This is me. I just hit 25 and eeeever so slowly, I feel the differences coming on. Muscles healing slightly less quickly. Hiking up pine needle-y hills just a touch more difficult, leaving me more winded. Cigarettes finally making me cough and feel like shit. Getting light-headed if I don't have any protein in the…

Just a suggestion, of course, but do you NEED five frying/simmering pans? Just moved, myself, from a four bedroom home to a two bedroom apartment, and there is very little storage space. This mean winnowing down to basics, but life is so much easier for it! I understand needing duplicates of certain pots and pans and…

Not only that, why is there TWO people in the room with the patient? I've never had more than one in the room when my 'giner is out in the open. I'd be even MORE uncomfortable than USUAL if TWO fuckin' whitecoats were in the damn room. Meh.

I think you're looking at it backwards, to be honest. "How much control do we have due to evolution?" should be "How are we going to control our evolution moving forward?" We don't have control over how we are NOW, obviously, but we CAN affect the future. Not even getting into bio-technology. How are we going to…

Shit, I've been there. Since we've already broken almost every barrier, I'm just gonna say it: I used to shave the hairs off my nipples but I can't be damned to do it anymore. They're really not horrendous (or so I think, which is ALL THAT MATTERS) but when I used to, OH MY GAWDDD. The fuckin' nip itch ATTACKS.…

Hah! You're still on the defensive a bit, I don't blame you though. I shouldn't've used "you" and "we" like that. I wasn't directing it towards you; that's what I imagined YOU were saying. If WE (the people) are going to choose to conform, we should know what we're conforming to. If WE are going to choose to fight…

Exactly; each gender has their own bullshit, media-influenced, culturally-curated stereotypes to either embrace or fight against. What I got from the first half of your post is that if you're not going to choose to fight against them (which is the path that requires a lot more individual thinking and trust in oneself)…

In this instance, it's "its". I hope my wordplay sufficiently subtracts the potential perturbancy of my pedantry. ;3

Mmmmm yesssss (I said that as creepily as you think). Even my husband thinks I'm a weirdo, but I KNEW I couldn't be the only one. Come home, rip off all the layers I'm wearing, scratch the POOP outta my boobs, then re-dress in jammies. Bam.

It was a British guy, soo0oo0oo...

Personally, I don't do it because I feel weird touching my nipples in public. Like, it's automatically sexual. I'll do a good scratching on my ribs where the bra hooks, but I leave the ACTUAL tit-scratching for home. Plus, it's much more satisfying to do when you can completely remove the bra first. :D

British humor...why are you so ENIGMATIC?

Yes, this. It LOOKS like an Elder Scrolls game, it PLAYS like any other MMO (minus some minor elements, like gathering ingredients and some crafting stuff). It needs to find that sweet spot in between. Interestingly, (I think), when I opted-in to the surveys for the beta, the surveys seem mainly concerned with how…

I'm actually totally with you on this. I think your main problem (why you're getting flamed) is simply your wording. But, like you said, "Gestalt therapy"—not trying to be sensitive or PC. Still, using phrases like "some fat girl" is automatically inflammatory versus saying "some morbidly overweight person". Then…

I must theorize that Clint Eastwood recognized that "panic, life-threatened" look immediately BECAUSE he is an actor whose many character roles have induced that look from bad-guy-co-characters. Good work, Mr. Eastwood. I will not touch the subject of whether or not the guy's life was WORTH saving; I'll just stay in…

Oh my fucking god, she is like a creature crafted from pure grace and flow, SHE IS NOT EVEN HUMAN, and I actually got chills a few times, with her little foot-pointy-moves and leg-sweeps and JUST...JUST, thank you. I always think really good ballet dancing makes humans look like animals. In a good way, y'know? And she…

All I wanted to do was relentlessly mock you for using "gravitas" because it is a silly word; but I agree with you completely! His face, it has NONE. Poor kid.

Guuuuhhhh~ the boho in me just luuuuuvs it. Brown is just so great, I don't know why.

Y'know, I hate to say it but if she went brunette I think she could basically pull this whole look off. Alas... she is not brunette. 3;

I fucking love this color and can someone who knows THINGS about makeup take a reckonin' towards what color this might be so I can scour drugstores for a cheap imitation of it later? Alba is my skintone twinsie, and I wanna look like that. Sometime. Y'know, in the future, maybe. Spring equinox. Who knows?!
