How do they feel about #kissmyfatassInstagram? ‘Cause I’m thinking about getting that one started.

It really does vary! I love my Mirena (I’m on my second one), but for me the insertions have been the most painful experiences of my life.

The craziest thing is they are not even the drunkest university in the UW system. I went to Madison, and we all agreed that the kids at UW Oshkosh (Sloshkosh) had a problem.

Here in Wisconsin, we make the IRS give us our refunds in Miller Lite and Bratwurst.

I forwarded this article to my wife, clipped the same pic, added the note "see honey, even the Internets say we should have a threesome". She replied with this image and one word: "Approved"
