I expect to keep my latex mattress 25-30 years. Is that unrealistic?

"Girl, take some of mine," is what I say when I hate my large breasts that have flopped down to my mid-stomach since the age of 15, enduring constant upward tugs at the front of my shirt from my mother, but I didn't realize it might be thought of as wanting to fix someone with small breasts. I really just hate my…

We also brought a case of bottles of water, a case completely covered in plastic except the sides, removed the center ones, filled them with vodka, reinserted the bottles underneath the plastic covering, and reinserted the sealed bottles of water in front of them. Got through completely fine. And then we also had…

Carnival didn't care, but on Norwegian, any bottle brought on board was subject to a corkage fee. They'd x-ray your luggage before delivering it to your stateroom, and call you down to cargo to pay the fee for carrying wine in your luggage, or they'd hold it for you until you got back to the US. So a bag of wine was a…

On ships with a corkage fee, I like to bring an unboxed box of wine instead of the bottle. It would be embarrassing bringing that bag to dinner, though!

Or spends more money on coffee than on clothing?

Did it in the tanning salon while getting in a spraytan booth... thought it was a fart. Not a fart. Total shart! I cleaned up the mess that squirted out of my panties and onto the floor with the salon's towel, stuffed it in my purse, and busted out of there. I never went back!

Speaking of tools, now I need to buy a microscope camera. I neeeed that. I've gotta have it! I went straight to Amazon to get one of my own but have no idea what to get.

There's nothing worse than having to stop your workout so you can go pee.

I have to know more about this. Can someone, anyone, tell me where to find a house like this? DREAM!

Because women aren't people. When someone looks at a human sexually, that someone is a man. Women don't get to have a gaze. If someone of either gender is portrayed in a sexual way, the assumption is that men are doing the looking. Frustrating.

Agreed. I guess I normally use them because I don't want the other person to be intimidated or to think I have a particularly strong opinion. It's hard enough to get along with other people. And if someone doesn't have a soft opening with one of these qualifying phrases, I'm more likely to disregard their opinion as…

It seems to be more about leakage. For example, if you have trouble digesting fats, you could have some orange oily leakage coming out your backside. I had this problem when I took Alli, and this sounds weird, but I kind of enjoyed the side effects. Once I ate a bunch of hot wings while taking Alli with a glorious…

uhhhhhh... perv alert perv alert.

I had absolutely no flippin' idea so many people showered daily! I mean, that's a shocking percentage! I'm about with you, twice a week maybe, and thought that was pretty standard. The phrase 'Now we think nothing of showering once, twice, or even three times a day" has me so baffled. Who is "we"? Not us!

It's hard to find someone who provides what we're looking for. All of the ads I see advertise "NSA, uncut, for a lucky lady." Blah! Does anyone know the best way to find someone who is more like a companion?

I don't know that I have a good explanation. To be charitable and kind to someone who is lonely, perhaps. It is really heartbreaking to feel completely alone in the world, that's all. I don't think she should continue with something that makes her uncomfortable, but I understand why it has lasted so long. I don't…

No, I feel better after I poo.. so not going makes me feel icky! Sort of like that shudder of relief you get and instant good-feelings after pooping following a night of heavy drinking and eating crap food. Soooo jealous of your ability to not get stopped up!

Yep, this. I said something about this in another comment: it's hard to have no friends. I really clicked with your comment about living in a stagnant place. Thanks for this. I can tell the letter-writer is trying to be charitable for some reason and I think this is it.

I wonder if her "BFF" didn't have any other friends. I think if my BFF told me she really didn't like me, I would die, because I have no other friends. I wondered if that was part of why she was really putting it off. It's especially likely because her friend has moved so often and maybe has no one else.
