I can see the appeal, given that the most common representation of labor in movies and TV is that it's an endless, screaming nightmarefest of pain unlike anything you've ever experienced EVER! Compared to the idea of being all numbed up from the neck down and then magically handed a baby over a curtain? Even if…

I think it's absolutely fair to say that. The Obamas are both fit but are quite obviously intellectually curious people and have worked very hard to be educated citizens of the world. This is demonstrably untrue of Sarah Palin. She pretty clearly values the physical over the mental.

I also love that her apartment is decorated with gigantic matted photographs of herself and her boyfriend.

What a coincidence— reading about this has suddenly caused my eyes to get squinty, too!

Good call on the prologue theme. Hearing that makes me wish I could watch BSG from the beginning for the first time all over again, with no idea of what would come next. Oh the thrill of it all!

You mean 'their LoVe'!

Yup. This does no one any favors. Sigh.

Agreed. I avoided it for so long— "High school detective? Excuse me, I am a very grown up lady." But I was wrong! The only thing that kills me is the DVD/Netflix version has different music, which I found so distracting, since Rob Thomas's (/whatever music director's) excellent picks had to be changed out for the most…

Loooogaannnnn! Aiiieeeeeeee! Here, take my panties— just take them!

I love these. They really are amazing and worth every penny. Another good, cheaper option is moleskin. It's not quite as good at cushioning existing blisters, but it sticks and pads much better than bandaids and is especially good for wrapping heels and toes in anticipation of blisters-to-come.

As unpleasant as the article itself was, I find the tone of many of the comments to be a bit disturbing. Please don't turn this into a "I knew it! Women are all shallow bitches! Like on Jezebel!" moment. This is just one woman's opinion. I don't want to defend her actions at all— I think it was incredibly rude and…

Too. Many. Legs.

Yay! And boo! I don't go anywhere in my house anymore without shoes on, out of fear. My Korean mother would be horrified.

Hahaha, he's totally The Best.

I'm streaming season 3 of Breaking Bad on my laptop while the streamin's good (reeally hoping the hurricane is weak enough to leave my internet service uninterrupted while still having the power to drown all the giant house centipedes who keep coming out of my walls). Jesse just got beat up by Hank, which makes me…

Whaaaaat?? All those Cracked articles about how nightmarish Australia is, but this, this is what really brings it home for me. Why keep pancakes and bacon apart when they so obviously belong together? Do you hate love, Australia? Or maybe you've never truly known love. This morning, I just put the bacon in my pancakes…
