I just wish they would stop making incredibly young adults into icons. Your whole personality, your life, your outlook, the things you want, are so in transition at this time that anything she says or does is meaningless. In a few years, she won´t recognize herself in any of this.

She´s making crap decisions, in my…

Wow. What happened to the Saturday Night Social? I always look forward to these since I discovered them not too long ago ... I´ve never seen one sit empty all weekend. Was everybody too busy dealing with awful shit, or having an awesome time, to talk about it?

For me, the brunette grated more than the blonde. Ugh. I made it to 23 seconds.

Her voice is so incredibly nasal and scratchy. (What is that in speech therapy terms ... partial vocal fry? I don´t know.)

::walks away rubbing her ears::

Ha ha. Wrecking ball rodeo. Love it.

The song´s actually not bad. I don´t know why she´s gotta have her tits out and her crack showing for so much of the video, but the song was ... nice.

When I had it done, I had to swallow two different liquids that numbed my throat and mouth.

What is a Knotsy? I am so confused now. LOL

The same thing happened to me once.

I was dating a guy I thought was the cat´s pajamas (early days yet) and I showed his picture to my mom while we were sitting at the kitchen table chatting over coffee one night.

'Oh, he looks so much like your dad!' she said.

I didn´t see the resemblance at all, really, but I…

First of all, I don´t think there´s anything wrong with being stuck in the New Wave 80s if you´re happy with it. Look at how many crazy bitches have been going vintage lately and they ROCK that.

Absolutely not! These are not things that you get to experience only once in a lifetime, although everyone who has been where you are now has felt that way.

Well, I´m glad you´re finding solutions to your health issues. Nothing worse than being surrounded by doctors who don´t know what they´re doing or test results that are inconclusive (not that this happened to you, but it has been known to).

I have often thought of doing the Paleo diet to see if it is really for me -…

Thank you for being you. You make me happy. (As do all the other ladies herein.)

What. The. Hell.

Handshakes are a highly cultural gesture. In the US, it´s considered unpolite to give The Bone Crusher, or a sign of a dominant douchebag, as a lot of you guys are pointing out.

Kraftfoods.com is good for that, as is allrecipes.com — they don´t have space for method of cooking, but you can search for that by adding terms like, 'skillet' for something cooked on the stovetop in a pan, and 'oven baked' for something that goes in the oven. Other terms that are more popular for busy people are…

Whenever this comes up in the media, I´m sent flailing back to my high school days. As girls/young women, we were all suffering from delusions of hideousness, learning how to apply makeup badly for the first time.

I haven´t seen or thought about Fred in a while, because it was the visual equivalent of an ice cream headache. It was cute, though, and I could see why kids would dig it.

Maybe I´m not getting something, but I really don´t understand how Dowd´s ''quote" was anti-lesbian in any way.

Hey, congratulations on working through these issues and taking things one step at a time. I think a lot of people get tripped up when they receive bullshit advice for their problems, especially when it´s from someone we trust. (Evidence: Everything my mother ever said about men and relationships)

Good on you. When you…

I second what CannedPam is saying - Don´t meet at a hotel bar. It might make you feel pressured to continue the date upstairs, even if you decide that´s not really what you want halfway through your martini.

I had a bunch of CL hookups that were like that, just meeting a guy and heading straight back to his place to…
