Yeah I mean he landed in rehab for a reason, but as I recall at one point afterwards he was talking about the drinking/drugs/party days in terms of depression and grief over a loss, so I feel for him. And apparently he’s a good dad and has been very vocally supportive of LGBT rights in Ireland (and his gay brother…

It seems SO MUCH BRIGHTER on a computer screen than it ever did on my Trapper Keeper.

Fuuuuck off. My kid went a little weird around four months old. I guess I could blame it on that round of vaccines, but actually I think she just has a genetic tendency towards anxiety and that’s when I started to notice. I love when people say their babies changed overnight. Babies change. It's what they do. One day…

Omg I remember secretly watching this in my bedroom when I was 9

Because everyone at school already knows “fadatta-fadatta-fadatta/beepum-boopum-bah/ratta-datta-boom-shh/afa-deedee-bobo.”

I always think of elephants when I see old ladies with saggy baggy panty hose.

God I loved the Ramona books when I was a kid. I went to a very small family church where the pastor’s wife taught Sunday School and had the most obnoxious grandchildren in the whole wide world, just a few years younger than me. They could do no wrong in the eyes of the grandma but they were soooo annoying. I always…

“...which is highly accurate with regards to the emotional turmoil of being a teen girl, but leaves a modern reader skeptical with its mention of only one chaste kiss.”

I think about the “the dawnzer’s lee light” scene every time I hear the national anthem.

Beautiful, Kate. The Ramona books were at times hilarious, desperately sad, filled with enough sense of solitude to make Emily Dickinson cringe, infused with dinner table conversations as real and raw as a ribeye, and always, always, deeply and wantonly subversive. I was able to read early, and after a thousand rounds…

Not to toot my own horn, but this:

Anyone have random lines that still stick out to them? To this day when I see No Smoking signs I think of Ramona And Her Father, where she accidentally makes a sign saying “Nosmo King” and he teases her.

I had to perform CPR on my infant daughter a few months ago. She started crying strangely, and after we pulled her out of her crib, she stopped breathing.

It was terrifying, and despite having aced our CPR class, I think I probably did a terrible job at it. I was shaking and just kept screaming for my husband to call…

Well this was gross and semi-impressive too. When I gave birth to my first I had to be induced. My labor wasn’t progressing like they wanted so the Dr came in to break my water. She told me that I might feel a little trickle and then there was an audible pop and my water sprayed out a good three feet from my body. The…

I’ve seen too much “The Walking Dead” to be happy about someone rising from the grave. If anyone comes back to life today or any other day I'm going full Rick Grimes on that motherfucker.

I would be blessed if my children turned out to be happy, healthy and loving.

I wish the horse had bit her. What an asshole.

And she doesn’t take his shit, as far as I can see. I’m actually really pleased that Fox stood up for her (given the Breitbart shitshow, that wasn’t a guarantee). At the same time, I have the feeling that Trump is all the chickens coming home to roost for Fox, and they seem to be out of their minds that they can’t use…

he has a crush on her... seen this a thousand times... he probably rides his bike past her house like 20 or 30 times every saturday
