As one of seven children (all from the same two parents, FWIW) I gotta say, big families aren’t inherently a bad thing! Obviously I’m biased, but I think we’ve all grown into reasonably loving, empathetic and contributing members of society. It was a little chaotic growing up, but I wouldn’t trade my ginormous fam for…

Tall, lanky guys manically dancing is one of my favorite sights to behold. My husband has the same build and the same ridiculous energy on the dance floor and oh, how I laugh. He lives for wedding receptions.

You are the best.. Thank you so much! This is all really helpful and I love having concrete ideas to try. Those families are lucky to have you:)

That’s great! I’m sure you’re a wonderful parent. I’ve got a toddler and I’m expecting my second child in November. I’m excited but also a bit apprehensive about having two. Congrats on raising four.. Quite an achievement!

Ohhh I remember that! Hahaha.. Ok that’s pretty great.

Please educate me. How does one “act like a mom”? And out of curiosity, how many kids do you have?

Hahaha, totally selfless. Never change, Kim?

Is Kim joking with that “picture of us” line, or is that really her idea of taking a picture with a friend? Either way, I LOL’d.

She’s FLAM.

I felt real, genuine happiness for you just reading this. FCing like a champ!

Leisurely dinners with wine and an early bedtime should be called FC: Feeling Childless. It only happens when I pay for a sitter.

Hahaha, that is a very apt comparison. My day of FLAM was so fucking bananas that I had to calm myself before leaving a comment here, so as not to rage.

Clearly I’ve been FLAM all wrong. I FLAM when it’s 10pm and the sink is full of dirty dishes and my child keeps waking up for no reason and I haven’t showered all day and all I want to do is watch Netflix and sleep but I know I have to prep for the next morning when THE MADNESS WILL START ALL OVER AGAIN.

This is amazing and super inspiring, thank you!! I’ve got a routine written out and posted where I can see it, but never thought about putting it into picture form for her. I think she’d love that! Timers are another thing I hadn’t thought of, and I think would totally work because she understands that timer sound =…

I’m not sure what you mean. Would you mind elaborating?

Um.. Would you mind sharing tips for getting routines in place? Asking for a friend*

Oh but Axe is woke now! They even hired Jezebel’s sweetheart Matt McGorry as a spokesperson. It’s a totally genuine change of heart and not at all a marketing strategy.

So, in this reversed gender scenario, had McCarthy made the exact same comeback, would you consider it whiney and pathetic?

Something tells me Melissa would have landed a devastating come-back. Because something tells me she got a lot of that shit growing up, and has a huge mental repository of testicle-shredding one-liners. So yeah we’d be discussing it, but we’d be talking about how Melissa totally pwned that French guy.

“Just don’t fucking punch people.”
