RIP Brittany!

not on an iPad, but Kinja has really been bugging out on my phone. It's an android so I don't know if it's a related issue.

Hmm... didn't know that. I'm more of a fantasy nerd, so the last thing I read that was romance was the Namaah's legacy series which skews more fantasy. Scary to think that anyone, much less a woman, would buy into that bullshit. :/

Yeah, like I said, I suppose it's entirely possible, but I just get a lot of red flags on this. It might just be my bat-shittery sensor, though.

I just went into shivers of ecstatic joy at that turn of phrase. "Flaxen-haired bobble head harpies." Beautiful.

Yeah, definitely feeling that, too. Never once have I ever seen a woman use the term "beta" or "alpha" in a non-mocking context. I suppose it's possible, but the alarm bells are ringing.

I don't think you read me this way, but as a clarification: I definitely don't think white people can't dance. I've danced all my life and know plenty of other white people who are great dancers. I just think line-dancing should be considered a crime against humanity and the (miserably failing) attempt at cultural…

I suppose that's true, and it makes me feel a bit better. However, that guy's dancing is a crime against human decency.

"We've seen the hip-hop dancing all over the United States and Canada."

True story: my name was ALMOST Jayne. And every time I think of this I get incredibly angry and yell random obscenities for a few minutes.

I don't know if that was what eisen meant. The op never said anything about renouncing all religion, just being wary of designing laws based on the whims of religious extremists. Also, while there may have been bans on religion in some communist countries (to answer your point about secular rigidity), I'm pretty sure…

Wish I could star this a million more times just for the wonderful rarity of referencing a ficus.

That .gif caused me to both laugh uncontrollably and desperately want to beg forgiveness for the actions of white people everywhere. I'm not sure why, but there it is.

Jeebus! I had completely forgotten about that one. Thank goodness you didn't. Seriously made my night.

I have two step-daughters, and I do know how to braid, but unless they ask me, I just make sure their hair is brushed and they're good to go. If they want a ponytail, fine, or I've occasionally done a pair and helped wrap them into a cool style on the older, but for the most part, both don't really want to sit long…

I commented upthread already, but my ring is a $2 pink plastic piece that I bought at the state fair. If I want fancy jewelry, I'd rather buy it for myself. Or at least have a better reason than "we're going to the courthouse so I get my name on our sweet, sweet VA home loan."

Mine is hot pink, plastic, slightly too large, and I bought it for myself for $2 at the Texas state fair. I told him not to bother getting anything else because then I couldn't wear my favorite ring. I have a bunch of passed down broken gold jewelry that can't really be repaired (a lot ofit is just in way too bad…

Erg. Awful. Also had a weird motel experience. Yours reminded me of it (thanks, I guess?) so I went ahead and posted it. Internet hugs. Glad you're still alive, that must have been terrifying.

So, Aikage's post reminded of this story. I hadn't thought about it in years.

In Italian, technically the correct pronunciation is "gwee-ah-DEE-chay" with the emphasis on the middle syllable, but hell if I know how it would be bastardized in Jersey.
