“whom we all called Caramel Lady. ”

I was working in an upscale restaurant

As someone who is two weeks out of an abusive relationship, I did not understand what she said in that way. It is a weakness. It is not our fault, but it is a weakness placed on us by a society that tells us we should be a certain way (passive, etc) and we should let men take control of us. It is a weakness that even…

Good for her. There's no reason for her to take that shit.

She was quoting W.C. Fields (badly).

I want to hire a lady to follow me around in a wedding dress, accusing everybody I see of “Ruining my wedding day!”

It’s big in the South.

“So, your table stopped me and asked what kind of fish they had was because they thought you were lying to them; I told them it was cod and they asked why we didn’t have real fish.”

The Bay Area is not a desert. Northern California is not a desert. The Central Coast is not a desert. The Sierras are not desert. We’re all hurting here, and we’re not all So Cal. I’ll promise not to generalize about Minnesota if you can extend the same courtesy to California. Thanks.

Now be fair. It’s been scientifically proven that melanin exhaled through laughter decreases railroad efficiency.

Eh. Once again, drop in the fucking bucket compared to inappropriate agriculture and wasteful industries.

Have you ever seen Snowden and Scissorhands in the same place tho.

The Reuben one reminded me of a story Terry Pratchett told. He said that one jet-lagged evening he accidently asked for Three Mile Island dressing for his salad. The waitress didn’t say a word, just brought him Thousand Island dressing and a bottle of hot sauce.

THIS ARTICLE IS ME.

Honest to God, pregnant women don’t need “excuses” for drinking coffee. Or having the occasional glass of wine or beer. Or eating lunch meat. Or having cats (yes, this actually something some people try to shame pregnant women about). Or any of a host of other things. Women’s bodies don’t become public domain just…

My doctor told me a glass of wine here and there was fine. So during my last trimester I drank red wine occasionally. No more than a glass, glass in a half, and my daughter suffered no ill effects from it.

You know, I get it. I’m a relative newcomer to the whole makeup THING (I’ve worn it for a long time, but always in a slapdash sort of way; I’ve only recently started paying attention to quality of product, technique and tools of application, etc). While I think it’s fun to use makeup, and a get a certain thrill out of…

I like Millihelen a lot. And I’m always excited to see a new article go up. But honestly this just felt a little too mean to me. I get that parts of it were meant as jokes, but I think the execution here was off. I’m a woman who likes makeup and I’m a feminist. Those are not mutually exclusive.

We just traded shiny bones and remained paired until one of the bones was lost, in a godless tradition prior to 1910. Literally, WWI was about the creation of marriage and nothing else.

Dear Armané, I'm a wildlife rehabber, animals do gay things all the time. So, your argument is quite stupid.
