My mums besty was a lainie ('lanie', 'laney' or something to that effect), and a late teen/early twenties in the 90's, so there was at least one!

Wow, are we the same person? We have the same eating patterns! I wonder if that and our similar attitude to food is related? Hmmm.

Yeah I'm getting teenage story vibes from this one... It sounds like what I've overheard some of my students in the past fantasizing about me. You know, helping with their homework and 'accidentally' leaning my boobs onto their backs. Or coming round their house because they took the wrong test home.. I'm in my mid…

I have the same tendency! I think I assume other people are as relaxed about it as I am, but I need to remember that I am privileged to have an hourglass figure so putting on weight for me doesn't effect my self confidence, just my fitness, as I get butt, thighs and boobs, and my stomach pooches a little, but my jaw…

Someone asked a question, DaisyLady contributed her part, stop stuffing around and contribute something worthwhile instead of insulting others for answering a question asked of them, and in no way directed at you!

Haha my first tutor called them the Ivory Tower Idiots. All these 'learned' anthropologists acting like they were studying animals, not other humans. So glad the language in anthro has moved past it... Mostly..

I think you could be right. Until this article I didn't know this was a thing. I'm not American and am white; the main people I associate with are from asia and the middle-east, and I have heard awful racist stereotypes directed at those people, so it doesn't surprise me that this one exists as well, but it really…

Yeah, I'm not American, and am white, and wasn't aware that this was a racist way to demean African Americans. So I can see how someone would have just put the white 'boy hanger' on the clothes with white skin, and that would have left the African-American 'boy hanger' to the monkey, because they wouldn't have ever…

I am an introvert, and a massive fantasy/sci fi fan. Because I study recreationally (nothing to do with future job prospects), I needed to find ways of relaxing my brain while I'm at work/on the bus home/trying to sleep. So I started formulating really detailed day dreams that I consider to be my version of…

Which is why they're so great! Real conversations of your reactions to his finds are beauteous to behold.

That last sentence is the truest thing I've ever read.

Your comments on marks' conversations need there own posts, they're great!

Off-topic, but the acknowledging of my over-weightedness to people weirds them out so much! Like they feel obliged to say no your not, even though it's a lie, and they get this embarrassed look on their face. It's so weird! I've taken to saying "I've gotten fat." And holding up my hand when they go to speak and saying…

The fear is half the thrill /s

Yeah, there were so many evolutionary transition stages; as well as shared resources and a similar biology, that I really doubt chimps and humans were getting it on as common practice. More likely the original virus mutated in a water or food source, and chimps and humans were so genetically similar that they picked…

But, like, lots of us like dicks. I mean, I'd start making nasty comments just to get all those dicks you know... Anyway this one isn't as bad or as trollish as some I've come across; he seems genuine if harsh. I dunno, maybe I'm a bad jusge of character :/

Mummy jr. (Kim) obviously picked up the skills of the momager, and Kanye is being marketed the Kardahian way,by comparing him to how it must be 'challenging' to be a part of the family/lose friends etc. Plus North looks SO Much like him, it's amazing/easy to market.

I'm in my mid-twenties and have just set up my first voice-mail, only because my doctor prefers to leave messages and he has a private number, so it's the only to find out what's happening and which extension to call back on. But he's the only one that uses it, as with my friends/family/associates we text asking if…

I am going to over-share... It's not always liquid, sometimes its a jelly like substance. Reminds me of Gwyneth Patlrow, you know, GOOP. which can, depending on the weather, dry and FLAKE off of my leg... dandruff pubes.. Or drip/slide/move down my leg so it looks like pee or sweat. Also caused by…

So glad I'm not the only one! The worst experience for me was after swimming, forgetting my towel AND underwear, had to spend day in light blue school dress, commando, 10 Years old, not hair yet thank Goddess, but I sat down for a class and when I got up had a transparent layer of cloth on the back section of it,…
