I don’t get why it’s either or. How about a balanced diet of protein to carbs? Then you aren’t getting off smells either freaking way.

I feel like walking in those sneakers could seriously fuck up your hips and back. What is with all the heel? It looks like you would have to walk using your toes and balls of feet and not be able to have a normal heel-toe stride.

Before the article even loaded I literally asked out-loud “Why would it be asymmetrical? Then I saw the big-ass RAM badge dead center on the tailgate and went “Ohhhhhh. That’s why.”

In some cases it really depends on where you live. Some small towns pay all their bills with traffic fines, and jack them way up as a result. These are often times the same towns that have 35/25 mph thru the main strip, with less than a mile of warning where it goes down from 55. They’d station a car at each end and…

I hadn’t even heard of the Wisconsin Synod! We moved from the midwest to the southeast when I was young, where the Baptists have the lock on the weird conservative styles of religion. Lutherans are not a majority and most are much more soft Catholic Lite, instead of No Dancing Here conservatism. What you describe is…

Me too. Even my parents are; when they moved in 2001 from SC to NC, they decided to switch to the Episcopal church. Technically I’m registered as an Episcopalian, because when the churches transferred records, they accidentally transferred mine and my brother’s instead of our parents. When my mom called, I told her…

OMG what? That’s like some Footloose shit! 

Some flavors of Lutheran- i.e. not Missouri Synod.

THIS. SO MUCH THIS.

That’s not entirely true. I work full time as a picture framer at Michaels, which is technically a retail job, and I am most certainly am paid hourly, not salary. Full time hourly positions get paid holidays on Christmas, New Year’s Day, and I think Thanksgiving and Easter, but maybe just Thanksgiving. If you work…

They are doing more NOW, but really what’s been driving the spread of such stories is the rise of podcasting, which competes with NPR. Most all of the stories about women’s sexual and reproductive health I hear on my NPR One app are from outside programs or programs that have been produced in association with, but not…

What in the world is going on with that front end? That’s... too much grille. That’s like someone accidentally clicked the mouse twice in Photoshop and didn’t know how to use the Undo button. That’s... Ugh, Imagine that in Chrome. It’s only made slightly better by the all-over satin black.

I’m sorry, I know this article is about whiskey stones, but I just can’t get over the link to the $80 scrunchie. I mean, what? Even the most buttery leather would not be $80 in scrunchie form, and looking at that picture, it looks like the cheapest form of patent leather in a hideous, sickly shade of lavender that…

I’ve been trying to reply to this for 15 minutes but Kinja gonna Kinja and every time I pressed “reply” it would reload the whole page.

Bingo.

This won’t apply to everyone, but me and my husband had been going thru infertility treatments, and the worst advice everyone loves to give is “Just relax! It will happen when you least expect it!” No, Karen, it won’t. I don’t ovulate without medical help. Ovulation requires pills and shots and transvaginal…

I heard on a podcast of an NBC show a few nights back that she wasn’t pleading to be a spy, and that “foreign agent” in this case is more akin to a foreign lobbyist. She wasn’t trying to spy, but gain favor. I don’t know how true that is, but that was how they explained why she wasn’t being charged as a spy,…

The cognitive dissonance needed to be a gay man married to a gay man and then write that gays should not get to be married or have children is stunning. Like, live your convictions, man. You don’t get to be a married gay man and tell other gay people that they don’t get to have what you have. That’s douchey in the…

Unless you are allergic to citrus, then breaking with tradition and putting a couple fresh Pink Lady apples in the stocking will super duper suffice. Bang on about the socks though. Socks are the best gift.
