We are all Kvshton

I think sometimes abusive parents have a tendency to believe the lies they've told themselves about how wonderful their children's childhoods were. Particularly if their children turned out to be decent adults.

The bottom one was a massage candle. What the hell is a massage candle?

human treasure talks to human garbage about non humans, is a treasure, makes garbage mad.

I kept reading polish week as Polish week, in which case I imagine the prep is less manicure and more:

17 and still paralyzed - therefore, still a minor and reliant upon his parents - and says it was a lie. You know what, kid? You're good in my books because that takes a lot of guts.

I dunno, the Bobby Jindal rebuttal was classic, because the collective groan of Republicans who realized he was a terrible choice to be their token could be heard echoing across the country.

God also called pigs abominable, which tells me that He's not in any way fit to judge what's good or bad (look at those widdle noses).

I still occasionally get reviews and personal hate mail talking about my gay agenda. (Basically, I had 2 gay men, 1 lesbian, and 1 bisexual woman in a book...so, ya know, mega gay agenda).

Can that day be really super soon?

Woo hoo! Jezzie meet up! I'll be the one with the garland of Lipton tea bags (and the wicked loud train-loving toddlers).

The other day a lady made very clear she was allergic and needed the gluten free pasta with her meatballs. When I explained that the meatballs had bread in them, she said, "Thats ok, I like it in meatballs."

Are you west of Boston? In the 'ham?

Are you seriously the Cat Stealing Dog Bed Truther right now? Were all the conspiracy theories about chemtrails and the Lizard People taken up before you got here?

I've been gluten free for about a year. Not sure if I have celiacs, but I do get upset stomachs, headaches, fatigue, and general fogginess if I eat it, so I don't eat it. There are two things I hate more than anything now:

It was described to me as a lunch followed by boating on a nice lake for a b-day. Turned out the hostess had no AC, and the only other guest besides my two friends and I was her hermit boyfriend. The meal was, besides the beans and cake, chicken (we're veg) and raw carrot slices (on a cutting board). A large storm…

Yeah but the point is, it's become "trendy" to have a "gluten sensitivity" or "gluten allergy". Additionally, it's somehow become widespread that even if you don't have said "sensitivity" or "allergy" that gluten is unhealthy. My sister is a perfect example. Goes on and on about how gluten is bad for everyone and it…

Or b/c it is trendy. I have never seen people so determined to have an illness/condition that they do not have as we've seen with the gluten-free crazy.

YES. How do people not get that this is not ok?? I'm a lifelong vegetarian, so eating meat would make me sick. I've never once tried to tell someone I'm "allergic" to meat (and not just because of how ridiculous it sounds). Allergies are a medical thing. Allergies can be life-threatening. It is not ok to mess around…
