This is the kind of shit that makes me not believe people when they say they own a gun for “family protection.” That line is just what they’ve been taught to say so their gun ownership will be socially acceptable. In this case, the purpose of the gun was to intimidate and punish. Lots of people buy guns so they can…

Clinique non-aerosol, unscented hairspray. One of the few without fragrance, and it works really well.

Disagree. Her short ‘do is badass and beautiful.

We called it “the battle gown.”

And let’s not forget that she has probably fallen asleep before, thus tempting other men to kiss her, too.

Dr. Scholl’s makes the same thing in a stick that’s about the size of a lipstick so you can carry it in your purse (or pocket.) But it’s from the “For Her” line, so it probably costs twice as much as the men’s athletic version you’re advertising.

It must be great to be so dismissive. Personally, I think it’s straight-up Darwinism. To quote my favorite movie, “You make choices, and you live with them.” And sometimes you die from them. Just glad she wasn’t in a position where she could hurt someone else.

Sorry Yoko, but I disagree. My dad didn’t use the words “I love you” until I was in my mid 20s. And even though he has said he always felt and thought it, (and also that I should have just known it,) that’s just not good enough. If you love your children, say the words.

I would like to bring up the fact that there are also lots of secular, non-AA recovery options for those of us who don’t believe in a higher power or find the 12 steps too religious in nature to attend. There are meetings, online support groups, books, everything you need to help yourself. They also have support for…

Nice try, AP. I’ll still be voting tomorrow. Just waiting for the flyer that says my polling place has been changed, or that Bernie died, or whatever other election shenanigans can go down. Making sure to bring my voter registration notice, so they don’t try to refuse me a ballot. I will be dropping a paper ballot in…

That’s how I feel about the taste of beer. But I have loved coffee from the first time I ever had it when I was less than 5 years old. I was the kid who ate coffee ice cream.

Her only problem, that I can see, is that she won’t have the sheer brute force that the other two women (imo) vying for the Throne will have.

Now you’re just being hysterical.

The “I’m paying my people peanuts to do this job” excuse is just a way for him to call you cheap and shift the blame onto you. He’s basically saying, “this job really needed a lot more money to be done properly, but you wouldn’t pay that much, so you get what you’re willing to pay for.”

If you wear perfume, you’re already putting synthetic petrochemicals on your skin and inhaling them into your lungs. I’d rather be sprayed with urine than modern synthetic fragrance components.

If I’m not mistaken, I think the bacon skewers are rumaki. Which is AWESOME.

Lifelong atheist here, and I feel no lack of community whatsoever. I find my community in other places: my neighborhood, my job, hobbies, clubs, festivals, meet-ups. I mean, church is just a clubhouse for people with a common interest. Community is everywhere, you just have to go find it.

It’s only stressful if the parents make it so. Learning is fun. Competing is fun. If he’s just there to have fun and celebrate learning he’ll be fine. If his parents are pressuring him to perform and be perfect, then he’ll be messed up no matter what he’s doing.

I would go back to Sweden. I visited for a few weeks after college and instantly felt at home there. Someday I hope to retire there.

Crazy. I will put any chocolate bar in my mouth for 5 cents.
