I believe that is true. I also had friends who got engaged similarly through the LA Times, I believe.

Look, I ain't the certified genius behind countless panels of cubicle humor, but in my experience if you have to say "I am so (adjective)" out loud then that adjective most certainly does not apply to you.

How can you be loved if you're not lovable? That doesn't make sense to me. And I really doubt that Jennelle's mom had her copy of Roget's out to parse Dr. Drew's question. In my interpretation, he was asking her if she thought Jenelle worthy of love and she said "no." That's a tough thing to hear from your own mother.

I am not a parent but I always assumed the one thing every parent felt for their child was love - I mean, even as a biological imperative that makes sense. I think it's pretty harsh, no matter how poorly Jenelle behaves, that her mother doesn't believe she is able to be loved.

With Hobbes out - INJUSTICE! - my vote must go to dogs. Also, I spent the evening with two corgis. They'll know if I vote otherwise.

I would take any dog over any cat in the real world any day...but HOBBES is another story. He trumps all. Hobbes is hilarious. He is stripey. He is a loyal and smart friend with an interest in wearing Jams and smooching girls. Hobbes! Hobbes! Hobbes!

Sounds delicious! I am a firm believer in taste over shape.

What kind of pudding?

Well, then, shit needs to change. :)

I acknowledge all the good reasons to change one's name. Hell, I took on my mother's maiden name instead as a young woman. Which was her father's name so it's not like I avoided patriarchy.

Depression is a mind-fuck. Remind yourself that it is not reality - it is not some proof of your worth - this is your brain toying with you. Take it from someone in their 30's - you are so young! There is so much ahead of you! It can be hard to see it now. Which is why it's important to get help ASAP. Especially if…

Well, if you're really over it then being generous is a sign of that. But if it were me, I'd sooner put the stuff out on the curb. Or make her pay for it.

There's nothing wrong with applying for another job, especially when they are fully aware that they've cut your hours. Apply for other jobs, put them as a reference and see if the new place even calls to check. If you're worried about what they'll think or say, tell them you're just applying for supplemental part-time…

AND despite his membership in GROSS (Get Rid Of Slimy girlS) he is very concerned about smooching.

I said it at the beginning, I'll say it again - HOBBES WILL TAKE IT ALL. He'll wrap this shit up in his furry little paw. How could he not? He's cute plus smart plus funny plus loyal plus stripey.

I think it's also a reference to "Bad Santa." Which you might also be.

Hobbes is not just a mere fluffy tiger toy. He's bright and funny and caring and likes wearing Jams and getting smooches...if only my imaginary friends were so interesting...

I've never seen Hobbes pissing on anything. Furthermore, Watterson never authorized a single piece of merchandise, so those are all appropriations of the awesomeness that is Hobbes. He's hardly a Confederate flag...

Anyone not voting for Hobbes would then have to sing the Very Sorry song.

Don't you badmouth Hobbes!
