@lalie (apologetic mess): I don't know, but I think it's tradition. My family is from Germany (I'm third generation American) and on my mom's side, no one had a middle name until I came along - and I have an older sister, too.

We had a cockapoo named Friskie growing up. I named her after a dog in the Looney Tunes cartoons. I have a cat named Diva. I am no longer allowed to use names I think are ironic to name animals. They always live up to their names instead.

@Jellybish: Technically, you only need one every three years unless you have a history of abnormal results. But yeah, that'the only reason I went to see my doc every year was to get a new Rx.

Angela Bassett. If only she'd get more great roles!

@MakeitRainDre: Hey, you rhymed!

I didn't know Kyra Sedgwick was in this movie.

@battleaxonista...is a humorless bitch: I know! And she's so pretty with that fresh-scrubbed look.

Wrinkles or no wrinkles, what did they do to make Val look constipated in the promo shot?

"One morning I texted an elephant in my pajamas. How he got into my pajamas I'll never know."

@AngriestGeek: Can you imagine her training Nancy Grace? *shudders*

Love. It. Love her! I dance, and I hope I can still hang at 93. But I subscribe to the notion that if you don't use it, you'll lose it. So whether it's dance, golf, bowling, or whatever it is you love to do - continuing it to do it and enjoying it is going to continue YOU.

@BringerofthePain: My co-worker is waiting for her close-up.

nevermind

I've wanted to stab my brain with a pointy stick for the last couple days because it won't stop playing "Bad Romance." I won't watch this because I'm afraid "Alejandro" will replace it. I'd seriously rather have "Don't Worry, Be Happy" or "Hey, Ya!" be the broken record in there right now.

All through HS I was told I had a "black girl booty." For a 16-yo white girl in an almost all black school/neighborhood/city, it was a HUGE compliment. As time went on, I had issues with it. I just get tired of the "us" and "them" attitudes.

Well, we can't use any kind of term that is in any way endearing because nobody wants to imagine the olds having the sex. By calling her his companion or sidekick, we can only imagine they play Nintendo together and fight crime, just like Batman and Batgirl!

Oh, Debbie Harry, you warm my heart of glass.

"I do not want a surprise! If I am to have a surprise, I want to know about it!"

Congratulations and best wishes, Anna! I have truly enjoyed the last 3 years. You really have given us all something very special, and I know Jessica and all of us will continue on in the spirit which you started this whole thing. I look forward to your future contributions and once again, wish you the very best. …

You know what's distracting? A whole bunch of stuff. You know what's pitiful? People that can't get past the distractions and get their work done. Gawd, this whole thing is stupid.
