I went to school with a girl who, while in a vegetarian phase (not for ethical reasons, but because she thought it would help her lose weight), insisted on ordering cheeseburgers at McDonald’s as follows: no meat, no mustard, no onion, no pickle. That is, she wanted a slice of cheese and ketchup on a bun. Now, I…

Yep. Pretty sure Liam has no fucks to give about Americans. You get the feeling that he does what he wants. He was a guest at a film festival here several years ago...got tired of waiting to be interviewed (because things were running way behind, of course), told his handlers he was going to the restroom, and gave…

What, no "quim"? This saddens me greatly. I would've hoped that Loki's little line in The Avengers had brought it back into fashion by now.

Pregnancy is now covered to an extent under the ADA. Seems to me like your situation would likely fall under that.

When I was a tender 16 years old, I worked at Hardee's with an...interesting...assortment of people. One in particular was named Rick, and I could only describe him as an opportunist. He didn't identify as gay or bisexual, but at the time in question, he had a sugar daddy, and he basically worked the late shift at…

If there was ever anyone on this show who should've gotten F'd up by our beloved Daryl, it was Gorman, but getting eaten by Joan worked just as well.

Yeah, as a mother, it just broke my heart. She was really sweet to the waitress (left a "regular" tip on the table, but discreetly gave her a larger tip personally), and then to my daughter, who had recognized her. I don't know. Truly shitty people don't normally do that kind of stuff, you know?

The Emma Roberts/Evan Peters thing makes me so sad. A couple of months ago, my family had dinner at a restaurant (not a fancy shmancy place, just a regular old place where she and a fellow actor happened to be dining while filming on location), and we were seated next to her and her companion. Half the time she was…

I think a nurse let it slip initially, but there was a lawsuit.

I know. The friend I mentioned earlier and another friend both had successful home births this year, and I am very happy for them. I am pregnant with #3 right now. I've been fortunate not to have needed a c-section thus far, but I will be delivering in the hospital, because that's my choice.

I have a close friend who ended up with an unnecessary C-section 8 years ago (during which the anesthesia didn't work, so she felt every single bit of it and has dealt with PTSD since) for that very reason. Her labor was taking too long, and her OB didn't want to miss his tee time. So he lied to her, he lied to her…

Dude, katieriot's friend needs a lawyer, stat. I'm pretty sure that's straight up illegal, and chances are that if the dictrict or regional corporate office found out about this, the Dominos store manager would be the one getting fired. Dominos has to comply with FMLA regulations, just like any other business with…

It really depends on who you ask. Our allergist says no coconut, but personally, I've never had an issue with it, and I've been allergic to nuts since I was about 8. My kids are both allergic, too, though, so we err on the side of caution. They're taught "No nuts at all," and we keep all nuts and nut products out of…

In my house, we will eat all the dairy and gluten! We have severe tree nut allergies, so nut milks are totally off the table for us. What are the other alternatives? Soy and rice milk? Soy milk makes me gag, but I've considered trying rice milk.

My son is an Arlo, but he's been an Arlo for the better part of the last decade. He's named after Arlo Guthrie, not because Matt Weiner named his son Arlo or because that's Raylan's dad's name on Justified. Ugh. Ugh, ugh, ugh.

Holy cow, that's a lot to deal with. I wonder if she would respond to a nutritional counselor of some sort? That's one thing that I know I have access to through my EAP at work if needed —- nutritional counseling.

If your daughter goes to school, she may be picking it up there. I've told this story here before...my daughter is now 12, and I am on vigilant watch for disordered eating. But when she was 5, in Kindergarten, is when I first noticed behaviors of the other girls in her Girl Scout Daisy troop. Little girls, 5 and 6…

Iknow! It was like "aaaaand now, the moment you've all been waiting for!" and then *sad trombone*

But last night Cragen said he hits mandatory retirement in 6 months...*sniffle*

Amen. Our kids don't have our password, and they won't EVER.
