I just had to have an echo cardiogram performed in preparation for a surgery. I was completely comfortable with the male tech, who was super professional and friendly in a non-creepy way. However, even 10 years ago, I would have just refused to have the tests done, and backed out of the surgery, because all of my…

Apparently Consumer Science (which covers banking, taxes, loans, budgeting, and smart shopping) is no longer taught because we no longer require kids to take Home Economics.

This. “That would never happen to me, #iamverysmart.”

I have an uncle that went a little nutso in the 90's. Once he divorced my aunt, he seemed so normal again. Makes me wonder if Tom wasn’t actually crazy and stupid, but it was just being married to Roseanne.

No, it’s barely double what it was 20 years ago. I paid $1.10-1.25/gallon in 1998, the first year I lived on my own and had to fill a tank. I never put a whole $20 in the tank. That was back when people mostly still paid cash for their gas.

That’s a great rate. My husband and I are 40, no tickets, and have a ‘16 Sienna and a 2000 S10, and pay $1600/year in Chicago burbs for comprehensive and uninsured motorist coverage. We have more than minimal coverage, though.

Feminism.

And isn’t that a sad and discouraging commentary on men?

Butthat’s how I hold them when I count, so I don’t know why all money isn’t like that.

Not gonna lie. Seeing Wanda’s sister choke up like that made me sob.

Sorry, but Americans are so fucking narcissistic and poorly educated the only way you can explain things to us is to compare them to something America or an American has done.

Her Majesty has pubes that shed. Who would have thought it?!

Ew, no. I put the berries, water, and sugar in the pan, start it heating, and then zest and juice an orange add that, and continue cooking until I hear the berries start to pop. Then one minute (or so) longer.

It seems like “don’t store all your frozen eggs in one freezer basket” would be the first rule of fertility clinics.

A lot of ProLife people are opposed to the entire concept of delayed fertility, for many and varied reasons.

I’m not saying I don’t give a duck about redheaded lesbian midgets, I’m just coincidentally saying we should allot speaking time at rallies based on height.

Life pro tip: Next time stop before the “but” so folk don’t know you are a bigot.

So, it’s a lemon drizzle cake? I like substituting lime juice or orange juice for the lemon. (If the recipe calls for jello, you’d switch that out, too.)

You’ve got to hit up thrift shops and estate sales. That’s how I found duplicates of my mom’s cookbook collection. Also the amazing sewing reference book from Reader’s Digest.

I use the ocean spray recipe, but I add some grated orange zest and orange juice.
