@clevernamehere: But what about escorting the kids? My parents were really paranoid about abduction long before it became a media issue, so they actually followed me around while I biked (which was pretty frequent) quite often. I guess it's partially our current workaholic society too.

Speaking of Clueless....it was on TV the other day...there's a scene in the movie where everyone was at the dining table and instead of chatting with each other, they were on their phones. When the movie first came out, people thought that was completely unrealistic. Today?? A WHOLE DIFFERENT STORY.

@tse-tse-fly: iSheet? If they called it that, there'd be tons of iSh!t jokes.....

The issue here is an age-related/grade level thing more than the definition of oral sex. The collegiate edition is not exactly one that I would want in a fourth grade classroom - Webster's should have a late elementary-middle school edition that is specifically for that age group. Why weren't they using that?

I have leg hair too. I used too much Nair when I was in high school, and it screwed up my leg hairs - it comes in really, really fine and sparse now. Top that off with the fact that East Asian women are generally not that hairy - in high school, I'd use the products like once a month, and now, I shave like twice a…

@applesfruitsmaybe: Someone I know once told me that even if would-be designers want to do specialty sizes, they're advised against (read: brainwashed) it by design teachers. That's why you rarely see plus or petite designers and when you do, the media (who are again brainwashed) rarely promote them. At a recent…

@amazoncowgirl: I think size 16 Australian is about a 12 in the US.

@kemperboyd: Allison Izu sells jeans at 27" lengths. I don't know of any other brand with petites that goes lower than 29" though.

@Seeräuber Jenny: Miranda never dropped out of Big Law to marry Steve. She was working, even while they were in Mexico with Carrie.

@heavymetalkarma likes snow: Sounds like an outfit worn by girls at the University of Toronto around that time (both Greeks and non-Greeks (yes, there are sororities in Canada)). Juicy pants were later replaced by Lululemon pants.

They used this image for a Globe and Mail article about Internet restriction in China. Honestly, people who don't keep an open mind cannot be sophisticated and well-polished, no matter how much money they have. And this goes especially to people who try to force their beliefs onto others.

@fulanita: There are dress codes for dressier events. However, from what my friends have told me, they usually tell girls to "wear comfortable shoes" at schools with sorority houses that are far away from each other.

@TellAllYourFriends: You were allowed to look casual, even for pref? Isn't pref supposed to be dressy?

Dear Diddy/Name of the Moment:

@rodmanstreet: How about Poo Duddy?

@icyblonde: But of course, they're not going to listen...

Dear NBC:

You know, if a western country had a lights-out campaign like the one in Seoul, it could be interpreted as racist. Here, we expect population to increase via immigration. However, no one is saying that about the Korean campaign. Shouldn't well-off Asian countries be more open to foreigners?

Wasn't this an episode of SATC, like way back?

A dress like that works on very, very few women. It would totally drown me if I wore it!
