She’s pretty great. I once gave myself a bald spot with an at home straightener because I lost my mind and she was so awesome. Especially when I called her crying and she kept making suggestions of things we could try and I kept sobbing that I didn’t want a weave or to cut my hair differently or to do whatever; I…

t In high school my best friend bleached hers so much that eventually it turned white and started just breaking off like crazy. She ended up having to cut it extremely short and just wait for it to grow out. She tried dying it back to a light brown, but her hair was so dry it just sucked up the dye before it could…

My prom dress was really, really similar to that pink dress Gwyneth Paltrow wore to the Oscars (Shakespeare in Love, era, maybe? Can’t remember). Anyway. It was definitely of it’s time. My mother later had it SHORTENED, so convinced was she that I would have any occasion to need that dress again, but tea length.…

This is true. I swear Travis Barker has been 45 for the last 2 decades. Also, many people still like music they loved as teens, so I’m not discounting that he can last. I just find it curious that at least 2 of his fans seem to think that he’s always going to be young. Or that it would be creepy if he was still doing…

I don’t know why but they all look like the models that used to appear in Abercrombie ads/bags/stores in the 90s. Super attractive, yes, models, yes. But I don’t think anyone considered those kids supermodels. (I mean, this issue has literally zero effect on my life. If people want to call them supermodels, whatever,…

I think there was a quote about if he’s ever not a teen anymore, and I’m like...uh. Am I missing some finer nuances here? Because he’s 19. If we stretch the definition of teen to 20, and if we decide that it’s not weird to write teen music in your early 20s, okay, but still. He’s definitely not going to be a teen…

Okay, I really only heard the term when Fetty Wap’s “Trap Queen” was a thing and I’m still not sure what it means except I thought it referred to drug dealing in some way? Are we not supposed to say it? (I mean, I cannot think of a time I have ever said it in any context aside from “Trap Queen”, but).

Matchbox 20 and Bush are probably the two I’m most embarrassed about. I can at least articulate what appealed to me about Matchbox 20 (really only one specific album), but I’m pretty sure my main justification for Bush was “Gavin Rossdale is really hot and deep”. I’m cringing as I type that.

Listen, as a person who thought Bush was an awesome band back in the day I really don’t feel it’s my place to judge anyone’s taste in music. And honestly. I don’t hate Lil Yachty. I don’t generally advertise it because it makes me feel like I’m trying too hard to be young, but honestly, some of it really is just fun.

Sometimes an animal needs special care that people don’t realize beforehand. She found the dog someone to give it the proper care that it obviously needs. There are a lot of things to not like about Lena Dunham, but this isn’t one of them. This makes it sound like she abandoned the dog on the side of the road or…

This makes me feel like less of a terrible parent. I keep saying we should start eating dinner with our almost 2 year old, but A. she still eats really early. Like we get home at 5:30, she usually eats at 6. Her meals are quick and easy to put together and sometimes consist of the previous nights leftovers or are…

Nah. This occurred after a rap concert. That will explain it as far as Asa is concerned. You can tell from the quote above he’s already explaining that it must be related to the “drive-bys” we’ve been having.

RDJ is one of those dudes who has definitely gotten kind of weird and I think he’s a conservative, but...I always thought he was hotter than Pitt. I think he is CURRENTLY hotter than Pitt (physically speaking) so the whole “he was probably kind of handsome in his time” thing is weird to me. I’m prepared to be told how…

I think in a situation with twins I would feel differently about it? Maybe? Because it’s simultaneous, so mom and dad both have a person named after them at the same time (I don’t know, I haven’t really given this a ton of thought). And because I think I vaguely recall that Blue Ivy was somehow meaningful to both of…

I read an article about a rumor that the twins are a boy and a girl and their names are Sean and Bea, a thing which seems relatively boring to me, but apparently people have really strong feelings about these completely hypothetical names (apparently people are mad about them potentially naming their children after…

Makes sense. His first wife was...can’t think of a good word. She was very sweet and something of a people pleaser and very self effacing. Non-confrontational. My mother is a kind person, but not a sweet one. She’s much more confrontational and very likely to tell you that she hates what you’re doing - which in his…

Sorry you went through that as well. I almost think my dad’s was the opposite. My mother would never hit anyone, but she would fight back verbally which apparently was all the excuse he needed to hit her. My mother has never been particularly submissive (which is also not to say that she deserved to be hit, but she…

My dad was abusive to my mom, but not to the woman he was married to before her and not to the woman he is married to now. He quit drinking when she asked him to, and I think it’s a sign of being old and tired because both previous wives had asked him to stop drinking and he didn’t (should note that he is not an…

I also just ended up with an accidental lob to bob hair cut. I hated it at first because I thought I looked like Velma Dinkley, but after a few days consideration and styling it myself at home...I might like it? It’s been interesting. My mom LOVES it. My friends claim to love it. My husband does not love it…

My mom used to tell me about the orange juice cans when I would complain about sleeping in those foam curlers that were used to routinely torture children in the 80s (I concede that sleeping in those cans would have been way worse, but my point still stands: I have naturally curly hair, why was I made to wear…
