I was thinking that about her story as well as the trend she says she observed in the boomers. Being too lazy to google any of the woman's work, I wonder if she actually interviewed the family members who cut off the parents or is she jumping to the conclusion that the kids are narcissists based solely on the story…

It doesn't seem like anyone wants to be a real movie star or singer, they just want fame anyway they can get it. Like everyone is chasing a reality show or looking for their own Grumpy Cat.

I wouldn't have noticed if you hadn't pointed it out. Thank you!

Is Hepatitis in too?

I love everything about this. This could be a Project Runway Christmas challenge. Of course, nothing anywhere even close to half this good would have every been made.

I struggled with that decision. Sorry I made the wrong choice. :(

Wow that stinks. Do you think he went into arrears to pay for the piercing? Some people have crappy lucky—it runs in the jeans.

On the up side, her Yelp review notes that the restaurant does indeed have enough vegan options.

Please tell us!

As a child, the only school lunch I ever got excited for was Frito pie. Bring it on Taco Bell. My mouth hole is waiting.

Can McDonald's stay in business just selling fries? That's all I buy from them. What does everyone else buy? Burgers?

I miss Fazoli's!!!!!! But I think they all closed down where I grew up. Probably lost too much on those breadsticks. It was the perfect alternative to Olive Garden since the breadsticks are the only reason to go there anyway.

Is it a class thing to treat a chef as a cook who makes things the way you want it rather than acknowledging and respecting that chefs probably know more about flavor profiles and that their food might actually taste good even though it's different?

Oh I want to see the Hundred Foot Journey. Glad to hear it is good. I forgot we saw Obvious Child. I really liked it, especially since the last movie about abortion that I saw was a foreign film I watched in high school that was super depressing. It was more about the consequences of illegal abortion. Obvious Child…

My husband rented it and I got so mad when he said Adam Levine was in it, but then he said Mark Ruffalo was in it and I couldn't decide whether to be mad or excited. I love Mark Ruffalo. I'm so glad I watched it.

We tried to do this. But my family goes insane and buys a million presents. They refuse to get just one. And then if we only give the kids 1 of the many, they end up asking the kids about all the presents that we didn't give them. Ugh. It's the same thing year after year.

My kids are still little, so they don't really have fun with gift cards. And my family is weird about them. I always tell them I'd rather have a gift card, if they insist on buying me a gift. But they refuse to do it. They don't think it's 'fun' and don't want to receive gift cards even though they never like what I…

Tilda is usually worth the rental fee no matter how bad or weird the movie. But didn't she feel like a Wes Anderson character to you?

Movies I've seen lately that I liked:

I'm on the verge of canceling the gift part of Christmas and calling it family game day. I despise holiday shopping. But I'm afraid there might be a coup or that I'll scar my children for life when they come downstairs and realize Santa only left 1 present for everyone to share.
