My husband is super long-legged and tall and I have to practically jog to keep up with him so I've become a pretty fast walker considering my short legs. I CAN'T DEAL with people who stop in the middle of anywhere for any reason. I really don't mind slow walkers as long as I can get around them reasonably easily but…

My favorite genre of Other People's Kids is what I like to call the "Cartman Child". This child is overweight and decked out in name-brand attire from places like Abercrombie and has at least one electronic device gripped in its undoubtedly sticky hand. You can just tell that the parents give the Cartman Child…

I wish Kenya on Real Housewives of Atlanta would just propose to her man so he can be caught in his bullshit already. He would pretty much either need to say yes or admit that he does not want to marry her. I feel really bad for her being the focus of the sad trombone scenes this season pretty much all because she's…

Definitely a "shorty" breed. I saw an Animal Planet show about a breed that was a cross of a ragamuffin and a munchkin (very cute, long hair, stubby little legs) and a lot of those cats had extra toes and weird-looking feet, plus the snub-face underbite look. I'm fairly certainly lil' Tard here is one of them.

I would choose the animal dying the way nature intended it to rather than a human blasting it with a piece of lead, yes. Killing a wolf that is being tracked as part of a national park's population does in fact seem like an unfortunate end that is worse than if that wolf had been allowed to die of natural causes,…

Yeah gotta say a natural death from whatever natural occurrence beats a bullet-induced death any day.

I think I might be in love with that Musk Ox. What an adorable gorgeous creature!

NPR had a piece recently on the rising popularity of sex shops in China, and that it is looked at as more of a "good sex life = good health" thing than a tittilating "eww look at the porn dvd covers" kind of thing. Interesting stuff.

Ugh the guy sounds like a real douche BUT anyone who would choose to go to some frou-frou French restaurant ON THANKSGIVING deserves the shitty pumpkin pie she gets. I have a head chef for a father-in-law and it has given me some serious perspective on customer service in the food industry.

*Thanks the higher power for her oral-loving (both ways) husband*

I just don't get it. I'm newly married and can see having a kid or two at some point in the future. I even like smart, polite kids who are fun to talk to, like my new cousins-in-law who are totally awesome. I just DON'T GET how calling something a "child" can get so many people freaked out and up in arms. It's not a…

Yikes, the header example in the LAT article makes the lady look like she's trying to cover up terrible domestic abuse bruises with makeup.

He was JUST TOO TIE-TIE to make it all the way out without a nap.

The actor said on NPR that he and Helen Hunt did not know each other before starting to shoot scenes, and that the scenes were done in chronological order, so that as they are getting to know each other in real life it's adding to the awkwardness of that same idea on screen. For what it's worth! I save my theater…

I just got the Whiterun horse emblem from Skyrim on my inner forearm thanks to a nice high-res fan art I found. Love it and have gotten many compliments already.

The guy who stalked Benson has been in at least four episodes, all wildly different characters. Very confusing!

Number One Rule of Law & Order: If an actor is billed as a guest star or credited in the episode description on cable, HE OR SHE IS DEFINITELY THE MURDERER/RAPIST/BAD PERSON. Guaranteed.

Great read - your husband is a saint and your kid was ROBBED in Outfit of Choice!!

My first "real job" boss was a huge fan of "Coffee is for closers". While it was not an official rule you could tell he kind of wanted it to be. I will say that the moral of making sure you finish a job has stuck with me - it's crazy how much gets "started" that will never get "finished".

Great article, Lindy. You are totally awesome and as a mostly-Gawker-commenter I gotta say you keep me coming back to what is starting to feel like home.
