I made my theatrical debut in my kindergarten production of “Feeling Your Oats”, a play in which small children get locked in a supermarket overnight and are lectured - by the food - on proper nutrition. I was the potato. My mom made my costume. It was just me enveloped in a brown fabric blob. I had one line and I…

One of my ex’s took me to a restaurant that specialized in “exotic protein” for Valentine’s Day. I had snake. It was terrible. Not because snake is actually terrible, but they did a terrible job. Sigh.

Ren & Stimpy was banned for us, which I sort of get because my brother and I did sneak an episode or two in and honestly I had nightmares.

I’ve been to 2 Top Chef places:

Any advice for a girl with a shellfish allergy? I’ve wanted to try Korean food (put me in the “intimidated that I’ll look clueless” camp), but shrimp paste/unlisted seafood ingredients are a no-go for me. Any recommended dishes?

My father’s family background is Italian and Greek. Since the 2016 election, my family has had many conversations about how Americans with similar backgrounds to ours have short memories, including his living parents, who voted for Trump. Southern Europeans got bumped up to Caucasian status in the US once people a…

Some questions I have after watching A Christmas Prince (Mr. Bennet provided moral support):

I hope the staff of Elle is prepared. She is the greatest.

I will always remember laughing my ass off during the 2009 Oscars when everyone was slobbering over Avatar and Kathryn Bigelow got Best Director over her dick of an ex-husband. My glee knew no bounds.

I was 8 and my brother was 5 when this movie came out and we LOVED IT. My grandfather is a fan of the comics from when he was growing up, so my dad took us to see it in the theater. The script is corny and the plot is iffy, but a guy in a purple suit also rides a horse through Manhattan and there are magic skulls and…

I work in fundraising and this can happen, and it’s a worst-case scenario. This means that the donor has either a) gone broke and can’t fund their pledged gift or, in this case, b) became such a nightmare and the relationship is so bad that it’s detrimental to pursue the funding. Especially if the donor is powerful…

My husband and I were just looking into this! Late March, late August, all of September and the end of November are all relatively slow times at Disney World.

There was never a set that begged for Baz more than the Cave of Wonders.

This is amazing. This is even better than the time my friend convinced his gf that the first Star Trek reboot movie was Star Wars Ep 7.

I have never seen the X-Files but Mr. Bennet is a fan of the original run - I asked if I should give it a try with the revival, and he advised against it because it hasn’t aged well, especially regarding the early treatment of Scully. It floors me, because Gillian Anderson is amazing in everything (particularly the…

This is very likely. The last time my father was on a jury it was for a big-ish local case and he had one fellow juror file a complaint against him because my dad kept telling him that this was not CSI and he couldn’t demand evidence that didn’t exist or make up scenarios that didn’t happen to create doubt.

“One of the coolest visuals in Wonder Woman was when Diana went undercover at a Nazi party”

I don’t know why but I see this and I can only think of Mr. Mole from Thumbelina:

I think at this point EVERYONE is the love of Drake’s life.

I worked at Starbucks for a brief time after college and I haven’t ordered a frappuccino since, because it is annoying as hell to make. I would have lost my mind if I had to make 400 regular ones in one day, let alone some insane unicorned variety.
