Does a 5+ age gap skeeve you out for just 17 year olds, or for any age? Or does the age gap for you scale up with age? It is hard for me to imagine anyone being skeeved out by a 30 year old dating a 40 year old, for instance, or a 50 year old dating a 65 year old. (I’m curious because my husband and I met when I was…

I agree that the basic idea of a vending machine or automat could be put to good use. But these guys aren’t going to be the ones to do it.

Thing is, it seems like their pitch would make food deserts worse, because they only stock non-perishables.

Do you even math, bro? 1 or 2 bodega clerks per store. Are you under the impression that the 10 people you have described are going to be servicing only one vending machine?

Eliminating competition and removing human interaction will definitely make things cheaper and safer, right? My corner store is a place open late with humans I recognize who can assist if I am in trouble.

“did surveys in the Latin American community to understand if they felt the name was a misappropriation of that term or had negative connotations, and 97% said ‘no.’”

“Vampires (3) are excellent spokespeople for skincare, but drinking blood as a means of sustenance probably won’t go over with the wellness crowd.”

So this is what I have never understood- is Accutane the kind of medication you do for a set period of time and then you are done with it, or is it the type of medication you go on for life? There’s a difference between lifelong abstinence and 3 or 12 months of abstinence. When you go off of it, does your acne just…

I have fairly clear skin anyway, but I have realized now that I am pregnant that the pregnancy “glow” is caused by not having chin breakouts once a month now that I’m not ovulating.

That is how I stay normal. It is finally time to do laundry when the pile of dirty close and the pile of clean clothes are too intermingled to tell what goes where, and you hope a cycle through the wash will kill any spiders that have taken up residence.

Doing your own laundry when you don’t have to is the most Hollywood thing I have ever heard of. That is the first thing a normal person will offload as soon as they have the means.

I can tell you in the actual clip he liked, it is not even remotely obvious what the relationship between those involved is. Everyone appears to be the same age. The Twitterverse is what alerted me to the genre.

I just thought, “mean white lady.” She just looks like she lives to be a hateful shit to people, and when she randomly gets a warm feeling about anyone, the sensation is physically painful to her until she can find something to be hateful about.

I wore very minimal/natural-looking makeup for years, partially for laziness, but mostly because I had the impression too much would intimidate men, who were constantly going on and on about not liking the overly made-up look. Recently, as a pregnant and married lady, I realized that my own personal aesthetic runs to…

Truly. I still generally like Banana Republic stuff for the office, but GAP stuff is mostly like, “What if Old Navy clothes were more expensive and less flattering?”

Yep. I’m definitely the dumb one here, and not the person who strapped a sleeping bag to a model and dangled sweatshirt sleeves from her head. And definitely not the person who is impressed by that “avant-garde designer.”

One only has to look at bridal lines to see this- underweight models are often still used in the photos, but they swim in the dresses, and you can see where they have been clothespinned back here and there, because they were designed for, and look better on, women who are not underweight.

Apparently it would ruin the line of this...dress...?...:

I had never heard of Rick Owens, but it doesn’t seem like it would be any more difficult to tie this sleeping bag to a size 16 than a size 0.

I had to sign something similar when I worked as a dishwasher for an Italian restaurant. The secret to their house wine was that it was boxes of Franzia. I never cooked there, but the secret to their fettuccine (and every other dish) appeared to be “far too much salt.”
