So, someone above posted that she doesn’t actually eat a zillion bananas per day, so I got curious and figured other people might be, too. I just looked at her website and an article about her 30-day “cleanse,” and she said in the article that she ate nothing but bananas for an entire month (which jump-started her…

I baked a gender-reveal cake for a good friend, and they didn’t know ahead of time — they had the doctor put the gender in an envelope and gave it to me (or maybe the doctor sent it to me? I can’t remember). So they found out when they cut into the cake. I think the point of these things is that the parents AND the…

I have no idea what Christina’s natural eye color is, or if she is wearing colored contacts, but as someone with blue eyes (who currently has a very similar hair color), I feel like I should point out that the color my eyes appear has a lot to do with my hair, my clothing, my makeup, and even the light I’m sitting in.…

I thought that was weird, too. My mom had an ectopic pregnancy after she had already had a tubal ligation, and it almost killed her. Even if it hadn’t, there is no way it would have ever gotten to a point where it was a viable pregnancy.

My uncle is a cop and I know he got a significant amount of paid paternity leave. I can’t remember how much, exactly, but it was also like 10 years ago.

So, I’m not a mother of any kind, but I am married to an active-duty military service member, and therefore know tons of other active-duty people/families. It makes me completely insane when people make of big deal of saying they feel like a single mother and can’t handle it because their husband has been on a…

I thought the jokes that got the fewest laughs (despite being hilarious) were the ones directed at specific news organizations, journalists, and the media in general — either because they hit too close to home (like the Washington Post / “print is dead” stuff), or because people didn’t want to be seen as laughing…

The lady in the middle of the GB photo with the red coat is the designer (Stella McCartney), so I don’t think that is one of the uniforms.

I’m pretty sure those are the uniforms for employees of the Malibu Sands Beach Club, as worn by Zack Morris, Screech, Stacy Carosi, and the rest of the gang on Saved by the Bell.

Her argument is against the draft, not against having women drafted.

Well, and it’s weird because the San Diego Zoo’s other animals all seem to have awesome names that came from the language or culture that the animals themselves are from/would be from. I wonder if they had some kind of contest or something?

Ugh. I live in the DC area, and was going to have to cancel my membership anyway (because I am moving to another country), but I feel like even $109 (which was the unlimited price here as of last week) is too much, especially since not all the studios and classes I want to go to even accept ClassPass. There are some…

I’m sure someone else has said this, but the director of NCIS (and his wife and kids) on the show is black. Also, LL Cool J is one of the main agents in the LA version, and the medical examiner in the New Orleans version is a black woman and the computer hacker guy (who appears in every episode) is a black man in a…

Most of the reports (which the Air Force won’t confirm yet) indicate that this was a male airman killing his male commander. They have confirmed that both of the victims in this case are male.

I know your comment is sarcastic, and I agree that fighting guns with more guns is beyond stupid.

Well, coming from almost anyone else, the leg thing could have been OK, because they could just be pointing out that the baby seems to be built more like her mother than her father, but it’s pretty clear that he is saying she has her mother’s “sexy” legs. Plus, bringing up anyone’s boobs in that conversation is just…

This is awesome. Several things worth mentioning:

That is insanely douchey! Could he really not have just sent an email or something before you drove hours to visit him? Ugh.

Just FYI: Lancome does have a product (or maybe multiple products) in the US that is supposed to lighten age spots and “even” skin tone. I am uber-pale but my skin tends to get blotchy, and have a few sun spots on my face and hands, so I have tried some of those products (from Lancome and Clinique) to varying degrees…

This.
