I was raised to accommodate everyone. It's bad hosting to feed people things they can't eat. It also makes me feel bad when I haven't made everyone feel at home in my home.

I made some vegan cookies this Xmas for a friend and I have to say I was impressed. Though amusing that I had to explain to my family that vegan biscotti didn't translate to healthy (e.g eat more!) because there is still a lot of sugar.

Thank you. I need to find this study and point it out to everyone that has said "WHY DIDN'T YOU??" or "I would have totally."

When I started dating my bf, we both paid for our own meals. I didn't think anything of it because we were both poor grad students. Now we take turns paying for dinner, but I'm the larger 'bread winner' so I treat him more often. If we ever parted ways, I'd be a little shocked if someone else paid for me, simply…

You can change the way people think without killing them. It's harder, because people are stubborn.

Funny, I'm a fellow Canadian, but my mom's a Scot. So I was raised to be very critical of all aristocracy. (I typed aristocrazy first...)

Revolutions disagree agree with 'that's the way it is' attitude.

I've never cared for the 'that's the way it is' argument. That's a bullshit argument.

What you didn't like that I took your argument and turned it around on you? You are the one that said you wanted a good looking girl, so I used your argument to tell you what you believe you need to get her. I admit, I was trolling you. Actually, the last guy I found attractive was short and plump, but he sang to me…

You realize that beauty is culturally constructed and changes through out time. (yes, you do.) There is nothing wrong with challenging these ideas. But good to know you are shallow. I hope you are physically strong and hard working or beautiful because according to you, you will die alone.

False equivalence.

Wow people are awful. /hugs

It makes me feel a little better that when people complain about pregnant people I respond "I have no idea if they are faking it, I have not been pregnant. Maybe it is just awful for other people."

Sweet. I always wanted a nickname.

So when they cut out the six year old tumour from my uterus, will that count as a birth? Apparently the pain I feel is my uterus trying to give birth to it. Six years of that, I think it should count. I call it my alien baby. I can't charge it rent, but it totally used way too much blood. Severe anemia is shitty. If…

shhhhh that's just your brain talking, pregnancy is *natural*, so it's totally not scary at all to have a person slowly build an apartment inside of you and then pop out of your lady parts. (we don't say vagina, that's just rude!)

This explains everything! I've considered myself Lawful Neutral for awhile now.

I have a difficult time believing you could keep whites clothes (including undergarments - like last week's episode) that white. Who has time to sort colours and bleach whites in the zombie Apocalypse? Seriously, laundry sorting would be first thing to go.

I hit the top of my foot on my desk and yelled "Ah **** Mondays!" and then I read this and felt so much better.
