Seconded on the Sarah MacLean recommendation. I've been chewing through them at as fast a pace as my library will allow, all due to Kelly. I am dying for the 4th scoundrels book now O_O.

I don't know that its fair to assume this happens for everybody, but I do agree with you that this is a matter where you can find your opinion changed before you understand what's happening to you. Two or three years ago, I could happily picture a childfree future, and then somehow, bam, the childfree future seems…

I've seen a church group masquerade as a soup kitchen before - They had a food line set up on the street while someone preached on a continuous loop to the line via megaphone, and every sandwich came with a religious tract. It was extremely annoying, to say the least, especially since I know there are other churches…

It varies quite a bit from one religiously affiliated soup kitchen to another, and it mostly depends on where charity ranks compared 'convert the unbelievers' on the denomination's Heaven Brownie Points list.

Yeah, but this is not the same thing - light therapy is designed to counteract Seasonal Affective Disorder by replicating natural light. Light Therapy does not involve pressing LEDs up against the skin of your eyelids and cheeks to somehow make it look better.

I'd need to see some serious research before I'd give it the benefit of the doubt as to being beneficial. I'd be inclined to say it probably won't do anything really harmful to you (Well, maybe harmful to your dignity).

People don't like it when you don't fit their image of what your life is supposed to look like, no matter what the circumstance. You can't work for an oil company and care about the environment, or be an environmentalist who also eats meat. You can't be a musician who doesn't drink alcohol, or be a real artist if you…

FYI, The Salvation Army also uses some of that money to lobby against equal rights for LGBT people.

What the crapping crap is going on with this stock photo??? Everything about it is horribly wrong. That is either a terrifyingly proportioned giant man,standing in a laundry room, while holding a smaller man head down to put clothes in the washer, or a regularly sized man standing in a laundry room that is…

One summer when I was a teenager, some Jehovah Witnesses came to our door on one of my days off (So, in true teenage fashion, I was still wearing pajamas at like 11 AM, having just rolled out of bed). They asked me if I believed in Jesus Christ, and I told them no, I'm an atheist. The rest of the conversation went…

I too hate the use of the word 'toxins' as it is pretty overused as a generic health boogieman, but in this instance its actually being used correctly - plastics can absorb chemicals and heavy metals that are detrimental to life and hold onto them (and hang on much longer than a biological tissue would) . The plastic…

Watching, even pre-biased to think it was gonna be terrible, I was thinking that's probably about how well I'd do in this ad. Except, my hands, turnouts and arms would probably be better - and I haven't taken ballet lessons for 8 or 9 years. But I did take lessons for 10 years before that, and they drill that shit…

I'm actually reasonably sure there are people doing all the things you suggest.

I've actually heard this is pretty common some places - but usually they reserve charging people for food wastage who go put mounds and mounds of food on their plate and then only nibble at it. They don't charge if you've made a reasonable attempt to eat everything you took.

I actually have been in a steakhouse than seemed to shout "NOT FOR YOOOOU" at me, and it was more entertaining than weird. (Business lunch. Me, my female co-worker and a black guy. We stood out like sore thumbs in a sea of old white businessmen in suits)

Great. Now I have to watch this approximately 50 times. Again - Thanks a lot.

Yeah, the definition of 3D printing is pretty loose - I think it generally just refers to additive processes (as opposed to carving an object out of a solid block), but I could be wrong about that too.

I think it s similar in that you'll have to lay down multiple layers of pigment and substrate in order to get a finished product.

Oh man. I am so looking forward to this. I've never enjoyed constantly hanging on the edge of not dying so much as I do in his game.

Little me would be very pleased that my boobs came in alright and that we do manage to eventually kiss a boy for real (I was very concerned about these things when I was like 12).
