Tylenol is good for fever, but not pain— Advil is good for pain, but not fever! At least that’s my rule. My last bout with the cold virus confirmed it for me again.

Lucky you. Even at my most active, I still ended up with one day of the Shitty Feels every month. Nothing worse than having them hit about 15 miles into a bike ride. For some people exercise works, for others, nothing but a megadose of Advil will bring things to a dull ache. Seriously - I once was on the hunt for a…

 Excedrin Migraine was preceded by the disastrous “Excedrin Boner Magic” brand.

This isn’t about cramps (though I am having them right now and self medicating with a 99cent brownie from 7/11) but Madeleine, can I please get ungrayed? I have been around for over 4 years now, I don’t engage with trolls and try to be a respectful commenter. Thank you!

I got a major ulcer from consistently taking too much advil for too many years to treat my intense cramps. i don’t have a great alternative, but just FYI

That right there is a good partnership. Taxi service for a drunk spouse is one of the things that makes for good morning after conversation.

Same. My husband came in last night slurring because he had gone with one of his besties to a gay bar (we are gay men.) He went with my blessing. An evening with no TV blaring and no sudden home improvement inspirations is a rare treat indeed. And if we can’t trust each other after all these many years we might as…

mr. biscuit has band rehearsal every Tuesday. I refer to my resulting time at home alone as Biscuit Time. He gets to make music, I get to have Netflix and wine on the couch with the cats and my guitar and without him playing the trumpet in our apartment. Even people who really love each other need time alone. 

Bahahaha right? I swear my husband did almost the exact same dance in a Karaoke place a couple weeks ago at his best friend’ birthday after a few too many shots. He also sang “Kiss From a Rose” lucky for him divorce sounds complicated and expensive. JK I love him, but it was pretty bad. lol

I don’t understand this concept that wives must be angry about their husbands going out. It looked to me like he was having fun and playing around. It’s not like he was grinding up on somebody. I may be married but that doesn’t mean my husband and I don’t spend time apart with friends. My guess is Kate gives 0 fucks.…

The only Tavi I know.

“We are partnering with a few creative influencers, like Tavi, who are great fits for our residential buildings,”

This is the first time I’ve ever heard of this person.

My favorite cat hero of all time!

For some reason, Haribo gummies found in America are hard. But they aren’t supposed to be! In Germany, they are soft and delicious.

Preach!

Always thought that until my aunt brought me some fresh packs of Haribo Gold Bears home from one of her Germany trips. Those were so beautifully soft and wonderfully tasty. At that point, I figured that the U.S. just got a different recipe... until I found a local store that actually seemed to actually get them…

BROOOO! Kasugai for lyfeee! I will eat an entire bag of yuzu gummies and not even feel bad about it.

If I want slightly gummy sugar bombs, I go for Swedish Fish every time. Red ones only. I am a traditionalist.

I prefer them BECAUSE of their slightly firmer texture. Other more gooey gummis just feel too squishy.
