    I didn’t think $2-4k was outrageous considering it’s something you wear for life (ideally), and based on how much a simple pair of diamond stud earrings cost-it seemed pretty mid range I guess?

    Wait. How much are you supposed to spend on an engagement ring? I thought it was supposed to be a variable of two months salary? Or one month? I can't recall.

    I know this is an unpopular opinion, but some people cannot exist (safely or otherwise) in any environment.

    I think it’s because so many people *do* seem to play around with the idea of bisexuality and when they settle down they see it as a ‘phase’ in the straight lives or a ‘introduction’ to their homosexuality. That doesn’t mean that’s how all bisexuals view their sexuality but it does seem to muddle the idea for people

    People without enough problems will create them. People who go hungry, lack access to clean water, medical care, and who have held their dying children as they watch them struggling to breath couldn’t give a fuck LESS about ‘natural immunity’. We are a country of lazy fools.

    But their choices and freedoms are more important than yours. Didn't you know?

    Or TOXINS. Toxins are BAD. I don’t know what they are or that most things in excess can have ‘toxic’ impact but I do KNOW they are scary and wrong. I saw it in a mommy blog.

    It’s like the argument ‘if YOUR (sic for emphasis) kid is vaccinated YOU shouldn’t be worried about MY kid’. I see that excuse on Facebook quite a lot.

    I could see that. It certainly fills me up faster.

    ‘English’ bacon is pretty much all meat. But, it’s English and not easy to find in the states...and not really ‘bacon’ as we know it. Very meaty though.

    I find I get less horrified looks if I splash cream into whole milk than eat a bowl of cereal with half and half. Same difference but no one understands flavor. Delicious creamy flavor.

    I don’t eat a lot of junk food or packaged foods but I do eat full fat and full calorie items. Cream, cheese, butter, etc. as much as I want and as frequently. I’m a petite size 2 but when I was young a was a short size 16 and miserably counting calories.

    The easily fit into a bra. That's why I buy them...granted my bras aren't as full as hers would be if she ever wore one.

    I LOVED ‘extra rich’ milk. I keep trying to explain what it was to my husband but he can’t comprehend. He grew up in a diet coke/sweet and low fat free household. It’s sad.

    I struggled with my weight as a child/teenager* and gave up the struggle after a very bad break up in my late teens/early 20’s. I threw away every fat free and diet product and decided I might as well enjoy eating if I’m going to be fat.**

    Was marital rape even a thing when that film was made?

    But she stretched self satisfiedly the next morning! All she needed was a good date rapin’ to stop being so manipulative and sassy.

    My ex’s aunt was similarly punished after being raped. I can only imagine the ‘punishment’ she received after becoming pregnant and being forced to abort (back alley style in the early 60’s). They said she ‘knew better than to let a boy drive her home at night alone’.

    I don’t think it’s that uncommon...I’ve never had to (or even thought to) lock the door when staying at a male friend’s home, no matter how drunk I got.

    THAT is what mad money is for?! I always spent it on a treat or liquor. I thought it was ‘treat yourself’ money.
