@veronykah: Yeah, I totally meant would NOT, lol

@veronykah: US Magazine claims they found a picture (that they didn't publish) of JJ with a Nazi hat, making a Hitler mustache with his index finger, and giving the Nazi salute.

@StyckyWycket: It's totally my fault, so I wonder if my guilt has given the pain it's sticking power

Friend break-ups can be so painful. A few years ago, I was pretty depressed generally unhappy in my life. Well, I met a guy (now my husband...) and committed a friend-fauxpas. I started hanging out with him a lot and blowing off my best friend at the time. It was only for a couple weeks and it was because we were in a…

@willwriteforfood: Haha, my mom actually thought my Judy Blume books were "trashy" because they took on this subject and others. I sneaked them anyway, obvs!

the hard way...

Wal-Mart solely makes decisions based on the bottom line. Between sexism in the workplace, screwing their workers on full-time status (and consequently not providing health care), busting unions, etc., I think a doll that probably doesn't sell very well in Louisiana is the least of this company's egregious actions.

@sekushinonyanko: I am almost 30 and the idea that in a few years I would be "advised not" to wear my lovely, colorful, fun bikinis anymore because I might look like I'm "trying too hard" to seem youthful is totally depressing. I hope my generation is the first to break the "age-appropriate" bracket. Wear what you…

@hughman: I absolutely agree. It felt a little... exploitative to me.

As a child of the 80's, it was particularly horrible that my parents wouldn't allow me to have a Nintendo (the original one where you had to blow on the games.) Poor Adrienne across the street... I think it finally dawned on her I was using her for her video game console... Sorry Addie!!!

@dclady: It could be as simple as re-entering/reloading the NBC page after downloading the silverlight software. Just did it on my Mac and am good o go!

Could Gabby possibly have a better attitude? She is always a breath of fresh air!

The only good thing is that her mother is now raising her child... except for the fact that her mother also raised her... and she turned out like that...

Sexuality is like mental illness in my eyes. There is no black and white, yes or no with it. Everyone is on a sliding scale of mental health, and it seems to me that sexuality is the same. If you are a "1" you are totally straight, if you are a "10" you are totally gay. We all fall somewhere on this scale.

I believe that sexuality is like mental illness. It's not black or white, you have it or not... we are all on a sliding scale of mental health. Why can't the same be true for sexuality? Some people may be a 1 (totally straight) or some might be a 10 (totally gay), but we all fall somewhere on this scale.

Oh my god. Rachel Maddow totally IS Anchor Babe.

@Spaghetti Cat: Amen! Well said. Most people (including the ones who voted for Scott Brown), according to the MA exit polls, want Congress to "go further" with the bill and include crazy things like "a public option." The Dems could and should learn a thing or two from the Bush style of governance. There was no party…

@Mireille is German for the Bart, the.: Soooo true. It's such a shame that our fellow Americans can't see the Democratic party for what it is. That said... I still can't understand why a Republican would be a solid replacement choice. I am just confused.

This is SO besides the point, but is KFC better in Australia, too, like in Europe, than it is in the US? It really tastes amazingly different in the EU, and some says it's because they don't use gen. mod. birds. Same in Australia? (BTW- I'm a white girl who grew up LOVING fried chicken in Louisiana).
