See, I breastfed both of my kids, one for 16 months and one for 4 months (and let the record reflect that HE was the quitter, not me!) and never had any major issues. Sure there was the occasional bite or whatever, but never anything brutal. I feel for women who go through such a hard time. I was happy it turned…

I'm late to the party, but I needed to say that in my 30+ years of having a period, I had never heard the phrase "vampire tea bags" before. So kudos! That's awesome!

You're an asshole. A sadly misinformed asshole, but an asshole nonetheless.

As someone who works for an agency assisting victims of domestic violence, both male and female, let me say that you are woefully misinformed, and I hope you never become a victim.

Thanks for this. At (almost) 42, I am thisclose to throwing my remaining fucks out the window.

Dodai, thank you for writing this. It's something that's very difficult for a lot of people to understand. I work for an agency supporting victims of relationship violence and sexual assault. We see this all the time, and have to realize that everything needs to be the victim's choice, not ours, even though we…

Not particularly related to the meat of the article, but I did want to thank you for saying "strangle" instead of "choke." I work for an agency that helps victims of domestic violence, and the distinction between those two words is important, both legally and in terms of getting people to think about the seriousness…

Apologies if this has been noted/discussed elsewhere in the thread, or if it's a longstanding tradition of which I am unaware, but I wanted to say I <3 that this was posted at 4:20. Heh.

WOW....Creepy!! Thanks for that!

While I agree on the people and the beauty of the area, I'd describe Gburg as more of a tourist town than a college town, but that's mainly in the nice-weather months. I live only a few miles away and I avoid Gettysburg like the plague during the summer.

Hell, I only moved to Gburg from Erie, which is a smallish city and it was a culture shock for me. This whole area has a very Southern vibe to me.

I've worked with NILMDTS. The whole point is that a pro or semi-pro photographer takes the pics and then also gives the rights to the parents for personal use such as sharing online. It's a charitable service.

LOVE LOVE LOVE that movie.

Does your mom have room for another kid? :-D

Right?!? Cretins.

For the love of Christ. 2 co-workers have walked through my area in the past 5 minutes. To both of them, I said "Maurice Sendak died. :-( " And neither of them knew who he was. I'm surrounded by idiots. FML.

Absolutely they can. That isn't even a question. If a black person were to beat a white person simply because they were white and that black person hates white people, then yeah, that would be a hate crime. You can't justify that as an expression of all the wrongs done to blacks by our society.

I agree with you.....and I could totally see my Type-A, detail-oriented boyfriend doing something similar lol
