Also, ponies!

My sister's 27-year-old boyfriend lives of pizza rolls and Dr Pepper. I hate him for several good reasons but the food thing really tops it off.

One of my major dealbreakers is table manners. If you chew with your mouth open or do that thing of putting more food in before you've chewed and swallowed what's already in there, it's never going to work and we should break up immediately.

Except that it helps in verifying someone's identity in a variety of contexts.

Hmmm... with science now saying that smelling farts is good for you (whatever that was about), the time for shart perfume may have come.

I wonder that too. Celebrity perfumes often sell like mad but WHO is buying them? I never hear anyone say "Oh thanks, it's Curious by Britney Spears" or similar.

Sure, a woman gets relaxed, things loosen up, et voila!

All it did was make my hair look gross and give my scalp big sore pimples.

The no poo method is BOLLOCKS.

Sure, but Madeleine keeps calling them button-downs.

These are not button-down shirts. These are shirts with buttons, sometimes a lot of buttons, but not button-down. Button-down refers to the points of the collars having buttons and it's generally a menswear thing.

Yeah, I have known some of those 3-hour H&M shopper-travellers. And worse. And when it's all over they end up with... a white t-shirt. WE COULD HAVE GONE TO THE LOUVRE YOU COW.

I find dinner to be the most awkward time on a trip. That's when I notice I'm alone and yippee! so do many of the restaurant staff and other diners.

I've done almost all my travelling alone because if I waited until someone else was ready/had the time & money I'd never go anywhere!

No, the crying was the best sound, because he didn't know if the baby was OK and he was probably freaking out a bit.

OK that was breathtakingly naive. For one thing, the only way to avoid this is to avoid her. She's not going to learn about boundaries at 87 years old and she certainly won't suddenly start respecting them the moment I put them down.

I saw but I didn't think it was very good. Great visuals and that, but it asked for too much suspension-of-disbelief about the logistics and sciencey stuff.

Ugh, I hate all this advice you're getting that the real issue is some unresolved psychological issues that you may not even be aware of. FUCK THAT. Plenty of people who are nothing BUT unresolved psychological issues still manage to find someone to put up with their shit.

Probably it's too late for this post to get seen but anyway, just to vent: I fucking cannot stand my grandmother. I am visiting her this weekend and this may be the last visit that lasts more than a couple hours. She is fucking HIGH MAINTENANCE. Very self-centred, constantly attention-seeking, inconsiderate,…

Berger's apartment was fab? Wasn't it just a studio? A nice studio but still.
