Do these people not watch Dr. Who? We all know what lives on Mars. And it's not good.

Yeah, I've tried those sticky strips, and they do help a bit. The problem is that they start to slide around after a while though and stop working especially if you have to walk for any kind of distance. They're fine if you're going car-restaurant-restaurant-car, but if you're going car-restaurant-bar-club-car,…

The problem I have with wedges is that I can't keep them on my feet. They tend to slip off my heels way worse than any high heels I have ever worn. I don't get why, and wish I could wear them.

I just wish that whoever dresses Octavia Spencer and Queen Latifah would start dressing my girl, Melissa McCarthy. She at least needs to go to lunch with those two fab ladies and take notes on how to dress.

Not sure about Russia specifically, but eating dog is very common in a lot of developing nations. It is extremely common in China. It was served to me once there, and I ate it, and I would definitely know that texture anywhere.

He is reportedly from a very religious home. Also, the public's attitude toward gay people has changed radically in the last twenty years or so. I'm 36, and I can still remember when being gay was something shameful and bad that was said about someone in whispers or as an insult. When I was in college in the 90's gay…

Ugh I know! I couldn't stand her. I had never even heard of her until Dancing with the Stars, either.

That sounds super fun. Unfortunately, I think I would miss my husband after all. :)

Olympians tend to do really well. My money is on Aly or Dorothy to win. I miss when I lived with my cool roommie and we used to drink wine and watch DwtS.

Holy shit. I've spent some time in HK, and heard of these but I always assumed people were exaggerating or that they were urban legends. I feel terrible now. These landlords should be tried for crimes against humanity.

Was it at all stringy and slightly greasy? If so, it was probably dog.

When my husband and I registered there for my wedding, we got through the kitchen stuff, then we both just hit a wall. We just couldn't handle any more stuff. It took three separate trips to make it all the way through the store.

Sorry, but that's bullshit. I've spent a lot of time in Hong Kong. The landlords live like kings.

That is messed up. I don't understand how anyone could charge rent for a place like that and still sleep at night. Slum lords are assholes.

She has clearly never been around a bunch of chavs.

Wow, this was amazing! Thank you so much for everything, and for taking the time to write all this out. I really, really want a doula. I live in south Texas, and not in Austin. I am very concerned about my wishes being respected and having the experience I want. I'm hoping I can even find a doula here. Or at least, a…

He is SO BAD ASS. If I were from the UK, I'd want to get on the jury just to hang it. LOVE him! Free Banksy!

Right?! In a perfect world, this would happen.

Thanks. I'm currently at seven weeks.

I'm actually glad I had the surgery - my scoliosis was over 50 degrees on two curves in my spine, and was progressing rapidly. Basically, without the surgery I would have died. However, it's not that common of a surgery, especially old operations like mine from 1989. Most doctors really aren't familiar and don't know…
