He's great in everything I've seen him in, and I will watch stuff because he's in it (see: Chronicle, which was actually pretty underrated). And he grew up NICE.

A little, but he's still not as famous as he deserves to be.

I love him. I hope this movie rockets him to superstardom. (He's kind of in an Anthony Mackie place: super talented but should be much more famous than he is.)

If I ever have a daughter, Jordan is on my short list of names. I think it sounds strong, and it passes my Supreme Court Justice test. "Supreme Court Justice Jordan Lastname" sounds good.

I have a few friends who are trying to get into fitness (e.g. doing Couch to 5K), or who are pursuing certain fitness goals (e.g. open-water swimming for charity) and I like reading their updates because they get so excited about the milestones they hit and they never lecture or put others down; they just note their…

I have actual underpants that cover more than that.

I would watch the FUCK out of any movie in which they played lovers. It could be about the history of paint and I would still watch it.

I work in the 'burbs and often see roaming bands of kids on my commute home (just saw a group of about 10) but they're usually teenagers. But yeah, when I was a kid, before I was old enough to work summers, I'd be like "Going to J's house!" and my parents would tell me to be home by dark and that was that. J and I…

Right? I'm getting long-term care insurance. If there are people in my life who want to care for me if I live to be old, so much the better, but I'm getting some coverage. Go to a nursing home on Christmas and then tell me adult kids take care of their elderly parents.

I need that lipstick right this minute.

... Ouch.

My mom's from Brooklyn - Crown Heights and Flatbush, went to Erasmus Hall. Her grandfather immigrated there from Trinidad in the '20s. Every so often one of her colleagues will talk about how their kid has "discovered" Brooklyn and she gets really annoyed. When I'd go hang with my grandmother and other relatives on…

Yeah, I could probably get away with wearing stuff from Forever 21 but I don't shop there because their shit falls apart after one wearing. (I'm mad that the cute cardigan I bought at H&M a couple of months ago got a run in it on the second or third wearing, but I have other stuff from there that I've had for years.)…

I use Neutrogena Dry Touch on my body but it doesn't play well with my oily skin. I use Aveeno Positively Radiant moisturizer with SPF 30 and Iman's line of BB cream with SPF ... 15, I think (I'm black, caramel complexioned) and my skin is still oily but doesn't break out. (Blotting papers and I are here.) But I…

Yeah, this grammar, or lack thereof, hurts each and every one of my feelings. And she clearly has no idea how stupid she sounds.

My ex's best friend married a woman from a dry Southern county in said dry county, but no one was really into the dry wedding thing (neither side abstained from drinking regularly, especially his West Coast family and friends). The wedding party had flasks and were topping everyone off. It was kind of hilarious to see…

Agreed, but I am firmly in the "food and drink must be free" camp. I went to a lovely beer, wine, and champagne-only wedding, but I oppose cash bars. You wouldn't have a dinner party at home and ask guests to cough up $6.00 if they want a glass of wine.

Exactly. Said it before and I'll say it seventy-'leven more times: you don't plan to make your money back on a wedding. You do it because you want to share an occasion with loved ones, not to make out like a bandit.

I'm black and I love to swim, as does my entire family. I grew up in Philly, from an upper-middle-class background - no pool (yard was way too small for that) but money for swimming lessons for me and my brother. The hair thing is kind of a thing for me in that it takes some doing to get my natural hair* together…

Right. I mean, if you keep attracting/going for bad partners, you might want to take a look at that (Friend's Husband has a friend who is a great catch but is single at 40ish - he meets lots of women but they usually have serious issues. He ends things when the craziness is revealed but then goes and finds other women…
