Look how happy she is that she can express her anger via temperature:

We had a formal 7pm wedding...white tie, etc. Our DJ (dude we hired, didn't know) brought as his date a woman in a red sequined full-length gown and she is in every photo.

The friend's husband (who we all knew was a creep) who GROPED ME - in very, very intimate ways - at my wedding. In my wedding dress.

America: If nobody's making profit, we don't believe it will work!

I came back from the doctor and said I probably couldn't get pregnant without a lot of help - help I've decided I didn't want. He hugged me, said it was OK, and asked me to marry him. Right there, in the hallway, with a litter box not 2 feet away. I said no.

I dated a Jehovah's Witness in high school, and have since met a few in my day-to-day goings on. They're generally nice people, but my high school ex ended up really creeping me out with his whole 'when I get married, my wife will have to submit to me' schtick. (Granted, some of that could have also just been his…

I said Evangelical Atheists. You know, the ones that try to "convert" religious people to non-religion.

Am I a terrible parent for showing this to my horrified and intrigued 13-year-old daughter?

Same, atheist parents, Protestant-but-actually-Atheist grandparents (They chose a branch that was the least distasteful to them to keep up appearences for the neighbors - oh, the 50s!). I remember being totally baffled as a child when my friend told me she had picked out her confirmation name (I still have no idea…

To quote Elaine Benes, I don't know how you guys walk around with those things.

Men of colour, just like white men, treat women of colour worse than they treat white women. There's just a general idea out there that there are less or no consequences for treating WOC poorly. Doesn't matter if he's Inuit or not. I'd bet money that the same officer would have treated a white woman differently.

That's enough internet for today. I'm out. Good bye y'all, I'll remember you all in therapy.

I would have stuck my fingers in my vagina and painted fuck you with period blood on the wall, but I'm an animal.

A lot of my "Murrican" Limbaugh living relatives were upset about me going to "insert name of Muslim majority country" because of how they treat their women. No one believed me when I said they had 4 months of paid maternity leave.

the one time we have called CPS because of suspected abuse, they needed more details than anyone outside the home would have. The refused to investigate because we could not tell them the exact dates of suspicious injuries (the kid had stitches, we knew what week she showed up with the stitches but couldn't tell them…

Guys, remember the law does word things in ways that neccessarily reflect our vernacular or emotions associated with said crime. "Criminal sexual conduct in the first degree" is a pretty big fucking deal in South Carolina. It's not like they wrote him a jaywalking ticket:

Oof, it was mid-90s, so likely doable but not easy. You can, I'm sure, still find copies of the CD on eBay or Amazon or something, but you'd need to be able to find a Win95/98 box or run it in Win95 compatibility mode from Virtual PC.

You know who is great about dietary restrictions? Whole Foods catering. We used them for our wedding. I have numerous restrictions due to my migraines, several vegans were attending, and I had a guest who is a very sensitive coeliac. They accommodated everything & no one got sick. They also delivered hot food hot. It…
