Can we blow up the "know your audience" to a million pixels? There's work jokes and outside jokes. I have some great jokes that will crack my friends up, but are no way appropriate for the work place. And most of those jokes are funny because my friends know that I would never be that racist/sexist/stupid.

Exactly. I was also very different from my mother and I don't think she knew how to handle it. She expected me to be more like her at that age, I assume, and be a terror, sneak out at night, do drugs, have sex, get into trouble, whatever. So she told me all the time that she was watching me and knew everything I…

Or you could close your door. I resorted to this after finding a hairball in my bed.

I always love that argument. It's akin to saying that the jerk in high school that used to make snarky, backhanded comments about everyone was really awesome, but the super nice guy that was genuinely interested in everyone they met and instantly connected with strangers was somehow an oafish lemming. In all other…

I can see several areas where my parents weren't happy and it made my brother and I miserable. They stayed together for a long time "for the kids" and I think it was the worst thing they could have done.

For pronunciation, you have to change your perception of what you think it'll sound like. For example, the "e" in Edgar doesn't sound like "Eeee"dgar but "eh"dgar. The "a" in automobile doesn't sound like "A"-to-mobile but "ah"-to-mobile.

I'm finding it difficult that they don't really say "I" or "you" and that they declare the subject.

We went to a class two years ago that told us step by step what to expect in buying a house. Then we were eligible for lower interest rates, or down payment assistance, which I think ended up being $5,000. It was a life saver.

I'm trying to learn Japanese on my own. It's nice because I can take it at my own pace. I've got several free apps that have helped with the hiragana, one of the written languages (they have three, yippee). Without having to cram for tests or learn a lot all at once, it makes it much more fun to learn.

I always wake up with a slew of problems in my head. It's not even the "I hate getting up/going to work" problem (though it might factor in). I'd actually like to know how to wake up without thinking of every problem ever (and it tends to be big problems like what's wrong with our nation, etc etc)

In interviews leading up to the game, Molyneux had made ambitious promises—that Fable would let you have children; that the game would span your hero's whole lifetime; that you could knock an acorn off a tree and slowly, over the course of the game, watch it grow into a tree of its own. None of those things happened.

Myth #5: A Judge Will Excuse You from Jury Duty If You're Biased

That's a difficult question and really out of my league. I know nothing about art. I'll answer to the best I can.

I'm not "outraged," I'm presenting you with my interpretation.

So it's impossible to market a doll that has a healthy body shape? Because why? If you think they are going to market it and package it in the worst way possible, that's just your assumption. And there's obviously a demand for it, Barbie is under fire right now, so why do you automatically assume it must fail?

When people say "Barbie doll proportions," we don't mean EXACTLY. We mean unrealistic tiny waist, zero hips, big perky boobs, and permanently in heels.

I think Bratz and Monster High are unrealistic too. I feel better about Monster High because they are very different from each other, instead of one white girl that gets to do everything.

Says Barbie doesn't cause unrealistic expectations; people call a doll with realistic proportions "fat, ugly, and stupid"

What is your capacity in the hospital? It was my understanding that a lot of people are a lot of different shapes. How did you determined she's overweight? She's got big hips, but maybe it's because they put real undies on her instead of Barbie's fake bikini mold. Would those hips be more normal in a women who's…
