Sounds like my experience. Have you had bloodwork? Nobody believed me for almost a year until some random doctor — who I had never met before — in the urgent care suggested a full workup. I think it was just to shut me up, honestly, but the results came back and they were like “HFS that’s a high ANA titer”. I mean...I…

That “isn’t it great to know you’re not crazy” is KEY. When you ‘know” something’s wrong and all of these medical professionals keep telling you there is not, it’s enough to put you in a tailspin. I’m glad your wife is better!

YES! God, I forgot about this scene.

THANK YOU. good god.

Portos!

I would bet this guava cheese pastry I’m scarfing down that ‘time is slowing down’ because his next meal seems so impossibly far off... Or else he’s having some blood sugar problems.

In fairness, everyone was obsessed about those cases in their time too. Would have been exponentially worse had there been social media. It’ll die down.

EXACTLY. Cause she obviously DOES have good genes. She would probably look amazing.

I have never had the energy to really read up on the guy, and maybe he’s an idiot too, but somehow I always wonder what in the hell he’s doing with her. Like, he doesn’t seem like an attention whore. He seems just...regular? And even if she is “regular” when she’s not in the spotlight, how can he stomach her shtick…

Oh, Christie Brinkley, GTFOOH here with your “Aging is inevitable. If I’m lucky, I’m going to be running around as an older woman with my hard-earned wrinkles. It’s inevitable.” 

It’s pure madness, right? Which made me feel sorry for him that he actually thinks that way...which made me want to stay to ‘help’.

YES.

I’ve never heard anyone articulate my most recent relationship the way you have here. That insane thing about everything good in your life making him feel worthless. I live on the opposite coast from my family and spend much of my vacation time visiting them. Even EARLY in my relationship (couple months — waaay too…

Family Dollar, Dollar General, et al are fucking cancers on small towns across the country. I’m not the tiniest bit surprised that they suck to work for. 

I’m also a sucker for crap like this and I have two guesses for the couple to which you refer:

I’ve also heard he’s a dick, but I’m surprised at how many people are skewering them for referencing TLOO in this context. As I commented above, the masterful set design REINFORCES the movie’s message a thousandfold. Their cozy apartment full of beloved things...great lighting....love, laughter, art, music…

I’m here to say “why not both?”, because I feel the same way about the movie you do — I own it and have watched it a thousand times. But I was *absolutely* struck by the set design from the get-go. Their cozy apartment full of beloved things...great lighting....love, laughter, art, music ...juxtaposed with the…

Oh honey, it IS going to. I have lifted my left eyebrow my whole life (there are so many feelings it punctuates, aren’t there?) and there they are -- wrinkles above that eyebrow that are non-existent on the right. But honestly? Idgaf

The party of 4oth-week abortions!
