Weirdo is behaving in a completely inappropriate manner. Manager is not doing enough by “working her (under)age into the conversation.” Weirdo knows she’s 17. Weirdo is a-okay with knowing she is 17. Weirdos the world over love dealing with 17-year-olds, because they’re still too young to be world-wise and know how to…

I used to work in a bookstore that made us wear nametags. All of the women used fake names. You could tell when someone was stalking because they’d ask for an employee who didn’t work there, like so:

I was extremely skeptical about that entire section, but then I looked it up on Wikipedia and maybe her dad’s right? (Although the wording she chose is kinda misleading.) Relevant section:

So. Your teeth are comprised of two layers: enamel and dentin. Enamel is the outer coating and dentin is the spongy interior. [I learned this while getting info about teeth whitening, because I’ve had yellow teeth since I was a child and never felt the color was due to “stains” (how can a 5-year-old have red wine…

Soon.

he’s not pretending to be a lawyer.

Coyote Ugly?

Get back in there and deal with him. Minorities don’t have the option of “opting out” of these issues because they’re exhausted. If you are the closest thing to a responsible role model he has, then you are responsible for fixing his attitude before it’s too late. Otherwise he’s going to be one of these cops someday —…

I mostly agree. Plenty of little kids want to play cops & robbers, but lots of other little kids identify heroes as EMTs or firefighters. There are lots of ways to get your action-packed, life-and-death, everyone-adores-me fix. To me, the key distinction between police and EMTs/firefighters is that the latter have no…

you. you get me.

Cersei sent Mace Tyrell to deal with the Iron Motherfucking Bank of motherfucking Braavos. She gives no fucks if he comes back in a body bag. And if he survives the bank, well, Ser Meryn Trant is with him. To, um, help.

A bff is the person who knows exactly what you mean when you get upset and start shouting, “You know I don’t like any of the -eetos!” I love everything about this story.

Or the other direction...in Rekia Boyd’s case, the judge ruled that the only charge brought (involuntary manslaughter) was too lenient because by legal definition, firing a gun into a crowd is so dangerous that it can’t be “reckless”. It was basically, “Silly lawyer, he’s DEFINITELY guilty of murder but you only…

If anything, I’d bet that the racist trolling she endured during The Hunger Games spurred her into greater awareness and determination. She was 14 and had to deal with thousands of tweets expressing their disappointment/disgust/despair/rage/hate that she was black. I’m guessing that was a life-changing experience for…

Start with where we started: the 9/11 Commission Report. The book walks through the events that led to 9/11, mostly with an eye to who the real culprits were and whether the Clinton or Bush governments were responsible for letting it happen. It was published in 2002, so it sort of lays the groundwork for “what we…

BOOM. That contract would also have stated, “Even if we get lucky and the first two embryos result in healthy twins, we will 100% try to get pregnant again with the remaining two embryos, because we created four embryos and they all deserve an equal chance at life.”

This article is my go-to for dealing with the tough stuff.

You did the only thing you could do, which was to trust your gut when you weren’t comfortable. There is NO rule that you have to continue with sex when it changes from enjoyable to unpleasant, regardless of how well-behaved your partner is. And from your version of events, it sounds like you tried to be open and…

I now have an image of a designer trolling the entire show with a black & blue collection and being like, “What? It’s CLEARLY WHITE AND GOLD MUTHAFUCKAS!” And now I’m sad that didn’t happen.
