@ytuhermanotambien: Mental Floss is awesome. Not about fashion or "women's issues", but fun, interesting articles that don't take themselves too seriously, but don't sexify everything either.

@fridaphile: I've more or less stopped reading women's magazines, but sometimes I just want fluff and fashion and fun, albeit without bullshit. And to me, that's the hole that Jane left.
@milominderbinder: I still miss it. It was the only magazine that actually had people/articles/clothes/etc that I liked.
@ErinGoBawl: Yeah, I had a similar situation in the fifth grade. The kid responded by drawing a picture of himself giving me a bath. The situation escalated from there, and it got pretty creepy.
@Lymed: Hearted, because for me, an utopian future is one where I don't have to pick up dog crap.
@BurntButterandSugar: Robin Thicke is Alan Thicke's son, actually.
@Margaret: It's like he knows what's in my soul.
Besides the awesome high-five demonstration, you can tell that Bo is well trained. He does not bite Oprah when she (a complete stranger) roughly pets him while he isn't looking. He does not attack the cameras/camera people. He just chills out in the White House/dream doggy playground.
@rixatrix: Are there ever cases of hidden poop/vomit at the White House, I wonder? Like when I find regurgitated Christmas wreath in the corner of the basement? Considering the size of the White House...
Don't forget about Frenchie either!
@A Small Turnip: I'm going on Accutane in the next few weeks. I love to hear people's experiences with it, and I'm really excited to get rid of acne!
@dismantledwoman: Same here. There is no way I could get away with just some tinted moisturizer and lip gloss. It's full coverage foundation plus concealer, and the blush, mascara, and lip stain required to balance out the pancake.
@ChessieCat: My mom had a similar philosophy (didn't hurt that she worked for Origins at the time). She bought me Teenage Beauty, and a little compact of Lancome eyeshadow. Peach and lavender, shimmery.
@RenoMartini: My face is so raw and red sometimes, the radiation it surely emits would light a dark room.
@ChessieCat: I'm going on Accutane this next month or so! I'm PMing you.
@Beets.Go.On is the Fat Yogini: My mother used to work in cosmetics, so I'm not afraid to pay for a quality product. I think it's really just trial and error, like you said.
@RenoMartini: Well, shucks, thank you. Yeah, when you have got really bad skin, makeup is way more complicated than "Do I like it?"
@Beets.Go.On is the Fat Yogini: I also have horrible acne, but the reverse problem. Whenever I put on makeup, I just feel like my skin looks even worse. Its a move from red and lumpy skin to flaky, crepe-y skin in mottled shades of brown, orange, and purple.
I guess you could compare this to heels. Some women wear high heels all the time, some women wouldn't wedge their feet into a pair of pumps if you paid them.
@BuffySummers: My dad had that, I think. Or something with X-rays? The doctors also put him on a butt-load of tetracycline, which didn't clear up the acne, but it did ruin his teeth.
