Your midwestern forebears probably took some Memento Mori of their own. Taking pics of dead people was all the rage back in those days, partly because family members back in the old country, and back east, etc couldn't make it to the funeral.

Know this; when I die, if people photoshop angel wings on me etc, and there IS an afterlife... I promise I'll be up (down?) there laughing my ass off. Gimme a halo while you're at it, bitches.

Well, yes and no. It's complicated, I think in a lot of ways we dealt with our circumstances differently and also my biological dad has a healthy concept of boundaries and so on. In a lot of ways my Dad was someone I'd clearly been seeking, in regards to the type of relationships I found myself in, etc. but that is…

At the same time, I knew I was adopted, so there was still the whole "well, that's not really my cousin.. like not really really...."

As someone who was adopted as a small child, and found both sets of bio families as an adult... life is weird. The people I grew up with as family have that "family feel" naturally, because I grew up with them. When I met my biological family it was different. Not GSA different, but you definitely don't have this…

No, he didn't. Re-read the article. She asked him to stop initiating and he didn't.

I disagree, I don't think it's implied that the attraction itself is genetic, but that it occurs between two people genetically related. I could be wrong though.

It's seriously like they had the "what not to do list" confused with the "what to do" list.

Crazy!

And it changes sometimes to the American spelling, inexplicably. From one day to the next.

I have played the game on both PC and mobile. It was weird how it went; at first it was SO FUN! And super addictive. Then it got really, really, really boring. The server kept shitting out. The promise of more voyage missions "soon" started seeming like a mockery. It felt like a game that could have really held…

I like that "Evangelical Atheists"

The current generation of kids will never know how magical and amazing it really is.

I had honestly forgotten about her being on Rhoda, I was pretty little when I watched it though, so I cut myself some slack.

I forgot she was on that!

Apparently Julie Kavner used to shop at the same grocery store as my boss. The Marge voice is pretty much her voice, apparently.

This was part of the reason for the Indian Child Welfare Act, which restricts the adoption of Native children by non Native families. There were similar conditions in the "vocational schools" here as well, being beaten for speaking your own language, etc. People are shitty everywhere, apparently.

I'd say it's a grass is greener scenario. Girls with bigger ones get more attention, but not always in the best way.

And why exactly are you not resting your spaghetti plate directly on your God-given tv tray(s)? (I also have many spaghetti sauce stains on my shirts, but that's because I'm just not a very graceful eater.)

I disagree. As a lover of large chunks of ham, I hate spiral ham.
