Yours did it too?

Hmm. Never knew any other cats did this.

I had a cat that, after hours of sleeping, perhaps even days, would simply walk over to the nearest door archway, stare straight up at it for a few moments and then begin to wail at it. Suddenly, as though on springs, she'd rise up about 3-4 feet into the air, straight along the side of the archway, straddling it with…

Nobody from that film looks the same way because it's from 1999. Holy crap does that make me feel old...Good film, though.

Of course it is not okay to point out the imperfections of men any more than it is for men to point them out on women. I am not sure why you are directing this comment towards me. All I did was post a current photo. What happened after that was no fault of mine.

May I present Jay Mohr?

HelenBackAgain is right. Lena isn't exactly in the Paris Hilton money department, but it wouldn't surprise me if they went to the same schools and traveled in familiar circles. Lena came from money and found success partly because of her lineage. It can be viewed as crass of her to talk of looking for a bargain, as…

If this new trend was gender neutral and the boys were doing it at their parties too, I would have much less to say about it. Did you even bother reading this thread, dear?

You might be wrong about this.

Yes, you are right.

She does Kim better than Kim does Kim.

I am replying to ungrey you so that people can see that you called me "a dick" (which was kind of a dick move on your part.)

Yes, that is normal and we all have done that. This is referring to the professional spa parties with rules and methods and stuff. Not child's play/

I had a friend at whose house I would sleep over often. I just LOVED their breakfasts. Dad made homemade strawberry jam that they would serve. Fresh rolls. French press coffee. Yogurt. Juice. It was amazing. It was all French-inspired, since those were the grandparents origins. They were so European and elegant.

But you were adults. Grown adults who were getting pampered on a rare occasion. That is quite different from little girls being basically indoctrinated into our beauty regiments.

They are into it because they are taught to be. I personally hate getting pedicures because I am stuck there and they tickle and I get restless even with reading material. Plus, I get the liberal guilt about the poor squatting person breathing in fumes all day and hurting her back doing it. I just like the results. I…

Sure, and there is a massive difference between casual dress-up in mummy's closet and hiring a professional person to come in and give the littlest girls mini-makeovers. I will never not find it reprehensible.

Mostly I have an issue with how completely gender-biased it is, not to mention how pageant girl in-training. I have pictures from a party I had at that age and it was all girls but it could have been a boy's party for how gender-neutral the food and games and stuff were. None of this tea and crumpets shit. We ate…

No thinking woman would ever be okay with it. The mother in question happens to be quite a limited thinker, but there were other girls there too. What were the problems with the other mothers that their brains went missing? Where were their brains?!

I was so upset when an acquaintance posted the photos of her daughter with her little feet in those foam separators that I almost lectured her right on her own facebook feed. Thank goodness for restraint, but I really really wanted to.
