I think any business has the right to determine what kind of goods they sell. While I agree that not selling a wedding cake to a gay couple is discrimination, this is about the product. I fully support the idea that individuals should be able to refuse to write things that they don’t agree with. This is not about…

Claws. They don't even have to scratch it, just walking and sitting on it creates awful scratches and lines over time. I have known people with fake leather furniture and real leather furniture, and although the damage is different there is always damage. It tends to be a bit harder for them to ruin a cloth sofa. And…

The wonderful thing about the first movie was that it featured people with a variety of differences without making a big deal about it. Many major characters use some kind of assistive device, but it no way makes them less or defines them, it's just a part of who they are. I think the idea of having a character say…

Any nausea or cramping? I recently had an awful experience after being pocked and prodded by the doctor. Nothing was ever figured out by the doctor and I was not liking the meds the doctor gave me to control cramping, so I tried ginger. So wonderful! Its still a good idea to try an elimination diet and go to the…

I know everyone is different and I'm not a doctor, but ginger is awesome. I have had various issues like you are describing that got super intense after a recent abdominal exam. I was not liking the meds the doctor gave me and started taking ginger tablets and gin gin ginger chews, they worked so much better for me…

I am convinced that because of our need to push out babies our muscles in that area are just so much more efficient. Menstruation might have to do with keeping these muscles strong, I have no real clue. This is just crazy theory, but I'm convinced that since many of the muscles used to poop are also used in…

My husband once said that the women at his then current place of employment either didn't wear makeup or didn't very much. I had a hard time convincing him that they all wore makeup, some very very much. Men can be completely clueless.

10 hours late? Even when I had super regular periods I only ever knew that they were a day or two off. It was never " hey, I should have started today... And didn't." Now I have no clue at all what's going on because for years I only had them every six months exactly. A year now they've been monthly and I still can't…

In a bit of a procrastination related homework jam. I have an assignment due later this week that requires asking several people questions. I have only gotten one response because I started a bit too late. I was hoping some of you wonderful people could help me out. It's just three questions.
1. What do you think when…

Olive Juice tends to have a classic look. Not the cheapest clothes, but not super spendy either. The sale section sometimes has some nice finds. http://www.olivejuicekids.com/index.php

many of their advertised pictures do look like they are just starting to bloom. And the actual products don't look like they would ever look like the advertised picture no matter how beautifully they bloomed. There aren't enough flowers, they're cut and arranged poorly, the whole thing just looks awful. The problem is…

Most grocery stores have some type of membership or reward program. I used to find it creepy too, but it makes sense to track shopping patterns. That information can be very valuable, and many stores also give you coupons and discounts based on what you buy and are likely to buy. And recall notification is pretty darn…

You're truly not. I have met other strange ones like you who claim to love the nastiness that tries to market itself as a yummy treat. I just think it truly is one of those love it or hate it things. While there are a few who are mostly indifferent, anyone who has a solid opinion on the matter has a very, very strong…

Perhaps the world truly is coming to an end this year.

They still focus on buying media, not just watching it. The 4G plan is there so you can download new content anywhere, they want to make it as easy as possible to get that book or movie right away. They have always tried to work in some way to let you buy things anywhere as easily as possible. Yes, they would love to…

First of all "talking to" is a slightly emotional spin added by the author of this post. They are simply going to make sure you are aware of the benefits before you make a choice, which is a doctors job. Just like they tell you the risks and benefits of any medication or medical procedure.

I believe it said formula was to be given for medical reasons or by mothers request. I got the impression that the information was given if you made the personal choice. And either way, it will probably be along the lines of a doctor telling you the benefits to make sure you know all the options, as that is what…

Keep in mind that this fruit is pre-sliced and the bacteria is coming from the factory equipment. I'm sure it is much less likely to be a problem on fresh fruit from the store. I hope that makes you feel a little bit better.

I'm constantly trying to defend squirrels. We used to have a cat door (not by choice, long story) and one of our cats started bringing dead tree squirrels in. Then one day he brought in a live flying squirrel that we had to spend many hours in the middle of the night trying to corral. I try to tell him that the…
