I will probably still play GTAV because...yeah it looks awesome, but I'd love to have some badass Snoop-like character to play in one of these - and so would my husband! I am sick of hearing "But...Portal!" whenever I complain about the lack of lead female characters. I loved Red Dead Redemption and LA Noire as much…

Yeah that's us too. I could move somewhere cheaper (both my husband and I have jobs that in theory allow us to go remote or work from other offices) but his parents live 40 minutes away and my parents live 3 hours away so we're sort of in the perfect spot for family to help out. And yet...still no dice. It's extremely…

Totally agree. She has said more than once she has no interest. Until she says otherwise, people should leave her the hell alone....

Mad respect to them! They are Not. Having. It.

Yeah he's been very open about it for years. "I'm never getting married again" has been his response to that question since, like, 1994.

Yeah this hits home. The mister and I have been married a year and so we've started getting the "Man, it'd sure be nice to have some GRANDCHILDREN" from our parents. But the truth is even though we make as a household upwards of $85k per year, between our mortgage (we own a modest townhouse - nothing fancy - but it's…

Hahahah. My husband does the same thing, except he can sense when I'm looking on Petfinder (we already have a dog) and will come over and forcibly take the laptop away from me.

I have a Mirena IUD and have not had a period in 2 years!

Read this article this morning. As someone who volunteers in ther rescue community , is a foster parent for my city's shelter, and has a dog that was once going to be euthanized because he was supposedly 'unadoptable' I just don't understand PETA's position at all. Yes, they see some heartbreaking cases, no doubt, but…

Yeah which is what made this situation double insane.

I am so glad the comments on Jez about this are sane! This issue came up in a slightly different way on XO Jane: https://www.xojane.com/fun/i-got-marr… and LOTS of the commentors there were arguing that since it's rude NOT to give a gift at a wedding, it's perfectly acceptable for the bride and groom to expect at…

God I had this discussion recently on XO Jane. That is NOT OKAY, to expect your guests "pay their way." If you can't afford the party, don't fucking throw it.

That Daily Mirror article lists Prussian Blue as moving from Bakersfield, California to "the more liberal state of Montana." What the what, British tabloid?

Me too. Tops and backs of my shoulders because when I was 12 and growing I was also a competitive swimmer and my event was butterfly. I was piling on muscle while growing and now I forever have the marks to show for it. So, you know. Sometimes you get stretch marks. It's just a thing that happens!

For me too. I usually work from home if I don't have any meeting scheduled only because my dog is such a jerk about meetings, but one time I was home and had, like, a 30 minute check-in call with a product manager and my dog decided to choose that moment to wake up from a nap, wander downstairs and stand in front and…

My dog's an asshole so I'd never bring him to work (he'd be all BARK BARK BARK. BITE BITE BITE. HATE HATE HATE) but I would love it if a coworker with a nice dog did so I could love on it all day while I'm doing boring shit.

Is this your dog? I love how he's all "Yessssss.... I'm very busy and important so speak fast before I turn this chair around."

I got mine last Christmas after I got married because I felt bad registering for such an expensive item when we didn't really have a wedding. I told my family that was all I wanted for Christmas and husband, in-laws and parents conspired to get me a black Pro 7 quart one and, let me tell you, even though I only had 1…

I would never have gotten married if I thought the man I married wasn't interested in being a partner and Co-Parenting, etc. (no kids yet, but will some day). I make more almost double what he does and, trust me, I wasn't letting my financial independence go to just anyone. So I can see why women are just opting out…

Yeah that was my first thought too. 5 weeks is a lot. I hope they are both well!
