Has anyone pointed out that the steer was purchased by Bruce Rauner who is on the Republican ticket for the gubernatorial election in IL? He is also accused of not being upfront about the bajillions of dollars he has stashed in various foreign banks. I mean, I'd totally sell him my bull(shit) for $100000. But that…

My gym clothes definitely get smelly if I leave them sit in the hamper too long, but unless I spill something on my myself (which actually happens more often than it should) I can wear a shirt more than once, which really cuts down on laundry too. My friends' initial reaction is always a shocked look that I'm not…

I've been looking for another deodorant free person on here! Neither me nor my boyfriend wear it. He smells just fine to me. In fact, I like his natural scent. We're both just really good about showering and keeping clean after sweating or working out, and everything seems to be fine. Now, I don't recommend it for…

True. Unless you have friends who will tell you flat out if you smell. I stopped using deodorant too, but only after a test period where I made sure around my closest gals that I didn't smell! They confirmed it for me, so I ditched the deodorant and couldn't be happier!

Are you a heavy sweater? I'm not and I haven't used deodorant in over 2 years. Even when I work out. Now, to clarify, I just don't think I have a lot of pores in my underarms. I shave my armpits maybe once a month and you can barely even tell there's any hair there. So, I think I'm a special case when it comes to…

Learn to sew! I know that sounds way easier said than done, but I was inspired a few years ago when I found a wrap dress that was essentially a sheet with a tie for $300. A cape is simple enough shape wise that you could experiment with some super cheap muslin until you get the basics down and then craft one in the…

She probably makes "Honey Do" lists too. I was at a shower this weekend and the number of times I heard some middle aged suburban lady with a Lily Pulitzer bag tell my friend that her marriage will be saved with a "Honey Do" list made the want to vomit in my mimosa.

For real lucky! I have a friend who did catch it from a botched basement tattoo when we were kids. I think it was supposed to be a guitar, but it looks more like a dying shark. And now she has a lifetime of regret accompanying it.

The Black Celebration icons are my boyfriend's dream tattoos.

This musical and the Bernadette Peters version that they always played at 1am on PBS when I was a kid are the exact reason I got involved in theatre, and am still working in it after almost 2 decades. I don't think I can watch this movie because it will never be the same. But I am going to find the PBS broadcast…

I work in theatre (designer, not an actor) and my bf always comes to see the shows I do. I try not to give anything away so he can give me an objective review, but he always knows when I'm working on a musical because I start singing really random shit while doing the dishes or walking the dog. I usually get a "You…

Holy crap. I'm your Chicago twin! Half sleeve of flowers and Chicago flag tattoo!

Also white with babyhairs. I never thought of them as specific to one ethnicity. I went to a very diverse all girls high school and baby hairs were often a topic of lunchtime discussion, especially around prom time, because it seemed like everyone had them. I always just thought of it as a girl problem.

The sexy ones creep me out! There's a real classy photography place that I walk by often. It has an entire window display of all the awesome shots they do, complete with photoshopped imagery. My my favorite is the topless pregnant woman clutching her stomach, with the father behind her holding her breasts. There is…

I know! And the kids too! You know they're the smelly kids in class. Poor things.

I would kill someone if they made me pay :) Yeah, I checked into it. I actually took some classes for fun before I decided on what to actually take. So, I'm already part of the system.

2%?! That's awful. I've only been here a year and a half, so I'm still disillusioned. One of my coworkers had a heart attack last year and just used vacation and sick time for MONTHS until he retired. But then we were down an employee and couldn't even get temp help because technically dude still worked for us.

Some people don't figure it out! I worked with a guy in his 40s who reeked of BO, cigarettes, infected feet, and not having washed in possibly 10 years. He was SUPER gross. And a complete weirdo too, so I never felt bad covering my nose and mouth with a scarf when he was around. Then one day we were working late…

My boss brought up the Netflix thing at my co-workers review. But that's about it. It's a two-part problem at my job. Not only do we have union protection (I'm in the union, but still do work!), but we also have a boss who doesn't like confrontation, so people get away with murder around here. I probably would…

Without giving too much away, I work for a state institution and our HR has basically told us that unionized employees basically have to commit a felony on work premises in order to get fired. It has led to some SERIOUS slackers at this place. I see people sleeping all over the building. The guy in the office next…
