@TheUptightMidwesterner: Aw, my parents do that to me too when I visit. And between the ages of 12 and 24, I was the only child living in the house.

@DinaRonson: Agree. My big wish for this season is that the drama behind the scenes didn't affect the actual filming, so we'll all get a great send-off season before it switches to Lifetime.

@Archetype: My godmother will get me gift certificates to an independent bookstore near her called "The Reader's Forum" where the two guys behind the desk know pretty much every book that they have in stock, and they are amazing with recommendations. Find one like that near you—not only are you supporting local…

While I always enjoyed Jen's posts when she was here, I am finding just as much pleasure out of reading yours—it's nice to get different perspectives and voices when it comes to fashion (as is with most of the topics on this site). You've been doing an excellent job, and I have to say, I really enjoy these "Loose…

@SisterMaryMartha: I honestly preferred the first one over the second, only because it was so faithful to the first book. I felt that the second tried to mash too many stories into one miniseries, and it just felt...rushed. It also cheapened Anne of the Island, which still is my favorite of the series. The BBC did a…

@SisterMaryMartha: That's because the producer was no longer allowed access to the original material due to legal action on the Montgomery heirs' part, so he just went with his own story. What's worse is that he's supposedly dreaming up a PREQUEL.

@kungfutoday: Oh, you have to rent the Anne movies—the first two are really good (though the second borrows WAY too much from Little Women, and barely touches on Anne of the Island, which I love the most). The third one is atrocious because the producer shafted the Montgomery heirs out of profits from the first two,…

@ronaldpagan: Not delusional at all—I actually had a friendship go south because I deemed my boyfriend my "best friend" over her. Funny, because while she struggled to maintain friendships with women in relationships after that, I'm marrying the boy in October... :-)

@SisterMaryMartha: I had a guy act pretty "friendly" to me a few weeks ago—I was talking to my friends, minding my own business, and he comes around and snakes his hand around my waist and says to us, "Don't we look good together?" I then turn to him, announce that I'm getting married and my fiance is right over…

@tscheese: "Vindicated" and a live version of "Hands Down" from a Y-100 Sonic Session are my DC guilty pleasures. And now I must listen to both.

@LaComtesse: Plugging along. It's been a hectic past few weeks between a bachelorette party that stirred up more drama than necessary, the future in-laws visiting (which was tons of fun), hosting the best man and his fiance for a weekend and on said same weekend going to one of my bridesmaid's own bridal shower, but…

@EasttoMidwest: That's so funny—we could possibly end up throwing an "anniversary" party next year because we usually have a big party in October anyway, where we buy loads of wine and beer and make tons of food for our friends. No one is required to bring anything, but everyone tends to bring wine or a dessert, and…

@andBegorrah: @thatgirlinnewyork: Whenever he appears on an episode of Top Chef, my fiance immediately starts chanting "Tony, Tony, Tony!"

@thatgirlinnewyork: At least they are backing away from the "incest-is-sexy-OMGTWINS!" angle that was popular in the early 00's.

@bellethellama: Duh—sorry Dodai! I should be more sensitive to this, as no one can barely say my last name, much less spell it.

Doodai, thank you for posting this! I was just bitching to the boy this morning about a Michelob Ultra ad—in the course of the spot, the first second shows a pretty blonde 20-something in what appears to be work clothes, and then the bulk of the ad shows her doing various workouts while the narrator reads "Your life…

@tscheese: The tagline is, I believe (from the posters I see that make me want to go sh-Hulk): "The perfect dress is still pounds away!"

@EdnasEdibles: It's taken every ounce of self control I have to not go INSANE and tear down every single "Bulging Brides" poster I see at every Metro-North station. The worst was when they were posted all over Grand Central when the show debuted—so.horrifying. I can't look at them for more than a second.

@BlondeGrlz: The OG is my culinary dirty pleasure—I love me real gourmet food, but my fiance's family always celebrates birthdays at the OG—it makes it a fun treat for all of us, and everything there is sooooo cheap.

@PinkSoxHat: Did you know that Felicity was actually discontinued for a few years, but then they made a movie about her and brought back her collection as well as adding in Elizabeth? They also made Elizabeth blonde, which is so not correct, and have gone back and re-illustrated her hair in the books.
