“Hathaway herself has copped to the legitimacy of internalized at least some of the criticism...”

My parents purposefully made friends almost exclusively with childless people. We all preferred it that way.

My parents were only friends with childless people (for this very reason), and never volunteered at school ever. They watched my concerts and drama performances, and then they left immediately after. They dropped us off at birthday parties, and they never would have invited any parents in for playdates, or hung out…

What is amazing is I have shared meals with men I could imagine having sex with, were we unattached, and we just didn’t have sex. In fact, as a monogamously married woman, I regularly don’t have sex with people I am attracted to. The secret is that, instead of having sex with people who aren’t my husband, I don’t do…

I am absolutely befuddled by the people who voted for “going to bed hella early.” Early bedtimes are for children. You can do it as an adult, sure, but is there a big group of adults who go to sleep earlier as adults than they did as children?

Yeah, I picked long vacations because I have actual memories of that, while the largest raise I’ve ever gotten was 7%, and when I was broke it was usually like, “Here is an extra $0.25/hour! Go clean the men’s room! Someone had an accident!”

Children. That’s what the bracket is about. Children get 2-3 month vacations.

And some versions of Aphrodite have her created when Cronus (Zeus’s dad) castrated Uranus (Zeus’s grandpa), and threw the severed genitals into the sea. The, ahem, “foam” from this formed Aphrodite, Zeus’s aunt (but in other tellings, his daughter).

IIRC Peggy Lee was in litigation with Disney over this song until her death.

Decluttering is amazing. Before that konmari book came out, our apartment looked like 10 pounds of shit in a 5 pound bag. I’m not even entirely done with the method yet, but I got rid of so much stuff that our place is consistently tidier (and easier to clean) than it ever was before. Before decluttering, I…

Yeah, I have a few things I dry on a drying rack, but I also do my laundry at a laundromat, and live in a small apartment, and I am just not going to drip dry every item I own. I think I have a large tolerance for wrinkled clothes, because I almost never use my iron, but I don’t notice my clothes being particularly…

Your ideas are intriguing to me and I wish to subscribe to your newsletter.

Yeah, I know America’s Most Wanted, and I remember John Walsh (though it took me a minute to disambiguate the name from the dad in 90210 (Jim Walsh)), and I even knew something happened to John Walsh’s son, but I had never heard any of the details of the case.

That was my assumption.

I assumed it was some restaurant that serves chicken wings, and I obviously chose getting a raise. Then I read the Julianne’s description, and felt even better about getting a raise.

I never put it together before either, but seems to be.

People really need to use the word semiannual. Biannual causes way too much confusion.

I hate shopping online because I know myself, and I know I will never, ever, return something that doesn’t fit through the mail. It is late March, and I haven’t sent my sister’s holiday presents yet.
