"Lie low ... There's no need to inject yourself into the story."

If people are willing to pay for this, and these guys are willing to do it, and everyone is having a good time, I say more power to them!

I'm a swing vote. I love both cats and dogs (but I think I love dogs just a little bit more, except that I have a cat right now and her awesomeness colors my perceptions a bit)

I think, considering the way Congress is attempting to treat Planned Parenthood, this is an incredibly important distinction! c'mon, Jez!

When I was a kid, my grandmother had a squirrel monkey. He had a big cage in the kitchen, and I was allowed to feed him marshmallows (the tiny ones, kept in the fridge, I usually snuck one for myself too). We took him to the park on a harness and I've seen pictures of my dad with him at some outdoor event. Oh I loved…

my grandmother had a monkey, and he was awesome. I certainly wouldn't suggest others go out and get monkeys, but it's not necessarily terrible. he had a large cage and got out often - we took him out on a harness to the park, outdoor events, etc. he ate marshmallows from the fridge.

our "neighbors" are our landlords - we live in a basement apartment of a house with a small family (mom, dad, 5-yo and newborn boys). most things I've found I can just ignore, where I might have said something otherwise. they are incredibly sweet people, but the 5-yo boy run-stomps so much during the day that…

yes, people were doing the cellphone-light thing at concerts for years before iPhone, but the way cameras and screen sizes are on smartphones now, you see people taking pictures instead of using the screen light for the sake of the light. on the one hand, I'm honestly impressed with what I can see some phone cameras…

but there's such a simple solution... turn off auto-flash, people!

ok. I've had the biopsy-colposcopy, and it hurt like a bitch and I had cramps for the next 24 hours, but goddamn if I didn't just laugh my face off at "biopsy-kitten-claws"

he's fallen victim to exactly what the anti-choicers want. they call themselves "pro-life" for this very reason. it insinuates that pro-choice = anti-life, or pro-abortion (like, cheerleading it rather than defending the often unfortunate necessity of it.)

UGH I hate that question. It's just SO. SKEEVY. And somehow it's more annoying to be asked "do the curtains match the drapes?" 'cause they can't even be bothered to get their gross question right. They just want to vaguely reference my pubes. ew ew gross.

my aunt's red hair has been gradually changing to a pretty cool silvery shade. I'm hoping for that. but the transition is tough. I may try dye at first. oh lordy.

HAH! Lauren Ambrose is actually one of the few I sort of agree with too! I get told Drew Barrymore (who, in a particular Covergirl commercial, I actually do look like her) and Julianne Moore (who I can only hope I will look like when I'm older *crosses fingers*)

but...do you also kind of keep a mental tally of "natural" vs "bottle" redheads you meet? I do. I'm not exactly proud of it.

I think it just follows historical discrimination - redheads were "unnatural", often thought to be witches, satanists, savages, vampires, etc. I've read that in Britain it stems more from the history between the English and Irish. (but to be fair, I'm a blissfully ignorant red-headed American who's just done a little…

as a natural redhead, I am immediately skeeved out by guys who claim they "love redheads". I've dated a few, and in each case I was "their first redhead" - a statement which only made it that much skeevier.

my brother is like that. I'm paley pale pale pinkish with a more bright/orangey red hair and freckles, while my brother is a slightly olive/tan with freckles and a deeper, more auburney red. we went to Hawaii. he came back tan, I came back a blistery lobster despite 4 gallons of sunscreen applied daily.

Listen, I'll admit I love being a redhead. I relish in the fact that I'm "different" somehow (not that different) and there's an automatic kinship/rivalry with every other "true" ginger I meet. My brother and I both have red hair (my parents both deep brunettes. we get the "mailman" joke all the time, and considering…

I do! But I'm American and blissfully unaware of the discrimination connected to it I've only heard about existing in other countries.
