Oh, I’m not a fan of it, please don’t get me wrong! Just when we get formal correspondence for military related events, it’s always going to revert to the “proper” etiquette. I am interested to see if that changes with increasing numbers of female service members and the recognition of same sex marriages.

Exactly - the campus PD where I went to college was notorious for being on a huge power trip, and flagrantly overstepped boundaries on multiple occasions. I can’t imagine that the answer to this is MOAR GUNZ!!1!!

Looks like I have something new to add to my watch list!

There’s actually a growing movement to “protect” unused IVF embryos, and it scares the hell out of me. Someone mentioned it here, but they call them “snowflake babies.” Where I recently moved from, there was no shit a local news segment talking about the “heroic” efforts of one IFV Dr. who was keeping them stored so…

Thank you for what you do - you’re providing an amazing service for people, and you rock!

Idk what show that’s from, but I’m also kind of loving him in The Affair. Cole can get it anytime, anywhere as far as I’m concerned.

Nice! If we could make something fun out of our names, I would totally be down with a portmanteau. Unfortunately, we can’t find anything that doesn’t sound like a rare disease.

Right? Like, individually I have no real interest in them besides the fact that I was totally team Pacey in the 90s. Together, for some reason I just like them as a couple.

Exactly. Etiquette-wise, if I’m Jane Smith and my husband is Bob Jones, Mr. and Mrs. Bob Jones is correct, if outdated. I think I could also be referred to as Mrs. Bob Jones, but I agree, that’s somehow worse to me, but I’m not sure why, exactly.

I don’t understand this! Most of the family on both sides were more concerned about the fact that we didn’t have a church wedding than my keeping my last name, but one of his grandmothers literally started sobbing and couldn’t understand why I didn’t want his last name, like I thought there was something wrong with…

I get this a lot - my husband is in the military and I kept my name, which is almost unheard of among military spouses, so I’ve just had to pick my battles with formally addressed correspondence. Even though I don’t have his name, “Rank & Mrs. Husband’s Name” isn’t technically incorrect, and I’m fine with simplifying…

I have brothers and sisters, but the girls were waaay rougher. The boys were definitely grosser, though.

Yes, but it's awesome :)

Because misandry.

I’m stealing ammosexuals!

Given their statement, it sounds like the administration at UT will consider this trespassing and enforce accordingly.

Oh Mindymoo, of course he’s not a terrorist! He’s a mentally ill lone wolf, who’s usually a really nice guy, and gave absolutely no indications that he would do something like this.

Ooh, I would be at shows all the time! I’ve just moved to New England, so hopefully the prospects will be better here. It is really frustrating in smaller areas, though, when people want to complain about the lack of good music, then won’t take the time to actually see shows when they do come to the area.

I agree completely!

Thank you! At first I was all excited that they chose her, then I saw that cover. It doesn’t need to be a glamour shot, but dang.
