1997-era Gwyneth seemed so royal and refined. Everyone loved the idea of a middle class hot dude from Boston and a Hollywood princess getting together. I swear they did not appear so dull at the time.

I moved to the Dallas area from MA because my husband convinced me it would be awesome. It is, in fact, not awesome. But we got a brand new house for $267k that would probably cost $600k+ in Boston. My heart wants to move back, but I don’t know if we can afford it. He doesn’t seem to understand my trepidation about

To anyone horrified over pet hair near food— any helpful ideas how to keep my cat off the counter? It’s a futile endeavor. I’ve tried tin foil, sticky back tape, the old squirt-bottle method, an aerosol can that puffs in response to motion, and positive reinforcement when she’s not on the counter. Nothing works. She

Wait, was this the guy who got a DUI and Reese pulled a “do you know who am” I to the police?

I believe her. But did they completely change sets over the years? There is absolutely no way on this earth that her predecessor Kathy Lee Gifford did NOT have her own bathroom. 

it’s funny how it’s just assumed that SHE is lying and at fault here (because she’s...famous?”

I get where she is going with this. But these folks just don’t care. It’s about all the absurd hopes, dreams, and fears they project onto the little Tic Tac, not the Tic Tac itself. The embryo is merely a symbol.

That and I am always fascinated with how dramatically his voice has changed over the years.  

I had terrible food poisoning last Monday and I’m still dizzy when I stand up and have tingly legs. I chugged water and Gatorade all week too. I wish you a speedy recovery.

They need to rationalize their orthorexia.”

Maybe she’s created a whole alternate reality in her head like that movie Sucker Punch.

Why do people divorce if they are still the best of friends? No sex? Dead romance? No judgment, just curious.

My cold Xennial heart is ever so slightly envious of the younger generations who are seemingly taught to embrace their feelings, express themselves, and be authentic.

Yup. But I do think middle class folks are willing to spend more on certain luxuries for their kids now. I routinely see 5-year-olds getting mani/pedis and 10-year-olds getting highlights. My regular-earner friend (who lives with her parents) gets Taylor Swift tickets for her tween every time she tours.

I keep forgetting this isn’t a Ted Lasso subplot.

I’m not disputing he had an injury, but it’s very hard to prove that his personality changes were solely caused by a single TBI event. He might have changed anyway due to aging, depression (Perhaps triggered by said head injury), and many other comorbidities that are not uncommon at age 76. I am a healthcare

Me too. I think personality changes are so broadly indicative of dementia and aging, that it will be tough to prove his sparkle diminished due to this singular event.

Wasn’t this an episode of Scrubs? Is the man Richard Kind? 

And I think it’s possible some ideas came to him while hanging out with everyone’s second favorite magick charlatan, Aleister Crowley.
