I forgot that detail.

This was how a major character in The Wire supposedly died (hanging himself with a belt on a doorknob). Spoiler alert: he was actually strangled and then it was staged to look like a suicide. So even though he didn't die this way, the coroner accepted that he could have/did die this way.

I'm about the same age, and I think I thought the same thing at the time. Maybe the costuming aged them up a bit in the TV show? Or it was just the perspective that 13 seemed so old and mature when I was 7, but when I was 11 and actually knew some 13-year-olds, I realized that they weren't that much more grown-up that…

Close. In the movie, she was Mary-Anne.

ABC tried to defend themselves by saying that Scholastic and Martin wanted BSC to be live-action, but the network said animated shows were better for reruns. This was right in the middle of the very successful run of Saved by the Bell on NBC.

I was also trying to read a thread on my phone and it was so confusing because I think it was featuring more starred posts before others, so the thread of conversation made no sense.

I remember seeing it on HBO during a free preview when I was a kid and begging my parents to subscribe because that was the only way I'd be able to watch it.

If you're looking for a book but can't remember the title, you should write into The Vine. It's an advice column, but Sarah D. Bunting features Ask the Readers regularly.

The transhumanism/anto-death book got me thinking about post-human, dystopian stories. What are your favorite movies, books, TV shows, comics, etc. that you'd recommend?

When I see the phrase "Celebrity Mom" I assume it's a story about a celebrity who is a mom using their fame to endorse or decry something about raising kids. See, Jenny McCarthy and vaccines, or Mayim Bialik and attachment parenting.

It reads like the mental process of a 6 year-old

Okay, so even if technology and medicine can keep people alive indefinitely, we are going to run out of resources on this planet (if we or our sun don't destroy it completely first). So I guess the theory is also that we'll just Firefly out of this place first?

It also drives me crazy that GOPs try to argue that Dems focus on social issues because they're trying to appeal to your *GASP* emotions, which we all know that are a symptom of femininity. How can you call yourself a real man if you allow yourself to care about gay marriage and health care? Don't let them emasculate…

Maybe they're not having any bridesmaids or groomsmen, so it kind of falls on good friends to organize bachelor(ette) parties or showers? But you shouldn't ask anyone to do that. If I had a good friend who wanted a small, casual wedding without the expense or effort of a bridal party, I'd probably get together with my…

Yeah, if that's the case, then maybe LW1's boyfriend is also LW3's BFF's racist husband.

According to this, a $600 wedding cake can feed up to 100 people. I don't consider 100 attendees to be "small and intimate." It's not big, but it's not small and intimate. My boyfriend's brother is getting married this summer and it just parents, siblings, and grandparents who are invited; an uncle who is also the…

If she truly wants to be kid-friendly, she should consider leaving the foreplay in the bedroom because trying to have it both ways makes parenting for some harder than it should be.

Well, the first photo was Photoshopped, but this photo definitely wasn't.

I know that I'm really friends with someone if I see their engagement/baby announcement photo and don't hide it.

When he started his career, he was a goofy 13-year-old on The Disney Channel's Even Stevens. I even liked him in Holes! It wasn't until he did Indy Jones 4 and the Transformer series that I started giving him side-eye.
