Hahaha dude you are like, just ticking off every item on the list of bad faith sexist argument bullshit. I have no obligation to you. I am not subservient to you. I am not obligated to pretend I don't think you're disgusting. I am not obligated to change my "tone" to one that doesn't make your widdle bottom wip…

I am currently on the South Beach Diet; so, tons of eggshells. Off to Google that face mask!

My guess is a ocean acidification experiment. The egg shells make a good substitute for clam shells and the kids can see how more acid from CO2 makes the shells weaken.

That one got me too!

Why would you wanna scare away slugs? You put saucers with beer in it, the slugs will drink it and die.

I was assuming they had a scavenger hunt.

I live kind of, across the way from a really nice neighborhood. Like, an NFL player lives nearby. My house is more in the "new owner" kind of size, but there are some fucking awesome houses. It's got the same kind of deal: every Halloween, buckets of kids come in from everywhere to go trick or treating. And you know…

I am so excited that the place I get my morning bagel made it into Kitchenette, and for something hilarious, not awful. It's a rare win for Reno.

As much as it sometimes hurts my feelings when my friends' kids don't want to give me affection, I try to remember this at such a time — because, really, I know they love me, and I love them, and I don't want to push them into thinking that anyone invading their comfort zone is okay. When their mom says "Go give…

I really think this is the problem. As someone who was spanked and "turned out fine", it's hard for me to say that I wouldn't choose to disipline the same way that my parents did. I love my parents and I certainly don't think that I was abused or scarred, but spanking has been proven to be an ineffective method of…

Thank you, well said. I talk to a lot of people who believe because they were spanked as a kid and are overall ok with their childhoods, that means spanking is the right thing to do. My parents spanked me, not a lot, but a few times, and I don't think it traumatized me or anything like that, and I'm happy with how I…

Exactly- I think it can be not-negative, but I don't think it can really be positive.

I was spanked and also subjected to the "we're very disappointed in you" approach. The latter worked loads better than the former. I am also neither homeless or dog-owning.

It was hilarious that the difference in outcomes between spanking and not spanking was a dog!

It's cool if you're vehemently pro- or anti-spanking/beating/whooping, but some of us (especially those who aren't parents yet) are still up in the air about it.

That's exactly why I came to the comments section, to ask that. I wouldn't necessarily be surprised, though - I've seen instances (in celebrities and "real life") of reformed addicts who end up with a really conservative streak. My totally uninformed theory is that it comes from not trusting anyone, because they…

I once - and this is not an exaggeration - went on an OkCupid date with a guy who spoke in an Australian accent the entire time and told me he was from Perth (like literally had an entire life's story centered around being from there). The next time I saw him, he spoke in an American accent and apologized for…

Bidet O' Fish?

Twertle.
