Well, while you're on the subject false analogies, having unprotected sex with someone whilst knowing you have HIV or AIDS is an intentional act. Not at all the same as merely existing without taking a flu shot. I didn't say, "hey, I know I've got the flu... I'm going to go cough on your baby or your grandmother!" …

There's an old saying, attributed to everyone from Mark Twain to Julia Child if you believe the interwebs, that goes "everything in moderation.... including moderation." It drives me up a friggin' wall when weight loss is distilled down to this one. slice. of. cake. Or that single. chocolate chip. cookie. As if…

For anyone actually looking for a sane cleanse, I did Clean two years ago and found it totally rational and do-able and not likely to lead to passing out or dizziness, although I think epic pooping is ALWAYS a side effect of eating only whole foods. Clean allows you two liquid meals and one solid meal a day and the…

was this post actually your cleanse? Like, you dumped all the shit that's been collecting in your brain (like, you know, unused neurons) onto readers as a way to purge yourself for New Year? Cuz this just sounds nuts. Balls-out crazytown. And also like you're a self-righteous asshole who puts other people down to…

I'm saying NO ONE is off the hook.... or everyone is, since there is no hook to begin with. None of us is responsible for protecting other people's health. Try to understand the comments before responding to them in the future.

TO EVERYONE ACCUSING QUEEN HONEYBEE OF MURDERING SMALL CHILDREN AND ELDERS, BEING STUPID, BEING CARELESS OR HEARTLESS : YOU YOURSELF HAVE NO IDEA WHETHER YOU'VE INFECTED SOMEONE WITH THE FLU (vaccine or not) THIS YEAR OR IN ANY OTHER YEAR WHICH INFECTION LATER LED TO THAT PERSON'S DEATH. Think before you speak (or…

ooooo!!! You just made my night! Imma go find that Fresh Air interview right NOW! And try not to make cookie dough for the raw eating while I'm listening to it!

well, gee, thanks so much for pointing out that farcical image conjured up for amusement's sake isn't how real advertising works! It did just crush my vision of Mad Men gathered around the conference room table picking ideas out of hats, but... glad I got mahself uh edgamacation today.

I don't find it so much offensive as just plain stupid. I mean, were there really 15 marketing execs sitting around a table that all thought to themselves, YEAH, THAT'S THE ONE! Is this really the height of advertising creativity?

sooooo sweet! Thanks!

so even though people who don't like dating have a viewpoint most similar to yours that you should probably think about before speaking about a subject you've had no personal contact with for several years, you're still going to justify your insensitive comment by saying "well, some people just LURVE dating???" Jesus.

OK, don't say "I live vicariously through your dating stories!" and "Dating sounds soooo awful! I'm so glad I don't have to do it!!" It's about the worst thing you can do to your singleton friends. It's like saying "wow, I am SO GLAD I don't have to live your life! Ha ha!" Rejoice in the partners you've found, but…

There's a general distrust and dislike of women who are all or any of the following on Jez and in the feminist culture: 1) skinny; 2) beautiful; or 3) willing to use their thin, beautiful bodies to their own advantage. We feminists also tend to demonize skinny, beautiful women (regardless of whether or not they use…

I always like to think I'm all sexually liberated and everything.... and then I see a video like this of a hairy-chested beefcake messin' around with some yummy sugar chocolate stuff and I turn into a puddle of tingles and giggles. Thanks, Jez.

Nordstrom, Nordstrom, Nordstrom, Nordstrom. They know what they're doing and they carry bras that start at about $30 and go up from there, so they can probably find something that fits YOU and your BUDGET!

Y'all....... "Husbands Share What is Disrespectful to Them"

I didn't get uncivil - a little bit judge-y maybe, but I'm used to it. Glad that there are other strong female attorneys out there getting it done - however they choose to do it.

I agree with you actually.... except on one point. Manipulation is how we get what we want in life. We call it other things like negotiation or compromise, but in the end people who get what they want are willing to do the things necessary to get them. That's manipulation. It might be subtle or it might be overt,…

Yawn.
