When I got married 14 years ago I was sure that I wanted to change my name because my maiden name is quite common and plain and my husband's name is a great combination of unusual and easy to spell and pronounce. However, after I'd been married for about a month I couldn't bring myself to give up my old name so I…

I did the same thing. It's too late now 'cuz I've been married for 14 years, but early on I often felt I should have just hyphenated the damn thing.

The other night, kinda outta nowhere (I must have seen The Muppets preview or something) I had this outrageously sexy dream about Jason Segel. I've seen Forgetting Sarah Marshall and thought he was very appealing but he hadn't been on my radar much since then. Until now. I've developed a totally insane crush on the…

Try saying it out loud two or three times.

A plane full of zombies on heroin would probably be fairly easy to manage. A plane full of zombies on coke? Now that would be a handful.

Burn through the Super Target in Grand Forks like a plague of locusts.

You, sir, are no Mark Wahlberg.

What are we calling the generation that's coming of age right now? Those born in the early 90s. Is that considered Millennial?

Hey fellow Winnipegger! This is the second time today we've shown up on a Gawker site.

I have some of these that came as a set and I love them in a way that is ridiculous. But they're a matching set, and they wash up great, and fold down really small!

All of these celebrities are already slim, why do they need to look even slimmer? What I want to know is, does it come in a size 16 and what would it look like on me? A lot of sausage in a little casing, I suspect. Also, what does it look like when you sit down?

The ALA list is not exclusively science fiction, it's all genres. IO9 just pulled out the sci-fi from the larger list.

A large part of the brilliance of the show is that it so astutely mocks stereotypes but not at the expense of the characters.

It's not the eyeliner coming off that's my problem, but transfer to the upper part of my lid. I have deep-set eyes and the part of the lid where eyeliner would go touches the lid under my brow bone. I haven't yet found a product that won't leave a a mark. I've found some that won't wear off, but even those still…

Exactly, for adults! So is SNL, where the reference comes from. These are the types of mothers who also complain about certain types of books in libraries and cannot distinguish between parenting their own children and trying to raise everyone else's as well.

Obviously, you are not Canadian. :) Or you would not turn up your nose at ketchup flavoured chips! I adore them. They make your fingers all red and tingly. And they kinda taste good.

All these shows ignore the fact that most men I know are perfectly content not knowing how to change a tire, and content to drink non-dairy creamer. But I suppose I, and the men I know, are not the target market here. I'm guessing they're going after the people who don't recognize Michele Bachman for the nutbar she…

You can be if I ever have the opportunity to be spanked by Michael Fassbender, I will be stone cold sober.

I love this stuff. I've got it on top of a super bright pink that's lasted for more than a week so far.

I wonder if the apparent nonchalance demonstrated by those who reply to comments directed at them stems from the fact that they've been commenting in a similarly shitty fashion on other people's Formspring pages (accounts? sites? whatever they have on there.)
