I just start yelling at people "you asshole, my MOTHER (or husband or sister, etc) just DIED! How DARE you?" and watch their face fall as their day becomes terrible. It's fun.

Your wedding experience (at least on this front) sounds identical to mine lol.

When I was planning (almost 2 years ago now, in - an admittedly destination wedding spot as that's where we lived - northern Michigan,) we looked at a place that was 10k (our entire budget) just for the room. That didn't include tables, chairs, any services, dance floor or anything. 10,000 bucks for a ROOM. It's…

I'm so glad when my husband proposed, it was in private and in a very meaningful place for the two of us and it wasn't some huge, public thing.

Now that ISIS is fucking with this stuff, Indiana Jones is coming in to save the day, right?

One of my friends and I got engaged about a month apart and went to the only bridal show in our region together because why not, it sounded like some really stupid fun. We both had the bride wristbands and were carrying the bride bags and every booth gave us this look and tried to creatively ask if we were marrying…

Any recommendations for gals with 2 types of hair? My hair is INSANELY thick and goes about to the bottom of my bra band when straightened, the top of it when I don't fuss with it, and the top layer is straight with a little wave towards the bottom and the bottom layers are spiral curls all day every day and I'm…

Man, I must have lucked out when I interviewed an Academy person last year. They actually had some decent stuff to say about the films nominated instead of talking out of their ass like this person did for who knows how long. That poor interviewer.

I'm not really sure. I have a few friends who left the field entirely, some to PR, some to event planning, things like that. I know some people who just weren't willing to move to find work, which really limits you when it comes to journalism.

Only been out of school for a little under 3 years but man, unless you're working somewhere that's hiring mainly fresh out of school people (one department at my first job out of college started doing that when they started growing dramatically. For a while, I was the only girl there and the youngest one there by a…

Once I realized how good they were when I made them myself (I grew up in the south and now I live in the frozen north and nowhere here has passable tortillas except one place I found that's too expensive to eat at regularly and they frown on me taking armfuls of tortillas) I just do that. No store bought brand can cut…

My cousin and his wife registered for a hatchet (I'm guessing for camping? Who knows?) so we got them the hatchet. And a set of sheets.

Literally everyone who ingests this dies at some point. And if you breathe it in, you almost always die. IT'S DANGEROUS FOLKS.

We moved in at BARELY 6 months but had been friends for almost a year. In those 6th months, we'd gone through some really hard times involving health issues and making some really tough calls together. Then it looked like I was moving across the state for work and we said "screw it, we made it through all that, we can…

At this point, we should all be thanking whatever movie god there might be that it's not three more because they split the third one into 2 movies because apparently every book series needs that now.

If Harry Potter had an American cast, pretty sure this would be Umbridge.

Obama needs to take some give no fucks lessons from Hastings because damn, dude got it down. New dream: Obama to take up that attitude with congress every time they send some bullshit to his desk.

My husband and I are the same height, so flats for me! Specifically, sequenced flats from payless that cost all of 13 bucks and still occasionally wear to work if the weather cooperates and I feel like I need some extra bling.

When she said that she only had one pair of shoes, one of my coworkers said (in a Forrest Gump voice) "Them was my magic shoes." It took a few minutes of laughing before we got back to normal.

I want an announcer like that for every time I enter any room. Bathroom, office, kitchen, whatever.
