HA! I was thinking they looked like extras on the set of a Star Wars film.

I like that theory. Parenting is difficult. I feel like I have temporarily given up having a life, and it’s very hard on me. But I’m honest about it. I don’t pretend like everything is Pinterest Perfect. I can see how women who are trying to be America’s Next Top Stepford Wife would take unnecessary offense. They are…

And isn’t it wonderful that somebody was willing to parent you? No, let’s jump all over their backs because they don’t fit a specific dictionary definition.

A good friend of mine was sterilized at 28. She always talks about what a cold heart she has and how much she hates children. But she spoon fed her dog expensive organic peanut butter so she could wrap its cut paw. If that’s not motherly, I don’t know what is.

Ugggghhhhh, this ridiculous, hair-trigger outrage is exhausting to me. Kim probably has done more for her “children” than my father ever did for me, and yet, people don’t get angry when he calls himself a parent. So she’s not a biological parent. Why does it matter? I’m baffled that this is even a story.

For all of the reasons you listed, I don’t believe for one second that politicians want to solve the “immigration problem.” Our country runs on the backs of exploited people. Whenever jerks complain about the “Mexicans” and their “hand outs,” I tell them that if these people were paid a living wage, we wouldn’t have…

I was just thinking, “Why aren’t acid attacks common in the US? Ah yes, because GUNS.” It’s ridiculous to believe we don’t have just as many problems here.

My friend’s mom got her a stripper for her 18th birthday party. I was 16 and hella grossed out, so I left the room while he performed.

The did it with the most recent remake of Battlestar Gallactica. They took this hard-drinking maverick character and turned him into a woman. The fans loved her.

Instead of swapping genders, they could swap perspective within the same story. I’ve been watching The White Queen lately, and it’s so interesting because it covers The War of the Roses, a part of history that is very male dominated. If you aren’t familiar, it’s basically a real life Game of Thrones situation. But…

Starbuck in the original Battlestar Gallactica Series was a man, but they made her a woman in the most recent version. Everyone loved her.

I do, a tiny bit. Something is cool, so everyone copies it. Once everyone copies it, it is not longer cool, and something else is deemed “cool.” Repeat forever. Also, if fashion stayed the same, the fashion industry wouldn’t make any money.

I KNOW. Aren’t eyebrows supposed to be having a moment right now? If having eyebrows goes out of style, I will be in very big trouble.

My dad LOVES to tell this TMI story about my Italian grandmother. After her first child, the doctor told her she shouldn’t have any more children. And for years and years she didn’t. Later, she found religion and had four more, but my dad was really curious to know how she managed that long dry spell. Her response? “A…

You should read “We’re All Completely Beside Ourselves.” I don’t want to spoil it, but it deal with similar themes.

I started teaching in my early twenties, and the lunch lady tried to give me a student’s lunch portion. I don’t think I looked like a ninth grader, but I guess not.

I was in a group of friends in high school, except one of the “friends” kind of hated me and was awful to me. Then she Facebooked me a few years after graduation, asking me how I was, like we had actually been friends. I responded, asking her why she was writing me because she so obviously had never liked me. She then…

Nicholas Holt is the unmitigated best.

“Together they will build a romance expressed entirely in stares.” I feel like we’ve seen this somewhere before...

Everything but the Boy Tears iPhone case. I want that.
