My officemate has a 24 year old roommate who was being sexually harrassed by her boss and didn't even know it! My officemate had to point it out to her. They work in a medical office that does outpatient procedures, and the doctors always talk about inappropriate things at the office. They were talking about double…

I come from a long line of peasants, farmers, and factory workers who only recently got into the middle class. And I'll take that any day, knowing we've all worked for everything we have over being born with silver spoons in our mouths.

This is reminding me of an internship I had one summer at a museum. Half the interns were diplomats daughters and the other half were "normal people", as we called ourselves. We would take field trips to other museums in the area, and wound up at the Maidenform Museum. I remembered my grandma worked there to…

I used to eat Cascadian Farm Raisin Bran, but just switched to Trader Joe's Toasted Oatmeal Flakes, which hit all the criteria above. And are delicious without raisins.

It took me a season or 2 of "Chuck" to realize Adam wasn't acting - he was just playing himself on screen.

This. My boss tried to complain taking 2 weeks off to go on a once in a lifetime Greek Islands vacation was to much time at once at a bad time of year, except she lets all the men in the office take 2 weeks at once without any complaint, including one who is going away the same 2 weeks I am, except I booked and told…

Yup. I've had people try to start shit with me for passing them on a sidewalk. Hand to God, I have twice had the following said to me, "Oh, you think you're better than me, bitch, walking faster than me?" Hand to God. I always have my iPod on, pretend I didn't hear them, roll my eyes, and walk faster.

I think Edith Bowman forgot to comb her hair.

They don't give you refunds on pre-school for snow days? That sucks!

Excellent post. I'm maintaining a 70 lb weight loss, and I just started off by walking 30 minutes instead of taking the subway. That, and cutting out sodas were the only 2 changes I tackled first. Saved me money, too! Then I turned to bettering my whole diet, and adding more exercise. I discovered I really liked…

I only scoff at the soft ones. Those look perfectly fine and great for winter.

Seniors in my town have three times driven straight into the front of a Rite Aid. When I go in there, I run in and out as fast as I can just to clear the door. There's some bad door karma going on there.

But you can get cookies! What pisses me off is that every weekend other than that, there's a sports team, or veterans, or some other group out there. There seriously cannot be that many sports teams in my town, or the surrounding towns. There just can't.

Congrats on your loss! I have been keeping off 70 lbs, but have slipped in the last year and gained back 15, which I am working on losing. I just signed up for MyFitness Pal, and it's an eye opener! I can't believe the ignorant comments you got.

Me too - I look like a psychopath about to throw someone into my van and take off with them in my passport photo.

I have been keeping a sleeve of crackers in my purse all winter because on snowy days my one hour commute can take THREE hours.

I almost stopped watching in season 1, I didn't think it was that great. If it wasn't for Zachary Quinto, Lily Rabe, and Sarah Paulsen being in season 2, I might not have tuned in, and that would have been a shame. I think Asylym was the best season. So many amazing performances.

My sister is unfortunately a hipster, and married one, and has lots of hipster friends. All hat wearers. I had to explain to my dad why they weren't taking their hats off at the wedding reception. He pissed off about it.

I saw a recipe once for baking oreos inside chocolate chip cookie dough.

Whoops, I misread your question. I do not know of any rule about last names, but If his name is like, Parker Booth Smith-Jones or something, it makes him sound rich and fancy, so he can probably use it to his advantage.
