Thanks for making me laugh!

I don’t have kids, but my policy for myself is I try to send a thank-you note when someone ships a gift to me, or in other circumstances where the giver doesn’t give me the gift in person. If I have a chance to open the gift in front of them and thank them then and there, I figure that’s sufficient. I think if I had…

Anyone who teaches middle school should be a candidate for sainthood! :)

I’m so sorry! I’m not a mom but can imagine the horror of hearing that “thunk.” Sending good vibes your way.

Adorable!

I’m so sorry, Pumpkin Andy! My mother is not quite as horrible as yours, but she has her moments and manages to mess with my head really well. I told my therapist once it was like playing Russian Roulette when I talk to her -- I never know if I am going to get “nice Mom” or “narcissistic bitch Mom” suddenly dropping a…

Oh my lord. I’m so sorry. Funny, but terrible ... parents can be such assholes sometimes!

I’m so sorry this is happening to you. You have been through more than your fair share of gyn-related bad experiences. No wonder you feel beaten up. If it helps, I give you permission to have a pity party for a good while. Then maybe you can think of something totally unrelated that would bring you joy - plan a nice…

OK, THANK YOU. I thought I was the only person in the world who had that particular petty issue. Ha! :D Never heard them referred to as “corn teeth” before. I feel so bad having a hangup about it b/c it’s totally something the person can’t help, but I just find it completely unattractive.

I’m so very sorry. :(

Thank you so much! I knew I could count on my fellow jezzies to have some comforting words of wisdom. :) Love this community.

Thanks, Corporal Trim. I think I actually have some feelings of guilt/inadequacy because I probably wouldn’t want to be a supervisor even if I *didn’t* have the chronic illness in my way -- my health just kind of cements things for me. 

Thank you, Pumpkin Andy! 

One thing I’m struggling with at the moment: I have some chronic illnesses that often make it hard for me to give 100% at work and that get worse with stress. I’ve made a conscious decision not to pursue advancement at work (which would require me to take on a supervisory role — that would stress me out BIG time). I…

I’m so very sorry for your loss. :(

Those first 3 pics made me SO DAMN HAPPY and then that last one just killed me. OMG. :(

Thanks for the tip!

I really want to know how many households in the U.S. actually boil their dishcloths in a pot. Or even separate dishcloths from ALL other household laundry when washing in a washing machine. I consider myself pretty scared of germs, but ain’t nobody got time for this stuff.

These people totally deserved to have pee dumped on their heads -- totally accidentally, of course.

I keep reading this and LOLing. OMG. I was in my 20s when this season aired, and none of my friends watched that I know of, but I wish I had a friend to share this with like that. :D
