In elementary school two of my best friends were vegetarians too (one was Hindu, the other was the aforementioned girl from the PETA family), and we were constantly trying to out-vegetarian each other. One time the PETA girl was like, "I can't believe you're using Johnson & Johnson products, they test on animals." I…

"I voted for a girl and I liked it."

Today started off pretty good- I am 1/3 of the way to my donation goal as a St. Jude warrior at the Warrior Dash. I actually managed to reach out to three or four people on FB that I do not interact with a whole lot to have them share my link page. (This is way, way out of my comfort zone). I got quite a few tasks…

I got laid off on Friday so I have no job to go to tomorrow. I have no idea what we're going to do for money, as I'm currently pregnant with number three. Fuuuuck. Someone tell me that there are nice people out there who will hire a pregnant lady... sigh...

Um. The guy essentially sexually assaulted you on the second date and then blew you off because you are a virgin and tried to make you seem like the bad person.

Surgery is never the "easy" way. It is dangerous and requires thought and support. If you really believe your self image and career will benefit, go for it.

Both my mom and aunt got breast reductions in their mid thirties and always say they wish they had done it earlier! They are both pretty tiny otherwise and had started to have back pain. Plus, the expanded clothing options are a huge side benefit.

Oral sex is free and a nearly universally popular gift among men.

I had the same thing happen to me, after I watched the first episode I was too sad to watch another episode. However a few months went by and I started again and I love it now, yes there are parts that are incredibly heartbreaking but some that are just so funny. I just think you have to be in the right mind set…

I haven't had a reduction, but my cousin is about to have one. I have no doubt that it will improve her quality of life, as she has many of the same physical problems you've described. She's your age, too. I say go for it!

I fucking hate people who don't keep their dog on a leash. I was walking my dogs this evening, come up to a yard where out of no where this huge monster comes bounding towards us. My dogs freak and start pulling me in opposite directions, and strange dog is just running around trying to sniff butts. I get all tangled…

I was hoping you'd talk about her :)

It'll do that.

I'm still off from work recovering from my accident, so I took a road trip around the country. 22 days and 5941 miles. I saw my Mom, 2 brothers, 2 sisters, 6 nieces, 2 nephews (10 of their kids) plus various cousins, in-laws, and bunch of friends I left behind in Jersey.

So I treated my kid to some Golden Arches before her dance recital today. This is the box from her Happy Meal. Note what the dog is asking. Am I the only one who thinks this is odd? Matching kids to their parents via skin tone? Oh...and some big ears to distinguish one family. Just wtf.

I didn't spasm at the potty training part, but I did (and will continue to) spasm whenever I encounter a "mommy blog." So self-absorbed, smug, and stupid. I'm glad she fulfilled her dream of doing something her body (and every other woman's body) is innately designed to do, but some of us have less predictable, more…

Mine was pretty similar. I was, conveniently, at the supermarket with mum doing the weekly shop. Nipped out to the public loo, oh hey there Flo! Caught up with mum in the aisles again and when we got to the feminine hygiene products I picked some pads out. Mum just went "ah." I think I shrugged. I already had a…

I was one of them. It was, like I said, a very small class — probably just 28 kids total. There was some teasing that went on on occasion, but we were overall pretty sheltered. There wasn't terrible bullying or anything like that; for the most part we were all friends because if we weren't, who the heck else was…

That's so awesome that those girls protected your friend like that!

This isn't my story but I was there: during gym class in 8th grade, a friend's bloody pad fell out of her shorts as she was RUNNING FROM SECOND TO THIRD BASE. Everyone froze, and once she realized what had happened, she just kept running...all the way down to the school, all the way down to the basement bathroom in…
