Songs count if performed on guitar, but not piano. (Look, nobody can be held responsible for the pure sexual power of a man playing the piano, ok? Spontaneous piano-playing ups the Vaginas Touched Through Music count to incalculable levels.) Violin counts, but not viola. Also, cello, but not bass. Bass never…

Indian girl here: my dad wears suits to travel in order to avoid harassment from airport security and 3 hour interrogations that cause him to miss his flights because "flying while brown". My mom and I wear dresses because we've endured YEARS of the same bullshit too. And this is not just flying domestically (I'm…

Well, that's fabulous! Just excuse me for a moment while I start crying into my bottle of wrinkle cream :)

But of course you are like the wily chameleon. Many of us have this secret talent to blend in subconsciously. Almost as if we are programmed to do so.

Random takeaways:

I have several good friends with kids and they all do this to some extent. At this point, I'm used to our conversations being a string of interrupted clauses. What I found helpful is to straight up ask about communication boundaries. Like I've asked, "if Little Jimmy wants to chat with you while we're hanging out,…

Exactly. And I'm a teacher and they go to school, and I'm sure the teacher won't appreciate an interruption during class... so they gotta learn.

No. You are not an idiot, but this guy is clearly a dick and you should not waste your time on him.

I'm not too invested in giving YOU a hard time for facilitating his cheating (emotional or otherwise). It's not a golden rule type of choice, but you're also not betraying the trust of someone close to you.

The reasons I see to DTMFA are more about him: There's no good reason for him to still be with his girlfriend…

I don't know what to say, really. It seems like you know what you need to do. This guy is a jerk. There are lots of charming jerks out there, but a charming jerk is still a jerk, and by sticking around, you are aiding and abetting a Class A Jerk. Take a bite out of crime, and ditch this loser. It might be tough, but…

First of all, why isn't he leaving his girlfriend if he loves you so much?

Jesus. I'm all for oxymorons, but this is just too much for me.

Those lunatics are welcome to buy the gross crunchy anti-wrinkle sheets that're impregnated with formaldehyde (seriously) and other assorted likely carcinogens. That's like complaining that your bath towels get wet after you fucking dry yourself off with them.

*Narrows eyes* I am married to one of you people and it makes me sick.

Serious contention with my bf - I think tucking leads to foot freedom... your feet can go back and forth the entire length of the bed without getting caught up in untucked sheets! Feet moving everywhere! He claims untucked means more foot freedom. We compromised with a duvet, but man its just not the same as some nice…

The fact that this Goop article didn't start with hiring a master artisan woodworker to carve a headboard out of downed Birdseye Maple makes it a massive disappointment. 3 Goops out of a possible 10.

Word. I am a college professor. Some classes, I take attendance. Others, I don't. But lil' miss Bey is My Goddess would be getting up close and personal with the letter F were she in my course.

It means something very significant to me that she spoke from an outsider perspective during a time in which people were encouraged even to be nonconformist in conformist ways (be the pretty, flower wearing, peacenik hippie OR the Betty Draper pill-popping housewife). To be loud, obnoxious, boldly Jewish, and talk…

Yes. Come on. YES. They turn in bad assignments, they turn them in late, they cause you all kinds of headaches and you fall behind. Plus, you want them to learn! I mean, I want them to learn and do better.

I think that's totally valid - she's not obligated to cover anything (although setting it in an OBGYN office and not covering abortion would be like setting it in a law firm and never showing a conference meeting). Saying it's too serious is not a great excuse though. Someone else said this but it's ok for her to…
