Two people you don't know went to Ireland and you feel strongly enough about it to post something online. That says more about you than it does about them.

That's effing ridiculous. They have money. They got married in Europe. They went on their honeymoon in Europe. They're doing normal stuff. Other people are reporting on it. None of that is about status or desirability or how you're supposed to feel about it. You're projecting because you just don't like them.

You have to watch to the 2:10 mark.

So she was against it before she was for it? Profiles in courage!

Why should she or anyone be obligated to wear underwear? That's a pretty bizarre takeaway from this. Almost as bizarre as the idea that the "big deal" in this situation is the extent to which her body was featured in photos that shouldn't have been taken and published rather than the publishing of the photos

I don't think JayMo is wrong... I just don't think there's a universal "right" either. You deal with the conditions that present themselves and adjust as they change. If you're sitting at a table with four women and you hit it off with two of them, they were both there for that. If you're in a bar and you have two

Ultimately, I try to talk to all of them. I generally have more items on my agenda than just finding "someone I'd hit it off with" since hopefully I'll hit it off with more than one person in any group of five. And sometimes it's fun to "fire for effect" too.

I see that logic. I just haven't seen that in practice. If somebody wants to get with you, they're probably not gonna care all that much that their friend thinks she "claimed" you. Or that you invested in their friend when you could've been talking to them. I had a #2 that I'd made eye contact with but barely

This is beautiful... The only reason you could come up with for someone jogging with headphones on is because they're afraid to be alone with their own thoughts? Really? You couldn't conceive of the idea that millions of people find it easier to do things that aren't totally pleasant when they have something to

I don't even pick the second one. I pick someone who is neither first nor second and try to immediately establish a rapport with her. My theory has always been, if you hit it off with the friend in the group who's there because it's her birthday or she knows the bartender or whatever, then it doesn't look like

"I just don't eat enough Winter Melon to get my jizz to taste like a strawberry parfait."

I somehow made the laugh I stiffled sound like a sneeze, so I got four people to bless me for laughing at that. We both win!

I'm with you until that very last part. Provided he lives in a moderately large city, he'll find at least one person who goes absolutely wild for it. Granted, he'll probably find 1,000 more people who are completely turned off by it. Do you ever read Savage Love? At least once a quarter, Dan Savage will run a

I'm confused. You're pregnant (Congratulations!) and planning on breastfeeding. You were in for a related doctor visit and, during that visit, were given a brochure on breastfeeding and talked through it. And you came away from that conversation feeling like you were being steamrolled because someone advised you

*Shrugs*

You really gave 110% with this comment...

Weird. I'm a fan and I don't feel "robbed" by not seeing a team that doesn't seem to have an identity or any real interest in playing together get beat by a team that other "fans" consider boring because they have an adaptable system that encourages fundamental basketball. But thanks for the #ProTips!

I always find the need to crap on NASCAR in order to prop up other racing circuits to be a bit pathetic. This isn't deep dish v. New York-style. This doesn't have to be either/or. And you're almost certainly more likely to find someone who can develop an appreciation for both than someone who liked one, read a

All of that sounds really good. Even number years and Houston's head-to-head record against San Antonio and who said what to whom. Compelling stuff. Please point me to the website where I can get the schedule for Houston's remaining games. Because I can find the next San Antonio game in about 30 seconds.

A) Only your parents think you're so special that they get mad when you do something wrong and they have to point it out. I'm not your father.

B) You're right. The Heat have never beaten the Rockets in the playoffs either. The Rockets don't stick around long enough to stay in the playoffs, which is a shrewd

Assuming everything you just typed is true:

Their alpha played more minutes in the playoffs and averaged fewer points, steals, and assists while shooting lower FT & FG percentages. Good stuff.

Is it "within the realm of possibility" that the Rockets could've given the Spurs a series? Sure. Just like it's "within
