A couple of months ago I was going through a hard time - I was finally accepting that I needed to quit grad school and I just wasn't making it in my program, and I was overwhelmed and extra emotional because I was scheduled to get my depo shot soon and that always fucks with my mood. So what did I do? I spent *hours*…

Wait, I think they're talking about rings...

Guys, I freaking love Carly Rae Jepsen. Call Me Maybe is STILL my ringtone, and this video is adorable.

Ugh, gross. Mine happened on the train on the way to work. I was putting in my headphones WHILE he was talking to me, I clearly did not want to be having that conversation!

I once got hit on with "do you have a boyfriend?" "Yes" "is it serious?" "Yes" "well you should hit me up when you break up." BITCH, wishing ill on my lovely relationship is not going to win you any points with me.

I always see white and gold at first, and then I can get myself to see blue and black by staring at it a bunch and scrolling up and down, but once I switch to blue and black I can't get it back to white and gold. Until I see it again later, when it starts out as white and gold again. This is so confusing!

To be fair, I would totally say that if I was at that party. But I'm also kind of lame.

I'm so jealous of all these people who seem to have a 2-hour radius of where most people will be coming from. I currently live in Los Angeles and right now my absolute best friends are pretty much evenly split between San Francisco, D.C., and all over the Midwest. I miss my friends...

Oh my god, I'm so obsessed with North's sassy face here. That is one expressive baby.

It looks so warm!

Dipping it in tea makes both the tea AND the cookie tastier. Plus it's better than all of the other cardboard nonsense that is Girl Scout cookies.

Whatever. If a particularly nice Girl Scout earns my pity enough for me to actually but a box, I'll buy the trefoils and dip 'em in some tea. Then I'll get back to eating REAL COOKIES.

Duh, you're supposed to dip them in tea.

As a former Girl Scout, I'm saying it: Girl Scout cookies are overpriced and not that good. I can get better cookies for less money at the grocery store. The only flavor I actually like is the shortbread one.

I vote yes. But I'm no shade expert.

I was 9 during the 2000 election and I remember arguing with my fellow 9-year-old neighbor about it. I didn't know much about politics but I'd seen some of the debates and both of us were obviously just parroting our parents' views, but I remember her saying, "GORE KILLS BABIES!" And despite not knowing that much…

Call Me Maybe is STILL my ringtone. #noshame

You're right, biology (scientists have found that obesity literally changes your metabolism for the rest of your life), neuroscience (sugar can set off the same reward centers in your brain as crack and people are studying how addictive certain foods are), psychology (why do people binge eat?) and economics (food…

Yes, because clearly the analogy is that when there's traffic deaths we don't ask people to drive more carefully. Oh wait, no, we do. But we also do actual research to try to solve the problem in the most efficient way possible, rather than throwing our hands in the air screaming "why won't people stop falling asleep…
