It happens with poor old people too. I used to work in nursing homes and we’d have families discharge their parent AMA so they could get their SS check (which goes to the nursing home if they’re receiving Medicaid).

I’m actually looking forward to having kids because then I’ll have a perfectly valid excuse to NOT fly across the country to see my in-laws.

Is that the one where they kill his dog? If so, there is absolutely no way you could ever get me to watch that movie.

It’s more like $90 I think for the year. But if you’re going to a ton of NPs, worth it

Still wondering which is best for a hangover

Today, I was sitting in on 6th grade science. The teacher asked the class “Who was the first African American woman in space?”. One of the kids turned in the response “OJ Simpson”. His teacher was not amused.

I kinda have mad respect for the guys that went to the same pizza place twice in one day. Like, you can’t switch it up with a burrito or something? That’s dedication.

Oh, same!! I didn’t get veneers but I did get some bonding on my front 4 teeth. They were stained from being a sick baby, and slightly too small. Very simple thing to do at the dentist. I was 13, so people kept asking me if I had gotten my braces off. I’ve been considering veneers as a permanent solution lately, but…

I agree; there’s definitely a self-esteem/confidence aspect to it.

Re: Jillian Michaels: I had a similar experience but on a much lower scale when I was in middle school. I got contacts when I was 11, because kids made fun of me for my (gigantic) glasses (thanks, 90s!). I immediately became more popular and got more friends. Middle school/high school kids are really the worst. It…

I said that yesterday and got SHAMED by another commenter who said that it CLEARLY WAS NOT consentual. Since I was on my phone it was too much effort to respond. But I’ll say it now... That’s really not how I read it.

I’m not over the water gardens. They are gorgeous, and were filmed at the Alcazar in Seville, Spain. I was there a couple weeks before the first episode in that location aired, and seriously, you guys, they look JUST like that. So, so beautiful. GoT didn’t have to do any TV magic to make that place look awesome.

Third, no? In the books Drogo did not rape Dany on their wedding night.

I just had to wear one. I am 5’2”, they had to hack off like 2 feet and take in the top like 6 inches, then the hips barely fit... that fucking thing looked horrible on me.

I had a dream last night that Anne Hathaway came to my (imaginary) wedding and gave me a ridiculously complex yet heartfelt card featuring Winnie the Pooh and it made me cry. In the dream. Not for real.

my BF is a software developer; he thinks this show is HILARIOUS. I was amused at first but didn’t get the commentary on the industry itself. It’s gotten much funnier, I think, for those of us not in the tech industry. HBO Sunday nights are an event in our house.

My bf of several years and I have also discussed this; the ONLY reason I would have our sisters wearing matching outfits is because I really don’t trust his sister not to wear something slutty

Yes! I started watching Agent Carter because of great reviews. I then watched Captain America and the Avengers just because I LOVED Agent Carter so much. I realize I did that backwards. She is such a badass. I want more of that.

So, my boyfriend is a photographer. I am not. He carries around giant cameras when we’re vacationing. I have my iphone. He NEVER takes pictures of us at these places and doesn’t trust strangers with his very expensive cameras. I have less qualms. He takes these gorgeous pictures of the places we go... and then does…

I’m not going to lie to you, it’s not easy. I just turned 30, have piles of student loans to pay, and would like to buy a condo but that pesky down payment thing is preventing me. My boyfriend and I travel quite a bit. We just got back from Spain for a week. He is an insane traveler, will do weekend trips to Shanghai…
