this happened at a wedding i went to this weekend and i was so confused. i’d never seen that happen before.

I liked the movie Mongol when I saw it but it was a long time ago, I was in college and cannot be held responsible for that opinion. :)

Try Factory. I literally just got a necklace and two pairs of earrings for like $10-$15 each.

Unfortunately I think your mom’s reaction is what’s going to happen to most people, at least if they’re over a certain age. Some people even think it’s a faux pas to say “no gifts please” because you aren’t supposed to talk about gifts at all even if you’re saying don’t buy them. Oy.

Some people also claim that this is a faux pas because requesting no gifts is mentioning gifts, which you are not supposed to do at all. You cannot win.

I totally agree. At this point I assume everybody has a wedding website where that info will be so that’s where I look for it. But in the olden days (15 years ago lolz) where your mom was just supposed to like call people and tell them you’re registered at Macy’s? That’s pretty bullshit.

I think it’s becoming more common but it’s definitely controversial. I personally did not do that because I actually needed the home stuff (pretty young and all our stuff was of the “just graduated college with no money so all my shit’s from Walmart” variety), but I know it’s becoming more popular for older, more…

The accepted thing to do is to not really TELL guests you expect them to buy gifts, but to construct a registry of things for if (really, it’s when) they ask what they can get you. Especially if you have a bridal shower (vs. just the wedding where people easily give cash), the registry makes things easier for…

i am american and all-too-familiar with EasyJet after they fucked me and stranded me a Heathrow with no flight once. have you ever tried to buy a plane ticket AT the airport?

WTF mascara is not a fucking liquid. i’m sorry they screwed you like that.

can you share what purse organizer you got? the only thing i don’t like about my Le Pliage is that it needs a key leash. other than that it’s great.

i’ve witnessed moms at the nail salon tell their little girls they can only have “little girl” colors - no red, nothing dark. it’s baffling to me.

YES! this exactly! Now looking back it makes so much sense why Bruce always had such a crappy style...she wasn’t Bruce. And it makes it all the more tragic knowing that Kris KNEW this and she still did things like make fun of his longer hair and make him get a cut, etc. Knowing what we know now that’s just so sad to…

For moisturizer I use Clinique moisture surge intense at night and it’s great. I just rinse with water then in the morning. Then use Cerave under makeup since its lighter.

We had newer and older country. Hank Jr., Tom T. Hall, Merle Haggard were the dominant ones.

Even if something is legally not actionable that doesn't mean you can't complain about someone being shitty to you and be justified.

CHEE-kah

Chyka has the absolute best hair of all the housewives on all seasons. She also seems really nice?

Have you read Lindy’s piece on this very subject?

i’m pretty anti-gun, and it doesn’t change my mind about Sanders. there’s nobody out there favoring any extreme anti-gun measures that i know of. plus, i read his alleged comments about a lot of anti-gun sentiment being rooted in elitism and i gotta say i don’t 100% disagree. i think a lot of liberals on the coasts…
