Can I add Jacqueline Carey, especially Santa Olivia?

... I could just be missing it but I'm pretty sure that's only four reasons.

I'm especially sensitive to strong scents - they give me headaches, make my eyes water, nose run, everything. I try to avoid scent-wearers at work.

...Classist, petit syrah swilling liberals...

A black hair salon is crucial and not nearly as easy to find (in some areas) as one would anticipate. I live 2 El stops north of Chicago (I'm on the gorram purple line) and I have to travel into Chi-town or west into a Jewish suburb to find product. I can't even imagine the dearth of available (qualified)…

I was thinking about participating in mini NaNoWriMo this year - does anybody know if there's a sign up for the mini, or do you just do it? #openthread

A writer on a show I watch Twittered earlier this week that Jay Leno at 10 caused thousands to lose their jobs. It runs 5 nights a week in a timeslot that used to be occupied by 1 hour dramas. 5 shows out means 5 crews out at about 300 people apiece, to paraphrase her.

@cate3710: It looks like that pole is photoshopped in - it's too shiny and everything is out of proportion along side of it - her arm, her breast, her thigh, the rest of the subway car... it's a bad, bad photoshop job.

@morninggloria: I cried during the stork short before the movie AND all through Up.

@newter135: I've heard of this and I think companies do this so that you can't have any leverage when arguing with them about why employees with the same job description and title make more. Shady employment practices at work.

@SarahHeartburn: It's like Eddie Izzard says: "Guns don't kill people. People kill people. But I think the gun helps. Standing around going 'bang' won't kill too many people, now will it?" (paraphrase)

This is a show with at least 25% more tears, 50% more hugging and 100% more long, flowing hair than any other, and it's moving. ... Why do they all have long, flowing hair? Was there a casting memo? Dress code?

@Zombie Ms. Skittles: I second this motion, but could this regular feature include webcomics as well, like Penny Arcade and Sinfest and xkcd?

@LadyFabulous: wow. ummm. I didn't get the Gerard Butler love until just now. *ahem* What movie is this from?

Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog was also nominated!

@southernbitch: This. I have had more men cry on my shoulder or obsess if so and so loves them than any woman I know. And I can pee faster than all of my guy friends.

@BellaNotte: *waves both hands*

@Laulau: That's pretty much what it read like to me. Which is taking a particular side. Disallowing ads about abortion but allowing religious ads that are (without a doubt) anti-abortion is taking a distinctly anti-choice stance.

But remember, you were once a cheater too, and more importantly, I really could be part of your life without fucking it up.

@Ms. Nickels: I think you bring out a very crucial concept here - that there is an innate understanding, regardless of nurture, that shapes human interactions. So while society might be telling us it is okay to rape, degrade, violate, we are aware that it is not innocent behavior we are engaged in.
