Aw, that's great! I love breed rescues because the staff are informed and compassionate. People think getting a dog from a breeder is 'safer' but you can easily find disreputable breeders just looking to make a buck rather than worrying about the welfare of their dogs.

Also, don't forget that you can both get the breed that you want AND get a shelter dog. It's usually a longer process, but for many first-time dog owners the extra wait is probably good - you can spend the time buying all the equipment your dog will need and preparing your house for your new companion.

Many people living in the UK don't have clothes dryers so hanging laundry to dry around the house is pretty common. Somewhat ironically, the UK is also one of the last places in the world that needs extra humidity.

Yeah, I also find that when men in hetero couples open up their relationships, they're surprised that their female partners get inundated with offers while they tend to struggle to find opportunities. Suddenly the whole situation becomes a lot less appealing - the fantasy is all about what THEY want but the reality is…

I think it's infinitely harder to open up a relationship later on than it is to start off that way. Also, I've noticed that a lot of people (particularly straight males) focus on the 'fun' part of polyamory without really thinking through the fact that it's not just more sex, it's more relationships, more emotional…

Thank you for the response! It's exciting to know that you're looking at expanding the range of sizes you offer. :)

I like that idea! "Inspire me!" sounds fun when you're just looking for ideas to spice up your wardrobe, but if you're seriously shopping then you could switch to "only show my size/price range" and get stuff you can actually buy.

Thanks for getting in touch! I think your suggestion of putting an indicator to show which options are available in a specific size would be great. Or the ability to put in a range of sizes that I'm interested in, maybe? Like I'd only want to see things within a size or two of my own, because anything further away…

The survey thing is a great tip too! I live in the UK but grew up in the USA so I fly back pretty frequently to visit family and United has the best connections for my location - but even so it can be two years in between United flights, so I have to keep an eye on the miles to make sure they don't expire.

This is also really handy if your miles are about to expire. In United's program, for example, miles expire after 18 months of no activity. Getting even an overpriced bouquet of flowers is still cheaper than most plane tickets, so that's something to keep in mind.

This is a solid idea, but the execution is terrible. The sizes go up to XXL in tops, 16 in dresses and 20 in pants, which is okay but won't work for everyone (especially bearing in mind that the average dress size in the USA is a 14, so some larger sizes would be welcome). Also, the suggestions you get don't actually…

I can't speak for the OP, but I wouldn't date a single parent with an eye to a serious relationship either. I just don't like children and have no desire to be a parent or step-parent. I live in an urban area where the population of single people without children in their 20s/30s/40s is large enough that I don't need…

Oh yeah, I also use the Hibiscrub to clean the heads of my Clairisonic! It's just great stuff all around.

I absolutely could not disagree more with this comment. My husband died at age 31. We'd been together for 11 years and married for 8 (yes we got married younger than many people, but it actually worked quite well for us). After he died I went to therapy and was involved in a group for young widows and widowers, and…

Top tip! I live in the UK so haven't actually been to a Walgreens or CVS in a few years - I was working from memory. But I'll tell my friends and family in the States! Every one I know keeps a bottle just in case for both the humans and pets in their lives. :)

It's good stuff! I also find the smell to be reassuringly antiseptic. Hibiclens is very similar (and a bit easier to find at Walgreens/CVS). It's the same active ingredient but I think in a slightly more dilute formula, though you'd have to check the ingredients to be sure.

Hibiscrub, followed by a AHA or BHA lotion. Hibiscrub is what surgeons use to scrub up with before surgery and it kills yeast, fungus, germs - even MRSA. Actually, I discovered it when my husband contracted MRSA and we both bathed in it for two weeks. It really, really helped with my underboob area and also made my…

I'm working my way through the Keep now, and two things that aren't immediately clear but that people might want to know: 1) importing your saved games into the keep only imports characters and achievements, not the actual choices you made in your games, and thus 2) I'm guessing that means that no matter what platform…

It's correct along the bottom of the graph. The timeline on the bottom starts in July 2013 then runs July - October - 2014 - April - July - October. It's not immediately clear that it runs across two calendar years, though. ETA: And yeah, the edits in red at the top are wrong!

Exactly. These comments are 100% not okay.
