This is such crap. Why don't the girls buy girly superhero merchandise? Because there ISN'T ANY GIRLY SUPERHERO MERCHANDISE!
My girls are both getting spiderMAN costumes for Christmas. The little girl next door already has one. At playgroup the girls dress as male superheroes and the fairy costumes gather dust. I would…

I wouldn't mind the outfit if she were rocking it; instead she looks embarrassed to be wearing it.
(Either that or she has just farted and wants to move off down that red carpet ASAP and blame it on the next celebrity)

I can't see this as one of the benefits. I am still scarred from sitting around my friend's breakfast table and her (Anglican minister) father saying "KapaiJJ, would you like to say grace?" prompting the whole family to turn and look at me with my mouth already chock full of toast.

I think we are wrong. As another commenter said her brother is the Prime Minister. Was their sister his dead wife or something? Is that what I am thinking of?

Gah! I think you are right. Ok I really need to re-watch it. And dammit, I am going to enjoy it whether Lindy wants me to or not!

They are brother and sister. I'm sure it was explained because I am SURE it is true - but not sure enough that I don't have to go watch it again and check.

You've thought about this a lot, haven't you?
Oh dear, some of my religious upbringing is taking on a creepy new meaning. Eg "Lord, I am not worthy to receive you...." Gak!

You didn't watch or read the Twilight series because you have eyes and ears? I like you Laura, but the intellectual snobbery of Jezebel really gets on my tits at times.
Hundreds of millions of people enjoyed Twilight; I've read all the books and watched the movies and I enjoyed them. I probably read about 40 books a…

Her lips are smiling but her eyes are offering me a jar of apple pie.

Yes. That part is edited out of today's bibles, but it originally said:

I've always found antibacterial soaps silly. You want to get excessive bacteria off your skin; you don't actually have to kill it to do that. It is (literally) overkill.

What's your damage, Ten Earth Imps?

You'd better not shout, you'd better not cry
You'd better not pout, I'm telling you why
Climate change is coming to town!

So.... Oh lordy I am nervous to even ask this in case I am a dick for even thinking like this - I met a kid at a birthday party in the weekend. She was pretty clearly ethnically African, and she pointed out her brother, who looked like he was probably ethnically European, then I met her parents who looked European…

My husband has noticed this. Every time I see him vacuuming in the afternoon, I know he has designs on me for that evening.

I have seen Nigella and Oprah sit down together before. Nigella made these roasted potato things with little jagged cuts in them. Oprah asked her why she made the jagged cuts in them and she replied "it's so you can get more fat into your potatoes".

Does anyone else just see pendulous, multi-nippled breasts?

Exactly.

Bloody hell...

True but only slightly relevant story: my brother (a journalist) interviewed female Afghan drug smugglers. They fill syringes with heroin, melt the end with a lighter to seal them and then swallow dozens of them before getting onto a plane. Doesn't really bear thinking about, does it?
