You can’t have it both ways. You can’t sit there and say she’s a horrible human being who shouldn’t be allowed to waste oxygen and a horrible mother and then out of the other side of your mouth insist she MUST be the child’s mother. Logic isn’t your strong suit, is it?

Is she a fit parent or not? If not, then stop…

Dear pink=lemonade-and-magnolias,

You’re full of shit. Do you know anything about this case or do you just hate Shepherd because she annoyed you on The View. Poor you. Learn to change the channel and get over it!

Here are some facts:

Shepherd can’t turn the poor child over to somebody who isn’t a “self-absorbed asshole”…

Yes, that’s the way I remember the story, too, The pre-nup said he got nothing, so he had to find some other way to get money out of her. He got her to sign the papers, knowing he planned to cheat and leave. Then he got on board with her other ex-husband (father of her biological child) and together they talked about…

It seems so obnoxiously impersonal! I can absolutely understand thinking, “I just don’t want them to buy a bunch more junk we don’t have room for.” But a much better approach would be to call up Grandparents #1 and say, “We’re thinking about the birthday party, and we would really love to have a water table. Would…

My husband has a shirt with his first and last name on it (don’t ask) and he wore it recently when we went to visit his relatives. I mocked him the whole time. “Look everyone! He was afraid you wouldn’t know whom he was so he wore his name on his shirt!” I felt he deserved it. Maybe I’m just mean! (He’s used to being…

You’re lucky that unfolowing people works for you. They are probably people you aren’t all that close to, who won’t suddenly notice you aren’t seeing their posts and/or commenting or liking or whatever. For the rest of us, unfollowing often means more drama and sometimes phone calls, “Why didn’t you like the latest…

My niece got pregnant at 18 after dropping out of high school. Everyone said, “The baby will make her grow up.” Well, no. She lived with her mother who continued to enable her while she had three more babies with three more guys while trying to pursue her dream of becoming a rap star and going out drinking and…

Actually, facebook does say you’re not supposed to share accounts. I know they have these rules (no fake names, no shared accounts) primarily to cut down on trolling, but the rules are kind of a pain in the ass.

The kinds of things you say to your friends when they are annoying you but you still love them.

Yes! When did it become socially unacceptable to be honest with your friends? People have become so hyper-sensitive and so I-Can-Do-Whatever-The-Fuck-I-Want-And-Its-No-One’s-Business-But-Mine-#Haters about EVERYTHING. No,…

Gift giving IS fun! It's fun to go shopping and find something that person will like and enjoy and will remind them of you and it's fun to surprise them and see how happy the gift makes them.

But people who are so hard to shop for that all they want is cash take all the FUN out of gift giving! Then it's just like…

I was a pill baby, my mom told me all the time, and I always felt like a particularly troublesome burden. She was neglectful and terrible.

I’m sorry. I can relate. My mother resented me, too. My siblings are all very much older than me. Mother chose to have me, even though Roe v Wade had recently been decided, but…

Thank you! I'm glad someone else remembers the traditional reason for wedding gifts.

My problem with Honeyfunds is that it's an extravagance. If I were buying someone dishes or a mixer or something like that that they NEEDED to set up house, it makes sense. But this, "I really would like a vacation, why don't you help…

What drives my husband crazy (and me, too) is that his pants size is lost somewhere in the middle between "regular" store sires and "Big and Tall" sizes. His in-seem is apparently considered "tall" but a lot of the "Big and Tall" sizes are more "big" than "tall."

Having a guest over once in a while and accommodating their food preference/issues is fine. But I couldn't live with and have to accommodate (every day) someone with too many food issues. It's one thing if the doctor ordered a huge change in diet due to a health issue, but outside of that, no. I love to cook too much…

What's wrong with single dads? I guess it depends on the situation. How my girlfriends and I always saw it: Single dads dating single moms is perfectly cool. They understand each other and the relationship is fairly equal. Single dads looking for younger women with no kids so he doesn't have to put up with any of her…

How dumb do these people have to be to fall for this crap, though? All kinds of SUPER SUPER HOT models are all conveniently single and desperate to hook up with you thirty seconds after you signed up for the website? No red flags there.

Is it possible that she was super drunk and someone was "helping" her reserve the ride, someone who didn't care that it might be 9x the usual fee? I've had supremely drunk and/or just-plain-stupid friends who needed my help to show them how to use their phones and/or specific apps, so I don't think this is out of…

We had a similar story, I posted it elsewhere in this thread. The ghost we had was a prankster and we came to enjoy and look forward to what he'd try next. We invited him to come with us when we moved out of state, but he wasn't interested. Darn.

No one ever really believes this story, but I swear it really happened. I love to tell the story but I wish people believed me.

More than a decade ago, we were living on Fort Riley, Kansas. They call it a very haunted army post and they do "ghost tours" every year, a walking tour where higher ranking officers and their…
