I have the slightly older, non-digital version of the Cuisinart toaster oven. It is a great machine. I use it all the time.

Um, have you read the papers (or the internet) at all these days? Judges make fucked up rulings all the time. I absolutely guarantee you that rapists have been awarded visitation, including overnight visits, with their kids, if not joint custody. GUARANTEE it.

"Like begets like" isn't science; it's the philosophy behind homeopathy, which science has found no evidence to support as being effective. Also, here and here and a whole bunch of other places.

Think twice before you tell your parents anything about your marriage, period, unless it is that you are deliriously happy. Otherwise they will feel compelled to tell you how to solve your problems and if you don't take their advice, you will hear about it for an eternity.

Oh FFS. These are the kind of people I would show the door when I was still practicing. I remember one lady who came in because there were bugs in her box of Rice-a-Roni and her toddler had eaten some out of the box (like lady, supervise your kid a little better?). I asked her, did he get sick? She said no. Did anyone…

I can’t judge her without knowing more about her life situation. So many women are financially vulnerable and lacking in support. I just hope she doesn’t get seriously hurt.

I’m pretty sure I read his wife isn’t pursuing this. So the shithead will get away with it like so many others do. He probably convinced her not to “ruin his career” or some such shit.

He’s not dead.

But it IS how things were done in those days, and it wasn't considered shitty then. In the book, the whipping takes place much less privately, and is done in part to mollify the rest of men, who are still on the trail and now in great danger because of Claire's rash actions. As Jamie even said in the episode, had a…

I don’t actually believe Wenner when he says Erdely will write for them again. I think he was trying to be consistent with the “we really weren’t the bad guys here, this was an isolated incident mostly caused by a lying source” narrative, which will be their litigation position. In reality, I doubt she’ll ever publish…

I’m from a crappy village on Long Island that I always called the armpit of Long Island. It’s about 90 minutes from NYC (always called “the City”) but no one ever goes. Anti-intellectual, bigoted, no-class people that I never want to see again. I have no family left there and never plan to go back. One of my few high…

I kept such a trashcan next to my dorm bed in college when I went to bed shitfaced. Better safe than sorry.

Of course he is. Let’s hope he goes to heaven soon.

And I should add that I am not a saint when it comes to speeding or minor traffic infractions.

We had yoga at my high school a million years ago (okay, not a million, but it was the Disco era so I’m close) and nobody made a fuss. These people need to get the stick out of their asses.

I was a carsick kid. Nobody gives you any sympathy, and they should.

In those days the hairspray was industrial strength. I bet it was even stronger in Germany.

Granola bars can be chock full of sugar. You might as well as be eating a cookie.

And some steak is as cheap as ground beef. Fish sticks? Is that even nutrition or just calories?

Nope. If there is a mistrial, most of the time the prosecution can retry the case, but no appeals of a not guilty jury verdict.
