...hair. I am violently uncomfortable with her hair.

My household calls it, R.A.N. or Run Around Naked, which the little one loves to screech as she staggers out of her room and down our hallway. It also helps in emails to my spouse. I can just use the acronym so "naked" isn't always in his inbox. Lol!

Add in when the little bugger figures out how to take them off and maul them beyond salvaging and one can go thru a lot of diapers.

It appears that absolutely no one follows me because "Followers" isn't even an option on my account. Sad panda. Maybe I should send greeting cards to the J-staff, embossed with my handle, include pictures, and my college transcript as proof that I'm a real person and not a troll.

It's not perfect, I know. But I do know that my husband really hates dealing with pandhandlers and signature gatherers so the analogy works on him.

Ah, make the comments "a total Monet". Good technique, my friend, good technique.

I've always wondered why there wasn't a flag system. CraigsList for shit's-sake has a flag option. Seems pretty easy. Most of us are here to comment. Flags would help us group-mediate comments.

I saw something last night on GroupChat that was horrifically disturbing. I couldn't even go back and report it because I didn't want to get near it with a 10-foot pole. While I am sure I will end up relegated in gray (again), perhaps for always, I know this is probably the best solution at this time.

OH HOLY SHIT - I loooooooove your alliterative improvement to my analogy. I am forever in love with it. +bajillion stars!!!

Poop GIF, huh?

Is that a map of the human genome?

I always laughed at Project Runway when Heidi Klum would start rambling off all the shit winners receive. It went from like a sewing machine or something and some money to all this crazy crap that no one will ever really buy. I also love how they always feature the products so prominently. They have no fucking shame…

So I know it is really inconvenient to non-porno-gif-posters that images can't be uploaded but I have to confess, I'm kinda enjoying how the regulars are including GIFs in text form. I know EXACTLY which GIF you're describing :-)

I think it does. Maybe not in adults but certainly in children. My kid will see Curious George eating a banana and then gets super excited to eat a banana herself.

Exactly! This analogy worked so well on my husband and his brother that I've decided to use it as my go-to when explaining catcalling to any of my other male friends or relatives. Depending on my audience, I may change it from panhandler to signature gatherer.

I concur.

The sentiments of each party represented matches those of a conversation I had with my husband about the same topic. I tried to explain and explain and he just couldn't see why it was so bothersome. When I finally made the analogy that it's like him going out and getting a panhandler asking for money every block or…

Have you noticed that the comments about the hostile work environment and such don't appear to be responded to by the staff? I feel like their silence is yelling at me that they think the same thing but are treading carefully. Of course, I haven't read all the comments so I can't be sure.

I respond with an image of Dawson crying that ugly-boy cry.
