That is a real thing! :) Dogs don't know how big they are so it's seriously confusing them when they go from tiny puppy to HUGE and can't understand why they don't fit where they used to. Though, also a bit sad when they can't understand why you won't pick them up anymore or let them sit on your lap :(

Ohhh but I AM a Francophile... But I am not in New York. Sob.

Ok, question - is there anything being taught within the USA's culture or within flippant comments of parents/adults that gives kids ideas about how one should behave and not behave, and that certain (likely innocent, especially at 11?!) behaviour should be tagged as 'slutty' behaviour?

OR alternatively, is it that I…

That is awful. I completely agree with the mutual blocking idea, I have had issues with that too. Also, for facebook to not be taking your harassment complaints seriously is just disgusting.

Nope, they don't. I reported a whole load of photos at once that were joking about abusing children and beating women (with graphic photos). Every single one came back that facebook had reviewed and deemed not offensive.

Yes!!! I need friends like you.

Ah, clever! I wondered how you had figured out its cleaning abilities. Good plug for Lush there too! ;)

Haha! It's just washing up liquid really, but it's fantastic. I read that it was tested against expensive carpet cleaners and beat them all. It's the ideal lazy girl's cleaning product!

They are missing a trick not putting Sung Kang in more movies or casting him as a love interest. Gorgeous man!

Do you not have Fairy Liquid in the USA? It is my favourite cleaning product ever. I only start to panic about a stain if Fairy hasn't lifted it.

Haha, did you discover this when you where completely out of any other type of soap? Curious if any shampoo would do?

Hear hear, Helena Christensen!!

Oh wow I didn't know about that one! Completely understand that he would get more columns than her because of who he is, but there was just no respect at all. Really feeling for her family, especially with Oscar Pistorious sending them slimy apologies to top it off (I don't believe that man is innocent for a second).

But it was the insensitive way the media went about it, they turned a blind eye that this man may well have intentionally shot his girlfriend and that his character is looking very shady. They have held him up as a hero, even after all the evidence against him. Unless he is found innocent, it is in the very least bad…

Oh fabulous! As if there wasn't enough media glamourising and glorifying Oscar Pistorious in the wake of Reeva's death, of which there is still much debate about what actually happened and what type of person Pistorious ACTUALLY is.

Thank you, happy that it didn't come across as smug- but yeah, we are definitely very lucky! It's a bit of a a fleeting statement, but I really don't think that anyone should be settling for anything less (within their own requirements, of course).

Ah I see, I wouldn't have guessed that :) That is true, they are usually microwave food around here too, no cooking involved at all- makes the expensive prices sting even more!

I agree with you completely! It is 100% a deal breaker for me now after experiencing it. It really did ruin any place that we could go (... That I REALLY wanted to go), because even if we did, he would moan the whole time. We would still to generic, unadventurous restaurants.

I don't think the list is too long/ too much to ask, it certainly isn't reaching for the stars. Honestly, my boyfriend has nearly all of those qualities (apart from being multi- lingual, in a fluent way anyway, and being physically fit- though he is heathy, but not complaining because personally I love a tiny bit more…

Why why why is she still wearing peplum waists?! Did she not learn the first time she seriously failed at it? I have a similar shape to Kim and would never, ever wear a waist like that, it just doesn't go with the hips! If you insist Kim, go for a skirt or dress with a longer peplum frill.
