Interesting! I've never not had to take my shoes off, so I wear Skechers when I travel - no laces! And always socks. But I've never been through the full body scanner in the US, only in Europe. I have a metal rod fused to my spine so I always carry a doctor's note so they don't think I'm smuggling an internal bomb.

They've been planning for years at my local airport (or maybe not, since it never happened) to have a security lane for families, and one for single people or business travellers. I would be willing to pay more per ticket to avoid getting stuck behind people not understanding they need to take their shoes off. Which…

Does she teach power yoga? I've tried doing that, but it's really hard to move fast from one position to another. You really have to practice a lot to get good at it.

I don't think I ever had my IQ tested, and would be interested in seeing it. Is there a reputable site online to take a test?

Stop and Shop does that, too! I was on vacation 2 years ago and came home to a robocall message about a peanut butter recall. But I was halfway through the jar and hadn't died, so I kept it.

I still say if they can't reply back to you, trying to negotiate is pointless. And I'm a supporter of child leashes if they're going to try and wander away. The kid had to be picked up anyway when she tried to climb on a platform with a delicate sculpture on it.

That, and people who let their kids stand on the subway seats and swing around the pole. They always tumble to the ground, yet the parents never stop them.

It may be easier for the parent, but it tends to produce the little shits I see out in the world who have no respect for anyone, including their parents.

Ha! Very true. I was at a museum a few weeks ago, and this baby girl (maybe 12-18 months old? I'm no good at guessing ages, but she was walking on her own, albeit a bit unsteadily) comes cruising past me. And then comes Mom, "we need to go back, okay? We left the stroller over there, okay? Let's go back now,…

I was about to say, why the hell are so so many people and damn bicycles in front of that house???? But I see the lower floor is a restaurant or cafe. I do not think you'll be getting too many undisturbed nights there.

All my friends and family make fun of me for watching Doomsday Preppers, but I don't care. I'm learning useful survival tips for when the zombies take over!

This is actually happening? It was mentioned on Glee last week and I thought they were just joking and/or poking a little fun at Matt Bomer.

That blood letting is pretty funny - when I was 12 I had back surgery twice, and had to pre-bank blood for myself. I have no issues with needles. By contrast, all the guys (all at least twice my age) around me at the blood bank were moaning and crying about it. Even at that age I was thinking, "Wimps!"

Well, it seems like there's a job opening!

Here's my question about closets. The apartment below me has the exact same floorplan, which means she has a hall closet, too. I am not a pot smoker, nor do I know any. SOMETHING is coming out of the closet, which I believe is probably pot, because it's not cigarettes. So, is she sitting in her closet smoking? …

I take a vitamin called Migrelief which combines Riboflavin, magnesium, and feverfew, which really helped cut down on my amount of migraines, too. Maybe look at that when you can take it again. Best of luck with the rest of your pregnancy!

Everybody is a horrible driver. I've nearly been killed by teens, the elderly, middle aged, men and women. From people drifting into my lanes because they're fumbling with glasses (which are in their hands instead of on their faces for some reason), to the people who drag raced around me yesterday on a local road (I…

I'm always cold, so I keep a big grandpa cardigan at work to throw over everything. We have 2 zones at work - offices and art storage. The art storage is supposed to be cooler, and I spend more time there than anyone else. I seriously almost put my hat on the other day when I was working with some of the art.

I used to work with a woman who called him Pugface. Of course, she was obsessed with Extreme Angler Jeremy Wade (she always called him that, as if it was his legal name), so she had pretty bad taste anyway as far as I was concerned.

At one super fancy division of my company, they have free tampons and pads and lovely lotions. The rest of us commoners have to pay for them in our bathrooms. So every now and again I might swing by and take some.
