My daughter is currently in 1st grade and they're working on memorizing sight words. As an incentive to the kids, the teacher offered a Friday lunch party to the class if everyone knew the list of sight words for the week. If one or more kids failed to learn and memorize the list, the class would not be able to have

This woman isn't protecting her snowflake's feelings, she's shielding her from life. Sometimes a kid's just got to suck it up and learn about disappointment and not being #1 all the time. I'll bet anything that woman is a regular at her daughter's school. And not the good kind of regular who brings in treats for the

And if your child reacts that badly to disappointment, you probably shouldn't apply them for Jeopardy to begin with.

This feels like a chopper-mom/stage-mom kind of thing. I am so sick of people with their

To minimize pores, go get multiple sessions of professional dermabrasion.

We decided LONG ago that he is not allowed to discuss my weight with me, ever. But he's okay if I discuss his (he's a triathlete and in his off-season he balloons up like the goddamned Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man, busting out of his clothes and costing me money), so it kind of works out. Haha. He's allowed to encourag

I get that her ass is like her trademark, but I hate seeing dismembered-looking body parts floating around on their own.

Damn wild beasts. I ended up with a slight black eye for a few days after this too. There was one puncture right under my eye and that is a sensitive area and some blood must have stayed under the skin. My co workers made fun of me for being in an abusive relationship with my pet. I didn't appreciate the victim

Just signed off on the lease, now I have a $450 a month apartment for next semester! Includes all heating, plumbing, utilities and internet! It's next to a bus stop and 1/4 mile from my school! I have an internship, and I applied for a job!

I'm going to a birthday party next weekend for a Historical Friend. We've been friends for 20 years. We don't hang out a lot, but we do have fun when we do.

I'd agree with you on most of that, but maybe we can say that crossing state lines should require it. Although, to be honest, I'd never have thought you could even get a cab to take you that far in the first place!

I did the grocery shopping and took a cab home from age 10 on. So cabs were the only reason I even had food to eat. My mother was too busy partying to worry about details like that, so she just gave me a grocery store card and a monthly tab at a cab service instead.

As a fat woman with an active sex life, I know one person who definitely is.

I've made a (very lucrative) career out of being a fat sexworker, so yeah - there are a lot of people "in to that".

I am not a business savvy person, I am not good with money, I'm not athletically gifted or particularly beautiful. But damn, if I have some of the most healthy, rewarding and supportive relationships I have ever. I think it is my only true asset.

He is the best part about that ridiculously stupid show. He basically makes his living making fun of the most easily mockable family in America.

I'm German with dad, brother and lifelong friends still there, on a fellowship in New Zealand, my husband is also European, and both our extended families are in the U.S. Somehow we're managing. We both have dedicated content on private servers to post photos and data about professional pursuits. It's hardly an

Truth. I'm the same age as Zuckerberg, so Facebook didn't exist until my senior year in college. It was huge then, and I was super into it for a few years. It was shockingly liberating when I decided to delete it.

I stole apple juice from my school's cafeteria in high school. I was thirsty. I got caught. My punishment was to wash dishes (I had already been suspended so many times that the school saw it as ineffective punishment, so they got creative). It was actually awesome! I talked to all of the cafeteria staff, they cracked

I come from a long family of thieves. My parents (who had 7 kids) were hooked up with both the Irish mob and Italian mafia through family and friend connections (Sonny Black from Donnie Brasco was a huge fan of my mother's cooking). My father worked in the trucking industry and if you remember that scene from
