My sister accidentally discovered that muscle relaxers work awesome for period cramps; she was taking them for an unrelated problem, but half an hour after taking one her cramps went from “can’t stand up” to completely gone. Talk to your doctor, obvs.

You can definitely buy stuff online with a debit card, at least in the US. It’s how I do all my online shopping.

A vaginally-born baby would be getting a mouthful of that stuff anyways.

That’s exactly what the “phantom limb” analogy means. Rationally, you know it’s not there, but sometimes it feels like it’s still there, and it hurts.

Or a good actor, in the case of Pirates. My uncle’s first thought after seeing the first movie was that Johnny Depp’s performance was the difference between it being a hit and it being mediocre and quickly forgotten.

I love fruit flavored soda. My latest obsession is black cherry cream soda, but I might have to see if the asian market near my work carries japanese melon soda.

Anyone else thinking of the Futurama episode where all the appliances staged an uprising?

It prevents your bosses/former bosses from stumbling across your post while googling the company name.

She is aware that Bush was the one who started the Iraq war, right? Not Obama?

I prefer Bernie too, but I’m worried that he might be too far left for the middle-of-the-road independent swing voters, and that Hilary will have a better chance in the general election. But with how wacky the Republican nominees are, I think anyone who’s not a rabid conservative will probably vote Democrat anyway. So…

Not very scandalous. The term “shotgun wedding” was coined for a reason; it was surprisingly common for women to be pregnant when they got married.

I have an account just to follow comedic twitters like bird’s rights activist, and I never post anything of my own. It works out pretty well. Nobody bothers to harass an account with basically zero activity.

My mom’s pulling one on my sister’s fiancé. She got him a comically tiny stocking that matches our full-size stockings, and a full-size stocking that doesn’t match. She’s going to present him with the tiny stocking, which will contain like three pieces of candy, and tell him he doesn’t get a real stocking until he…

My mom and sister once got stuck on the one at Cedar Point. They said they could feel it swaying in the wind.

My dad told me it was illegal because the light made the window reflective, and thus made it hard for the driver to see out. Which makes sense, because that actually is how glass works. I wonder if different states have laws about that.

It also has to do with people objecting to nativity scenes on government owned property. Seperation of church and state and all that.

I swear by Pert Plus, but I imagine that hair type plays a large part in what works for which people. I have thick, straight hair, and I let it air-dry, for the record.

Add to that the fact that human traffickers frequently lure victims by telling them they’ll get them jobs as models and actresses, yeah I can’t blame the TSA for doing their due diligence when some details didn’t add up (like them not having performer visas).

no, it was definitely 2013. There was a horrendous ice storm a week before christmas, and a huge chunk of the state lost power. I still live with my parents, so I went with my younger siblings to my grandpa’s house, and we had a lovely christmas eve chinese food feast. The power came back on Christmas morning, but our…

Ah yes, I remember the winter of 2013. Did you guys lose power, too? We didn’t have any power for like a week, so I spent a couple of days trudging half a mile through the snow to the library so I could hang out there and charge my DS, before my parents just decided to ship all of us to my grandparent’s house in…
