Haha right? Oh sorry honey, I thought you were dying!

Now I walk around the house randomly shouting "EEEUURRRRGGHHHHHHHH!! Don't worry about me, just putting the lid on a jar!" "AAARRGGHHH! Hey don't freak out I just took a multivitamin." I find it slightly funnier than he does.

Hugs to all these kids.

I was just having a conversation about this event with a friend. He told me that during his high school days, 20 years ago, his Catholic school had a motivational speaker, a gay guy there to talk about HIV. They booed him off the stage and he left in tears. Change is possible, we see it in our

Conservatism defined: "But what about meeeeeeeee?"

This burns my chaps (the white Santa bit).

YOU TELL ME BRAH

The cry baby wanders into a room where grown ups are talking and tries to take me down, I'm just like:

I no longer work with the homeless but I did and I do know this, Stossel's idea that the shelters are just waiting with open arms and warm soup isn't true. Depending on your city, the shelters may not have enough beds for all of the people who need them. Also people can only access programs once a lifetime and not

I don't understand why you are bitching about this. It's very clear to me that on Christmas Eve he will be visited by three ghosts who will teach him about the value of humanity, charity and kindness. He will take to the streets spreading a message of joy and peace and upon every panhandler he will bestow a single,

I love snark as much as the next person, but as a musical theater professional, the recent SOM was not ruined. Carrie Underwood's acting was flat-out bad, as was the appalling direction, but most of the other performances were good to outstanding. They spent $9MM on a risky live one-off of a classic stage musical

Can we also discuss how Palin probably really meant to use sharecropping or peonage instead of slavery in her statement? I'm just saying, let's at least be accurate when we're making ill-advised comparisons.

My (totally unfounded) theory is that nudity for cheap stuff feels trashy and more objectifying. When it's for a luxury good, it feels more like it's supposed to be art, or telling you "this item is so luxurious you'll want to feel it directly on your skin". It's the difference between this:

Alternative theory: ads for cheap stuff that use sex are never targeted at women.

"Kids shouldn't be seeing this, I thought". You are a kid when you're 12 :( That part was what really hit the whole thing home for me.

Sorry, but I cheered at this article. This girl is in a situation where it is clear she is being emotionally violated, and based on the tone of the article it would not be surprising to me if it went beyond that. She is not being protected or advocated for by her mother, and it seems like she is the oldest sibling.

HOLD ON.

"We need to change this strange mentality we are breeding in the U.S. and start celebrating people who are a result of hard work, dedication and discipline."

Fitness Mom's inability to distinguish "affect" from "effect" shows a lack of discipline, motivation and—let's say it—intelligence. By writing "no one should be ashamed of who they are," she clearly demonstrates her ignorance of singular and plural pronouns. Also, she omits the comma after the dependent clause "When
