Agreed. Everyone who says you can drive high can suck it. I tried some legal weed when visiting Washington (I don’t normally use it) and I felt way more messed up than when I drink. And even if I had only felt mildly high, if you’re feeling ANYTHING stay away from the driver’s seat of a car. I hope the driver gets in…

Well yeah but there are extremes in every group. But just like I wish Republicans would slap the tea party down, I want to make a point of saying that this extreme form of feminism does not represent me or most feminists I know. Because it’s too easy for that kind of feminist to become the default that people think…

It’s awful. It’s like a real life parody of what Republicans think feminists are, which is never what I thought a feminist was. It is embarrassing and harmful to the whole cause. I mean, I know trigger warnings are a real thing and some people seriously do have PTSD but on the other hand, for the most part, I really…

Do you know Matraca Berg? She’s the writer who wrote hits like Strawberry Wine (among many others) and she also has released a couple albums of her own. Though I don’t listen to a ton of country, she is definitely one of my go-to artists. Martina McBride is another.

Oh, I just thought you meant both. And I was petitioning for clemency for the proposee.

What if the friend didn’t know her boyfriend was going to do this? I would HATE to be the proposee in this situation too, because at that point even if you know how totally rude it is you’re kind of stuck saying either yes or no. You are in the middle of a scene of someone else’s devising but unless you are literally…

Yeah. I wasn’t invited to my dad’s wedding either (in my twenties). Or rather, I was, but he told me a few days before it was happening ON ANOTHER CONTINENT, in case I wanted to drop by. Not a serious invite. I was offended. I’m close to my dad but he is beyond clueless about this stuff.

Exactly. If she had spent 8 months planning, it would have been too close to her sister’s wedding. If she had spent too much money it would have taken away too much from what her parents were giving her sister (theoretically, not all parents pay for weddings). If she had even announced her engagement in that time…

I certainly think so! I’m amazed that so many people think that two people from the same family or close friends should never be simultaneously engaged or get married within months of each other. What if you’re from a big family? You have to get on the waiting list to start your married life? It seems crazy to me.

Eh, I don’t really see anything wrong with this. Her sister got engaged, but we don’t know for sure that’s why she got married as quickly as she did. She might have been ready to get married, and did it quickly for a variety of reasons. Or she might have gotten married quickly to actually keep from stepping on her…

No, don’t tell me these things. I love their clothing. What am I supposed to wear now?

A lot of people are upset by this campaign, but I think there may be a different way of looking at it. The most infuriating (well, one of the most infuriating) things about the whole Duggar situation is all the defenders saying how normal his behavior is. Likewise, there are definitely guys out there who think date…

I actually think the dog might have belonged to someone standing nearby, not the parents, but if not that would certainly be helpful.

Walked by a leashed kid playing with an unleashed dog on the sidewalk yesterday. Was filled with silent judgement as I walked by lol.

Very important point if she is disabled. Definitely blurs the lines of consent. Makes him an abusive asshole instead of just a thirsty thoughtless asshole (and if she wasn’t disabled, I would put her in the second category as well).

Yeah. I was on the phone with her as this occurred and realized what she was doing in time to have her immediately call her bank and change all passwords. But seriously.

OMG my mom is the worst with this. I have told her so many times not to clink email links or put personal info into a webpage, and she literally just like last week clicked on an email supposedly from her bank (it wasn’t) and then input her passwords and everything into the resulting page. I MEAN!!

Er, I don’t think size 4s are as rare in the wild as you seem to think lol. I’m assuming you’re tall. I’m short, not super skinny, and still a size 2. Us shorties count too. I think we’re actually a fairly large group. I wouldn’t consider size 12 to be undersized either (though certainly not oversized!). I think it’s…

That sucks. Tattoos are hot. Are you going to tell me something that ruins tall men for me too? Sob.

Whhaaaaatttt????? Someone said that to you? Out loud? Not just in their head? And it was a therapist? Wow.
