One is a "professional" writer, the other is not. Different standards.

Look, I'm on your side, but calling people names when they're simply asking for more information is doing nothing for the cause. In fact, it drives people away. If they're asking for more information, their hearts are halfway won. Try educating people calmly and you might make advocates, rather than critics or…

This may be a nitpicky point, but I'm annoyed by the Kate Middleton link. When you click through, the copy says that she's fully recovered from the bout of hyperemesis that she had back in December, implying it was a one-off illness. As someone who had it, I can assure you that it's a long and protracted illness that…

I really don't get why so many people are taking issue with what you're saying. I feel the same. I grew up in the days when the internet was new. Used BBS, the old AOL chatrooms, all of that. Never lied. Weird how many do, I suppose.

It's a range with pantyhose on the sheer end of the spectrum, then tights are more opaque, with leggings on the thickest end of the scale. Calling them pantyhose has nothing to do with age in the U.S.

I'm 30 and know the difference. I don't think it's an age thing.

Yep, as others have said, pantyhose and tights are not interchangeable. Pantyhose are sheer, tights opaque. Leggings are thicker, footless tights that can be worn in lieu of pants (so long as a top is long enough to cover one's behind). The range of opacity runs in a spectrum with pantyhose on she sheer end, and…

This is a new rule I wasn't aware of, thanks for bringing it to my attention! However, an expatriate only needs to file a US tax return if they spend more than 35 days in the country. The new requirement to file an 8928 only applies if you have to file a US tax return.

Yeah, it's very strange to me, Jezebel's love for Love. Ever since the Kathleen Hannah punching incident, I'm just done with Courtney.

You should kick yourself for that!

I think they both suck. I'll never be able to like Courtney after she punched Kathleen Hannah. And her music was never much better than Stefani's, IMO. She always seems much more obsessed with social climbing and being famous than producing anything of substance.

Ehhh, I really wouldn't call her eyes "giant" or even particularly on the big side. More like just not small. This is not a comment on your eyes, by the way, just hers! I think with hers it's more than they are droopy/tilt downward at the ends, which exposes more upper lid while the eye is open, so the makeup…

I agree! But I love watching her to indulge in some completely irrational fantasizing about what my husband and my children will come out looking like, since he's a redheaded Irishman and I'm a dark-but-still-white-Spaniard-American with coloring like hers. I realize she's Brazilian and way prettier than me, and that…

I made it today! It.. didn't turn out so great. But that's likely because I had to transpose it to my European oven even though it's an American recipe. I've lived here two years and still haven't figured out exactly how to translate cook times and temperatures with fan assist. It works differently here than there,…

Having a boy as well! It must be in the water :)

If we earn money in a company with American holdings (i.e., Facebook or other multinationals) then yes, we have to pay American taxes because they are considered earning money in America. But (I'll use me as an example since I don't know what country you're in) if I earn money at a company in Ireland that has no…

Chiming in to say, if you have any interest in doing it, definitely do it at least once in your life. It was such a wonderful experience! The wind on your scalp.. wow! A sensation I'd otherwise never have felt my whole life long, simply because of societal constructs. Pretty silly not to, when you think about it. And…

Spider eyes! Yuck!

PREACH! I'm so sick of seeing tarantula lashes everywhere! I had a moment of "if you can't beat 'em, join 'em" untilI realized I can't apply them to save my life. And even when artfully applied, they always look fake and I've never thought they looked good. I was simply being brainwashed! Argh.
