Ow, my brain hurts just from that excerpt. I'll pass on the stupid, thanks.

@PixiePie: I don't think the article was saying that suicide rates are higher among models. I think the point of it was to explore why so many models commit suicide or abuse drugs or alcohol. The group with the highest rate of suicide is people with depression. Models have a lot of pressure on them, from inside their…
I agree with you and your friend; it's not surprising to me at all, given how our society — and even other societies — pressure models to be "perfect." There needs to be more awareness, the high standards held for models need to go down, and people in general need to stop thinking that models are just thin creatures…
@hellosunshine: Same here. It would never even occur to me to recycle leftover wine. If, after a night, there's some left, it would definitely get used the next night!
Very cool!
That's funny, because I just recently set up my flavors.me: [flavors.me] I wish I had more backend control, though. I'd rather just design my own splash in CSS and HTML than sit around tweaking things with their UI — which is pretty decent, by the way, but I am much more comfortable "writing" my design out.
@DangerousLiberal: I love my Sprint service. I've never had a major problem with them.
Nope; Pocket drops the most calls! Any time someone I know calls me from their Pocket phone, I anticipate dropped calls, random busy tones while talking, blank spots while talking, garbled voices while talking... Ah, the list goes on!
@taz20075: That's a really good idea!
@k-napped: I don't think it has anything to do with laziness. It's all cultural difference. America is a go-go-go-go-don'tstop-go-go country, whereas European countries are much more relaxed. I wish we were more like those countries who mandate several weeks of vacation time. At the company I work part-time for, I…
My uncle did this not too long ago. It's awesome!
But then you miss out on fifteen extra minutes of yaaaaawn!
@hitchcockblonde: I agree!
@hitchcockblonde: I agree.
@spanky: Then that's totally different. I'm still not going to be paranoid about it, though.
@pixelsnader: Enough people think my name is Eliza as it is!
@hitchcockblonde: Nope, can't say that I have! This explains everything now.
@clairedeloony: Damn, I didn't get the memo!
@agavepulquero: I agree. Especially being that i work from home 70% of the time, it's hard to separate work time and relaxation time. I'm hoping it'll get easier when I quit my PT job and go FT with my side business.
