@ruedebuci: Clearly she's trying build her bouffant so high that eventually she can just crawl up into it when she needs to hide.

@richcreamerybutter: I'm a native English speaker and yet, letting one rip at an opportune moment never fails to illicit an "And that's how much you love me." from my Swedish partner.

@Sophie: Having been exactly where Cynthia is and faced exactly the same kinds of lame questions Oprah asked, I'm also very much in the "if you need to label me, choose the one that makes YOU comfortable" camp. Your's is perfect..."a lady who's open to all things good." With your permission, I'm going to officially…

@DaDuckster: It's a TREND? Oh crap, now I'll never be able to get my Swede to stop wearing brown shoes with black slacks. *shudders*

Hang on a sec...Dooce has a child?!

Like many who have commented, I was forced into Brownies by my mother, who I suspect only signed me up to avoid the wardrobe duel at least one morning each week. I quit as soon as I was allowed, which sadly was not until a year after I'd graduated from the ugly brown uniform to the ugly green one.

Must be nice to be able to just roll out of bed and hop on a flight in your nightgown. Though in my frequent daydreams about the divine Ms. AJ, she usually sleeps naked.

Renee Z. ALWAYS looks like she smells garbage. I wonder if that's her sex face, too? Oh crap. I'm so sorry I went there...

Toni Collette: The Aussie I'd most like to have a bottomless cup of coffee with!

I once went "au natural" for the better part of a year at the request of a European boyfriend. While I adjusted pretty easily to leaving my legs alone...the pit hair DROVE ME CRAZY after awhile! It reaches a certain length and then just tickles.

The Brits can't possibly apologize enough for unleashing Posh Spice on us. Between her and Katie "Jordan" Price, I think historians can wipe the Revolutionary War off the books and call it even.

Reason #3,947 to love your Mac!

Oops...that's what I get for clicking a link in the article while in the middly of writing a comment. What I was trying to say was...

Damn, I'm impressed. Tell me I can barely tolerate typing text messages on

Damn, I would not have known that was Janeane if the caption hadn't told me so. Then again, I tend to have a bit of tunnel-vision when it comes to Paul Rudd. He hurts me.

I swear that baby is going to be born big enough to walk those dogs on his/her own.

@Hyman Decent: Actually, I've never found anything remotely pleasant about the smell of my own gas. My partner, on the other hand, thinks her farts could be bottled and sold in a Paris boutique. And I'm supposed to be the weird one...

Reason #37 for why I've had a girl-crush on Kate since her debut film...the aptly titled "Heavenly Creatures."

Very clever! I've been avoiding Google's calendar precisely because of its lack of To Do functionality. I may have to give another look!

Gotta admit I sort of admire these women. NOT for their dedication to a "tidy muff", but for their willingness to be videotaped doing something so STUPID.
