I’m down for this would would actually consider watching HGTV again. I gave up on it years ago. Most everything on that network is unattainable for the average American, especially now with unemployment skyrocketing. I’m sick of seeing huge remodeling budgets. I can’t relate, andI don’t find it relaxing to watch

More reason for me to hate on GOOP. She stole Martin Scorsese’s glasses. Stealing glasses from an old man. Tsk.

Corporate April 1st Twitter thread:

Loved this write-up. I’m a huge fan of these movies, despite the maddening sexism and the fact that Doris had to be so prudish despite her age.

Hear me out: Sardines & Avocado.

So there’s going to be a lot of terrible houseguests after birth of new baby stories, right? I had my first born, and the first week my mom came to stay and she was wonderful. I had a C-section and had complications from it, and had developed pneumonia. I was so so tired. Then mom left and dad and stepmom came. They

Testing. Yes. At the beginning of February, about a week before the Corona Virus panic started I got sick. It started with a sore throat and I thought “no big deal, it’s a cold.” 36s hours later I was lying on the floor after I had been unable to walk to let my dog outside and I thought “Oh my, this isn’t an ordinary

But, bodega grapes. That makes her relatable, right?

I will die on this hill - grilled cheese is best with American cheese. Kraft deluxe American preferably. Other than grilled cheese though, American cheese serves no purpose and should not be eaten.

OK, the woman who said it can be forgiven - she’s from France. I know few French film stars so I’m not going to get mad over it. The people defending the statement though - seems like a generational thing. A lot of youngs/youngish are ignorant of anything that’s not from their own particular era, despite living in the

I don’t understand the big deal about quitting drinking (unless you have addiction issues). I don’t get dry January either. I drink maybe two to three times a year. Can most people really not go longer than a month? Maybe it’s just me. If you are unable to relax without booze perhaps you need better anxiety coping

They way my groceries are bagged is such a pet peeve for me, I will ashamedly admit that I profile baggers and choose my checkout like accordingly. I will choose an older person over a younger person first. Then it’s women over men. Older women are (usually) the best baggers. I surmise this is due to women usually

Hypnobirthing is not bullshit. And it’s more than just focusing and breathing. I can honestly say that for me (normal) contractions did not hurt at all. Yes, I felt pressure and squeezing and it was intense, but I would in no way at all label it pain. First pregnancy I had to argue to get admitted. I walked in, told

I have very strong feelings about mustaches. Almost NOBODY should wear them, as they are icky. There are some exceptions: professional baseball players from the 1970s, cops, Tom Selleck and Sam Elliot. That is all.

Gotta disagree with you there. At the end, she’s wearing a dress. Dresses rarely have pockets. Women obsess over finding dresses or skirts with pockets. They proudly tell other women “this dress has pockets!!!” because it’s such a rare occurrence. Also, pockets in women’s pants are rarely trustworthy. They are usually

This movie has not aged well for me. Hanks and Ryan are charming enough, but the movie has some flaws that irk me more every time I stumble across this movie on the telly. First the Harry Nilsson songs. Weird. He’s one of those artists self-proclaimed hipsters seem to love but I just can’t get into. I’ve tried, but it

Yes! Love this movie. A wonderful homage to Rock Hudson and Doris Day movies. The sets and costumes alone make it worth a view. My only complaint about this article is its failure to mention David Hyde Pierce doing his best Tony Randall yet keeping it very David Hyde Pierce. He was perfect casting for the Tony Randall

At home we quote Signorney Weaver’s character in this whenever we poke fun an someone acting very entitled:

I found this show to be much more enjoyable when I accepted that Sabrina is not a good person, and isn’t working to be a good person. She’s not totally bad, but that doesn’t make her a heroine in any sense that she’s fighting the good fight for others. She’s not. She’s fighting her fight for what she wants, even

ETHAN FROME. Goddamn I hate that book. I switched high schools my junior year and was forced to read that horrible thing twice. Not only was it boring and depressing, it was stupid. The whole “let’s attempt suicide by sledding into a giant tree” thing was too absurd. I grew up in a cold climate and unfortunately
