It’s a sign of progress (it only took 2500 years for it to occur in limited spots on Earth with a small subset of the population!) that what was once extremely commonplace manages to shock.

I canvassed for and participated in the data collection of this study. The folks in LA that used his methods were very earnest and I have witnessed first hand some remarkable conversations take place. What gets me is that it was a totally useful method of measuring public opinion in voting counties that voted heavily…

OH MY GOD! your story has totally made my mind up. Gonna have my ma walk me down the aisle. Fuck what ‘people will say’. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!

One can accept that death is a natural and necessary part of life and still be sad when it happens. There is no contradiction therein.

It’s not totally clear from the article but part of the rationale for switching off between Tylenol and Motrin is that one (Tylenol) is hard on your liver and the other (Motrin) can be hard on your kidneys. By switching back and forth, you’re taking less of either of them in any 24-hour period.

My cousin walked with both her dad and step dad... 1 arm each

Name one thing about Johnny Storm that this casting changes other than the color of his skin.

I love how the pizza bedding is dsiplayed in a spotless, modern-furnishings bedroom. Because I think the Venn diagram of “people who buy this bedding” and “people who have that furniture” is two circles about 500 light-years apart.

Plus I don't see a lot of people up in arms about when a white guy plays jesus.

I don’t really understand this reaction. How is this beautiful picture being turned into some kind of indictment? Yeah, I looked like crap when I was a new mom, but I’m not going to begrudge Trufino (or anyone else) for being genetically blessed and looking fabulous...good on her (and the glam squad for that shoot).

“Torn between an amazing stepdad and a patchy biodad who nonetheless would feel slighted if I chose my stepdad” <—- THAT EXACTLY MY SITUATION. I originally asked my mom to walk me down the aisle, she insisted I have my two brothers instead as a way of having them involved (we aren’t having a wedding party). My mom is…

I kind of like that it is sexy.

I’m ok with it being contrived. It’s a nice photo (except for her face- what’s going on there?) but don't lie about it, Justine Cullen.

See your husband understands that while its great that he has a way to cope by taking his pants off, it isn’t okay to use that particular coping method in the middle of the grocery store.

I can’t even deal with how horrifying the Daily Beast article is. She says you bond with the kangaroo because you have to feed it around the clock. You have to feed it around the clock because the monsters from the exotic animal auction probably stole the poor joey from its mother’s pouch. That's also why baby…

Americans are really schizophrenic about pets... Treating animals they eat like barbarians and asking for pets to be treated like children sometimes.It fascinates me.

Some clarification on the relevant law:

What you can’t see is the pile of failed attempts littering the Pizza Hut floor.

We had a morning wedding and boozey brunch reception, so no dancing or any traditional fare. But my husband and I wanted to have our first dance in Union Square (NYC) where we had our first date and he proposed. So at around 1pm we took our photographer with us and we did our dance and I brought along the “throw away”…

I am so sorry, but I’m laughing so hard at this.
