So basically this is a navel-gazing TL;DR about how you did something illegal, insanely dangerous, that you'd been warned not to do repeatedly, did anyway, and were punished for.

Uncle Dood's Donuts in Toms River is the bomb. Our diners rock, I've lived many places and always missed them when I was elsewhere. Ahearn's Seafood in Waretown, the German butcher dude in Forked River... that ice cream place in New Egypt, on Route 539... there are lots of little hole-in-the-wall places in South…

Cancelled credit cards (that are paid off and in good standing) is a terrible idea, credit-wise. Even if you never use them again, just let the account stay open. It creates a longer credit history and helps very much.

I was able to get Verizon's "loyalty" rate of unlimited talk and text and 2GB of data for $60 by threatening to move to T-Mobile, which was having a "we'll pay your ETF" promotion. I'm saving minimum of $30/month with it. Being a squeaky wheel WORKS.

Ranch dressing has a buttermilk base. It's not mayonnaise at all.

I had a terrible experience with a Softcup (my weirdly-tilted pubic bone + Softcup = medical extraction and gigantic gory mess) and now the sight of one sends me into fits.

I don't dislike children, per se, but I do find them boring as fuck. Playing dolls, reading kiddie books or watching kiddie tv: dull. After 10 minutes with a kid, I'm looking longingly at the door, hoping for a chance to escape. Consequently, I am completely uninterested in hearing about other people's kids'…

This is such an excellent point. Everyone always has such a rosy, Kodak-moment concept of parenthood and children, but very often, instead of the smiling cherub you envisioned, you have a child with severe health challenges, physical and/or mental disabilities, or mental illness/incurable addiction problems. Or…

Sorry, this is 100% incorrect. Many, many, MANY of the people in nursing home had children... who not only don't take care for them in their golden years, but scarcely even come to visit them.

You can get a regular high school diploma to override your GED. You can also attend community college on a GED; once you have the AS degree, your high school experience won't matter as much. Also, don't mention it's a GED vs. a regular diploma. It's not really anyone's business.

Is there an option to try out the iPhone OS? My cell account renewal is coming up and I'll have an option to get the iPhone but I've had an Android cell for so long that I want to play around and see if I'll like the iPhone or if it'll make me crazy... before I've blown my chance for a free phone on something I might…

So, I'm crying my eyes out at how romantic this is. I'm so glad you made it! And that he's got a great penis! Apart from the traumatic medical stuff, this is the best real-life love story I've ever encountered! /happy sob

"Crackas gon' crack" might be the funniest thing I've ever read. Love it.

I'm white, and my thirst to see and read more of Lupita Nyong'o cannot be quenched. So she's pertinent to my interests as well, and I welcome as many articles on her as they want to give us. It can be all-Lupita, all-the-time up in here, and I'd be happy.

She reminds me of Audrey Hepburn, who was just so graceful but also classy and kind.

Is it known for a fact that she *can't*? It's more likely that she is perfectly satisfied with a close crop and simply doesn't *want* to.

It sounds to me like they've had problems before with crossdressing men, not transgender MtF people, trying to try on intimate wear in the dressing rooms. There might have been a problem with a woman realizing a dude was in the dressing room with her and having a case of the vapors over it. Then, based upon those…
