Ok, that just makes this whole thing more fucked up.

It's an excuse to ogle. Really that's about it. I think when they started the inspirational weight loss stuff back when I was reading it pretty regularly, it was intended to be aspirational, but weight loss aspirational photos spiral into badness pretty easily. It also used to feature more guys than I'm betting it…

This is one of the reasons I had to stop reading The Chive. For every picture that falls into the "hey that's cool" category, there's one that is just horrible for me. I haven't been over there for years, but they used to have a gallery go thigh gaps and one with showing off girls' hip bones and it totally doesn't…

This is the truest thing anyone has ever said on the subject. I like the books just fine, but unfocused is the right word. GRRM needs an editor to reel him in.

My sister is like that you. Plus sized, no hips, no butt. Even if we were the same size, we couldn't wear the same type of jeans, and it's always been like that. If they can do it for petites and straight sizes (I can usually wear either, although straight sizes fit me better, I'm short, but curvy), I don't see why…

I do the 50% or more tip a lot on cheaper bills, like, say at a place like Steak and Shake. I just can never justify only leaving $1 or $2 on a sit down meal, even if all I ordered was fries or a shake that was like, $3. Space rental indeed.

Brands that carry multiple fits are my favorite. I need mid-high rise pants in short lengths for my curvy hips and butt. I am more willing to buy a brand that sells those things.

I want 2 kinds of paella right now.

What. I want pictures of this wedding with the bad gladiola color balance. Because I NEED to see what 60K gladiolas looks like together.

• I'm on the lower end of this, but why the hell not. In the 20k range- don't know the exact number because my parents paid for things without telling me exactly what they were spending (I had my contributions, but they kept adding things like guests and special things to the venue package, so I lost count).

Sounds like an ingenious tourism idea to me. Take a trip of the US- taste all of our state hotdogs and view all of our state birds. I am totally on board with this.

So true. I also get the weirdest looks at metal concerts because I do not look like a metal fan. Neither does my husband so people always look at use like we wandered into the wrong show. Now, in fairness, I'm not the biggest metalhead either, but my husband is and so I've seen him grilled like you do. Just because…

I love this bit about good colleges. Yeah, your Ivies are great, but depending on the program you're looking at, might not be any better than any other school, especially if you're looking at cost vs what you might be paid after. I say this a former student of a not so great public school who went to a public…

That's exactly why my school started weighing AP grades. In the class rankings, there was a big group of people who had 4.0s, but spent their entire senior year doing easy classes. Our school was also affiliated with a vo-tech, and the grades got skewed from that, because several classes were pass/fail.

The last I heard, they were working on a Polynesian one. There was a big casting call for voices not too long ago that my actor friends were going apeshit over.

I assumed it would be a movie version of the Broadway show?

Yeah, my ring didn't cost half that and is super nice. We also didn't have a band, so if you did your wedding just like we did, you'd cut off like, $5000 from the average just with those things. And my parents insisted on a pretty big wedding.

My undergrad university's instate tuition was $8000ish a semester and was on the cheaper end of everywhere I looked- which was primarily the Midwest. So... yeah, I need to know where the $14, 300 a year places are too.

Uggh the sugar in the peanut butter thing is the worst. I actually figured out that eating peanut butter was giving me headaches if I ate it at lunch until I switched over to the natural no added sugar kind. My in laws? Love the reduced fat peanut butter, which is the worst because you can taste how much sugar is in…

Every time I see this, as a former child cellist, I understand. A) that damn cello was bigger than me until high school. B) it is the worst cello song ever.
