100% agree. When I started my first teaching job, I told myself that I would work very hard to prevent and/or diffuse any bullying that I noticed. I remember being in high school - it wasn't always fun or easy. So about a month into my first year of teaching, I just got sick and tired of the kids calling each other

Odd. When are we going to find out if the Kardashians are really acting out a Truman Show-esque life?

What is this social coupon you speak of? I didn't watch the wedding special, but now I'm curious.

Perfect. Thank you.

For the Jezzies who have tried online dating - do you use your personal email when you sign up? I think that I am hyper-vigilant, but part of me hesitates to use my personal email since it has my last name in it. Am I overthinking this? Obviously if things in the online dating world go well for me, I would

I would definitely have a conversation with your manager. It sounds like what your co-worker did is wrong on at least two levels: 1) he should never have touched you without your permission, no matter what; and 2) if he is misleading customers to the point where the business's credibility could be compromised, it

I might have to borrow that idea.

I think proposals all depend on the personalities of the parties involved (intimate, one-on-one proposal vs. score board at a hockey game). But as cheesy as it sounds, just speak from the heart. Good luck, and congrats!

Well, you know, I'd watch a buddy-cop movie co-starring Justin Bieber as long as Jason Isaacs was in it.

I believe this is from the movie DragonHeart. Only worth watching to see Mr. Isaacs.

I hate my period, but I hate it more when it just doesn't show up. I become the most paranoid person.

It's my birthday this week, too. We'll celebrate together!

My World Cultures prof in college played the Boney M song "Rasputin" for my class when we were studying the Romanovs. It was amazing. Now my sister and I dance to that song on the Just Dance 2 game, and it's even more amazing.

I am a fairly new teacher myself, so I get it - the initial shock as to, why, at the end of the week, I felt like I had run a marathon, lost four shouting matches, and gone through a thorough psych exam. But damn, I can act my way out of a paper bag now, and then some. Oscar here I come!

This is not helpful, but did you know they made a movie about your situation? It's starring the adorable Anton Yelchin. I hope that your story has a happy ending.

"If you truly feel called to teach then go for it, but if you're simply feeling burnt out and looking for a less emotionally taxing or stressful job teaching isn't it."

Thanks all for the replies. I've sent the address to a few folks (didn't want to post it, for privacy and all) so we'll see what bounces back. Either way, this will probably involve a conversation at the post office when I try to mail it. :)

Well, it's confusing. Because the driver told me he lives in Istanbul, but I don't see the word 'Istanbul' or anything else that would translate to Istanbul in the address. There is no zip code of course. I'm wondering if I took it into the post office if they would be able to help me decipher it; maybe I can just

I played that soundtrack so much that my dad actually threw it away, probably in a fit after hearing the Quad City DJ's one time too many.

Anyone familiar with Turkish? Here's the story: on a trip this summer to Istanbul, my phone disappeared on a bus, but I gave my info to the driver. Five weeks later I get a text message (on my new phone) saying that he has my phone and wants to return it. After several comical attempts at communicating with each
