@sylphish is a heroine addict: HOW can she walk in those? Well, barely anyways. I've always had a certain respect for models — wearing an outfit is one thing, but some of the shoes designers come up with...and then having to walk on the runway...damn!

Proof that Don Draper can make anything 1238932523409x better. So much love <3

Or: Barbie's Shoe Collection, coming to a store near you!

This is something I'd totally expect to see on the Paula Deen show.

@alisonsylvia: I didn't mean to generalize, and I realize I do come off that way. You're right — I didn't consider that a lot of people at these state schools aren't from the state, but at the same time, while I'm not a NH native, I lived there for a really long time and my own personal experience is that I found the…

@PrettyB is like Whoa: Our school always had an amazing production of the Monologues, but no one but the people interested in diversity and friends and family ever showed up. Valid point about the county — my school is also in a blue county, perhaps that had nothing to do with the point I was trying to make (I'm a…

Doesn't surprise me. Dartmouth is in New Hampshire. I didn't go to Darthmouth but I went to another NH school, where most people still giggled at the title "The Vagina Monologues." NH tries to be all progressive but they're still secretly super conservative (as also shown by the latest election results).

My first CD was Diana Ross's Greatest Hits, a gift from my dad when I was 6. And my mother was a dance instructor so we had MJ and Madonna playing in our house all the time. What I'm trying to say is that actually, parents can influence music choices a lot — because I still prefer that type of music instead of the…

We were born with hair on our legs for a reason, at least if we think in terms of Darwin. It's also November. And I haven't shaved my legs since August. If I were to obsess with having every inch of my body shaved 24/7, I wouldn't have time for all the important things I've done lately — like catching up on Mad Men…

I would be too if my owner looked like a mix between a vampire, a zombie and an elderly hooker.

@em.: In the Netherlands, 99% of tampons are also applicator free...maybe it's just the US?

Interesting fact: woman in the Netherlands ONLY use O.B. type tampons. They had one with an applicator a while ago but I don't know if they still do. Want me to bring you back a bunch when I visit the US in December? ;)

@so long marianne: As long as James Cameron stays out of Luhrmann's way, we should be fine...I hope...

Proof of what a powerful influence parents have over bullying — to stop it and to encourage it. What will the kids of Moms A, B and C think when their moms start talking about "that so and so boy in the girl costume"? It's a wicked cycle...

I'd blame Ryan's fright on the dancing gorilla angel. Baracus reincarnated (or almost reincarnated)?

@Flackette Knits A Lot: I agree — I was kind of hoping she'd get the part, she also has that classic look about her that would work so well with Daisy!

Okay so the Redford version wasn't amazing, but I bet it will be better than anything Luhrmann can come up with. Scarlett Johanssen can't pull off a role like Daisy, she's way too mature. And Blake is too immature in her acting skills. In that sense I still appreciate the 1974 version simply because Redford, Farrow…

@so long marianne: Shocked that more people aren't pointing that out. Also, I thought that the Robert Redford version was fine, why do we have to keep remaking these movies?

What scares me is that there probably are some people who take his bid seriously. And this sad attempt at having sex appeal.

Ugh. I had a roommate my freshman year of college who littered our room with Shrek/X-Men/LOTR/TINKERBELL posters, action figures, laundry baskets...I felt like I was living in the room of a 9 year old. Also, she snored SO LOUDLY and when I told her it was keeping me up she said that I snored (even though I hadn't…
