Off topic, but you accidentally made me feel better... I am a single childless 27-year-old in the Midwest and I am looked at as, at best, a crazyperson. I've been eyeing the West Coast for a move to find people more like me...

Q: Why did you have children at 22?
SF mom here, 36 years old with a 14, 5 and 2 year old. Minds are blown when people find out I have a teen son!
I think when people make shitty comments like that they are probably thinking of what THEY were like at 24 and assuming you were the same (which you obviously were not).
I'm the Bay Area and I kind of wish I knew some people that were cooler with younger motherhood. I'm 28 and I have a 6 year old and 2 year old. I'm a badass mom, I volunteer, my marriage is totally good... but people seem to have no problem beginning a conversation with me with "why on earth do you have children,…
This seems uncalled for. I had an image like this of the perfect guy when I was in college. It was just as unrealistic and fantastical as this one. I bet a lot of women did. We are all affected by music, film and television when it comes to attraction and what we look for in a mate, sometimes to ridiculous affect. …
Legal and tax advantages, big party, and to be honest I just like the idea of a codified, witnessed commitment.
I feel like he gave himself a little pep talk there near the end when he jumped back up again before finally getting the cracker "Damnit Douglas, you can do this! You've stolen hundreds of crackers before, this one is no different. Now you go back down there and you get that cracker!"
Re: Bates, right?? I also don't understand how in last season the characters are all, "There's no way Bates could have murdered someone. He's not that kind of person. I know. Here's something convenient that (kind of) proves it." and now we're all "SHIT DON'T TELL BATES HE MIGHT MURDER SOMEONE". I mean, either he's…
Edith!!! OMG! I was totally predicting that particularly story angle to happen to Rose...but Edith is even better! Though I'm glad Rose is currently finally doing something scandalous, because I'd been disappointed in her so far. I wanted her to go all jazz age flapper on us.
I hate catalogs that carry men's sizes up to Santa Claus but for women think a size 16 is XL.
It depends, if it's typical brain dead stuff that average people watch or do? less than 1 hour a day.
I will say from my own personal experience with my 3yo son, that screen time does something bad to his brain. Doesn't matter if it's interactive like a tablet or passive like TV, educational or otherwise. In the past we would let him play on the tablet in the morning while Mommy caught a few extra Z's. She was then…
It kills me that in the very last shot, with Katniss covering her ears, you can see Peeta kneeling on the other side of the barrier, with his hands pressed against it trying to calm her down. Swoon. Love me some Peeta.
Same story here, my husband had was born with a very, very mild form of this. Got it corrected in surgery as a baby, and unless he ever told me I would never have known. Everything looks and works great now, so the docs obviously did a good job, but it's a real thing that I probably wouldn't have believed if I didn't…
Some experts are skeptical — believing that the majority of handprints were made by adolescent boys
Ah, Norway! Land of my people! A Norwegian television station has announced that they plan to broadcast the world…
Destroyed? I'm sorry, did roving bands of angry feminists come through and burn Steubenville to the ground, salting the earth on the way out? Nope! Two boys were put on trial, convicted, and sentenced. Adults were told to take responsibility for their role in what happened. As for Christmas day death threats, that is…
This. Totally this. My husband's mother sent him out into the world without a shred of an idea of how to take care of himself. He once called me across the country with a question on a box of mac and cheese (not kidding). Now we're getting divorced and I find myself doing little things like teaching him about the…
I'm so tired of the idiots complaining about the contraception mandate. A person works for their insurance coverage. It is not a gift, it is part of an employee's compensation. If they want to use the insurance they earned, for contraception, they should be able to do so, without all this drama.
