“So hip she comes full circle back to basic.”

In my younger and dumber days I tried (and succeeded) to get out of jury duty by saying that I couldn’t remain impartial after hearing graphic details of a rape. The judge looked down her nose at me and (rightfully) lectured me, saying that the reason rape is a crime is because we are supposed to be uncomfortable with…

Baby had her first birthday party today!

Brag thread! What’s a super cool thing you have accomplished recently?

Yeah this is shade.

When McCain finally loses it and stands up in the middle of some government function/hearing/meeting/SOTU address/whatever and yells, “I did not endure 5 years of torture for this bullsh*t!!!!”...what would that be called? Reading for filth? A burn? A mental breakdown?  

I have been waiting all day. All week, I’ve been waiting for Friday, not for the impending weekend, but for Shade Court.

Honorable Judge Brown, I have been waiting since Tuesday to post this for your consideration. Be it shade?

Was the Taco Bell one a joke? Because I actually am invited to a wedding where Taco Bell will be served. Please tell me I am the only person who knows someone who expects me to shell out for a plane ticket to Pennsylvania, a hotel room, a gift, and time off from work - and be served an “oh my God, they’re so…

We are planning a Hygge themed wedding. The bridesmaids’ dresses will be warm Scandinavian knit sweaters, the groom has been growing a long bushy beard and on the wedding day he’ll be hiding cinnamon sticks and star anise in it and the bride will be driven into the wedding venue in a 1974 beige Volvo station wagon.…

Arizona is more in play than I ever could have hoped. I’m not super enthused about HRC, but if she can win AZ, that might put the worthless ‘red state’ narrative to bed for good. She has my Baja Arizona vote!

correct. and they aren’t even the GOOD gawker trolls. they’re like, the guys who the Gawker trolls wouldn’t let in the cool troll club so now they’re trying again over here. It’s not even sporting to mess with them, honestly, but I’m in a mood.

I guess that’s another ‘Breastaurant’ like Hooters or Tilted Kilt, but wouldn’t it be great if it was like Lynch’s Twin Peaks? Excellent coffee, delicious pies, and the chance sighting of Cooper, Harry, Hawk and all the rest.

Speak for yourself. I attended a potluck thrown by my community choir (100+ singers) and it was fucking AWESOME! There were a lot of people who could cook their butts off and were looking for a reason to show off... it was fabulous.

I present…potluck New Year’s!

Kara,

Hell, forget about making it look invisible—I’d like to see the people who knock dressage as not a real sport just try to *stay on* a Grand Prix horse at a medium or extended trot.

Kara needs to step off Dressage. It’s really hard to ballance a 1200lb beast while looking like you are doing nothing. Also, anyone who can watch a freestyle and not cry is a robot.
