You just impressed the hell out of me. Tell me more about french blue vs. periwinkle, big boy.

Gall is right!

"The only time I can see people not hating the word is when it wasn't being talked about at all."

I don't specialize in sub-grouping feminists, but I'd still like to reply.

No, what marks you as old is the fact you didn't take 3 seconds to google it :-)

I think your bf is great for saying that. If more men stood up to people who make jokes about rape, the world would be a better place.

But didn't the rapist in the article above make a joke about how many roofies he put in the author's drink, as he was giving her the drink?

It was honestly no big whup. I watched cause I wanted to see how terrible it could get before I turned it off. It was so transparent and cliche that it was unbelievable, you know? It felt utterly unreal. Not that I wanted real! But I expected to be at least shocked. It was meh.

Well, it's true that I tended to be grateful to my mother, rest her soul. I think there is some merit to your argument that you raised your daughter to expect the world, so she expects nothing less! I'm sorry she doesn't understand what you sacrificed for her.

That is WAY beyond the level of party my mom threw for us. We had a cake, and a sprinkler outside (July birthdays for 5 of us) and ONE present. To this day, I expect nothing on my birthday except dinner (I choose the dinner!) and some cake.

Thank you for standing up against slander towards Neaderthals. I mean it. I love them and I hate the bad rap they get.

My cat also loves tomato sauce. And spinach. Raw spinach. She goes nuts for it.

When I tell my cat how fat she is, she agrees with me and is VERY PROUD.

Oh, my sweet Jebus, that is funny.

This made me really laugh, imagining the people on the other side of the broadcast, being like, "wtf is this guy doing?".

Dude, your daughter is me. Well, kinda. But I never took notes, and instead just listened to what the teacher was saying. Because I was listening well, I was able to see the gaps in my own knowledge and ask questions while the teacher was teaching the subject. And I wouldn't forget what I had learned because I…

What I found in college was that if I didn't take notes, but instead fully engaged myself in listening to the Professor and asking pertinent questions where necessary, I did A LOT BETTER in school. And I think it was because I was truly understanding the material. Then, when I went to study for a test, I just reviewed…

When I want to take a quick nap in the afternoon, I put my cat on the pillow right next to my ear, like literally on my ear, and then I pet her until the purr really gets going. The combination of warm kitty back and the sound/vibration of the purring puts me instantly to sleep. I've often fantasized about creating a…

Thank you for this.

The car chase scene from Jack Reacher was weirdly old-school and really good.
