If you ever need motivation to give up biking, work in your favorite ER in the city during the summertime.

I agree. I’ve researched this before and found many similar stories. For example, people can lose all their hair suddenly due to stress, either physical or mental.

Don’t go quite there yet. I’ve been chronically ill and have failing teeth from it unfortunately. In my case, severe dry mouth from medications caused extreme tooth decay. If you were on meds for stress, well, that’d possibly do it too. And dry mouth is one of the most common side-effects of prescriptions. If you’re a…

I wouldn’t due to his statement about WOC. I can’t go to bed with an admitted bigot.

Eh, stress is a pretty magical thing that can destroy all manner of health.

I worked full-time and completed a master’s degree in two years. After graduation I had hair loss, I was diagnosed with Celiac disease (requires the genetic predisposition, a diet with gluten, and a traumatic event to activate it), anemia…

I had a bike wreck last weekend. The entire front of my body skidded across the pavement. I had scrapes on every part of my body that wasn’t cover with clothing including my face. My knee is so bad I’ve almost blacked out from the pain a few times and my hand is broken. I don’t remember much from the accident, except…

What confuses me is that clearly she hasn’t had her own teeth for decades — those were veneers, meaning only the little stumps they attached to were left of her teeth. What did she shear off? What does “shear” mean in this context? Were they woolen, like after I eat spinach?

My dad’s a smoker with bad teeth due to ‘60s orthodontia, and, as an added bonus, he grinds his teeth in his sleep. He had one of his near-the-front teeth (incisor? Bicuspid? The one right next to your front teeth) just pop out while he was sleeping one night. He looks really classy without his bridge. And my brother…

Elle points out that Kylie Jenner–matured into the permanent state of perfected drowsiness endemic of reality TV stars–also made the list. She tweeted the news first thing, at noon PST:

Friends getting cancer, mold in the basement, busybodies causing job threatening drama, topped off with my neighbor just now bringing over something in a flower pot to show me and explaining she heard a scream and saw a rat murdering a chipmunk. THE BLOODY DEAD CHIPMUNK WAS IN THE POT. I should have no fucking teeth.…

My mother had a very stressful event in her life (kidnapped). After the whole ordeal was over including his trial, most of her teeth fell out. She was so stressed her gums basically loosened, the teeth came out. It even effected her skin texture she looked older than her age, about 10 years older after it happened.…

For years Demi was touting a VERY restricted ‘health’ diet so I’m suspecting this may be due less to stress than to poor nutrition.

You’re not wrong, but there is a difference between killing an animal for food and killing an animal for a bad analogy.

The real victims in the OJ saga were all the poor USC fans. Is there any respect for the sanctity of the Heisman Trophy anymore?

Maybe she just plays one on TV. In her mind, it’s the exact same thing.

Lord help us if Jim Caviezel ever gets accused of any serious crime.

Not sure what’s more stunning, that she actually believes any part of this, that she had the temerity to commit these words to print, or that a newspaper would actually publish them.

The real crime committed by Charles Manson is that he ruined the hippie dream. I have no idea why society in 1969 / 70 had to relive the death of that dream with a long, drawn-out criminal trial just because a district attorney thought some “murder victims” inconveniently got in the way of some knives.

He has confessed in a secular confessional to betraying the trust of his wife, and perhaps of the women who considered him a mentor before he moved them to another spot on the sliding scale of human interaction. 

I mean, this seems like common goddamn sense. What did she think was gonna happen? Is everyone a fucking idiot now? Am I an idiot? Are we all idiots? Is this life?
