Yes to Wurtzel. I was telling my husband about Marnell (whom he hadn't heard of). His job is very youth-entertainment oriented and he counts on my idle internet hours to keep him abreast. Anyhow, that's how I described her. Just this generation's Wurtzel, with better drugs.

Don't worry Tailypo. I have no idea what Spiceworld is, but Withnail and I is engraved on my heart.

I have a feeling that's the very justification people use when they visit sites to have a look at these kind of pics. Makes my blood burn. But also, I don't get it. Really? You send a lover a pic and that gives them carte blanche to share it with the entire Internet. Is it just slut shaming by another avenue? She…

I think it's a pretty good policy to let your kids fly their freak flags. And, oh my, their little flags can get freaky!

Thank you, ma'am. That's kind of the effect I am going for, but maybe darker.

I just watched a couple of clips and it seems utterly clear to me that this is schtick. To my view, total Kaufmanesque, head-shakingly funny schtick. She's just so good at it. And it works even better because she's a huge eyed, baby-voiced girl who looks incredibly vulnerable in her dress onstage. I am a singer and…

That's kinda hilarious. Did your mom know your reasoning? I can't decide what I would do in her shoes. Do you just let your kid rock her dream 'do or try to explain the cultural weight that hairstyle carries? I grew up in one of those tiny white farm enclaves (and escaped as soon as I could drive), so I can sort of…

Same here. I hate it. I always threaten it with lipo, but since my c-section it knows I am not having anymore belly surgery. Grrr. My belly just doesn't take me seriously.

I got mine at 15 (from a used bookstore where I worked...for books). My mother would never have bought it, since she was pretty anti-feminist when I was growing up. The best part is that my older brother frequently asked to borrow it. He once figured out he had an STI based on the info in the book. Poor kid. We had…

I'm a crap baker, but a happy wife (and no, my brains haven't melted or anything). Don't tell Mr. Ashfield, but I am pretty sure empathy, a willingness to compromise and a healthy sense of humor are more important qualities in a spouse. That and marrying someone one actually likes as well as loves.

I'll never understand it, but you always manage to express my sentiments exactly. And then post handy gifs illustrating them. Thank you for being eloquent, so I don't have to (so early in the Aussie morning). x

A Maine Coon killed my pet anole and I STILL love the whole breed. Smart, crazy, noble beasts.

My partner had to lie on the floor after he saw the epidural, so I should have pointed out that I do not fully trust his reliability as a witness. He spent the entire procedure in a lightheaded haze. After I wrote this, I spent some time reading up on the topic online and decided that it was likely that he saw…

I just did the same thing to my husband. We live in Australia, where there are wildlife hotlines that make it easier to deal with this stuff (in fairness), but he said he'd call the local hotline. I'm well pleased.

Exactly. And even if you just look at "the coasts," the NY state average house price is 460,000K. LA is 401,000K. So, no. Sorry I am coming late to this. The comment just annoyed me.

I just had a c-section 2 years ago and my partner says my intestines were on the table. I barely remember the whole thing. I was having low blood pressure issues and they had trouble keeping me conscious, but I wonder why my intestines had to come out? Does it have to do with the position of the baby or something?

I had completely erased the Hee Haw Honeys from my memory bank. You are right on. There is an almost sweetness to it. Almost.

That disturbed me so much I decided to research a bit and I'm horrified to find that you are right on the money. Here's a link to the study: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2573025/.

This is my favorite.
