I am so glad my daughter didn’t read Firestarter when I offered it to her. I didn’t know the stakes at hand!

Oh god, it’s already started!

Thanks. It’s been hugely stressful for the whole household. He’s been sending his resumé out everywhere for a while now and will hopefully get a bite soon. He wasn’t happy there before this crap anyway, so this is just pushing him harder to find something else. He’s really frustrated right now though because one of…

This is happening at my husband’s company right now, and it’s tearing the place apart. They were bought by a huge conglomerate a couple years ago and now there’s hushed talk suggesting they could be shut down at pretty much any moment. There have been multiple vague “we’re moving forward for the betterment of the…

This picture will never not crack me up.

When I was younger one of my grandma’s favorite restaurants had a cheeseburger fries and salad combo that was the greatest thing ever. I’m one of those weirdos who really loves salad, but it’s hard to say no to fries with a big drippy burger, so it was perfect.

He did call 911 though. After being choked to near-unconsciousness, brutally beaten, and being threatened with death, he still managed to get to a phone and call 911. If you want to question the timeline, question why the police didn’t respond sooner to Mack’s earlier 911 call; the one she placed while he was being…

From what I’ve read, it seems they turned down the amnio for fear of miscarriage. Without the amnio they had no way of knowing anything. In that situation there’s little you can do but hope for the best and, if you’re so inclined, to pray.

Ooh and “I was a choice”

Wait, I thought it was the woman’s fault for not being there to catch it in her vagina.

One of the (many, many) things that drove me out of my last job was my general manager’s constant insistence that I and the other female department manager “be nice” and “focus on the good”. I was hired to whip my department into shape and make serious changes; I can’t do that by being “nice”. I was managing a guy…

Mary there wants nothing to do with that baby.

Um, I like it when my husband walks around in just his underwear and think he looks sexy as hell. You’re pretty obviously not attracted to men, so maybe you shouldn’t be speaking with such authority on this subject.

What about putting a woman in Springsteen’s place in that’s video? Put her in a snug white shirt and jeans, smear her with grease. Sexy, right? No more or less intentionally so than he was.

Right? My c-section couldn’t have taken more than...a dozen staples? Tops? That’s not a tiny incision and 50 is a lot fucking more.

Or she was in shock from a fairly grievous injury and someone else should have been looking out for her. I’ve been there. It fucks you up.

Oh christ, I’ve gotten that one too, but it was after telling some pushy religious “charity” I wasn’t interested in donating. “Would you like to discuss this with your husband when he gets home?” Fuck you.

Did they think she was going to try to escape en route? Just, like, waddle away real quick while they weren’t looking? Besides requiring effort from them, what the hell possible reason was there to not even have her looked at?

Didn’t it even turn out one of the first kids Madonna adopted from Africa wasn’t really put up for adoption by his parent? I seem to remember a story about that.

My mom broke her back sledding. Snow tubing, actually, which she assumed would be safer. Spun around backwards and hit a fallen tree. It was horrific; I saw the whole thing from the top of the hill.
