Haven't you guys been listening to Rand Paul? This is for their own good! If you cut off heating assistance, it will teach people to get warmer! They'll stop being lazy and start producing more natural body heat. You bleeding heart libs just want to make everyone dependent on artificial heat...

Hey, I did a lot of research on wine drinking when I studied abroad in Adelaide! ...of course, it was all on what's my favorite kind of wine, and how drunk will you get if you play beer pong with goon (really cheap wine) instead? The answers are Malbec, and exceedingly drunk.

I was late this morning, the rain made my hair frizz, I slipped and fell on the wet metro platform on the way into work in front of hundreds of people, I finished up a report I had due for work only to be told it was only half complete, and I stress-ate half a bag of M&Ms after lunch. Oh, and I forgot my gym shoes, so…

So I really like the way most men look with some scruff (not a full-on beard, mind you, but 5 oclock shadow to Ben Affleck in Argo at the MOST). BUT, I hate hate hate kissing men with facial hair. It's a conundrum!

Wait, what does my Saturday night routine have to do with anything? I don't watch this shit!

The law in your state will not allow your document directing health care to take effect if you are pregnant and your doctors believe the fetus could be brought to term while you are receiving life-sustaining treatment.

I got stopped at the airport just last night because my ticket had both my maiden name and my married name on it (husband's computer autopopulated, when we called the airline, they wouldn't 'change' the name, but they could add to it...). It was a pain and I had to show my marriage certificate to prove that I was…

So at 14 weeks, she has the legal right to an abortion, regardless of every "pro-life" obstacle out there. As her power of attorney, couldn't the husband request an abortion, and then pull the plug?

My dog likes to poop in the neighbor's flower pot. I'm generally too busy hoping the neighbor hasn't seen us to determine which direction we're facing.

But... but REAL science says that denyinggay people the right to get married is dangerous to their health and has absolutely no impact on us heteros.

Ahh ... ok, so why is it the cultural/societal norm?

Two friends of mine from college got married and just picked a new last name together. They wanted something that defined the new family they were starting. I thought that was beautiful, but his grandfather had a really hard time with it. It goes against what's "accepted" by society...

I never once 'insisted that women keep their names.' I did, in fact, change my last name when my husband and I got married. Mainly because of the legal and tax implications keeping it would have had. But it was literally a changing of the legal identity I'd had for more than 28 years to someone my colleagues couldn't…

Right, and that's your choice, but you said it yourself - it's patriarchal. Just because it's a seamless, intrinsic part of our culture doesn't mean it's right. I'd suggest reading Lindy West's piece on changing last names for a great perspective on the practice.

I'm recently married and only made the decision to change my last name (about 4 months after the wedding) because it was such a hassle to do anything with a different last name from my husband. I had to carry my marriage certificate everywhere. I'm expecting taxes this year to be a blast.

She's giving up her identity to become part of his identity... how would you feel if your wife asked you to take her last name?

Oooh Vanderbilt's SAE was just in the news not that long ago... This Is What Happens When Old Drunk Alumni Trash And Poop A Vanderbilt Frat House On Homecoming To The Tune Of $12,000

My mother's (male) dog frantically licks my (male) dog's penis every time they're together. It's ... uncomfortable. For everyone. Except probably my mom's dog.

Elizabeth Warren? No? *sad face* Warren/Sanders 2024!

So daily sexual assault, right? I mean, why are we dancing around that term? Are they trying to pretend its a 'health' matter or something?
