I have threatened to do this with jury service. I was a single mom, working full time and had no-one to pick up my child after school. I told them I could not afford to pay someone and they still made me come. I told them I would bring my child, and they told me they would arrest me and put my child in social…

I thought only farmers ate dinner at 6 PM. That's what I tell my husband when he whines about how late dinner is.

This is the NYC version of a bad Yelp review.

I don't know why, but Drake almost always seems to wear a 'breaking up speech' look on his face.

Funny, I thought the Salvation Army, Savers/Value Village, and Goodwill were the biggest retailers of Vinyl.

This was lovely. But it made me think of those people that always have to top your announcements or stories. You come out to someone, they tell you they've already been gay.

I have a friend who maintains that we ARE ourselves only during PMS, and before we get our first period, and after menopause. All the rest of the time, we're drugged into submission by our hormones, making us nice and pliable and agreeable for the rest of the world (men and children, mostly) to take advantage of. I…

i get horribly depressed

Yes, it's 'brooch', a noun, referring to a piece of jewellery (which also has a different spelling in US English), as opposed to 'broach', a verb, meaning to open something (anything from an object to a conversation e.g. 'I broached the subject'). I'm a professional proofreader. I wish you guys would employ…

If they do not release a line of clothes under her name called "North by North West," it will be the world's most shameful missed opportunity.

Hmm, I still believe the waitress.

I hate earrings on babies.

Bless your heart, you honestly don't get it do you? This isn't a white trash, middle eastern, Indian and whomever else you mentioned issue! Are any of those other ethnic groups being killed like dogs in the street?
