@urbanspelunker: hehe good! It takes a moment to get going, but by the time the cat got to the chair I was guffawing away my Monday morning blues :)

Ah! That's my second awesome cat vid of the day! What a good week so far. Here's the first:

I know that people like to portray anorexia as an illness of vanity, but that's about as far from the truth as you can get.

@ladyelle82: I didn't notice that! That is BEYOND weird. If that's sarcasm... I missed the boat.

@sarrible: I read about that kid. He's basically being penalized for being ridiculously better than other kids his age. With the little league team, the parents felt that having someone so good took the fun out of it for other kids, deterring them from learning sportsmanship, teamwork, etc. in a pressure-free…

@ModelLiberation: Sigh. I wish I could afford to buy their products in the first place, so that they would feel the loss when I stopped!

Yeah, we need to focus on McCain and on the issues. There's no way to win with her — the base that loves her isn't going to respond to logical arguments attacking her position as the family values everywoman-candidate. Focusing on her is doing us no good — we're already pretty divided on Mrs. Palin — let's move on!

@steampoweredboy: Ha! I love the phrase "Gets my Irish up"! I actually went back and reread your comment w/ a brogue.

@maude_flanders: I don't blame you... as someone who made it through the clip (with the help of some ice cream) I can say: have hope! McCain is going to have a hard time answering questions clearly at debate time.

My bf has some friends who are really awesome, and some that are total dickbags. I learned long ago not to argue with him about why his dickbag friends are so dickbaggy — it's useless.

@sybann: agreed, 100%. my point is that the same dumb decision made by a woman has completely different ramifications. that's all. go condoms.

@clevernamehere: Women are fully allowed to have sex with a man they don't want to stay with, so why is it a problem that he had sex with a woman he didn't intend on having a relationship with?

@thelawschooldropout: That's not very mature of him.

@pandorasmittens: dubibious has a nice ring! I'm going to start using it. And I'll credit it to you :)

Fall florals really ARE in style.... rock out Rebster! You look great.

It's TyraBot v2.0!

@clevernamehere: True, but she made the decision to keep the baby all by herself. My point is that currently, women are in control of 100% of the decision to abort or keep a child, but that decision affects the other person in a huge way. Anytime someone has complete control over a choice that has massive…

I hate to admit it, because I think she has an annoying mouth, but she looks kinda hot. Ugh.

@DaphneD: I could start that site for my boyfriend! He slept with a girl he worked with a few times, got her pregnant, and a few years later (after the other purported father left the scene) she contacted us and told us he had a daughter. It was rough.

@radiomayonnaise: This is supposed to be at dinner, right? Are you sure they didn't say "Slip a hair tie around his raddichio?"
