True story: I didn’t have to guess. My 5th grade teacher did this as a classroom exercise. Everyone had to list all of their friends in the classroom, out loud, in front of everyone. She had previously pulled me aside and said she was considering recommending me for a program for kids who have no friends to be friends…

It's a difficult subject, because the opposing side really and truly believes there's no difference between a fetus and a child. Imagine if we lived in a dystopian future where parents could bring their children, let's say between 2 and 6 years old, to a center - because the child had a physical or mental disability…

It's easier if you drown the roosters and just keep hens. The neighbors complain less too, except when their kids wander over at drownin' time and want to watch. If you need more chicks you can just mail-order them. #truefacts

Have you tried one of those yogurts that makes you poop? I'm on depo, so I haven't gotten a period in years, but I tried one of those yogurts (once a day for two weeks) and started spotting. Which was very upsetting, and I immediately stopped eating the yogurt, but it made me realize how closely those two systems are…

I would love gift cards to Michaels, Joanns, Fire Mountain Gems (someone else already mentioned), Etsy, etc. I mean, I'm always working on something but you can't guess what it is and buy materials for it. You just can't. However, if you must get me something, I really appreciate other people's crafts too. So I'd love…

I think you misread: That is exactly what Ms.Andry is saying. She's speaking as a Canadian, being surprised the US is not further behind you.

I got a sext from someone I don't know. It was a woman, full-frontal nude from the neck down, and a long love letter in Spanish. I wrote back "wrong number," then deleted the original message. But seriously, who sends naked pictures of themselves without double-checking the number? Or maybe she was nervous and…

I think you're exactly right. I remember when I was 9 and commenting to my Dad that it was going to be weird, with this election no longer having Reagan be the president because he had been president my entire life, so the change seemed scary. I knew absolutely nothing about political policy, but I knew that change…

Those memes seriously fail on the "awareness" thing. I'll also post a message about, "this is what breast cancer awareness looks like. Breast cancer is not cute. It is not sexy. It is not diagnosed with a wink and a nudge. It is a real disease and it kills women and men." etc. etc. I really don't have a problem with…

Ooh, that's a tough one. Every time one of those stupid Facebook memes comes up ("tell us your birthday, but make it sound like your due date! To freak out boys! Also, breast cancer!") I post a link to the SCAR Project. If I were in your position, I would probably print out some photos and hang those around my desk.

Oh, yes! If you're in the LA area and need a hand surgeon, let me know. We're not best buddies or anything, but I'll be going back to him once I get insurance again. (Yep, tumor #3! I just keep winning.) I also know a really good hand therapy office. I have 90% use of the finger, which, considering I know sign…

You may have been to my first hand surgeon! Our "visits" consisted of him dictating letters to the insurance company while I sat awkwardly across from him. No chance to ask questions, etc. When the (non-cancerous) tumor came back, I found a new hand surgeon.

How does it compare with the Muse? Is it worth the extra $70 for one that allows you to change the aperture (even if you have to use a little magnet wand to do it)?

All of this has happened before, and all of this will happen again.

Or Bella Swan.

I need a thumbs up button. Is anyone working on that?

Except it kind of sounds like he didn't tell her he was buying tires. He noticed the treads were low, bought new tires, and then got upset when she didn't notice. And to be honest, I probably wouldn't notice. I don't spend that much time noticing my tires. But if I did notice or he told me, yes, I would be very…

How did you know?!? At the exact moment you were posting this, I was at Joann's, fingering fabric and trying to decide if I should make my own dress for a wedding I'm attending. (The answer is no, or at least, not yet, because the wedding isn't until next summer and they don't even have a venue or time of day yet. But…

This used to be the belief. Like, it was accepted in courts of law that if a woman got pregnant, she couldn't have been raped. Then we got, like, science and common sense and stuff, but apparently not everyone was paying attention. So don't worry about giving them ideas, because they were already there.

When I saw the first picture, I thought, "that's odd." When I saw this one, I suddenly realized that we were looking at a very, very specific type of fetish porn.
