Dude, I apologize. I am one of those women with dominant cycles, and I've always sucked roomies into my cycle. Sorry about my All Powerful Ovaries, BotanyBuff...

Yes, I agree. My husband and I eloped a few weeks ago, and it was really awesome. We've also decided to have a church wedding in his home country, and he keeps saying that it doesn't matter what he thinks. It does! It really does! These decisions should be joint decisions!

I was telling my Eastern European husband about "toxins" last night, and I thought his eyebrows were going to jump off his face.

High five for dangerous q-tip use!! My husband gets after me for walking around with q-tips sticking out of my ears. They are busy soaking up watery ear-wax so I don't have to jam them through my ear-drums, but I'm pretty sure he's convinced that I'm going to trip and end p with a q-tip in my brain.

Well, I have really curly hair...and it was the late 90s so I was going for the Jennifer Aniston look, I'm sure. I had one of those giant ones, and I always used it in one deft movement: start at the roots, slowly run down the hair to straighten, then roll it up while the hair is still hot. Boom. Fat 90s curls. I've…

Naw, I still 100% prefer a curling iron. I have actually been straightening my hair with a curling iron since I was in 5th or 6th grade (ca. 1997). If I remember, flat irons were not really common then, since it was still the age of perms and crimped hair. I got a giant curling iron (1.5" barrel) for bang-curling…

Agreed. One should not be able to roll a crepe with a fork. NOPE.

My ex and I had a big problem with this. He was raised with his dad giving in to his insane mother's every whim because his dad didn't feel it was worth the argument. This is bad on its own. It's even worse when the partner who does it then acts like a fucking martyr constantly, and like he's constantly doing the…

It's really interesting how in the States we think of condoms mainly to be used as BC, while in a lot of other places (I'm thinking specifically Europe, from my own experiences) people are a lot more concerned about STIs and, as a result, view condoms primarily as STI-prevention rather than baby-prevention. My husband…

They're also really amazing at misplacing luggage...but I definitely agree that their food is amazing. We even had a hot meal in the ~1 hr flight between Athens and Istanbul.

I was in Germany this past week, and it was CRAZY. Like, an entire week or more of Halloween. I wish we could have afforded to go out more in the evenings to people watch.

Damn! I'm in A2 also. It is just ridiculous to the extreme, honestly. I hope she had a speedy recovery!!!

He's delicious...and now I want to watch Lost just to see him.

Awwwwww! I'm so happy that some of the Sochi puppies are finding good homes.

Thank you! No one out of the greys is saying anything. Those little guys are 100% domesticated breeds. And cute. And I definitely wish to be enveloped by a herd of bunnies. A gaggle of bunnies? A flock of bunnies? My vocabulary lacks, as I've never had to talk about this many bunnies at one time.

DAMMIT Michigan! When I went in for my physical, they told me I need to get a new Tetanus booster (even though I should be good for 4 more years) because my last one didn't include a pertussis booster. Why? Because there is a resurgence of mother. fucking. whooping. cough. In Michigan. In 2014. /rageblackout

Jesus, I forgot how beautiful he is....

I'm saving my horrible-movie allowance for Pompeii, personally.

Holy, holy hell.

I do telephone surveys, and you'll be happy to know that our race and ethnicity options all allow for multiple answers :) I think quantitative data collection is going there, but a lot of people are using the same shit they've been using for foooorrrrrrever.
