@lodown (is waiting for MizJenkins): I think teeny skirts are fine in ice-skating. (Actually, most national/international competitions require the skirt be a certain length.) The teeny skirt is just there for "modesty." Most competitive ice-skaters would be just as happy in a leotard like a gymnast or ballet dancer…

@girlwithapen: It is! I'm not usually attracted to her either, but I love this photo.

@girlwithapen:

Good-bye Hortense!

@Edie Spencer: My mom - a white woman - took six months to convince a doctor to x-ray her foot. She'd been walking on it broken so long that it healed strangely and she's been in PT off and on. I can't imagine how much harder it is for a woman of color to get her complaints taken seriously.

I recommend L’Oreal’s Skin Genesis Micro-Smoothing Wet Cleansing Towelettes for overnight stays. They remove make-up, fight acne, and moisturize. With one product, you can look clean and fresh in the morning. (Though a touch of lipgloss won't go amiss.)

@ytuhermanotambien: I find it depends on the size of the airport. Somewhere big wants to get people through quickly. Smaller places tend to look more closely at you because there isn't much else to do.

Scrub away the skank by scrubbing with the stank.

Almost all the Starbucks I've been in have gender-neutral bathrooms. There were a couple that had multi-stall set-ups, but mostly gender-neutral. Clean, too, which I appreciate.

@angelina jolie-laide is a mavericky bish AGAIN: Glad someone already pointed this out.

@JoJett is back!: Thanks for posting facts. I don't hunt myself, but I do buy processed deer meat when I'm in the right place at the right time.

@Davio: To add to the list of children's shows with bigger innuendos: Animaniacs.

@Rob Heath: Well, the second novel of The Strain trilogy was released last week. There you go.

@amygdala: Haagen daz still has short ingredient lists, but it is a super premium ice cream . . . so not exactly "wholesome ingredients."

@honorabright: My young cousins (four and two, I believe) attended our great-grandmother's funeral. I watched them during the service, their parents paid their respects and took them out, then I got up and paid mine. All of the family bonding experience, none of the corpse viewing.

@Zulkey: Sexy Lady Who Holds Her Giant Bowl of Chocolate Sadly Because the Kiddies Never Ring Her Doorbell and She Likes Seeing Their Costumes and Who Then Cheers Up By Eating Said Giant Bowl of Chocolate.

@Sev: I had a number of crushes on animated characters too. I knew they weren't real, just thought they were the kind of person I'd like to be with.

@alcatrazzzed: I meant to promote and my clicking finger went crazy.

@palebluepixie: Most people don't do it as often as they should (including me), but I do a wash every seven-ten wears. Use common sense though. If you've gotten really sweaty or spilled something on it, wash it sooner.
