For the most part we are paired off and child-less, but with our careers things are getting pretty hectic and our regular drinks/movies etc. are better at keeping us in touch then text/emails since those feel like work. I totally get that others are better at connecting through those means but it doesn’t work well for

I will definitely watch this movie. It sounds charming and light which is a great way to spend an afternoon at the movies.

This is what I am worried about :-( To have the show come back but remain just out of my grasp!

I agree! That Interrogation Episode was wonderful in terms of acting, pacing and suspense! Hands down one of the best for the series!

Wouldn’t they say he has been proven guilty? Isn’t the whole ‘court of public opinion argument about trying people in court?

It always really annoys me when I go to a conference and listen to a speech given by a women and she mentions being a mom first. I want to hear about her professional achievements not her personal ones. It always feels like they must couch their expertise or professional achievements with personal ones.

I can confirm this anecdotally in Canada. Since we have a year parental leave it actually acts as a deterrent to companies promoting and hiring women since men rarely take it. My family in Sweden says that sex segregation is more common there than in North America.

Way more people hate Love Actually than like it (just look at the deluge of think pieces about it every holiday season, with people filling the comment section with reasons why they hate it). I really like it and people look at me like I unsophisticated and naive.

I would also add a third point ‘movies that sing the praises of the entertainment sector” (e.g. La la land, The Artist etc.)

That is exactly why I won’t use a reusable cup. I can’t bare the thought of washing them in communal bathrooms especially unisex bathrooms.

In Canada, parental leave is paid out of the unemployment insurance so companies don’t have to pay (though some companies ‘top-up’ the unemployment benefits since the government doesn’t cover a parents entire annual income). A company’s role is to keep a position open for the parent to return to and fill their role

I really like him on the Daily Show and I actually watch it more now then when John Stewart was hosting. I got annoyed with Stewart’s grunts, groans and other noises. There are so many types of comedy and definitely not every comedian will work for everyone but I love Noah’s delivery, takes and direction for the

Not me - I am so happy my boyfriend isn’t that close with his mom.

I have hunch that the contest is done in heats. Each week four people compete then the winners from each heat compete. I am very excited about this show - I love creative make-up and it looks fun. Laverne is a little stilted but I think she will find her feet.

A lot, probably most, are about an old dude with a young women. But many are not - Vicky Christina Barcelona, Midnight in Paris, Blue Jasmin, Match Point, Melinda and Melinda. There are probably more, but this is a small point.

I am losing my hair as well and I would love to wear a head scarf too! I am also weary about wigs. But I worry about cultural appropriation so here I am with my terrible hair watching it slowly disappear.

I get it, for sure, but I will miss it. Harmless workplace flirting can help me get through my day but if it has to go, I won’t stand in the way.

It always makes me apprehensive because I feel like it is a dangerous precedent to have the majority vote on minority rights. But I do see this point.

Here here - I have the same issue. Very fine, oily hair. I am also thinning and losing quite a bit so one of my friend told me to go shampoo free (because I am desperate about my hair loss and will try anything). Anyways, I persevered for a month and my hair was a greasy mess and it looked thinner than it does

I have been with my boyfriend for 20 years and I like the term. It feels youthful, free and fun to me, even though I am middle aged. There has alway been something about the terms ‘wife’ and ‘husband’ that I always felt as stuffy to me to the point I when someone accidentally calls me his ‘wife’ I always correct
