Ugh, I had a coworker this summer who mansplained EVERYTHING. He was so sickeningly sexist, especially when he got called out on his various faux pas(s? dunno how to pluralize that) when it came to his attention that I out-fucking-ranked him. It was a small project, so it hadn't seemed necessary to bring it up until

Oh, mine aren't that authentic looking, although the seams on the side look for realsies. This pair was definitely made to have tunics over them :P

Agreed! I've only recently added this to my fashion palette, and I have been thrilled with both the sexiness and comfiness of such ensembles.

I am in the "very few pairs of leggings are pants" camp. I possess several sets of leggings that I wear with very short sweater dresses that barely cover my ass. Those leggings are not pants, but those dresses are not exactly shirts. I do have a few tunics which are definitely shirts, and I (shamefully) have a pair of

Yeah, totally! First, bobby pins are your friend. Go out right now and buy a package of the cool ones that are approximately the same color as your hair. Second, invest some time in front of the mirror figuring out the best way to pin back/up the very front of your hair/bangs. You can do a lot of things with the rest

Dude, yes. My last relationship failed for many reasons, but it was (in the end) a combination of shit-or-get-off-the-pot (I was ready to get married/talk about babies—we had been together for ten fucking years) and me feeling like I couldn't be completely honest about my own feelings and issues (personal and

Yeah, I guess that would limit your options, then :/

I *refuse* to straighten my hair in order to be considered professional. Fuck. That. Noise. Instead, I've perfected several curly-hair friendly updoes and ways of keeping my hair out of my face. It helps that I've discovered how to keep my hair non-frizzy (for the most part...excluding crazy weather days or when I

Oh man, my husband is fairly slight, and his only suit jacket is cut waaaaay too wide through the shoulders. Looking back at our elopement photos, it's really obvious. The man is getting a skinny cut suit before my sister's wedding (which he will likely also wear to our church wedding), and it's gonna be HAWT. He was

Yeeeeaaaahhhhh...I was going through my lipsticks and realized I've had some of them for like...I mean...an EMBARRASSING period of time. They still look pretty, but they're like, weird and sticky and smell like Vaseline (pretty sure they did NOT smell like that in the past). I think it's just that whatever lipid base

Take it! No stealing necessary :D And congrats! It's fun stuff!

I guess I've come close to using a bottle of topcoat in a year. If I had to replace my entire nailpolish collection yearly, I would not have any nailpolish—because, I would go bankrupt replacing $8 bottles of fancy colors. Insanity.

I think sometimes the formula becomes unstable, but I have only ever encountered this with REALLY absurdly old bottles. Like, 10 years old. It's not evaporation (not sticky), but it just doesn't go on right or hold together properly.

Yeah, I don't know if my mom's are visible at all nowadays, but I remember them from when I was small. Husband's are not hugely noticeable (he's 31), but they're still there if you're looking.

I would have had to run across the room to grab mine off the floor.

That's a super ignorant thing to say. My mom has one too, and she was born in the late '50s in rural Missouri. It's true that most younger people born in the US don't have them, but "third world citizens?" What a gross thing to say—on several levels. I actually find it to be an interesting visual marker of who's

I call shenanigans on nail polish lasting for one year. Even in the odd case that I have a bottle get sticky, there are several polish thinners available that work like magic.

I've only ever gotten serum tests because I've always had my tests done in the States and brought my papers with me. This is all very useful to know, though :)

Hm, this explains why European countries always send people for chest x-rays instead of serum tests. Mystery solved, thanks! That always seemed so strange to me. (Also, this is useful information that my husband probably knows, but I didn't yet) (He is a shiny new husband, still!)

My husband has three marks on his upper arms from Eastern European Communist regime state-mandated vaccinations. You know what he doesn't have? Preventable-via-vaccination diseases.
