Isn't it most likely that the restaurant does not offer banana peppers on pizza if they are not listed on the menu?

It all got a little clearer when I sobered up enough at least to see double rather than quintuple.

Um, is no one going to be honest about the fact that that child cannot be understood whatsoever?

Calmly explain to them at a moment devoid of any type of family drama or stress and untainted by any religious considerations. Tell them that you no longer have faith, it causes you pain to attend services and pretend, and that you won't be going any more. Keep repeating in the face of their objections, there isn't

Christie is advertising the fact that he would have eagerly joined the Red Guards.

Was Reinaldo Nehemiah's nickname really "Skeets"?

I've never been pregnant, but is this a feminist argument? Is pregnancy really such a total state that the responsibility for the relationship passes entirely to the man? It just sounds like so much of that conservative bullshit we kept hearing in the birth control coverage arguments about women being unable to

Advice to Jordan is bullshit. You've got to learn an instrument and join a band to get out of that rut. It will get your mind off the girl while simultaneously drawing other girls to you like ... teenage girls to guitar players. Playing video games will get your mind off it, but it will also give you man boobs and

One little girl yells out, "Longneck," and turns and smiles at her good

Wow, super tough situation, I really don't know what to say. I would try getting drunk-ish (not drunk) again around him when he is also having a few cocktails and just kind of see what happens. In that situation you can kiss him and if it doesn't work out just pawn it off and go on as usual in the future. One kiss

What does he say/do that makes you think otherwise sometimes?

Listen, I mean really focus. It is a good idea on its by giving you something else to focus on it will also distract you from your nervousness.

I'm a super introvert and would do #2, but what I've been telling myself in situations like this lately (because it's true) is that you can go do #1 for an hour, 2 hours, max, including travel time, and then come home and do #2. Not only do you get to do both, but #1 will feel much better after doing #1. You just
