This is just horrifying. I tried why "these kids" were having trouble paying their student debt to a friend that graduated college in the 90s. The amount the tuition has multiplied by, just since I graduated in 2002 is disgusting. Living on campus now costs 4 times what it did then, and I only went to a small state…

I bought my niece some Lalaloopsy dolls, I think they're cute and the back story is kind of neat, and I had a $5 off coupon from Target, she's also getting coloring books and crayons. Her brother gets a Shel Silverstein book and a magic kit. What sucks is that I know the little jerks are getting a Wii, but since I…

I grew up in a town between 2 interstate stops, in my college days I worked more than 1 job that had me either cashier-ing in the gas station or waiting tables in the restaurant. This brought me to the conclusion that drivers were 92% disgusting pigs. They were constantly asking me if I was "even old enough to drive,"…

Having worked at a truck stop one summer, I'm going to go ahead and take offense on behalf of Maxim. The owner of the place was friends with my parents and wouldn't even schedule me on "delivery day" out of embarrassment for actual truck stop porn. That did not stop drivers from suggestively wiggling their eyebrows at…

I'm seconding your suggestion. There's nothing in this bracket that even comes close.

This is the only half-decent version of a Southside Johnny & the Asbury Jukes Christmas song on youtube, but he's pretty fantastic. My apologies if this song depresses you.

Also, hating Andy Williams is just another way of saying you hate Christmas.

I'm on Team Last Christmas with you, it's a perfect little pop gem. I shall send you a note saying I love you, I meant it.

The Big Man ho ho hoing invalidates your Santa Claus is Coming to Town argument.

NO! It's the WORST! I viscerally hate that song. Like, I have a bodily reaction. Thank you Philadelphia radio and my probably autistic art director.

Not to me. It looks like she bought it at Forever 21, is what I think part of the problem is.

Thank you for being on my way home AND allowing me to mail packages from you, Beach's Hardware. You also make me giggle, with your "complete toilet" sign in the window, I don't know what that is but it sounds silly.

That Decoded episode was new last week. I specifically remember DVRing it. Looks like it's reruns of Fort Knox & Mount Rushmore this week. Or, whoops, it's 2012: It Has Begun this week. Ominous.

Good for you! I'm down about 10 in as many weeks, although I did gain over Thanksgiving and expect to over Christmas. Ham, wine, cookies, I don't want to resist.

According to my calculations based on Wikipedia, it looks like it was about 9 months before she became a spokesperson. Baby in August 2009, WW in April 2010.

You are right about The Oprah, I'll agree.

It would, but she's a celebrity, so I'm sure she has to jump on the deal if she wants it. I'm just saying it's a pretty sensible way to lose weight, and something that works in real people's lives. Not like say, a raw, macrobiotic diet prepared by a personal chef, a personal trainer and 5 nannies.

It'll be much harder for Elle Woods to talk Cameron Diaz out of that truly hideous orange sweater. Thanks, Pantone! And by the way, whoever said orange is the new pink was seriously disturbed.

Eh, I couldn't see dealing with counting points as soon as I had a baby, but Weight Watchers is a pretty sensible way to diet. And, I don't know anyone it hasn't worked for, or isn't currently working for, myself included, as long as you stay within your allowances. Also, it's not like, "BAM! Skinny!" If she's…

There's a method that you make it by putting chemicals into a bottle that doesn't require fire. Not so fun fact, I know this because that method started a fire that burned down a several houses in my hometown 2 years ago.
