Seeeeeriously.  I have a coworker who is always like, “Now that you have kids you’ll never get a good night’s sleep again.”  Um . . . my kid is 2 and she sleeps 11 hours a night.  I sleep 8 hours most nights.

I mean, it’s a kid who is aware enough to recognize (and bring attention to!) the fact that moms are often victims of those outdated divisions of labor. It’s clever. It’s funny.

Is this comment some kind of performance art?

I think it’s dumb but I understand it. Man wants boy b/c he’s obsessed with sports and, in his mind, a boy is more likely to be into the same sports the dad is. You can apply the same traditional gender crap to a woman who wants a girl (e.g., “We can go shopping together!”).

Oh dang.  Sorry for my snarky comment earlier!  She sounds like a real butthead.

I’m almost irish twins with my sister and I think she should defer to me as an elder.

Oh my god, this post is honestly the saddest thing I have ever read.  

And the bleaching isn’t doing anything great for their hair. Orangey leather skin, yellowy fried hair, still dressing like they’re in their 20s . . . I see middle aged women like this all the time.

That’s for the suggestion! I’m aware of the issues w/ CARB over the years. How is that relevant?

A U.S. president purposefully damaging the lives of his own citizens because they didn’t vote for him.  Classic.

Add it to the pile, then light said pile on fire.

The only fact missing here is that her parents were uber famous.  If she descended from normals she’d be a bank teller.

I agree with every word in this post, and the order you put them in.

When I could only see the top of the dress I assumed it was floor length. Scroll down 2 inches and HOLY SHIT THAT HEM. Yuck. No.

My husband once had to leave his very new F150 at the dealer for 22 fucking days.

Half the purpose of spending extra money to buy a new car is that you expect it to WORK because it’s NEW. You can hand-wave away everyone’s very valid arguments, or you can listen to what people are saying.

That’s why I always split my caviar with starving kids.

Ugh, just seeing that word makes me sweat.

We only have one kid (she’s 2).  Recently, we were packing to go on a trip.  We had been packing for TWO HOURS when I realized we were not making progress.  TV on.  Packing finished.  It is incredible what a toddler can do to your damn schedule.

That is some expert level parenting right there.
