True story: my grandmother was in town and she and my mom were lecturing my 17 year-old self on the outfit I was sporting for the night. My grandmother throws in the "Why buy the cow when you can have the milk for free?" gem and before I can sass back about giving everyone a free milk sample or some such nonsense my…

God yes! I used to watch this show as my guilty pleasure and now it's not even pleasureable. The original model for the show worked well and if it ain't broke, why mess with success?! I miss Miss and Mr. Jay both. Now I find myself literally incapable of watching this show: I am not being figurative, I do try but I…

You make a fair point about the "useful" info. I noticed this in college a lot when all self-defense classes and tips were about stranger rape and not about the myriad real life dangers when you get entitled boys + everclear punch + 18-year old girls. The reality isn't dark alleys where assault is 100% clear but often…

I do! Especially since a little over a year ago I found myself making the opposite pronouncement. Also, after being embarrassingly clueless about the date of my last period and average period length and time between cycles when asked by my OB/GYN, I got a period tracker app on my phone. Well, I either got the date of…

We are talking in circles then. I didn't think you felt she should... I've lost the thread of this conversation,

I always have thought it prudent to recognize the limits of my own control.: that is to say, I have very little control over the actions of society and the actions of others. I chose to take self-defense courses and educate myself on strategies for self-protection to reduce my risk for a wide variety of assaults,…

Right, but she'll be a sex offender if convicted, pretty sure distribution of child pornography gets you on the sex offender registry.

Way to age Uncle Jesse, way to age. We both grow older but just like when I was 14 or so, I still look at you and think: "yes, please!"

Yeah this bothers me too! To be told you aren't free to take picturesof your own body as you see fit seems absurd. To be prosecuted as a possible sex offender for pictures of yourself is truly rediculous.

Good because I lost my card the other day and am worried about what I'm going to do when somebody asks to see my hetero-credentials!

I second your posts here because I identify as straight but share your feelings about being aroused by images of women with other women. I also get aroused by images of men with other men. In fact, I think what is arousing is watching people I find beautiful be sexually aroused by each other and I'm like yeah, sex is…

My dad's a dentist, endodontist actually. In college, I would pull all-nighters and swish real coke in my teeth (no diet for me baby). Graduated with 14 cavities. WORST DENTAL VISIST EVER! You know its bad when she goes "Oh God!". All in between my teeth. If I'm ever violently killed, they can identify my body in a…

Haven't you ever heard of the Jersey Shore? Been there, Snookered that!

Ok can we talk about how many damn times that alleged writer used the word "alleged" and often in weird ways? That's my allegation!

Wrong!!! You would think so but no. Up until I got pregnant I was on Re-DONK-ulous amounts of adderall and vivance (seriously, cannot believe a medical professional supervised this) and I gained weight. You don't eat, don't eat, don't eat BINGE then sleep. Not a recipe for fitness. Lost20 lbs now off speed and eating…

Its Rafi from the League. Google that phrase and watch some clips; his character is handsdown one of my favorite characters on TV. Try the one where he teaches his sister Sophia and her friends self-defense. I laughed so hard I was crying.

Or a fawn a la Mr. Tumnus from Narnia.

Wasn't gonna read that link. Now I simply cannot go about my day without first determining the context in which "hippopotamus cock" is situated. Way to tease a story! Off I go...

I am now walking around with Morgan Freeman's voice in my head sonorously proclaiming "Christian Grey ripped out my tampon". Oddly, it makes the whole thing less rediculous - of course he did Mr.Freeman, who wouldn't!?
