissed as a patient by his neurologist because he "complained too much" about his degenerative disk disease and neuropathy. He was complaining because the VA and MWR (both government) were trying to pass the blame for his issues and he…

Is Linkin Park a British thing? My BFF married a man from London and they always go to the Download Festival. A few years ago she was telling me that Linkin Park was going to be there. I made some seriously mean spirited jokes about them and something about it being 2002 and she was like "well, it's the husband's…

Brilliant point. I think someone above (maybe even first?) mentioned that just because it becomes legal it doesn't magically become a non-drug. Treat it like you would any other drug. Don't be stupid. And be glad, like you said, that it was pot because if she were that stupid with anything else she'd be in a lot more…

Also, I know for certain that other substances were involved with the man who shot his wife, and possibly with the kid that jumped. That's just irresponsible journalism.

Oh yeah. I'd put him in my top 5.

that would be so fun to watch. she takes chances too (like doing true doubles) so I think it would a great matchup. Too bad they'd need a third player.

The nerdist is so fun! they had oe with the composer of the muppets music. it was by far one of my favorite podcasts ever.

I thought for the longest time that it was someone else who stole his twitter handle before he could get it. He is HILARIOUS. I love him. I love him more after his twitter and Woot! presence then I ever have before.

I've been making my white russians with espresso vodka lately. delicious as well.
