In Philly I know of only one supermarket that sells beer. Otherwise we can buy it at beverage distributor or carry-out shops. I don't even drink beer and I was happy to see this: http://www.philly.com/philly/blogs/t…

This reminds me that I really need to learn how to knit.

She must have answered one of these ads:

He will be missed.

Yes, wearing a top hat will piss off anyone standing behind you at a concert. Otherwise, just because it didn't suit you that doesn't mean that everyone should refrain from wearing one. Some of us look fabulous in top hats of various sizes.

Exactly what I was thinking. Same thing happens IRL. For example, a co-worker whom I barely interact with stops by my desk every week to show me the latest cell phone pics of her kid or tell me about the "adorable" thing her kid said or did. I like seeing photos of and getting updates about the progeny of my very…

I've never played Sims, but I suspect that many of these creeps thrive on the attention from others (likes, comments, etc) that their stolen photos/status updates/posts generate. It's like some sort of really fucked up form of validation.

Totally off topic, but I love your screen name!

My grandmother had an original Keane painting hanging on the second floor landing of her home. As a little kid it used to creep me out to walk up the stairs at night, in the dark, with those huge eyes staring at me. I was convinced the eyes followed me around like a portrait in a Scooby Doo episode. Not a good image…

No worries, I didn't feel that way about your comment!

I hadn't remembered that part of the lyrics until I looked them up recently. I think my problem is I can play devil's advocate in my head a little too well.

Sorry :/

For the most part, I don't think adults give kids enough credit. In addition I believe that environment plays a huge role in how kids infer media content. Thanks to all of this discussion I'm now in the mood to watch my Beauty & The Beast DVD when I get home and sing along loudly.

I totally get that and once again, I'm not passing judgement. I never thought twice about the song as a kid and as an adult still enjoy the movie.

Of course I am aware of that. Pearl-clutching isn't my style but just because the lyrics are sung by a villain that doesn't mean I can't find them groan-inducing. If I had a kid I would not have a problem with them seeing The Little Mermaid. My boyfriend brought up an interesting point though: young males may not…

There's a strong 'women should shut-up and be subservient' vibe:

I'm not passing judgement, just sharing an interesting photo. My boyfriend recently wrote a paper for an assignment on Disney and gender socialization, which is how I became aware of the above picture. If nothing else the article title cracks me up.
