You've clearly never flown Southwest.

In my naive little mind, I think the lioness knows that's a baby and she just wants to pick him up by the scruff of his neck and carry him away because he's all alone. Because I assume 1) she's well-fed and 2) her claws would otherwise be out.

As the owner of a schnoodle with paraphimosis (look it up, kids!) I have experienced my lifetime quota of thinking about dog penis. I would not choose canine happy endings as my line of work. And I love dogs. BUT NOT IN THAT WAY.

Wow...that's just...I have no words. I suppose you can at least feel confident that you are, unequivocally, a good person and your former friend is a sack of shit. She's not fit to pick up Rusty's poop!

I saw one in Silver Lake (L.A.) on a residential street, even. Go team.

Some years back I was trading stereotypical impressions with a French friend. Like, hey, I assume the French are all obsessed with wine and cheese and sex and are total snobs. I asked what he thought of America and he replied "You have the best of everything - but only if you can afford it." So so true. From…

Agreed. If we can invest in infrastructure as a society - things like the interstate highway system - why not invest in the health of our populace? Surely that's just as important to the economy as the rest of it.

She's no Jan Terri.

Sorry, just Old Navy for short - they have plus sizes online. I think it's at least free to ship them back if they don't fit but trying stuff on in the store sure would be handy!

As a big girl, I so relate. I buy plenty of things online, and end up eating shipping costs when something doesn't fit and I have to send it back which could easily be solved if you carried my sizes in person, yes, you too Old Navy. I buy at Target, ON and some online places for regular wear (One Stop Plus is handy…

Oh, the places you'll go! Like Hell, if you don't vote for me.

It's not so much that she was unwilling to testify (although isn't that why we have the entire Witness Protection Program, to entice reluctant witnesses to speak up?) as that she was a runaway teen with lots of troubles - not exactly the sort known to prioritize scheduled events.

I know. I wanted to point that out.

I, for one, always take my family planning advice from celibate men in dresses.

The YouTube page says that not turning your head and leaving your mouth open is the polite wolfish greeting - had she not done it, she would have been considered rude or hostile. CHOMP.

Oh, sure, Marianism is totally Catholic, but I figure even Cotton Mather would think Mary was a virgin momma who got married post-conception, right?

Yes, yes, but I figured everyone believed in the Virgin Mary if they were gonna believe in Jeebus. That's not a picture of a nun, y'know.

I bet it's hard for moms to say "I need something" when money can be spent on someone else. So it is totally up to you! It's not that she doesn't want stylish stuff - she just can't allow it. So that is your job! Happy Nowruz!

You know what? I think this sounds great. You and your BF are committed, and talking, and all that. So you're cool. And you know that your mom's way isn't your way, so you're not forcing yourself into un-fun activities. I live alone - nothing wrong with it! Solitude can be great and if you and the BF are moving…

Ice cream! It was a hard choice, but I went with the joys of a cone on a hot summer's day, or the memory of scooping gelato into my mouth in Rome...
