My sister wasn't able to conquer her addictions either. But I wouldn't call her "stupid." I'd call her beautiful, artistic, kind, funny, deeply troubled, incredibly sad, and gone tragically early.

Perhaps that's more fortunate than unfortunate.

Which is precisely why they shouldn't be used to express anything that requires a nuanced discussion.

Let's keep this in mind people, 140 characters doth not a nuanced discussion enable.

I knit owl pot holders instead of watching the Superbowl (and in a failed attempt to to deafen my obnoxious family in law I'm forced to watch the game with). I've tried to read/do work in the past, but it has always failed.

But the game is over! Now I have to wait 'til next year to read a book!

That's what my migraine auras look like.

How much will her unretouched photos cost?

Her?

*tears*

I left my emotionally and verbally abusive husband, and went in to finish medical school as a single mother. I am now halfway through my residency.

That is weird. My son is 9 and no one comments on that. I guess they don't need to after they have already commented on the 20 year old though. I think lots of people have kids in their mid-20's.

This is amazing. I love freaking people out with my dry humor and look very young for my age, so I will try to remember this for when I'm a grandma in...approximately 30 years.

You know what I find weird? I'm 36 and my eldest is 10. People at work are shocked I have a child that "old." What the hell? When did having a baby at 25= Teen Mom participant?

I was going to suggest dramatically poufing the hair and saying "Well, thank goodness the treatments work. I would hate to think all those virgins died in vain." Too long for good sarcasm and you have to be really ballsy to pull it off.

You can just say thanks, then stare at them and make them feel uncomfortable until they go away. It's what my mom does, she is a young grandma and people thought my daughter was hers for the longest time. Now if they are not complete assholes she says thank you and gushes about her baby girl or does the discomfort…

Oh, I'm sorry to hear about your discomfort. I don't know how people have the energy to comment on anything — aren't they busy enough with their lives?!

Myriad Jones! It sounds like the name of a kick ass lady superhero.

Beer, Netflix, laziness, and continued lurking. You know, the wild times of a tired, introverted thirty-something.
