Not to ruin the mystery... but everyone on House Hunters has already bought their house. The entire premise is a lie. The more realistic ending would be, “Why did you convince me to be on reality TV?! This is horrible! What sort of narcissist did I marry?!”

Christ, it really is the worst. Especially because at first, you think, “ooh, that feels nice... warm? Tingly? Huh. What is... Oh. Oh no.”

They’re quite useful if you have something you to rinse/wash that’s too large for the kitchen sink and that you can’t use an outdoor hose on - bathing large dogs, for example. They also make it easier to clean the shower enclosure itself, as there are no awkward angles that you can’t direct water towards.

France has interesting stuff! Let’s bring back facial patches. Have a pimple? Cover it with a patch shaped like a star! ... it has little to do with the above, but it’s one of my favorite random historical beauty fads.

There is SO MUCH fantastic Borderlands cosplay out there.

Moisturize, moisturize, moisturize. Find a cuticle cream you like and apply twice a day. Apply to your bare nails when you’re going polish free. Finding the right base coat will also help - you’ll want something that targets dry, brittle nails instead of something that prolongs wear.

This sounds remarkably familiar. Except it wasn’t my parents, it was my mother-in-law and her friends Eva and Mae trying to set up Mae’s 33-year-old, still living at home son with a Eva’s 25-year-old stepdaughter from Italy who was just here on vacation. Oh, and did she mention that she was going down to Portland next…

Perfect! I’m planning a road trip for next month and I’ve been looking for something like this. Thanks for the recommendation!

“I don’t feel any hate with it at all. Never in my life have I ever been taught that that is what it meant.” - Except, y’know, you’re at a demonstration saying that it ISN’T, so people have told you, you’re just not fucking listening.

Blargh. As someone married to a one-time Diet Coke addict, aspartame was the WORST. I don’t know why, but somehow Diet Coke turns my husband’s normal inoffensive breath into something that smells like it’s been festering in a boot tracked through a wet swamp in August. And even with the use of LOTS of Altoids, the…

Maybe they were wall mounting it? I’m perfectly capable of plugging in cables, but damn if I’m going to lift a 60-inch screen by myself.

Wait. So the painting is in the bowl? So if you actually use the bowl as a bowl is intended to be used, the WTF-ness is covered up and it’s just a plain white bowl?

The drunkest I’ve been in recent years is when I accompanied my 79-year-old grandparents to a party at their retirement community. Initially, I thought the bottles of vodka and whiskey on each table were part of a decor thing, but nooope. That generation just drinks it all like water.

Major is sooo boring. Even when he went all bug-crazy and started stockpiling weapons, he was boring.

This! I struggled with describing a trip I took last year. If I had an hour, sure, I could comfortably discuss the conflicts between Western influence, genocide, extreme poverty, and rich cultural history, but the person asking usually just wants a two-line summary, which leads to me inanely mumbling something along…

I have season tickets to a local sports ball team and the lady who sits in front of me has MORE THAN ONCE propped her arms over the back of her chair and stuck her elbow in my beer. I should start doing this.

This. Hallmark isn’t the only player anymore. Shutterfly and the other photo card companies have taken over a large percentage of the holiday card market. Papyrus and local artists have the $$$ fancy card market for weddings and showers. That pretty much leaves Hallmark with the “oh crap, I forgot to buy something for…

Kinda also depends on if you’re interested in makeup or skincare. Asian skincare is a whole rabbit hole to fall down - I recommend the Asian Beauty Reddit community for basic guidance. They also have a nice list of Asian beauty blogs.

Yes! That was my first thought too! Like... I get that Kentucky seems like the sticks, but it ain’t that wild.

Part of the problem being that MAC just does way too many damn collections each year. But I’d counter your argument by pointing at Rihanna. She’s done multiple Viva Glams and her own RiRi Hearts MAC campaigns, and it’s the latter that everyone remembers. It’s been years since the Viva Glams have been near as iconic as…
