I do adore him, but I can’t imagine him doing, like, unironically sexy. You know? I think he is pretty sexy, but I also think that if he did a whole sexy series of things, I would giggle rather than be turned on.

Yeah, I feel like the fact that I don’t have to perform at all makes Magic Mike okay for me? I’ve never been to a male strip club because I think I would just want to laugh hysterically the whole time at all the cheese, and what if I hurt the poor strippers’ feelings? But with Magic Mike, I can laugh hysterically at…

I actually really hate it when someone asks a loud and obnoxious person to stop, and they are like, “Hey, is this bothering anyone?” because first of all, yes, it is obviously bothering the person who already asked you to stop, but second of all, the majority of people are not going to speak up when put on the spot…

Apparently they are not from her DNA, but from a donor egg.

I don’t know; I kind of think that is better than being a halfassed dad who shows up irregularly and is a heartbreaking presence in the kid’s life. If he were a woman who got pregnant from a one-night stand, he could have an abortion, but guys don’t have that choice (and they shouldn’t; I am absolutely not advocating…

Oh man, where we’re getting married, it’s like they have never heard of a wedding. And I know that’s not true, because the venue we chose has had weddings before! But, like, we tried to book a place for our rehearsal dinner - just, like, a normal nice restaurant - and they were so perplexed. “So wait...you want us to…

I’m also usually more angry-sad than angry-enraged (at least around my partner or someone I’d want to have sex with), and no one wants sad, disappointed sex.

I’m just like that! I have a base goal for my savings account that I never want to dip below (I mean, I have to reach it first, but then I never want to dip below it). I figure that it’s a good idea to have enough money to handle a disaster, or to float us if one or both of us lose our jobs. Then any money saved…

One thing that helped us save money was choosing a venue that offered its own array of food choices. So, like, a lot of my friends hired a venue and then also outside food vendors, and that really seemed to add up. Our venue was hugely discounted because there were no transportation costs, or really prep costs either;…

I agree, but the internet is not great at the middle ground. Even when people make a perfectly reasonable comment like yours, it usually descends into responses of either “FUCKING LENTILS!” or “WASTE OF MONEY = NOT REAL LOVE”

Right? Outside of vendors, I don’t think anyone asked me this, but it was so weird every time! The boutique where I bought my dress kept asking me things like the theme and, “How do you want to feel when you walk down the aisle?” Um...like I’m not going to trip? Like I am about to get married? I DON’T UNDERSTAND THAT…

I was under the impression that the song was all about one guy. I didn’t figure out that it was, like, different hypothetical guys until my mom said something about Brad Pitt and I informed her that he is also a rocket scientist.

Hahaha, I was so into it when it was just the eating! I recommended it to so many people! Then I got to pray, and I was like, “...ohhhh no I hope they don’t follow up on that recommendation this could be so embarrassing for me”

I’m so glad you realized this! I had a lot of long conversations with a female friend of mine who was similarly complaining that sex was not that fun and kind of hurt. It turned out that her partner wanted her to be immediately ready for penetration. He would maybe give her a cursory stroke or two, but that was it…

Well her glasses but also that summer camp book. All the American girls were “nerdy” in that they valued learning, but most of the other ones were from eras that we don’t think of as having nerds (and Kit was after my and I’m sure other people’s American Girl prime - notice that she didn’t really have any jokes in the…

Hahahaha, they have a magic quill like at Hogwarts that writes down the name of every girl child to be born in the USA.

Oh, in theory, I have no problem with it. It’s a system just like any other. But in practice, people act like they battled a bear to get that A seat. Like they really deserve it, as opposed to just, like, happened to be free then. I even usually am an A or an early B, but it’s definitely because, when I am in the US,…

I hate Southwest because their bullshit seating system turns everyone into the worst kind of bootstraps capitalist. They’re all like, “I had internet access and was free at the exact second checkin was permitted, so I DESERVE my A-seat you miserable peasant! Maybe if you’d worked harder, you wouldn’t have to take the…

People are saying that she ran out of gas as well, which suuuuper changes the story, I think.
