You are right. Married parents don’t agree 100% on how to raise their child. Why on earth would a divorce make them more likely to see eye-to-eye on everything. If you don’t like something you say why and then you let it go unless someone is actually in danger.

Generally, they aren’t going to have child support in this particular situation. In ART (assisted reproductive technology) situations the general trend is towards focusing on the intent of the parties, which in this case is demonstrated via the contract. The contract in this case is one that says in event of breakup…

I suspect that this has 100% to do with not being able to tell what the students are reading when they are doing it on a Kindle. You can’t lecture kids on why they shouldn’t be reading that trashy young adult fiction (or the biography of a popular celebrity, or whatever else you are reading) if you can’t see the…

I’m a TCM addict (it is pretty much what I keep on in the background when I am puttering around the house) and his “No! We had a deal” makes me laugh just thinking about it.

My former boss was ranting about how a female co-worker had to leave early to pick up her sick child from school. “It’s irresponsible. I have a kid and you don’t see me ever having to go pick her up because she’s sick.”

I had to deal with some grandparents rights stuff as part of my work (spoiler: you don't have rights as a grandparent). But one of them was just going on and on about how cruel it is that her son doesn't allow her to see the grandkid because that child is missing out on all of the life lessons she can give.

I'm also childless by circumstance (which it sort of sounds like you are) and the thing I HATE is when people tell me my reason for not having kids. "Oh, it's too bad you don't have kids but you have decided to focus on your career."

I hate honeyfunds. It isn't jealousy.

You are right.

As long as the other person is okay with the unequal treatment I still don't see the issue. I'd understand if she kept her "no blowjobs" stance secret. But if she says that she refuses to give blowjobs (no matter what the reason) and her partner is cool with it, then it seems like it is fine.

I still don't think that is selfish if the other person is cool with it.

Most offenders (especially young ones) aren't swayed by harsher punishments. There's a lot of study on this in the field of Law and Economics (Gary Becker's work is really the place to start). Even though a 10% increase in the probability of detection should result in the same reduction in crime as a 10% increase in…

I hate the "tone" argument because I do not know how I sound. I mean, I fundamentally don't. I have a sensory processing disorder that means that I can't really tell the tone of volume of my voice. Like, I have to go by the pressure in my throat to try and tell volume because me ears here it all pretty much the same.

I think you remember the great sketches and forget the, well, forgettable ones. But when you go watch full episodes it is a mix of great and really bad stuff. It is sort of the nature of having a weekly live show. You don't have time to get all the sketches to be perfect. The show goes on no matter the quality of your…

My CD collection is Shrek and Shrek 2 soundtracks and all of Hilary Duff's stuff (including the Lizzie McGuire movie for Why Not?).

Same here. I always thought that I was smarter/more interesting/more adult than everyone else. So when a middle aged man tells you that he's never met anyone like you and how you are deeper than other women...I believed them. I never really understood that they were just trying to have sex with me. I didn't see myself…

No, you're right. It is topic in the documentary Running from Crazy. She saw her father enter the rooms of her two oldest sisters and she believes he molested them. One of the sister, Margaux, committed suicide in 1996.

There are women who want to be provided for 100%. It isn't the choice that I'd make but if that is what she wants then I don't think that you should talk her out of it because there is something disrespectful about telling someone they don't really know what type of life they want.

For some reason you paying the whole check represents something important to her. I have no idea what it is. Maybe it is something that she was told growing up (the whole "the man is the provider idea") or maybe she views money as a representation of love (something that a lot of people, men and women, have. I had a…

PS: No amount is too much. I generally have a $5 minimum tip no matter what my actual bill is at a sit down restaurant because even if I'm just getting some hash browns and coffee you still put in the same amount of work as if I had ordered the a Grand Slam. (Obviously most of my "sit down restaurants" are Denny's…
