This is similar to a situation I had a week ago, but the difference is that I am not an asshole. I had a four hour fight recently, because, holidays. I had a window seat next to two larger people that were occupying the aisle and middle seats (these planes are three seats/side) and I felt terrible. You could tell the…

If you think about all that the fetus has endured with the doctors to trying to save its mom, it's probably in rough shape. They kick-started the woman's heart, and she's lost a lot of oxygen and both these things will affect the fetus. I'm not a doctor or anything, but I'm pretty sure oxygen loss in the brain is how…

"(but then who will I talk to at parties?!)"

Same! I am forever the person on the couch having an in-depth conversation with the animal of the house. "Hello, sweet prince! How was your day?"

Never even considered this point. Thank you for this!

The visual produced by "ate out of a microwave" just made my entire day.

Also from Saskatchewan! We do the Chinese Christmas exchange every year (everyone brings a gift, then opens a random gift, then steals gifts from each other.) The gift I opened up was a CANADA toque that was three sizes too big and a flashlight set. My dad promptly stole the gift from me because, safety, duh. Haha.

Hiring a retoucher is INCREDIBLY pricey. It's not saving money anywhere, it's just shuffling it around. They may require less work from a make-up artist or pay them less and distribute those funds to a bomb ass retoucher.

In terms of Canadian brands, Lululemon needs to take a few lessons from how West Jet does their PR.

The hands are what I'm most shocked by! They literally liposunctioned her HANDS.

I actually had to compare some studies in the similar vein to this for a sociology class. The results:
Women were turned off by images that displayed recreational, self-indulgent, or no-strings-attached sex. Big surprise! This works much better with men.
What they really liked was when sex was framed in the context of…

Sociology isn't based on philosophy and reason…
Extensive studies are conducted, using two types of research methods:
Qualitative -Surveys, numbers, lots of data really darn quick
Quantitative -In-depth. Sociologists speak to several different individuals within a social group and interview them to get less…

Wine is always different!
I literally refused to go to any store all day. I just window-shopped online and talked myself out of buying anything. Much more logical/less impulsive to do discount shopping that way :)

The entire Black Friday thing made me about a million times sadder when I realized that for a big number of low-income people, this might be their only way of affording to buy their kids gifts. So then it becomes a do-or-die situation where the poorest people in America are literally duking it out so they can have…

Could not agree more! Especially when I'm buying online.
