Yeah, Rihanna? Well I once got a free sample of a new kind of panty liner in my mailbox and I was like "I am totally going to Tweet about this" and I did and everyone was like "whoa you are so lucky" and I was like "totally". So there.

Maybe not. But people manage to get off on erotic fiction or animated porn or soft core porn. No one's going to die if we don't have real people making porn. People apparently will die if we do have porn as things stand right now.

Brilliant! And they won't be able to tell I've done that?
Thank you!

Oh, I firmly maintain that the "Oh look another cute kitty! Oh look this cat thinks it's a person. Oh look this kitty is suckling it's kittens [gak!]" people are worse than the baby picture people.

Could there please be a function where you can unilaterally unfriend someone? Like, you still see my updates but I don't see yours. That way we can discreetly unfriend each other without the other person noticing, thus avoid any awkwardness at family gatherings. (I'm looking at you, Lynne. NO I DON'T WANT TO SIGN YOUR…

Oh I would love to do hobbies and stuff full time. But while I've been a SAHM I've been lucky if I've been able to take a dump by myself, so I think brewing and meat smoking might be more of a retirement dream.

That bit really got me. ARE YOU KIDDING ME? Grow up you pampered babies!

Oh, "go suck on an egg" or something to that effect is one I've heard here. No, the one I meant was "don't teach your grandmother to suck eggs" - which means don't try to tell an expert how to do the basics - which (from the little research I've done while I should have been getting the kids to bed) apparently comes…

So do I! I used to know most of the movie by heart and it is so engrained into my brain that certain words and phrases are inextricably tied up with it - Eskimo - obviously - but also "boning" - someone talks about boning a fish and all is an hear is "boning away on the neighbours' swing set" or "eagle" - "you wanna…

I think you sound great just how you are, and if we didn't live a 20-hour plane ride away from each other, I would suggest we stayed in and baked something complicated with layers (salted caramel, chocolate, biscuit base, perhaps? Yes! Why not?) and watched Heathers for the millionth time or something.
I rarely wear…

Congratulations! I started a new job and found out I was pregnant when I'd been there exactly one week! Most people were happy for me because - you know - they weren't arseholes. But some people were obviously very put out the whole thing - my (female) boss's boss sort of sighed and said "well, if [your male immediate…

I'm not at all sure about the nipples on mannequins thing. Most women don't deliberately go for the visible nipples look, but prominently-nippled mannequins seem to have made a big comeback recently. Maybe we want to see how the clothes perform in the cold?

Unless your university works differently from mine, I wouldn't expect that you need to get to a certain page limit to feel like you're done. If it takes, say, 8 pages to make your argument, stretching it out to 12 could only be a bad thing. I'd check with your supervisor, but when I was marking university papers I…

Rape a virgin. Steal a bunch of stuff.

Ummm.... she has just escaped from an abusive relationship and her ex-employees and ex-husband are trying to destroy her and the media is hounding her constantly and she was about to walk into court and admit to using illegal drugs and talk about the trauma of the death of her first husband and the abuse at the hands…

Oh! So your point is that women are lazy, stupid whiners AND that misogyny isn't real. I wish I had a bigger, more logical brain so I could understand that but you see women are - oh! I have split ends! I must buy some better shampoo. Some shampoo that understands me as a woman..... I'm sorry, what were we talking…

I'm sorry, I thought your point was that men are hurt by the patriarchy too, not that companies use ads to try to get people to buy things. How insightful.

I'm not going to argue that Jez is always consistent. But I thought the praise was for her poise and dignity, not because she looks gorgeous (which btw, she does).

Actually I think it occurs to pretty much everyone. That's why feminists (including the ones on this website) frequently object to men and boys being told they can't be weak or stay at home with kids or carry a handbag or cry or talk about their feelings or not want sex or......

I'm tempted to create multiple burner accounts just so I can star this more times.
