@moonlitsapphire: It's the extra added F.U. to what she probably views as her competition...

@Alohamaid: Seriously, if that's the case, how awful. So she had what, maybe a week to savor her Oscar win before her entire world came crashing down?? Ugh.

@LoSpaz: I'm not seeing the series in Netflix (is there a separate Canadian site maybe that it's only on?)...if I'm missing it, please post a link!

@MissyMcCLung: Love the shoes!! She's off to see the wizard...

@Schrodinger's Cat: I had to evacuate out of National Theater in DC in the middle of The West Side Story last year when a fire alarm went off.

@MsPipCheerio: Back in olden times (early nineties when I was in HS), I remember MTV having some actually very decent and educational programs or discussions on some pretty controversial topics.

@billiejeanismylover: Oh I see what you mean— that actually could be it!

@bluebears: If you're a divorce attorney you likely know this better than me, but haven't they done some research that shows that one of the biggest (if not the biggest) predictors of a relationship or marriage's success is how much the parties involved respect each other? It's the couples who think they are perfectly…

@stacyinbean: I had to scroll up to see what you were talking about— good God, that's really terrible! And kind of hilarious...

@BuffyPhD: Oooh, the runny nose idea is brilliant (says the severe allergy sufferer). They actually make gloves for runners that have a soft, absorbent material on the side/back of the hand to wipe one's nose with while running so as not to have to struggle with carrying, digging out, and disposing of Kleenex while…

@DaniFae is so into you but way too smart for you: Exactly. Used tampon smell is gross enough, adding sickly flowers or baby powder scent to it makes it that much worse.

@ihatebutterflies: Well some women *do* need to skip work when their cramps are bad (hi, me!), and if some women are lying and using it as an excuse, is it really any different from a dude lying and saying he has a bad cold or stomach flu to get out of work?

@BuffyPhD: Dinner guests could stick them on the backs of their hands with the adhesive, and then be able to just wipe their mouths without even putting down their forks. Genius!

@la.donna.pietra: Oooh, that's awful!

@judgingamy: It might depend on the person...when I'm not on the pill or hormones of any kind, my period truly is a curse. 7 days of heavy flow (soak through super tampon in 20 minutes at times), clotted, extremely painful cramping, nausea-inducing, and on occasion even passing out, hell.

@formergr: Some citations:

@autonaimee: I definitely see your concerns, but there is evidence that focusing literacy programs in developing countries strictly on girls/women ends up resulting in better outcomes (in terms of quality of life, nutrition, health, and economic stability) for both women *and* men.

@tsatske2001: Nah, at least in my case, I hate Lindsay Lohan's mom for the same reason as Miley's, and she's from Long Island, NY, so I know it's not because of any regional prejudices on my part.

@andromedeia: God that's a really graphic picture. I've been fortunate enough never to have experienced assault, but if I had, I think that would be really upsetting.

@BrookeD: Having heard the same about Florida's division, as well as Illinois', does anyone know if *any* states have at least somewhat effective DYFS (or the equivalent)?
