thank you! People think I'm just being a dick every time I question the automatic soldier worship. They're like "these people are over there fighting and risking their life for YOU!"

Basic background checks absolutely involve a credit report. I would run one on a live-in nanny, without question.

YUP. Fuck all the people crowing about "victim-blaming". If anyone is the "victim" here is the children who now been placed into a horrible situation due to their parents' practically criminal negligence. For all the fighting that goes on in the posts about people leaving their kids in their car for five minutes,…

Thank you. I hate when people think Spanx is about squeezing into too-tight clothing. I wear it to reduce chub rub and to look less lumpy.

That's how I feel about groomsmen wearing Chucks. Like, yawn.

Keep commenting! People need to know this shit. It's also important to check weight. I breastfed my baby for a few days post-partum and he seemed just fine and was wetting an average number of diapers; but my milk never came in much at all and he wasn't getting anywhere near enough. He was dehydrated and lost like 30%…

If you mean the constant sex happening anywhere and everywhere, she says they didn't get that right at all. She said it happened, but nowhere near the extent on the show, and that guards would never let it get that excessive. She said basically you were lucky to make out or get fingered for like 5 seconds before…

Yeah but there's a point where that type of criticism is valid. I mean, I know suspension of disbelief is necessary, particularly for cop/medical/legal dramas (legal dramas would be boring as fuck if they were realistic).

LOVE. You didn't even exceprt the best part of her review, calling bullshit on the prison kitchen. I have thought that was total horse poop since the very first episode where Red was able to "starve Piper out". She points out that no prison would give one inmate that kind of authority over others, that while prisoners…

They wrote the film together and have been working on it for seven years as a passion project, and only recently did she earn the juice in Hollywood to get it made, actually. It's entirely their project.

Well...she's a comedian. She spent years doing improv in the Groundlings, and she writes a lot of her own shit. She co-wrote this new movie Tammy with her husband (also a Groundlings guy), and she told Howard Stern earlier this week that the part in Bridesmaids was originally supposed to be a "meek, quiet" role and…

I'd suggest checking out The Heat. She plays a bully and loudmouth, but her weight has nothing to do with it. I could see the same role being played by a thin actress (not always the case with her other characters). There's a running gag about how she has casual sex and all the guys are interested in pursuing…

I cannot abide Sandy Hook truthers—-what the fuck do they think happened to the kids who are now just gone? Do they think they're still alive? Do they think the families got paid to have funerals and put on a big public display of mourning and really their kids are like at a Swiss boarding school or some shit? Do they…

I was gonna say...he did a lot for Harry and all, but Sirius Black could be kind of a dick. Lots of Potter characters could be dicks—it was better that way. Hell, even Harry's sainted dad was an asshole in high school!

Rachel McAdams, sporting the haircut I wish I could have but always looks awful when I try. Sigh. Oh yeah and movie luv blah blah "let's try to die at the same time and it totally works omg!" blah blah.

Yeah, they aren't reading, but are probably looking at bewbs and butts.

Sooooo much of this stuff is optional though. The only requirement a bridesmaid has is to show up on the day wearing the dress/shoes the bride picked. If you want to do your own hair/nails/makeup because you can't afford it, then the bride should either understand completely (because she's a good friend) or will offer…

I can't help it. I snorted.

That's like saying "Cars crash. Babies should not be in that equation." Risks are risks. We can wish they didn't exist, but the odds of your baby dying in a car crash are monumentally higher than someone breaking into your car and driving off with it in the 10 seconds that it takes to pay for gas.

I get that too—I'd definitely take neighborhood/surroundings into account. And it may not come off that way in my replies but of course everyone should do what works for them, parenting-wise. I think I get my back up about it because so many commenters here seem to think leaving your kid in the car for a few seconds…
