I liked My Big Fat Greek Wedding when it came out, but I don’t think I’ll be seeing this one. I watched My Life in Ruins a few years ago, and my God, that was awful. I really don’t mind cheesy romantic comedies, but it’s sort of appalling how terrible almost all of them have been in the last decade. I don’t think I…

That’s one reason I like Wuthering Heights better. There’s no pretending that the awful men are great - they’re just terrible.

That Rainbow Brite costume is something else.

I think the point is that teachers have to have a BA PLUS post-grad work and even they can’t afford to live where they work. It's proof of how going to college and getting a good job really isn't enough anymore.

This article is very timely. I’m in school right now working on my teaching credential & masters (the plan is to be a school librarian). I’m from California and I know that the town I grew up in priced out many of the local teachers over two decades ago (and the ones who do live in town have rich spouses). My plan for…

The trick is that Fifty Shades got popular right when it was released, so anyone who wanted to read it had to buy it new and in hardback. It took a while for the public to discover how garbage it is, so everyone’s getting rid of their copies right now in droves.

Well, when a large part of your “look” comes from plastic surgery, it’s not that unusual for you to have a doppelganger running around...

According to Wikipedia, the actor who plays her boyfriend in this video is her cousin @__@ ew

Damn. This really is an early-2000s Britney Spears knockoff. Unfortunately, I don’t think we’re in for a 00s revival for about four more years. She should stick with the bubblegum retro thing she did for her first album - it obviously worked for her.

I’m somewhat like that too. I’ll never stop reading a book partway through. HOWEVER, I don’t usually feel compelled to read the sequels, so that’s good at least.

That reminds me of how I graduated high school ten years ago already :[

I also highly recommend it! It’s fascinating.

But only for about three years :/

Agreed about the book! It just wasn’t very good :[ And it made me mad because it’s so popular so I was expecting a lot *sigh*

I’m glad a lot has been changed. The book was awful. Great premise, but bad execution.

I’m excited for this! I read the first book with a lot of anticipation, but found it not well-written at all. The pacing was off, the target audience was badly defined (it read like a book for 11-year-olds, but featured a teen protagonist who thinks about sex, swears, etc.), and it weirdly veers into a standard “save…

Carpeting is gross anywhere in a house.

Lol. I think I did (half) watch that one. I don't remember anything about it though... I like to have late night shows on in the background when I'm doing chores or browsing the Internet - I feel bad when I don't pay attention to scripted shows.

A whole half-hour (or, ya know, 22 minutes) of this sounds so boring

It’s crazy how everyone keeps moving the goalposts for this woman. When we first heard about the story people said, “She’s so selfish! Why doesn’t she just adopt?” Then we find out that she has adopted children, and they said, “She’s a terrible person to have a biological child when she already has three adopted…
