Maybe it’s the “set on” part that they need to modify with “alleged,” since that implies a deliberate act, vs. “caught on” fire, which could be an accident.

hell, the show AIRED before they started dating. She didn’t even inspire the junkets.

And Essie Davis is a goddess.

Oh MAN. I just realized that my golden birthday was my 21st, and I didn’t even know what a golden birthday was, back then.

It was $400 worth, which is several but not necessarily unusually many. It is a common scam, you’re right, and a lot of stores do limit purchases for that reason. (A lot of stores also won’t have their cashiers activate a whole bunch of cards because it holds up the line, but will make you go to customer service…

Like, the part of my memory that has blanked out the whole scene where Janel Moloney explains to Casey the difference between gray and gunmetal?

I just hope the fact that he’s now unemployed doesn’t mean that she’s going to have to pay that asshole alimony.

You should definitely pee after sex (if you’re a woman), and that is indeed a good time to clean up. But that only helps with the issue that MisfitToy is talking about, it doesn’t completely stop it from happening.

Our bodies host all kinds of things, it’s true, and for the most part that’s fine and doesn’t matter. Having bacteria on our skin does not equate to having a bacterial infection. Exchanging ordinary amounts of microbes through personal contact is not something that’s worth trying to prevent, because it’s not…

A rectangle can be a square. Rectangles are often squares. The lesson is that a square is always a rectangle, but a rectangle isn’t always a square.

Count me in with the yeses, too. Though as the others have said, obviously I would work differently, if I had the kind of freedom that money offers. But I wouldn’t just kick it all day.

I think people who drive cars do. I just spend so little time in a car that I’m completely out of that loop, but I think that’s a big part of his audience.

They’re kind of distant cousins, though—I don’t think they really knew each other before she became famous.

Bradford Pear. To me those don’t smell like semen specifically, but just more generally like sex. Like kind of a mix of all the sex smells. They’re pretty to look at, but ugh, that smell.

Oh my God. I forgot about that wedding announcement. I remember reading that for the first time and actually shrieking. All I kept thinking was that anyone with any decency at all who had done such a thing—even by accident, and I know that this was of course an accident, but still—would do everything they could to…

Yeah, this is exactly what I thought he was going to say. This whole “fall to second place” thing is INSANE. Where is he working that women in his office maintain an internal social ranking based on engagement-ring size???

GOOD GOOD TIMES AT THE NOTRE DAME BASILICA, Y’ALL!!

And as an employee, that feels better in a way. It’s good to feel that you’re beloved or whatever, but it’s better to know that you’re valued. And it’s certainly better that being pitied. (though I will 100% take your pity money. Oh yes, I will.)

Particularly because having a good and well-paid staff made it easier for her to do her job. It’s kind management and it’s also pragmatic management.

If Elizabeth Smart the human were to start a conversation with me, personally, about this, I would keep my trap shut and not argue with her one bit, for exactly the reason you mention. But I think that it’s fair to take issue with Fight the New Drug, the organization, for perhaps some disingenuousness in their choice…
