I appreciate your love and concern for your former MIL and her experience with MS, but it is a real bummer for me to read that my life (MS diagnosis, cane user, decreased vision, numb or in pain much of the time) isn’t something you’d wish on your worst enemy. I don’t like having MS, it’s really hard to be newly…

MS sucks.

Huh? I don’t remember the last time I went to a party that wasn’t at someone’s house. I ain’t got time for nightclubs or crowded bars.     #old     

Nautical theme, huh? You know sailors use other knots, right? Like, prettier ones?

Yes, this! Details clearly suggest that this is not your typical “let me embarass you in public” stunt proposal, but more of a sweet in-joke.

This also adresses some people’s concerns as to who paid for this. My uneducated hunch is: nobody. It was more of a “hey, can you do me a favor for 15-30 minutes” thing between…

The headline makes this sound a lot worse than it is. It was kind of sweet. It’s just a room full of people they both know, mostly family.

That’s a pretty good price for including the drinks package.  Those things are expensive

Thank you for bringing up Sally Yates.  She’s exactly the kind of person that we need more of.

Dammit, I sure hope someone else starts selling DexFlex shoes.  Their ballet flats are amazing.

So I’d encourage you to research that. They are finding that even with metabolic issues, the predictor of health is physical activity. In other words, its no the fat, its not moving. A sedentary thin person can probably get away with it better than a sedentary fat person, but movement and rigorous exercise limits the…

My “unhealthy” (because“overweight”) friend can easily run ten miles in one go, and has a resting heart rate that’s half of mine — yet because I’m skinny, no one stops me and tells me to “get healthy.”

Not making fun of people’s laugh. I’ve literally seen the joy leave a person’s face after making a joke about someone’s laugh. Makes me sad thinking about it.

Agreed. As a proud former slut myself, paid sex workers, other sluts, even gold diggers are fine by me. Asshole bigoted gold diggers, sluts, et all don’t get a pass just because they are sluts, etc.

I have been an out and proud slut for many a long year. I don’t slut shame.

You seem to miss the point, which is, keep that shit, whatever your beliefs are, to yourself. Some don’t, and I find it annoying.

I read on the internet (so it must be true) of bars where there is a sign in the ladies’ room to the effect of “If you are feeling uncomfortable ask for Rhonda [or some other name]”. You ask the bartender for Rhonda, he says “She’s working in the kitchen,” and he shows you out the back way where they have called you…

We need a proverbial “moon shot” into terraforming technology.

Did you...did you even read the article? Or did you read the headline and immediately come trotting into the comments section to give us your opinion? I’m betting on the latter. God knows you can’t actually read the article, you might learn something, and if you learn something, you might question your almighty…

Is there something with you people that the word “women” is so difficult to say? Does it have some icky connotation so you have to use terminology more commonly used to denote an animal’s gender?

She also spilled the beans about a new book she’s working on: a revised version of her no-nonsense sexual health guide, Sex for Dummies, originally published in 1995. This time, she’s coming after millennials.
