I'm a Chicago girl/Hawks fan and couldn't be happier Torres got suspended 25 games, even though Phoenix is going to take the series :( I completely agree though - I don't understand the fuckery of this year's playoffs!

THANK YOU! I read "Cain" and thought "uh, what happened to Tammy Lynn Michaels?" Nicole was the best character by far on Popular. #corrections

Mine are "migraines." Mostly because my head hurts so badly I can't move. The only difference is it's a self-induced migraine...

Last summer I was in the hospital with (mono-induced) dehydration, exhaustion, and severe pain. I really missed my chance to get naked in public while high as a kite, yeah?

Don't you mean an emoticon of respect?

Which tooth was it on? Last year I had to have root canals on my two front teeth because of an accident that killed the teeth, and it was easier than a filling to me. That being said, because of the accident, I had about $10K in dental work overall, so the root canals were the least of my problems.

It always feels weird to read about major life changes of jezzies who a) I hearted before the star (my congrats are a few weeks (at least) overdue) and b) are suddenly in a MAJOR TIMEZONE CHANGE meaning I probably won't be seeing as many of their comments :( Basically, yay for you and miss you!

:( I'm so sorry for your losses.

I don't like talking shit about other people's parents, but...your dad is an asshole for shaming you for doing a favor for him.

It's never really affected me. I was aware that most of my friends' parents were younger than my parents, so whenever we'd compare parental ages, that was the only time things were different. Otherwise...my parents were just like any other parents. (And TOTALLY awesome, by the way!).

Yes, May 2! YAY for Tauruses/Taurii! And 82 babies, of course.

Funny you should ask, since today I decided to go through my Jez comment history. I've been commenting since 2007, although my, how the tone of my comments have changed (a lot less snarking and a lot more careful, similar to the tone of the site).

I'm 29 (exactly two months to 30!) and my mom is 66. My father passed last year at 68. I totally get the "older parents."

This is my first month off the pill and my period is due Sunday - so thanks for posting!

Thank you for that.

First question: did you sign a lease? If so, you're entitled to re-sign.

My pleasure! (or...displeasure, as it were). Please DO call your reps...they were passed out of the Agricultural committee (wtf??) to the House this week.

Let's not forget about two here in Illinois:

...I did too :/

"Generally when you're against something you don't think it should be an option." Not necessarily. I'm against organized religion, but I don't think that it should be forced out of existence or that no one should be allowed to worship in a church. Many vegetarians think eating meat is wrong, but aren't actively trying…
