Don't even get me started on the cost of boys' toys. My brother and I collect Transformers and they are freaking high. I'm going to buy brodicon a Target exclusive that's over $60.

I didn't like the name Kala for the first few years of my life and I didn't even answer to it. I started to love my name when I learned what my name meant in different parts of the world. I loved it more when I realized I would be the only Kala in a given setting.

Infection, indeed

I would like to see that as well. My cousin has been a L&D nurse since 06/07 and she saw a direct correlation between the popularity of the show That's So Raven and the number of moms the named their kid Raven.

The problem with that line of thinking is it's based on how you would treat a kid with an "embarrassing" name and not how kids are actually treated. I went to schools where kids had some really interesting names and those kids didn't get picked on by their peers because they didn't have a popular name. Kids with…

At least you wanted your dolls to be headless. I had a Glitter'n'Gold Jem that I loved more than pizza on Friday. I tried to move her head around to comb her hair and I cracked off part of her neck socket. I still played with her, but my heart was broken.

Aren't those dolls high? I don't know much about AG because I stopped playing with dolls in 89.

I'm not a Barbie fan for real, but I wish more moms remembered how they played with Barbies as kids. Maybe some anti-Barbie moms would realize that their little girls may not play with dolls the way Mattel wants them too. I'm not a good example because all my dolls did was practice gymnastics, hang out and have love…

That's why I never let either of my Ken dolls drive.

I felt the show should have ended after season three. I tried to watch season four, but between the day change and the stories, I was through.

The the comments in this things are giving lots and lots of life. How the disco dancing hell is she going to call women that aren't happy with her actions catty, when what she did can easily fall under the same umbrella. I want to know what makes her jugemental brag ok to her? Maybe I don't because it may drive me…

Sometimes they fuck up and show something historical.

Ms Thing's "advise" is one of the reasons I stopped reading Slate years ago. Her gift giving advice is even worse.

Why did you have to remind me of the time my then church said they god a postcard marked Hell?

I'm not a big fan of his older, whiny stuff, but I like his new album.

Is he sure he's no 2 minute man, he gets gassed out alot now with his all show body.

I've noticed that I have a better chance of shopping like a sane person on Black Friday because all the psychopath shoppers start going crazy when I'm still hopped up on stuffing. However, I feel for the retail folks that don't get to spend the holidays the way they want to because they have to deal with the half…

I want to shake my head, but my own damn mom gave me rooster-let bangs. My mom hates having hair in her face and she tried to pass that complex to me with all her might. She was not happy when I came home with bangs to go with my first relaxer. Anyway, the next time she did my hair, she gave me rooster bangs to get…

The concept seems odd to you because it is odd. I know nude shoes are suppose to make your legs look longer and are "tasteful". I'd like to know what's tasteful about wearing shoes that look like they are made out of band-aids. I'd also like to know how shoes that make your feet look like gargoyles make your legs…

We should have known things weren't going to end well for her. She was the worst witch when she was a kid.
