OhMyGod! I’ve been voting all wrong... I think everyone who voted for manatee beach has been voting all wrong. Bill splitting is depressingly inevitable. :( Actually, that criterion is the only thing that can make these brackets make sense. Thank you for replying to my silly joke in a serious way. This will make the…

THAT IS ALL OF THE TIME!!!! >.< Adding is not that hard!!! FFS we all passed grade 6, we can all pay what we owe!

And you prefer that unfairness to a beach full of manatees; one of of the world’s most innocent creatures? No. Just no. I think miniature ponies lost yesterday, and I can handle that, but it will be a…

Heh. Unfortunately, I doubt that a wedding photo with “Do you want this woman to be your next first lady?” will be very effective.

Yes to this. When I saw the meme with her GQ photo, I initially thought `I’m so glad Sophie Grégoire never did this.’ And then I felt deeply disappointed in myself for my internalized misogyny. To my knowledge, Melania has nothing to be ashamed of, except for having married Trump.

Initially, I thought this could be an interesting and subversive statement about how we perceive and underestimate women: `Here I am. I’m a dangerous woman. I’m even in all this bad-ass leather clothing, but all you see is my bunny ears.’ But then I read the lyrics. She basically is equating ‘being dangerous’ with…

I have never seen miniature ponies in a backyard on TV, but I cannot imagine anything better. How can it lose?

The 15, 000$ was for the venue and food rental, so not at all unreasonable for an average-sized wedding in a city. I have, however, encountered a photographer who had a 12,000 CAD (so ~8,000 USD) package. I was dumbfounded. They weren’t even a celebrity photographer or anything!

I think a lot of vendors do that. For instance, when looking for a DJ I specified that I basically did not give a crap about special bells-and-whistles and he dropped his price by about 50%. They just start with the price for a normal wedding and adjust, which sounds reasonable to me.

I can understand feeling intimidated by the vast selection. I’m a member of the Diva Cup brigade, and it takes me forever to choose brands each time I get stuck having to buy emergency supplies. That said, I have no respect for men who can’t handle purchasing tampons if they’re told the brand and type to buy.

That directly contradicts everything I learned about men from the American Pie franchise and is therefore patently false.

I think it’d be like 2 girls 1 cup; so disgusting, but you just can’t look away.

Oh god... Every time I think of Cruz, I remember him eating the booger from the last debate I watched... I just... I was able to handle 2 girls 1 cup, but 2 Cruz 1 debate is not something I ever want to see. Joanna Rothkopf must have an…

Now I want a Dutch butter cake.

Me too. I think they’re using the term `boxer braid’ specifically for when people wear four cornrows. I think wearing a specific, small number of cornrows can legitimately be a trend. If only they had been more specific, saying something like `The first daughter joins a raft of high-profile beauties sporting a version…

Dutch braid.

Thanks! Best wishes on your wedding too! That dress is gorgeous and perfect for a small wedding. I’m kinda jealous at the idea of a backyard wedding. I wanted a small one, but somehow we’ve ended up with 130 people (~100 are family/parental obligations). Anyway, I read somewhere on the website that they re-stock based…

Yeah, I was tempted to buy one for myself! I just love the print. 4/5 have them have arrived, but they all need to do little adjustments. I think most are going to get it hemmed a bit and use the extra to make proper straps.

I read a bunch of those - until where Kennedy and Willow go forward in time, I think - but I found them unsatisfying compared to the show. :(

Wow! I was eyeing the Classiest Place on Earth dress for months before asking my bridesmaids to purchase it a few weeks ago. Lucky I did, because with this launch almost all the sizes are now gone!

Beautifully said.

Clearly you and I are very different people. It seems that my love of the Alien franchise is unconditional; I even liked Alien vs Predator. Also, I did not know Whedon was back on twitter (only Nihilist Arby’s is worth following), but I am glad to hear he’s not wasting his precious time on that, regardless of the…
