The best reason to not vote for Anthony Weiner is that he's actually only 13 years old. That's the most logical explanation for his behavior.

This is the same network where an interviewer hassled a professional scholar of world religions for being a Muslim and writing about Jesus. In other news, water is wet.

According to my mom, my Italian-born, lapsed-Catholic maternal grandparents believed that the plants would die if the women in the household entered the family vegetable garden during their periods (this would have been in the 1930s-1940s). A mild slight compared to what the aforementioned women in India are going

My husband of 25 years is way hotter than me. I'm carrying around 25 extra pounds; he's never been overweight. He's on the tall side of average; I'm short. He has more attractive facial features, better teeth, and much better hair than I'll ever have. He can buy and wear clothes designed for men half his age, while I

Holy crap — terminal alcoholic liver disease at 34? I mean, I love a glass of wine or a cocktail, but this sounds like the level of drinking that's associated with throwing up your toenails nightly, not with getting a mild buzz on before dinner a couple of times a week. For someone so alcohol-addicted that her liver

It's simple. The idiots who would like to keep the country in a permanent state of race war are the ones shrieking that the President, by acknowledging the destructiveness of racism, is calling for a race war.

Call me a softie, but I really don't want the kids who serve up my greaseburgers and fries to keel over with heat exhaustion in the process.

I haven't had a problem with nasty towel smells since I started using oxygen bleach (the kind that's advertised as color safe or all-fabric bleach) in the wash. It's chemically different from regular bleach — instead of sodium hypochlorite, it contains diluted hydrogen peroxide. I also rinse everything twice, since

Which is as it should be!

Our front loader never rinsed as well as a top loader, even when we ran it multiple times. Maybe not a problem for some, but for a family member with skin sensitivity to detergent residue, it was not a good thing. We stick to top loaders now.

Wow, just read her short Wiki bio. So sad that after surviving so much danger, she was apparently killed by an obsessed stalker.

Just two words: Bottle service!

If you consider your wedding to be a money-making endeavor, you're fucked up.

I might be bad and eat something with that much fat in it, although I'd probably feel unwell afterwards. But 3700 mg of sodium? My mouth hurts just thinking about it.

I've never personally encountered judgmental vegans or vegetarians. I have seen other online evidence of a few people who claim that if you're a former vegan, you were never vegan to begin with (similar to the attitude of some straightedge people towards those who no longer claim edge). Conspicuously missing is the

As I've gotten older, the psychoactive effects of alcohol on me have decreased markedly; I get much less buzzed on one or two drinks at 56 than I did at 26. Interestingly, this has had the effect of making me drink less. I still think that wine, beer, and cocktails taste really good, especially with food, but I'm

There's a lot of shit intersecting here. Lousy economy, consumer culture, and the general societal attitude that a college degree and two bucks will get you a cup of coffee, while hooking up with one of the rich guys who bought up everything on the planet and shut you out of the job market will get you a nice

Is there such a thing as a pick-up artist who has actually ever picked anyone up?

Even the nastiest tap water has always tasted much better to me than the bottled stuff. Which is interesting, since the bottled stuff is almost always municipal tap water.

I really miss living in Canada. I'm generally a 12 or 14 petite, and many of the standard mall clothing stores in Ontario carried my size. Far from haute couture, but I live strictly in the jeans to business casual range, and I had no trouble finding reasonably priced clothing for a short, non-thin,
