That's a fair point - BAH is not the same as COL. I'm sorry if my comment came off as negative — I agree that military pay is low, but wanted to clarify that there are locality adjustments to pay. When I was enlisted, I made do by living with a roommate until I could afford my own place. But I understand that's not an…

You do not need to justify your financial life to a jerk. We all know how absurd the pay grade is for people in the military. To say nothing of the number that become homeless once they leave. That troll can go suck on a rotten egg.

Finally: a reason to hate Jenny McCarthy.

Doritos are not allowed in our house. If I buy a bag, it will live on the couch between my husband and I until it's gone and we hate ourselves.

Seconded. I never buy them myself because I live alone, but my mom had a bag the last time I was home. I took a few to eat while I was reading at the table, and ended up eating half the bag before I realized what was happening. Why are you so delicious, Doritos?!

Sandra Boynton tried to warn us:

Shit. And the view from my high horse was SO NICE.

Growing up, I never knew it was a thing to keep bottles of ketchup in the house because my mom would have us raid the ketchup packets whenever we went to McDonald's. Nowadays she'll drop a few grand…

Too bad for Terry that photoshop doesn't have a "remove rape" tool.

EW GROSS SHE LOOKS LIKE A MONSTER

Confused about the implication that she doesn't work. Maybe her career isn't as academically inspired as being a lawyer, or a doctor, or a writer, but she still works. She may not work as "hard", but that's just a silly debate to have in any case.

The thing to keep in mind with studies like this (there was a similar one in the US a while back) is that lesbian and gay couples children are usually are the result of adoption or medical procedures. That means that l&g parents are going to be richer than the average parents. Additionally, in the case of adoption,…

Honestly, I'm fully of the opinion that religion doesn't make people crazy, but that crazy people are drawn to religion because it gives them a really great framework to express their craziness.

They (Hebrew National) have to answer to a Higher Authority.

What I don't see on the list: donuts, ramen, hot dogs, mac and cheese. Cool, I'm good then. Carry on.

At one time, it was taken for granted that one income (nearly always a man's, but still) should be enough to support a family comfortably. I.e. an adult who stays home to do childcare and housework (let's not kid ourselves, that's WORK), a decent house, a car, food, clothes, savings for a rainy day.

Jezebel Basic

When the cheesecake at cheesecake factory have nightmares, they dream of this.

Oh Katie Heigl, you sound like someone's grandmother trying to learn what an internet is.
