Cheating on my husband saved my marriage. I started cheating in 2010, got busted in 2011 and after much therapy and hard work we are still together and better than ever today.

I literally got goosebumps when I played the clip. I practically wore out my vhs copy of this movie watching this exact scene over and over and over. I may or may not have had a teen beat poster of Devin Sawa tacked up over my bed soon after this movie and Little Giants came out.

True, and great for her. Definitely let the company know how you feel. My point is that where are her children really learning “ antiquated views of gender roles?” Looking at the party city website, or listening to their parents talk about the “boys” section and the “girls” section? My kids pick the costume they want,…

Yes I totally agree if by critique you mean don’t give them your money. That’s how the market should work. You don’t like how a company markets their products? Don’t buy from them. I'm sick of consumers whining to everyone that a company needs to change because they are too lazy to take their business elsewhere.

My son as Peach. My daughter is the Toad in the background

Ugh. As a parent of three children of various genders, I find these complaints ridiculous. So what if the company separates it into boys and girls costumes? If your daughter wants to dress up as a UPS driver, buy her the UPS driver costume! It’s parents who say “oh you are a girl you must choose from the costumes…

Perfect timing for me on this article. Just finished reading “The Righteous Mind” by Jonathan Haidt. It’s was interesting, but no where near as good as “The Unpersuadables” by Will Storr. That book really changed my whole way of looking at and discussing controversial issues. And I’m an objectivist.

Well done. Thank you.

My husband and I have had an “open relationship” for I think 3 or 4 years now and our marriage has never been stronger. I don’t understand why people think that a wedding ring makes you only want to have sex with one person. Other people are still attractive, and having sex with them is still enjoyable. Sex does not…

When ordering drinks at any fast food or food court type place, I just point at the cup I want. Too many different names. Give me that one.

When I was managing retail stores, I used this tactic a lot. Retail can be a crappy environment where you feel like you have absolutely no say in anything that happens in your store, and putting the ball in my employees' court always worked well. Instead of being resentful and pissed about being asked to do actual…

Cry on cue? I'm immune to Sand and Water at this point. Try "Bronte" by Gotye (PS it's about a dog) or "Cut" by Plumb

All you need is "Sand and Water" by Beth Nielsen Chapman and "Dancing" by Elisa to make this playlist complete. Thanks for adding new songs to my "Emotional" playlist!

I agree! I do a TON of baking around the holiday and have lots of tools I only use then. But I keep them all in a separate drawer anyway

The thing about fogging in front of other people is that you ultimately come off looking better than the other person. If they continue to attack you and you continue to agree (especially when the attacks are unfounded) you come across as the better person and allow the onlookers to see the attacker for who they…

I'm an atheist parent, so there's three kids :) Although I encourage them to decide what they believe. I often hear them talking to each other about it. "'Mommy doesn't believe in God.' 'Do you?' 'I think I do.' 'I don't.' The mostly only don't believe when they want to get away with saying "Oh my God!" or "Jesus!"…

I'm originally from southern Ohio, and as anyone who lives in the north can tell you it's not always about the snow. Freezing rain, negative temperatures, no heat, and just bad conditions can cause a"snow day " when there is relatively little actual dsnow

I like the window, middle, aisle idea except for the fact that I travel with my kids and I would feel like an asshole for fucking up the pattern. It's not like I can leave my 7 year old at the gate and get on the plane without him. He'd end up in Russia or something.

I second the theme idea for ensuring good food. I have a group of friends that gets together every weekend, and we have a Facebook group set up to decide the theme, and then everyone posts what they are bringing. Works like a charm. Except when (like this past Saturday) everyone who shows up late brings a box of…

I think we'll have plenty of people dressing up as those cool things, but those aren't really costumes you search for. For instance, my costume this year (one of them) is Black Widow. I searched for "pleather catsuit" "black unitard" and "leg holsters".
