I always fall in love that fast. I can fall out of love that fast, though, too.

"Not today." That's my go-to response, too.

Love Charlie, love Gus, but seriously? Team Toby.

Demi Moore?

"An 8-dimensional conceptual fog from space that eats villages and speaks in smells"—perfection.

Turing's Testicles phrasing was harsh, but he or she is correct—President Bush didn't necessarily come up with this idea. Yes, he endorsed it to the point of making it policy, but my understanding is that he agreed with the right-wing pressure groups who pushed for it—not that he thought it up himself.

Oh, fuck straight hair. Straight hair is boring hair.

I know, right? And the best part is that all of the bottles are size 10 and smaller—because it's an exclusive brand.

That, and the fact that the boyfriends were also, apparently, sluts.

Oh, so Macklemore can take my grandpa's style and rock it, but I can't be freaking comfortable and put together when I wear a skirt and heels?

I've had this book on my shelf for ages, and my girl (now 13) has never been interested in it. I tried it on a number of occasions. It's just not a kid's book, but then, neither is it a grown-up book.

Eddie Haskell was no "adorable scamp." Eddie Haskell was a dangerous sociopath that Mr. and Mrs. Cleaver tolerated because he hadn't done anything—yet—that would put their boys in serious trouble. They always knew the potential was there, though, which is why they were always dubious.

Shoe question: may one wear "pony" shoes (you know, shoes that simulate horsehair) in spring? I mean, I'm going to, but I'd like to know whether I'm breaking fashion rules by doing so.

Oh, Billy Joel, I've always secretly loved you. And now look what you've done, making that young musician's day/month/year/possibly career.
