My two favorite fart stories:

My brother taught my nieces to belch, and then instead of saying "excuse me", to say "that was a good one!"

I'm really interested in this debate, as I'm a single mom pregnant with a boy due in July. I saw my OB yesterday for a checkup, and he brought up circumcision. He told me that the statistic is 5% may have future medical issues that require circumcision.

"She would just randomly make out with one of three guys throughout the night," says someone who was at a club with her. "Tongue kissing."

You might be interested in this article, which I came across this morning, showing that there is almost no correlation between vaccines and autism.

I don't know about shingles later in life, but my brother and I (both born in the early 1970s) had chicken pox, and my brother had a particularly nasty case. He had them on the soles of his feet and his tongue. I remember how miserable he was. Little Doo got the vaccine, and so will Little Dude when he's born this…

He is a total sweetheart :-) .

I used to talk to my mother almost daily. But she is an untreated alcoholic, and last year she twice called at me screaming for things related to her alcoholism (DWI) that my aunt told my grandfather about. So between that, her telling me that my weight is "a lot" (I'm pregnant), that in the picture of Little Doo…

Here's my beagle Chubbs for you. He would HATE being dressed up. Although I think I can find a picture where Little Doo put one of her t-shirts on him.

I remember my mother watching some disaster movie on TV when I was a kid, and asking her why the lady had her shirt off and the man didn't (it was network TV, so he was laying on top of her and all that was shown was sideboob).

Yes! The first penis I remember seeing was Harvey Keitel's in The Piano. No offense to you Harvey fans, but that wasn't exactly a penis I was dying to see. I also didn't care for the movie.

You're not missing much. I read them last year after seeing most of my friends post about it on Facebook, and hearing my aunt rave to my stepmom about how much she "loved the characters". I read a lot of romance novels in my teens and early twenties, and I thought they were much more erotic than 50 Shades. I've…

Anyone else having trouble relating to the categories this year? Yes, I am square, and middle-aged, but I've never tried and have no desire to try most of this stuff. I'm skipping most of the categories where I feel like I have no experience to form an opinion. Now I'll see if I can find some kids to shoo off of my…

Gasp! What is this magical appliance that would replace two other gadgets on my countertop?

You should try this recipe one time. It is the bomb! I've never burnt a grilled cheese when I've put grated parmesan (or in my case, pecorino romano) on the outside.

Have you tried tighter pants?

Thank you for that info. I tried ground turkey once (I'm assuming it was the regular kind), and I mixed it in with spaghetti sauce, figuring that would cover most of the turkey taste. It didn't work at all, and I've never used ground turkey since. It had way too strong of a "turkey" flavor to it. I buy ground…

I didn't get married until I was almost 30, which is supposed to reduce the likelihood of divorce, and I still got divorced. All those years of being financially responsible paid off, because I was able to buy my ex out of the house. I really like the neighborhood and my neighbors, and we moved around a lot when I…

I bought the Costco sized box for my daughter, and I ended up eating 90% of them. I'm not buying them again, since my ass does not need any more of them. At least the fruit roll-ups in the grocery store have fruit listed as the first ingredient.

That is awesome and horrifying.
