I know. I get so sick of this argument! The problem is that a few, specific things suck away the lion's share of our money: housing, student loans, childcare and healthcare are the prime culprits. After taxes and the aforementioned claim the bulk of one's earnings, it is shortsighted and unfair to say "duh, just cut…

I make a lot of money, and my wife makes a fair amount and will make much more in the near future. And I sometimes sit here and go, "how the hell do people afford to get by around here?" I'm not complaining personally, as our finances are solid and I have no real financial concerns. I'm just amazed that people can…

Cannot stand Chelsea Handler. She reeks of that "please look at me, I'm so edgy and all I do is get wasted but I'm 45 and I'm so cooooolllllll!!!!" humor. I hate it. This is her:

Good God this discussion is so TIRED!

Sorry, you lost me in the thesis paragraph: "Despite much evidence to the contrary, they cater their overpriced wears to an America that doesn't exist,"

I know this is out of place here, and I might get some flack, but I gotta say this.

This article is justified because Lululemon is the only company that makes Yoga pants

I want my name to be Elizabeth Licorish.

"According to former employees, Lululemon carries a few "larger" sizes — a chubbotron 10 and obesity monster 12 — but they just don't have that many of them, and what they do have is crumpled and hidden in the back of the store."

And seriously, there is no woman on earth who doesn't know that adoption is an option. There is no woman walking into an abortion clinic who hasn't thought about adoption, however, briefly, and decided it's not for her. She doesn't need her doctor to ask her AGAIN if she's sure she doesn't want to go that route. It's…

Hold the fucking phone. I just read through the bill, and couldn't find any exceptions for cases in which the fetus will be stillborn or die shortly after birth.

I'm sure that, included in this bill, are provisions for healthcare for the women who choose to carry their pregnancy to term and adoption, including mental health counseling. Oh, and legal advice, so they know all the ins-and-outs of open adoption, should they choose that route.

Should we also require doctors to ask all pregnant women if they've considered abortion and hand them pamphlets with information on where to obtain them?

Aaaand that's one of their worst assumptions. I will tell anyone who will listen that I aborted my baby. I was 17 weeks, I considered him (I knew the gender and everything) a baby. And I still went through with it, because it was what was best for all concerned. If only they'd get it, that this is not some off-handed,…

Shit yeah.

Make that a four hour (or longer) video.

All of this raises very important questions. First: Do Texas conservatives think women are stupid? That they don't know what pregnancy is? That they don't know what abortion is? That they're not aware that adoption exists? That they're too dumb to understand that while adoption is an alternative to motherhood, it is…

Those guys are the worst. 'I hate it when a girl just picks at her salad. I like girls who eat!'

Makes sense. Is it the same when they write about how fresh faced they are with minimal makeup? I hate that too. I'm a grump.

I always felt like Cameron Diaz was trying to appeal to that male demographic of dudes who want a conventionally attractive, extremely thin girlfriend, but also, "Don't want a girl who eats nothing but salad and can get down with a cheeseburger!!" They are THE WORST. And unfortunately there are a lot of them,…
