I HATE the "everybody gets a trophy!!!!" mentality. Ugh. Guess what? Not everyone can be the winner and THAT'S OK!!!!

Michael Phelps didn't/couldn't swim in college because he already had professional endorsements, NOT because he'd competed in the Olympics and had access to "all that equipment" (um...a swimming pool??). Competing in Olympics does not and should not disqualify you from continuing to compete on the high school or…

The Blueprint Cleanses still have about 900-1100 calories/day depending on which one you choose. The green juices have (supposedly) 6 lbs of organic produce/juice. So the nutrient value is definitely high. There is a decent FAQ section on their website.

Me too! LOVE!

Origami is a great descriptor! I was thinking it looked like those folded paper fortune tellers we used to make in elementary school that told us who were were going to marry or kiss or whatever. Also: LOVE Zooey's look.

Thanks for posting this! Also —- this looks like a tumblr I might fall in love with.

Seconded

I actually had that sofa, except in yellow. That said, I really love this dress on her, granny-print and all. It looked better live though — much less like drapery when you can see the fabric and the shape better.

I couldn't decide if they were more Madonna or if it looked like a beak ate her boobs

Ummm .... see Number Three??

Huh??? Did you tell her all the things you've already done?? Just echoing what most people have said here: get a second opinion. I am a psych NP and have many many patients who do well on trazodone for sleep. I absolutely work with patients to use sleep hygiene measures (things you are doing/have done, including…

Ha! You win. Was just coming to post the same thing, and dear lawd I love teh GIS.

My exact response. And I am an ex-vegan.

I'm on the UWS, and I love it. Blocks from both Riverside and CP? And multiple subway lines, etc? Yes please!! I got a "steal" (by Manhattan standards) on my apartment years ago, and I don't think I'm moving unless I leave the city or marry someone who owns.

Seriously. My Manhattan apt is *maybe* 500 sq ft, and I really can't imagine what I'd do with 2500 — have more stuff that I never use but constantly have to dust? I still have a private roof deck and a working fireplace, I love my neighborhood, I don't need a car.... Would I like a bigger kitchen? Sure. But I…

I think there is this perception/expectation among certain circles in the Northeast (basically: you should pay your own way to my party mentality) but etiquette does not demand a gift at all, and if people are so moved to give (which face it, we all know we feel like we have to give a gift and usually want to!) it is…

A lot of winemakers use fish bladders or eggs or other animal proteins during the fining process. So vegan wine is wine that has been clarified without animal products.

Because "free" stuff is great when it's for me!! I deserve it/need it!! It's just ALL THOSE OTHER PEOPLE!! How dare they take government handouts?? Give me my tax dollars back but don't you dare cut the programs that I care about or use!

I didn't take it as an insult! I love therapy dogs. But for a good cry buddy, I'll take one of my kitties any day. :)

I am female and most certainly do NOT think that I'm everyman. If you pay attention to the link you'll see that I DID NOT WRITE THIS. I read it over a decade ago in a women's studies class in college and it made me start to re-think how race and gender impact different individuals, and to me, in part explains why it…
