Yeah, yeah, wedding rings, traditional family values in commercials, blah blah ....

It is amazing that the cat just let your bird nibble/groom her like that without any aggression. What a sweet video!

I agree with you! I have about a 70% loss overall in both ears and it. Is. AWFUL. I would LOVE to be able to hear normally - hearing aids made me crazy when I was a child so I stopped wearing them, and now I can't afford them. I have to lip-read, guesstimate any missed words, and hope I don't sound like an idiot when…

People. She has people. You and I will never have people to do our hair (unless you count my six-year-old daughter).

I had to stop reading for that exact reason. Reading the first couple of sentences gave me a headache.

Ugh. Unreadable. I couldn't finish the first paragraph. How is this an acceptable entry for this site?

My boyfriend shaves all of his off. He actually removes the majority of his body hair (including chest hair) and even trims down his underarm hair, while I am the exact opposite. I don't do anything with my pubic hair and I only shave my legs/underarms when I feel like making the effort. Hell, he plucks his eyebrows…

You ladies should try Crusader Kings II! As much as I love Civ, CKII is so much more engrossing. My bf and I can lose a whole day playing it. It's amazing.

Actually, fun story about that - my 8 year old son is making me a bologna and cheese sandwich RIGHT NOW. Came out and asked if I wanted one, and everything. Oh, the emasculation of my children.

LOL You're talking about One Million Moms. I'd love to see them get some promotion, oops I mean protestations, going for this show. They did a good turn for Ellen and JC Penny already, after all.

I just want to say that I am very sorry that this happened to you, and I am doubly sorry that your school is not taking the proper steps to protect you. Too many people in the world think that rape is "no big deal" or a "gray area" and they are just wrong. I hope that you get justice.

You go, girl! Make the world better by chastising one puctuation-abuse addict at a time. :D

Haha I'm not sure whether it bothers me more that ellipses are used in place of commas, semi-colons, and periods, or if I'm more disturbed that ellipses are not used in the proper format of "space, then three periods, then space." I have been accused of snobbery on more than one occasion because of this type of…

I literally make a frowny face when I see people use ellipses in place of proper sentence punctuation. There is a time and place for the multi-dot, people!

I'm with you. I have never used a recipe for mash. However, try using sour cream instead of butter. It's much easier to ignore the amount since it's 1 tub vs like 4 half sticks, and it's so creamy and awesome. Sour cream and whole milk. That's the way you make mashed potatoes. Everyone loves mine, even my ex husband…

Yeah, that comment pissed me off. Using 'pussy' or any substitute as a pejorative is just NOT okay.

Why? A 7 or 8 year old child is capable of following (barring disability) multi-step directions and executing processes such as self-bathing, as long as they have been shown how to do so. My son is perfectly capable of bathing himself (he will be 8 in two weeks) and he has developmental disorders. He'll argue with me…

Let's just say you view Kegels with less skepticism after you'd peed yourself in the car on a nice spring day.

Oh, the sneezing will be perfectly normal. The accompanying flow of urine? Also normal. Nothing to see here. :)

With my first baby I requested an epidural at a certain point because I wanted it to kick in before "they got bad" but then I was told I was nearly fully dilated and it was FAR too late to get said epidural. Just ... intense cramps. Nbd, right? They weren't FUN by any means, but they weren't the bone-breaking,…
