When I read the headline, I was thinking Vandals like Goths and Visigoths, etc. But now I see it was just someone with a can of spray paint. In all the Royal Wedding coverage, I'm surprised that someone hasn't yet asked the Germanic tribes for their views on her butt.

Last year my son wanted to be a garbage man and then a firefighter and soldier as his hobbies.

I remember in one of grad classes, I think one involving Southern fic, the prof always mentioned how scared he was of O'Connor. Her religious views really shade everything, and she didn't seem to really love the world or people very much (of course, she probably had her reasons).

I read Flowers for Algernon in seventh grade and that one just did me in.

That's one of those adolescent milestones where even the toughest kids in your class openly cry. I don't remember being really wrapped up into the story, but it still made me bawl.

I really like the shape of Alexa Chung's dress. The cut on her sleeves mimics the hem, which is cool.

I think she'd really have to go out of her way to dress terribly. Whether it's her or her stylist, she is always dressed just right.

Seriously! Buy underwear that is the right size and get some jeans that fit correctly or have a bit higher rise. Now you don't have to worry about a fake body issue!

Damn, Kate Moss is all that and a bag of chips.

Oh man, I want this to happen too! Why haven't they gotten together yet? They are perfect for each other, I know it.

Stop being so sensible and just drink your diet margarita. No one needs to know the truth about calories.

Yes, I think a piece about the morning routine and how it affects us — those who are minimalist or those who go full-face — and how it feels to go without would be a great place to start the discussion. Whether or not women dress for themselves, men, or other women, we're sort of brought up with this idea that we have…

I'm thinking this is a bad attempt at sarcasm with a case of the humblebrags. If so, Kat George needs to do a rewrite. But in the first place, what is the purpose of this piece? It sounds like something you might tell a friend, like "Oh my god, I looked like shit and this guy smiled at me. Was he for serious?" But…

One of my husband's cousins had a pretty serious underbite and two years ago (while he was in college) had his jaw broken and realigned. It was a really long healing process that did involve him having his jaw wired shut. He survived on smoothies and milkshakes. While it did change his face a little (he now is an…

Despite its complete uselessness in my life, I always look forward to the resort wear shows. Didn't Karl do Chanel's show last year in a pretty similar place? Or the same place? I remember there were motorcycles involved in last year's show.

I'm with you on this. Being a parent involves all sorts of situations you'd never believe you'd be in, such as child will not keep shoes and socks on in the middle of winter, child writhes and wriggles like an eel any time you touch them, child lovingly vomits on you in mall. You can sometimes get desperate and just…

That's fabulous! I loved those books so much when I was young. I haven't reread them, but I imagine they're still good. Cimorene was a great character.

"Money pads the edges of things."

One of the interesting aspects of Isabel Archer's terrible marriage is that she had a great number of choices available to her but she took one path and then didn't leave it, even when she had the chance. Her's is a different situation from many of the women in Austen's novels.

Now that you mention it, I haven't seen any Sarah Palin paraphernalia at my mom's house, and she hasn't mentioned any Palin talking points in a while (instead she's on the crazy end times preparation stuff I think championed by Glenn Beck).
