In the sense that I appreciate a lot more about myself, it did! It was really interesting to see how I narrated my own life and which questions created detailed answers. I think the staring at my eyes in the mirror for 4 minutes was the hardest part because I kept wanting to brush my teeth or play with my hair.

Based on the cop's ignoring the cat, and trying to continue with what he was doing, my first thought was "Clearly, this man has or has had several cats in his life."

You jest, but we had a cop at the house before Christmas. There's been a string of thefts, and the hooligans (ruffians?) stole some of our mail. When the cop came in, our youngest cat LOST HIS TITS. He started rubbing against the cop, jumping around like a kangaroo, and attacking the blinds. He kept stopping his…

"It's not wild chicken."

Pretty much every baby before about 1975 was born to a woman who drank and smoked. You have to really drink a lot to affect the health of the child in any significant way. Not sure exactly what smoking does except low birth weight, but everyone used to smoke. It's not ideal, of course.

Ya like in what house would that be convenient? "There ya go child we hate, sit at your bastard table so we don't have to look at you and live in constant disappointment"

I have no idea what I'm looking at here. A mirror? No. A table through a wall? No.

People like to bash IKEA because many products aren't solid wood, but a lot of the stuff you buy in dedicated furniture stores isn't solid wood either.

Cats would never do this to anyone— they just don't have the attention span. This is why I will marry my cat and live happily ever after.

I also wanted to mention Something's Gotta Give and how that movie was such a big deal because it blasted the whole problem with this double standard. Jack Nicholson hooking up with Amanda Peet was part of the "norm" in their world but the idea of Keanu Reeves lusting after Diane Keaton was so absurd that even her…

I believe it was Tina Fey who said: "Helen Mirren is not proof that there are parts for older women, Helen Mirren is proof that there are parts for Helen Mirren."

If you are trying to pretend that you're still the young buck when you're my age, it just doesn't work.

It's not. Fuck those men who are perfectly happy to be supported by women's tax dollars and protected by female soldiers but are too good to sit next to them on the bus.

It seems like El Al's issue could be easily solved with a clear-cut policy. "Oh, you're unwilling to fly in the seat you paid a ticket for, sir? Are you sure? Okay, very well, your ticket is cancelled. There will be no refund."

THAT WHY GROG USE.

I've been pushing back against this manspreading shit for over a decade and I am sooooo happy to see that it's a mainstream issue and people are making blogs about it and talking about it. One time a guy was fake sleeping so he didn't have to move his bag from the inside seat next to him. I asked him twice to move his…

What's bizarre to me is how a lot of men don't seem to ever even think about how much space they take up. As a woman, that's on your mind everywhere you sit, every time. I don't know what it would be like to have never even thought of that before.
