@pretty.odd: Yes! the Red Tent effing rocks.

@musie: Ada's a great choice. Anna Karenina even better - Tolstoy does female characters with a lot more depth than anyone of his time.

@cdjill: Hey, the Rules can be great. As a lesson in What Not to Do. Too many women do that kind of shit because they somehow think they have to...and then wonder why they end up in terrible relationships with people who don't know them at all.

@philistereo: P. S. Whenever Gonzalez comes on TV, I have to run in and change the channel before he starts screaming incoherently and throwing things at the teevee.

@covered.in.beez: My immigration attorney dad has developed a hatred of many judges he comes in contact with who have no qualms about sending his clients back to their home countries to be tortured and separating them from their young children/pregnant wives/etc. We're all immigrants somewhere down the line.

I never read V.C. Andrews (since my older sister gave hers all away before I was old enough), but you know who does incest way better? Nabokov. Read Ada...

Mmmmmmuscles. Reminds me of my college boyfriend, the former wrestler - he had mad skills.

Does anyone have this manchild's address? I want to mail him a bloody tampon. Hell, I'll pay for the Fedex, it's cheaper than sending him to Russia.

I just read the article...what the hell is amazon mechanical turk?

In the post, the word is "tenets" of religion. Not "tenants." Unless you're talking about nuns.

Damn, I'm supposed to move out of Minnesota on Sunday, but I might just have to swing by the state fair first. Deep fried cheese curds and the endless glass of milk, so yummy (gotta bring the Lactaid). I love the midwest!

Damn, I thought the story about the Korean (not) spy was gonna be all in couplet form after this intro:

@neitherherenorthere: My mom had me when she was 42 and I turned out just fine. I like the age gap between my older sister and I, if we were closer in age we wouldn't have been able to get along as well when I was a kid. And my parents were still able to retire in their 60s.

I only know Lauren Conrad's name from reading headlines on this site...but have never seen her movie/tv show/whatever she's on.

Oh, first one was named Robert after Robert Plant. Who DOESN'T name their sex toys?

I don't get how people are too embarrassed to buy a vibrator. Don't you buy condoms? Tampons? I bought my first vibrator on a shopping trip with three chick friends. Later that day we tried to make cookie dough but didn't have a mixer for the butter, so we tried my vibrator on it - didn't work too well. hey, it was…

My dad is an immigration lawyer. I hear these stories all the time.

Okay, I just spent twenty minutes figuring out that she is in fact not a munchkin. But hey, I've never even seen a picture of her before, so...

@JessicaLovejoy: Y SO DYKEISH?: That song is totally stuck in my head now!

The end of Harry Potter? Fucking FINALLY! I think what clinched my hatred was when a girl in my 10th grade English lit class wanted to read The Philosopher's (sorry, Sorcerer's) Stone in class instead of Julius Caesar. I wanted to kick her in the face. There are SO many better young adult books in the world; Harry…
