Exactly. Heel of hand is to palm as heel of foot is to sole.

Get out of my head!

My only request with this one would be to avoid some of the big, already over-done topics that every parenting site tackles and that end up just driving people into debate/defensiveness mode. No "Why breastfeeding is the most important thing 50% of parents can ever do" or "Why letting your kid watch TV or eat Cheetos…

Also the sticks bend. They truly are inferior in every way - and there are only two ways!

I was born in 1981 by emergency c-section, with my mom under general anesthesia. My brother was born in 1982 by planned repeat c-section, and mom had a spinal. Before my son was born, she advised me not to be too scared of an epidural because she really appreciated being conscious right away after the birth instead of…

Not just you.

Yeah, I wondered that too. All I wanted was a salad that didn't have a bunch of extras (bacon, fried onions, wontons, etc.). In the summer, I love the one that has a bunch of fruit on it, the Strawberry Poppyseed Chicken Salad, I think. But lately so many of the salads are higher in fat and lower in nutrition than…

If you're wearing high heels or flip-flops and need to be able to run away, maybe you can do that better barefoot. That's all that one means. If your life is in danger, then active resistance (hitting, kicking, screaming, biting, running) may get you killed. Or they may not. Or you might get killed anyway, who knows.…

Okay, I find your comment humorous because, well, this is clearly a trend on damn near every discussion about societal expectations of facets of women's appearances. But at the same time, I don't see it as being an invalid line of commentary. As long as the guys are simply stating their preference and not trying to…

The uterus and the intestines are both the same type of muscle, so the same hormones that cause the uterine lining to slough off cause many women to have digestive issues too as other commenters have described.

I know. I like it warmer than most people, but if it gets up to 77 in my office (which requires both of my thermostat-mates to be absent) even I will be cranking the AC. Give me a nice 74 with no blowing air and I'm a happy worker bee.

How about an ad that shows two similar looking, not necessarily any particular size people eating. One is eating a generic version of Skittles - little fruit-flavored candies - from a bowl. The other is eating pomegranate seeds from a bowl. Or one is eating an ice cream bar and the other is eating a banana dipped in…

I don't know, I think crying and watching Yo Gabba Gabba is a decent response to a panic attack over student loan debt.

If you really wanted the fritter you would have 1) eaten it sooner or 2) wrapped it in a paper towel and hidden it in your desk drawer.

Here's the problem as I see it. You never know who might know whom. What if your husband's cousin (with whom you are friends on Facebook) has a friend whose wife is pregnant, who had a stillbirth a couple years ago and is now due any day, and it's a small enough community (maybe just one or two hospitals) for cousin…

Some of those kits do have a small package of seasoning that is similar in size to the silica packets. Is it possibl that she bought a different brand or type than usual? I have a hard time believing anyone would really use the silica gel pellets as seasoning. They look nothing like dried spices or flavor powder or…

I think in many situations "Thank you so much!" should be the new "I'm so sorry!" For example, in the context of having dental work done and needing someone to care for you afterwards, saying you're sorry does suggest that you're not worthy of the care and attention. Which can be off-putting to your SO because it kind…

You said it better than I could have.
