Carly's story sounds so familiar. I was working at a ice cream/sandwich place when I was 16 that was running a banana split special. The family came in and I mentioned the special and pointed to the table tent that emphasized it. A couple of times through out the meal, I reminded them to make room for the banana split…

"Wow, this couple was just like Bonnie & Clyde... in that they deserved a hail of bullets."

Propylene glycol is in EVERYTHING. Hair conditioner, pre-made bakery goods, etc. I spent the good part of a weekend trying to find a premade cake that didn't have it listed as an ingredient. (Yes, it would have been easier to make one, but whatever, don't judge me.) Finally found one at Trader Joe's. PRAISE BE TO TJ!

^this.

I'm super surprised by the comments today. I was having my own academic memory response to this article. I graduated from a women's college and a lot of our classes would come back to gender equality in a way I don't think it would have in a coed setting.

Honestly, I wish the internet was not as anonymous as it is.

Liberal Arts Majors UNITE!

LOL! All that came to mind for me was Athena being born out of Zeus's side (like Eve being "created" from Adam's rib)... so maybe that? Yes, I have a BA in Religious Studies... and all it's gotten me is free time to post in the comments section. So... win-win?

I need to know what a side-Zeus is.

They do in Miss Jessie's, not sure if Carol's Daughter does. When Miss Jessie's changed formulations, there was a small backlash in the natural hair community bc a lot of people who are natural don't want to use mineral oil/petroleum jelly. Me personally, I'll use it, I just won't pay upwards of $30+ for it.

Not every place has a Target. My son in college goes to school in the boonies of Nowheresville and they don't have a Target. I've been asking him to transfer...

I remember when the main ingredient in Miss Jessie's was Shea Butter and not mineral oil, also at half the price.

HEY SIS! LOL! TWINS 4-EVA!

I remember when Carol's Daughter and Miss Jessie's were the only thing out there and I had mail order everything. Now I can get what I need from Target.

...and pregnant women. I've had 3 kids and nothing pissed me off more than friends as well as strangers reaching for my goddamn stomach. Maybe after dealing with me, they thought twice about it with the next pregnant lady but geeez, pregnant bellies are not an invitation to touch.

Let it happen. Because then all the money the West states and Northeast states pay in taxes that support the struggling red states can stay in the West and Northeast and the South can vanquish itself by taking care of itself.

Yeahhhh... I'm going to ignore someone who misses the entire point of a joke to accuse others of doing exactly what they didn't do. At no point, did you say she was unattractive or "hideous" so that deliberate leap into imaginary conversations that never happened isn't going to stop my giggling at your comment. (still…

The fact that you never once mentioned the movie "My Bodyguard" tells me you are a young person (this is what old people call young people) and I am super old.

I feel like jerk commenting on her looks bc FEMINISM but the fact that she is unrecognizable is a big deal to me. I have so many questions. I've been telling myself that she has the right as much as anyone else does to do whatever she wants to her face but I guess my own narcissism doesn't understand why she would…

I just hollared @ your comment. Excellent.
