I seem to easily wander off track lately… so here I go again. I hate the idea of giving money (or gift cards) as a gift. I have young family members (teenagers) who always ask for it and I just refuse - it feels so impersonal and takes all the fun out of gift giving. I love Christmas shopping and giving gifts (I…

Sorry, slightly off topic, but it is so annoying that we spend our whole lives being told that we can get pregnant just by fooling around with a penis near our vaginas (no actual intercourse) or even just the first and only time you do have sex (or that one time you miss taking the pill). We spend our whole lives…

Yep, except most of the people I went to school with got married right out of high school and most (I'd say 90%) were divorced a few years later.

Honestly, I freaking LOVE MM - Like she is actually one of my top fave actresses of all time - and I think she's gorgeous… but this picture does not do her justice. She looks so washed out! Maybe just too much flash in the picture, IDK. Rebel Wilson looks way better here.

Just out of curiosity, what is the difference? I honestly don't know - not trying to be snarky. I always thought a nanny was just a full time babysitter that (sometimes) lives with you.

I was wondering this too. We looked into getting a nanny once (in Canada) and while the wages weren't very high (between 600-1500/month), that always included fully furnished room & board, and food. The lower end of that also usually required a car, which they were entitled to use at their leisure on their off time…

You should really read the whole thread before commenting. Not one of the things you've mentioned hasn't already been said.

She was in Swim Fan like 10 years ago… also, that one about the kids who try the steal the SAT or something. Perfect Score I think. Plus a few TV shows. I'd say she's about the same level as Laura Prepon - been in quite a few things, but not enough that you might not have heard of her unless you watched those…

Meh. Agree to disagree I guess. I went onto iTunes after her new album got rave reviews and listened to samples of most of it… it sounds pretty much like what I expected from her.

I am probably close to her size, and I can guarantee you, it has nothing to do with her thighs and arse and all to do with how the skirt is cut (or how it fits - it looks like it's clinging far too much around the thighs - might just be the wrong size). Or it's just an awful skirt. If I saw myself in a picture and…

I also think Taylor Swift is really talented, and Adele, although I'm not a huge fan for the same reason - most of her songs sound the same. But there's no denying that girl's got pipes.

While I don't like all of Miley's music, I do think she has an amazing voice and also takes risks. While she has a distinct voice, she is constantly pushing herself to try new things, so I never get bored of her music like I do with some of these pop stars. Notably, Beyonce, Katy Perry, Britney, and some of the…

Yeah but from what I remember, it wasn't that they focused on her… it was that her manager (I think her mom or dad) made sure that everything was about her, from interviews to how they were staged for photos. As a teenager, I remember thinking she seemed so shallow, like she would step over her friends to get ahead,…

That's what I was getting at I guess… they didn't really alter her size that drastically (I've definitely seen way worse). They more or less just smoothed out her bunched skirt and shirt, which isn't terrible to me. That skirt is awful. Why is it bunched up like that?!

Oh I didn't even notice that. Yes, I think you're right. That makes sense. Totally needless still - she looked great.

I don't know. I honestly don't think this is one of the worst photoshop jobs I've ever seen. Boosting the colours are pretty common (hair, shirt, skin) - I do it all the time with my photos just because it makes the subject pop out more. Outside of that, they just smoothed out her shirt and skirt to make her look…

My thoughts exactly. Whenever I meet someone with a cute baby my initial response (no matter what their colour or their baby's colour) is, oh so cute! Is he yours?

But hey… plus side is, now I will never ever do that if the mother is any colour other than white. The things you learn are offensive...

I didn't even finish your comment before I liked it. I stopped in the middle laughing and knew it needed to be done. Bravo.

Just because I feel like it needs to be said… I've never been a huge Beyonce fan. I liked Destiny's child, but back then I thought she was this huge fame whore who didn't like to share the spotlight. It was supposed to be a group, after all.. not Beyonce & the pussycats. Since then she's exploded in popularity, but…

I kind of need to know what the bleeped out word was in the racial insult he supposedly used. Bitch? Bastard? Butt head? Was it just the word black that makes it racist? Or did the second word have some horrible racist connotation that made it worse? I don't know why, but I need to know!
