I'm not knowledgeable about Hunger Games at all, but now I want to be, based purely on this.

My friend's kid looked like he was half elf, half shark. He got really cute by about nine months, but initially he was just fucking weird.

I quite often photograph young babies and every word you say is true.

I've been wondering about this. I've changed my name recently and my new one is apparently really exotic-in-a-good-way in my home country but very illegal-immigrant-go-home in the US. Of course, I wouldn't want to deal with anyone who would judge me on my name, but perhaps that's impossible to avoid. It's a totally…

I think that's what bugged me about it — the assumption that I must be a Mrs Madame rather than a Miss Mademoiselle based on age, when could easily have been Madam at 16 or might still be Miss at 90. I think it's the assumption that I should be married that annoyed me. (So I annoyed everyone who insisted on calling me…

I was wretchedly correct and told people off for calling me "ma'am" in America or "madam" in England when I wasn't married.

I do love miss and mrs, and am glad ms exists for those who'd prefer it. Let's keep 'em all! Options, glorious options!

I just got married and will definitely echo everyone else in saying to ignore everything that doesn't sound brilliant — anything that sounded interesting or fun or lovely, we did, and anything that sounded expensive or boring or tiresome or tacky or cheesy or not very "us" we skipped. There are about 897,680 wedding…

I don't think there's really any clear way to know what to do, or when to do it (or not do it)… I suppose you just have to make a decision one way or the other, and go for it with gusto.

I think it's just guaranteed annoyance whatever you do — I double barrelled my name recently for a variety of reasons, and I *know* it's not a big deal if people address something informal with a wrong name, but it just gets annoying when it keeps happening, doesn't it? (My husband's name's pretty much unheard of in…

I've never worn ANYTHING in a sauna, so you sound pretty dressed to me!

Yeah, I thought she was just joking. I'm suprised to be reading so much outrage about it. Surely no grown woman would think she'd look eight, what with all the height and boobs and general adultness going on?

Yeah, I really prefer his to mine. (Plus, mine was made up by my granddad because no one could spell the crazy, accidental name the family ended up with when my illiterate Lithuanian great-great grandparents turned up in London, so it's not a grand family tradition.)

Ah, I was lucky because I got married abroad so my mum didn't get to do much more than just turn up!

Maybe the "just show up" thing is a good way to go… there was stuff my mother in law sprung on me two days before the wedding that I got all secretly stressed about and didn't want to happen… and then on the day it happened and I thought it was cute and hilarious and everyone was happy.

Yeah, I had a very small number of relatives at mine. My husband had a million, billion relatives there, though, so it became a big-ish wedding.

Yep. I had four relatives at my wedding, and my husband had about 80. If I'd been marrying someone who happened to have the same type of family as me, it'd have been a small wedding… but instead I got a brilliant California Mexican wedding and an exciting name that sounds exotic where I come from. Hurray!

Me too. I spent an insane amount of money on eyebrow serum that is supposed to make them magically grow, but it's been THREE WHOLE DAYS AND THEY STILL AREN'T LADY MARY-ESQUE!

Was the pumpkin one at Hallowe'en? Does he "bonn" different things for different holidays?
