I briefly dated a guy with a hypnosis fetish. For him it was about control, hypnotizing women and being able to turn them on/even orgasm by just telling them to. Maybe that sounds a little creepy, but I wasn't too fazed by it. It was just another way of acting out a control scenario.

They want to repeal the Endangered Species Act? But...but...

I feel like it's relatively easy to get a date, but more difficult to find someone who isn't an arrogant douchebag (DC has a preponderance of those)

Sounds like you have a case of Henri Ennui. I'm having issues too, but I'm trying harder here than I did at Gawker because I like the people better and don't want to miss out on comments. Here's what I have figured out (hopefully it actually helps):

I would assume kids get sicker from the packets because they're designed to be more concentrated. Whenever I take one out to put it in the dishwasher I like to play with it...it's pretty colors and it's squishy. I would judge these kids for being stupid...but I once picked up and played with a piece of cactus,…

She's obviously passing Hillz the plans for the next Muslim Sisterhood potluck. Pull the wool off your eyes!

If you respect his acting you've clearly never seen him in The Eagle. I always thought he had the acting skills of a cardboard box, but a. he's yummy and b. sometimes his lack of ability comes off as cute and endearing so I let it slide.

I made it through the whole thing and now I want to dip my brain in lye. My friend and I are always on the lookout for the worst Youtube song ever, and I think I just took the whole thing. This knocked 3 Second Rule out cold.

Did anyone else notice there's a girl who looks like she's wearing two bathing suits? Is this a new thing the kids are doing?

I'm torn between jealousy that you all stole my line of thought first and relief that I am not the only one thinking this. That's not a six pack, kiddo, that's your pre-pubescent skinny ass torso.

I think the fact that these were pugs made it a million times better. I just can't get enough pugs.

Megachurches go against pretty much everything Jesus ever taught. Heads of megachurches have already had to do some pretty intense moral gymnastics to justify their positions, so I will be staying far, far away.

...and adoption it is *ties tubes*

As I hypochondriac and a chronic worrier, looks like the first thing I'm going to do when I get pregnant is sign up for prenatal yoga. Otherwise I fear that my head will explode from the stress and anxiety...and I can only imagine how much THAT prolongs the birth.

Looks to me like that's bureaucratic-speak for "the guy is lying." I can't imagine why anyone would make up that kind of story...plus you'd think there would be witnesses who remember a man desperately scrambling to collect his grandfather's ashes from the floor. What an awful situation. Hopefully they do a bit more…

My heart sank when I saw Jezebel's post yesterday. I've had the same reaction to the comments on Gawker, and when they switched I spent even more time on Jezebel because it was so much more intuitive. From what I could tell, the overwhelming reaction to the new commenting system was, and still is, negative. I've been…

I started a jogging regimen and promptly broke my ankle for no good reason. Those women are superheroes to me.

Every time someone says this I can't help but go and look. I never learn! There are some straight up sociopaths commenting on that article. Sweet Christ.

When I was about 4, my friend cut off all my hair. My mom was livid, mostly because I apparently had just had a very nice haircut a couple of days before. She obviously didn't really punish my friend (who was maybe 5 at the time) but I had to rock a bowl cut for the next few months. Not my finest hour.

This seems like such a great idea for nursing homes. More places should do this! And I love how in the beginning that duck will stop at nothing to get that guy's button off his shirt. Talk about focus.
