I do agree that it is a more "adult" thing to do — admitting you don't know something and then actually asking for help with it. :) But, you're right, you learn so much when you ask questions. Plus, asking questions makes you seem more interested/involved in the conversation. And it makes the people you're asking feel

Pyrex is the SHIT. I'm taking barely anything with me as I beat feet in my divorce but I'll be DAMNED if I'm leaving behind a single scrap of my precious Pyrex.

Yep, she's real empowered.

If she doesn't understand something, it isn't that difficult to say, "I'm not very familiar with that I guess I need to educate myself and then we can chat!" rather than opening up your mouth and making us all 100% aware of your deficiencies.

Yes. I am currently going through a divorce. Due to circumstances, we've been living together for the past few months and have two more to go until I can move out. The number one rule for my life these days is "Don't be a dick." I'm making dinner and obviously he needs to eat and even though I fucking hate him...

My cousin — who I'm pretty sure chose the date of her wedding to coincide with the date I chose to move out of my divorce-house — is getting an old piece of furniture that she requested from me. I cannot afford more. I can barely afford to show up , since my money has to go toward getting me out of my house.

Because waiting around for an entire lifetime on the hopes of feeling "whole" really isn't a great way to live your life?

So... Old School but with hottie Zac Efron?

I'm hitting 35 in a month and I have one vendor who every. single. time. he calls me starts the convo out with, "So, have you seen any shirtless Zac lately?" just to bust me on my Zac Efron crush.

Yes. Just yesterday I gave a bag full of clothes (with the tags still on) to a friend because the shirts in the bag ranged in size from L-XXXL and NOT A SINGLE ONE OF THEM FIT ME.

Even still, it shouldn't be said. And in such a manner.

I think she pimped out Lourdes for that juniors line.

She actually said that to you? Rather than letting you figure it out? I can't even...

Really? Because to listen to the designers on Project Runway, it is incredibly more difficult to dress a large woman than a slender woman.

Yes. Someone could make a killing on clothes for us big gals.

Yep — not just overweight but anyone outside the "norm" has issues. I'm tall and big-boned and a little overweight. It is a nightmare. I just wear the same basic khaki shorts and t-shirts everyday and express myself through bumperstickers, shoes, and my loud self because fashion is not a means of self-expression.

I live in this "in between" zone. It is very frustrating because it is impossible to dress in anything other than basic khaki shorts (or pants if you don't live in Florida) and a basic polo/knit plain top. No one makes clothes for me and everyone looks at me like I'm fucking nuts when I complain. I do NOT fit into

Horrible to everyone except notorious blood-diamond lovin' tyrants.

I've noticed that something is more important than make-up — a SMILE gets me a pleasant response from most people regardless of what I have on for clothes and make-up.

Good thing you never purchase gifts for other people with different sizes.
