@Susan B.: I was depressed by this year's too. For some reason, I find the musicals based on books a little better. Though they don't always work out very well either (see: Little Women).

@didntmeanto: This is the reason why my mom can't wear earrings any more. (My mom had her ears recently pierced when my brother was a toddler. He literally yanked a pair of earrings out of her ears, and they eventually closed up.)

@Pigasus: I'm on the small-end of the spectrum, but I do see bigger sizes at TJMaxx/Marshall's/Nordstrom Rack. They have some really cute, expensive brand shoes at 10/11. I feel like this wasn't possible a few years ago. Are they better now compared to back then?

@EmmaBatty: I've written about this before, but my feet shrunk. I've been gradually losing weight, and my feet has gotten narrower, I think. My previously socially accepted size (readily available) is now actually somewhat difficult to find. Some brands I covet are no longer available to me.

@bread_and_potatoes: I have an ethnic name that is often mispronounced/misspelled. It's the reason why I'm planning on picking fairly normal (but not too common) names for my future hypothetical children.

@ritarocksnosalt: I'm a slightly smaller cup, but love Chantelle bras. I was really lucky to find some (in my size!) at Marshall's/TJMaxx a few months ago. Under $20!

@Ginger Gal: I was watching for the graphics, and I loved the technical details of it. (I took an elective Computer Graphics course in college for my CS degree and have loved Pixar since.)

@The HZA.: Since the movies are CGI, you're going to have a lot of techies (mostly male). I think this played into the storywriting. The major players (Lasseter, Stanton, Bird, Doctor, etc) are also male.

@Cam/ron: Oh, god, I hope not. I've never heard Reese do an accent. I'm OK with none of the actors having a Scottish accent.

@egg cream: I loved the ending with the tag team and cheerleading section so that everyone has to play with the toddlers.

@The HZA.: Please see above for the 2012 release of Brave, female director and Reese Witherspoon voicing the lead [a Scottish princess who wants to be an archer].

@somnambulent: I loved the little girl. The last scene *spoiler*with Andy and her playing one last time with the toys was simply magic*spoiler*.

I am Pixar's bitch. But I've never liked the fact that there are very few female characters in their movies. Most of the writers, animaters, etc are male. Perhaps this is the reason?

@RandomReformed: I was forced to read this, and I really liked it. Even at age 11 (middle school), I really enjoyed it.

@GayRobotsRUS: I assume you mean the Asian-style ones with glutinous rice flour in them. Delicious.

@Devi: Matthew Morrison is the opposite of gay. I hear he's a bit of a player actually.

@babydeer: I've been known to tailgate and/or not allow a car to pass me if they have an anti-choice message on their car.

@TheTeofTea: My parents had a Cherokee (not the grand, but the regular one) for 10+ years and 250K+ miles. It died about two months ago, and we were all sad that it couldn't reach the 300K milestone.

@lucystrawberry: You are under some serious delusion, because the author would never kill her Edward.

@AndPreciousLittleofThat: Is that one for the boobs?
