I do it without even thinking about it.

It's not an exact science, but I can just tell that I'm getting close to being full. If I'm still hungry after waiting 10 or so minutes then I'll have a few more bites to eat before stopping again. I'm a slow eater to begin with, so I imagine that if you eat to fast it would more difficult to sense how full you are.

I'm going to NYC tomorrow to see Waiting For Godot, and this photo makes me even more excited!

No thank you. I practice hara hachi bu, which means you stop eating when you are 80% full. I've found that after 10 minutes or so I feel completely full, but not uncomfortably so.

Back in the LiveJournal days, I used to refer to my ex as He Who Must Not Be Named.

I have a thing for alliteration, too. The only problem I have with Pad Palace is it also makes me think of Bachelor Pad, which defeats the purpose.

My number one pick: Man Cave. For the love of whatever you consider holy, please stop using this term. It's akin to a woman declaring a room her "Tampon Retreat". Other picks which sound like the speaker/writer lost their train of thought:
- Adorbs
- Vacay
- Ridic
- Totes

Some folks over at Jalopnik discussed the tax issue in depth: http://jalopnik.com/woman-wins-157… (I'm using my phone so sorry for not making the link pretty).

Your comment made me laugh so loudly that I scared the bejesus out of my BF. Kudos.

Target issues their own credit and debit cards. So when you say "Call MasterCard, Call your bank", for RedCard holders that means "Call Target". You might be surprised at how many RedCard holders are out there considering a 5% discount isn't much. Granted, the debit card PIN can be changed online but many people…

I don't know where you live, but here in Pennsylvania licenses don't include weight. More importantly, why the hell would I allow a fucking machine to decide what's best for me to eat?

Yup. Just ask me about the time I went to a concert and the machine fog made me nauseous to the point that I grabbed a bouncer's cup of water and vomited into it. I was at the very front of a sold-out general admission crowd so there was no way I was going to make it out and to a bathroom in time. More often than not…

This was a much funnier way of saying what I was thinking. My parents are both on Facebook and they have never once sent me a friend request or brought it up for discussion. I don't post anything to Facebook that I wouldn't want a potential employer to see, but my parents understand that I need my space even though…

One of the best holiday gifts I ever received was a table saw from my boyfriend. He knew I wanted one so I could cut down wood for mixed media art pieces. Power tools can be so much fun.

I definitely had a VHS recording from television and wouldn't be surprised if it was PBS. I also had a thing for spiders and used to capture and observe them. I named every single spider (and my male Cabbage Patch Kid doll) 'Frederic' in honour of The Pirate King.

I'm surprised no one has mentioned Kevin Kline. When I was four I saw Pirates of Penzance and told my parents I was going to marry him one day.

My old TV died late last year and I waited until after Christmas to buy a new one. The prices and sales were waaaaay better post-Xmas.

There are so many good choices, it's hard to know where to begin. Here are a few to start with (obviously I have a thing for 80s music):

I have tickets to see Godot in January and am so freaking excited!

I think there was a Pikachu bounce house like this...
