Yes, THIS. I lost 20ish lbs before my wedding, and the FIRST thing my now-MIL said when she saw me shortly before the wedding was, "Oh my gosh you've lost weight!" and all the compliments that go along with that. My first thought was what the hell did you think of me before...?

My biostats professor was the lead author for this study! She's seriously the most impressive person ever, and a fantastic teacher to boot. Goooo Amy Herring!

you know, correlation doesn't equal causation. Why are we assuming that the women who sign purity pledges are more likely to feel like they have to lie about how they got pregnant. Maybe God is just only willing to divinely inseminate women who are willing to sign purity pledges. Did you ever think of that science…

Oh man! I thought I was the only one!!! He should be best friends with my little ball of fur, Professor Moon Waffles.

I have a cat, Laura. My cat will help me make my cookies.

I adore this. However, my single-person cookie recipe goes like this:

Ben is an acquaintance of mine and a lot of friends have been posting the link to this Today show article/slideshow that has more of his perspective on the shoot:

Ben wrote about the experience, saying: "Many people have asked me how I felt while doing that photo session. What I…

Girl, I got more legs than a bucket of chicken.

Oh, John Leguizamo. I have loved you for an age.

Her boobs do not affect her relationship God. If they did, then that's something she and God need to work out themselves. If her boobs affect my relationship with God, then that's something me and God gotta work out ourselves.

I don't know how to religion, but didn't god make her boobs?

As a Christian I feel uncomfortable with her showing off her breasts... because they prove that God loves her more than me.

I can definitely see three months being painful. As you noted, it's in the honeymoon stage, and I think that's certainly long enough to be really getting attached and looking toward the long-term. Sorry this happened to you :(. With time, it absolutely will feel better, but right now is the worst.

My mom did most of the cleaning when I grew up, so my DNA evolved the inability to clean. True story.

1994:

Yeah, I'm ready for 2014!!

Oh 2007 was the worst. My sister died, the guy I was dating broke up with me because he couldn't handle me being so despondent, my mom had a heart attack and I worked for a monster. I literally counted the days til Dec. 31 so I could wish that one good riddance.

Oh that is all hard stuff to deal with in a big way. The thought of losing a sister makes me speechless...I am so sorry for your loss.

I can say without fear of contradiction that 2013 has been the worst year for me since 1990. I got demoted early in the year and almost got killed at work in November.

I'm sorry you've had such a shit year. Last year was my shit year and it does, can, and will get better. I hear you on school being the fucking worst…I'm avoiding my finals at this very moment.
