I'm with you. She was my role model, except for the mouse part. :) And I had a crush on Chip.

Yep. Hydrogen peroxide in particular is awesome. Contrary to the article, it's not quite like bleach, but it will take the color out of some fabrics...but others, it leaves without a trace.

I have to respectfully disagree. Chip 'n Dale's Rescue Rangers blows Duck Tales away. It had Gadget! How can you not love Gadget?

So...why doesn't this snippet address the fact that this is a woman running a functional non-profit being reduced to "lady with tons of cats"?

If you happen to have a guest who has been in your bathroom for awhile, do not stand outside the door waiting impatiently for them to finish. Because if, through the magical anti-gravity of poopy toilet paper, said guest's post-dump clean-up wad ended up on the seat instead of in the bowl, guest will not want to make…

So that explains the president, but why hasn't there been more coverage of the Women's World Cup here on Jezebel? The quarter-finals with Brazil were awesome for the US women, but what was covered here was a few lines about the game with France. I would have loved to hear more about the team. I mean, if we can't…

Seconded. My husband is awesome about doing household chores, but I have to tell him specifically how and when to do it. He doesn't protest or give me grief; he never complains about taking the lion's share of chores every now and then (he works for himself whereas I have a standard office job, so sometimes it's…

That's what my husband and I do. I keep some basic snacks around for when people come over, and I keep non-perishable meals handy (e.g., chili, tuna, peanut butter). Most things we get through Amazon in bulk (even milk in those nifty tetrapaks!). The only item we regularly have to go to the store for is diet soda.

Check out your local credit unions before you settle in on one of these. At least two different credit unions in my area offer 2-4% APY on checking accounts. The catch is that you have to do at least one billpay through them each month, do direct deposit, and also use your CU's Visa check card at least X times (X…

As far as I'm concerned, all of these problems are resolved once you add lime, and I refuse to believe otherwise until they re-conduct studies with the addition of lime. :)

I had posted a comment (that was far more generous and peaceable than she/they deserved) and marked "send me replies to my comment" but not "send me all comments on the blog". They failed to approve my comment but did reply to my comment and approve their own reply. Thus, I'm getting reply e-mails to a comment that…

I'm not even cool with doctors advocating weight loss as a "treatment" given that it is rarely successful in the long term and even if temporary success is achieved, the things people do to achieve it can hurt them worse than the weight itself. I'd rather doctors talked about behaviors rather than appearances and let…

I think the way to talk about it without offending someone is pretty simple.

A bunch of things:

I don't think that is true. You can determine that they don't conform to the norm, but that's all you can say with certainty.

They took it down apparently. I can't get to it now. But, I believe you. I read some of their other posts and it seems to be a pretty crappy and judgey blog in general.

Yep. At a much better Disney fan site, allears.net, there's actually a well-maintained list of the rides that are best for larger riders and which rides have size restrictions or concerns.

The link mentions using coffee grounds in a sock to deoderize your fridge. For Keurig K-cup users like me, just take your used K-cups and drop them into a bowl or other receptacle in your fridge or freezer (the bowl allows airflow while keeping grounds from spilling). Periodically pull out the older K-cups, open the…

It's over $4 a gallon in the suburbs of Chicago. I'm sure it's also that high in Chicago.

Ditto. We saw him in concert a few weeks ago, and I swear, he looks the same as when I saw him ten or more years ago. It's crazy.
