"Young dentists seem to be under the influence of novocaine. Almost nothing turned them on."

At least there are some advantages? Though I find it hard to believe. I now have another survival-oriented advantage to being short besides, "If there were a zombie apocalypse, I would be able to hide in a small space, like a closet or a piano, while all of you tall, strong people had your brains eaten! But they would…

Ah, the holding in farts stage. I know this probably makes me a bad person, but I did get annoyed when my (now ex) boyfriend asked if he could fart. He was within his rights and I didn't have a right to be annoyed three months in, and he did ASK. But it still bothered me, especially because it was a loud kind of wet…

That's what I figured. Celebrities bail and messes happen. And by laziness, I don't LITERALLY mean that someone doesn't feel like draping white covers over everything, to address another poster. I mean that something happened and no one could figure out how to reorganize, so hey, let's use old pictures of Monroe that…

That's what I mean, organizing another shoot. I didn't mean that I think the editor or managing editor or even the head of the art department or whatever, does all of those things. But that somebody doesn't want to deal with all of the fuss.

As a journalist, something tells me this is laziness. Someone didn't want to do one more shoot and drape 10 thousand white blankets over an elaborate set and do hair and makeup for 1-5 actresses. But hey, I don't work in entertainment journalism. Something tells me this is a crutch, though.

There is so much more to dislike in that list, namely being frightened of old people and the comment about sources. It sounds a bit conceited and you would think a news organization would care more about making sources feel bad than whether or not she was wearing a bra.

Same here! I could have used this when I was stranded in a rural area. Now I have a store literally blocks from me and they finally get on board. Jerks.

My roommate's girlfriend has the most exaggerated vocal fry and it makes me want to slap her in the face. BUT I have to remember that it may not be something she has a ton of control over. We weren't all blessed with Kathleen Turner voices.

I'm not saying it would look subtle, because subtle isn't really my favorite thing in lipsticks, but Asian Flower by MAC looks surprisingly good on me and I'm pale as a ghost.

Yes, I know that movie and love it! My grandma was similar. Italian woman with striking purple eyes and great style. Hooray for beautiful awesome grandmas!

Gah. It's a number. What matters is what you've done or how you feel or where you're at, and now of that has to do with age. I don't understand people like this. I'm taking it day by day accomplishing what I can now, and not worrying about what I can't. You can't control aging no matter what you do to conceal the…

I'm not saying she shouldn't have said "Darling, you're beautiful and awesome, don't worry" because that's what I would say to my friends, but how do you think she knows you're not fishing for a compliment? What was expected? I don't think she should have LAUGHED, obviously, but I have friends with low self esteem who…

Yup. If some guy approaches you at a bar and you're with friends, which hey, no one ever goes to a bar alone, then the appropriate thing to do is snag that number and tell him you'll talk later. Why do people not get this? Basic manners. Also, what about that friend who looks at her phone constantly while you're…

Echoing msrobertplant. I'd make sure that you don't either a) You need to take a break until he stops feeling guilty and stops feeling like he needs to take care of her b) Take a break to make sure he is really okay with moving on so soon. It's probably a) if anything, but it's weird to be in a situation where he…

It sounds depressing, but it's good! Ethan Frome.

Yeah, if she's nice otherwise then there is hope! It's good to hear she isn't just a shitty person. She has communication issues or doesn't totally understand what you're doing. And thanks for the good wishes!

I don't think virginity is as important as people make it out to be, personally. And even if it were a "mistake" then what would the consequence be, as long as you didn't get pregnant or catch in infection or disease? (Be safe, kids!) I lost mine to someone I vaguely knew and then never really thought about it again.…

I'm totally in the same position with my boss. It's a small company and he treats everyone in a sort of shitty way so I try not to take criticisms personally. But he is so insufferable (always says he has to micromanage his employees) and he can't have a conversation with anyone, just acts like a professor and talks…

I feel so old remembering that trend began exactly 10 years ago. Or so I recall. It's really come back already...good God.
