You should have seen some of the other women on his season. She is a bastion of maturity in comparison! (Like, he took one girl to meet his parents and his mom was so upset by how much of a child the girl was she cried. Ben didn’t even bother waiting until the rose ceremony... she was gone that afternoon!) To be fair,…

Same. My husband and I don’t have kids yet but I work in education and am determined to send any kids we might have to CPS for as long as possible. I hear about people hauling their kids all across the city to go to charter schools or spending $15k+/year to send a single child to private school and it just... no. Not…

That’s why I usually have it on in the background while I’m doing other things. Also, I almost never watch it live, because 1/2 of it is commercials. >_< Gotta be able to fast forward through that!

Or Hugh Grant cheating on Elizabeth Hurley...

I’m pretty sure they’re black and gold??

I’ve been getting the catalog for probably 6 years now and I DEFINITELY remember seeing the vibrator section... not recently, though. :’( Glad to know they’re still available on their online store! Grannies need to get off, too!

Sea urchin can be a little bitter if it’s not fresh. Fresh uni should be rich and creamy. Adding a quail egg does enhance the natural flavors of the uni; try that if you’re unsure how long the uni’s been sitting.

Oh. My. God. Oh yeah a payment plan for 12 QUADRILLION euros. How nice of them. How much you wanna bet that generous offer was given to her by an 18yo junior customer rep. >_>

The producers of this show are very savvy. It wouldn’t surprise me if they facilitated or at least OK’d their communications before the show. I’m guessing Jordan was already in the running to be a contestant before Jojo was even selected as bachelorette; I’m curious if they started chatting before or after she was…

I haven’t watched last night’s episode yet, buuuut I’m sorry, Des had such a lousy crop of guys. T_T Still can’t believe she ended up marrying Chris, especially after she was painfully in love with Brooks until basically the last episode.

*Possible spoiler*

Oh also you might bleed just a little, but it’s normal! That sometimes happens when your cervix is touched—same thing sometimes happens during sex. I also found that pelvic exams became slightly less uncomfortable after I did start having sex! ^^;

Yay! Welcome! I’ve been here for a decade and won’t be leaving if I can help it. Don’t worry, I hate sports, too. (Especially the Cubs. I went to several games because “you have to!” and despised every second. Fuck Wrigleyville. But I find the Blackhawks to be actually pretty entertaining, as far as sports go.)…

Oh my god I do the same (pill and condoms in a long-term relationship) and thought I was the only one! I was told “two forms of birth control” for so long that not using one or the other scares me. I just really don’t want to get pregnant. T_T

It’s totally normal to feel nervous! I think I first went to a gynecologist when I was 17 or 18, just because that’s what’s recommended. I was not sexually active yet at that point.

When my parents’ kitty passed away 2 years ago my parents had him cremated. They keep his ashes in their room in a little basket with his collar and a clay paw-print they made at the vet. I keep meaning to order a pet urn for them, as I think they’re beautiful and a good memorial. There are a lot of really gorgeous…

Is he ok? Hmm... I think you’d get a variety of answers from our friends. ;P He’s definitely a difficult person to get along with sometimes, but thankfully he’s over his acronym phase.

I use Aveeno Cleanser and it gets off my waterproof mascara well enough for me. I just don’t bother with eyeliner anymore. :P

I used liquid liner for a hot second but since my eyes are suuuuper watery and I cry from nearly any emotion, I needed a waterproof liner that wouldn’t budge. That also means they’re impossible to remove with normal methods... the only thing that worked was baby oil!!! After doing that for a few weeks I had to throw…
