Yes that one made me giggle

"are engagement rings basically just the carat version of a big dick competition?"

This so much. Little Who has wanted to wear anything from fairy wings to her favorite swim suit to school and I have to explain to her that there is a time and place for wearing certain things and at other occasions you need to dress appropriately.

This is making me feel all kinds of warm fuzzies and it is glorious.

My mother-in-law does. Le sigh.

You should probably lay low for a while.

Ugh. I've gotten that about my daughter who is 1/4 hispanic and has a darker skin tone than me (I burn in the sun while she gets a golden tan). You mean children can have different skin tones than their parents because there is a whole other genetic half you're not seeing???

I liked Penelope too!

"It doesn't last long."

Ugh tanning beds are terrible. My friend is a manager at a tanning salon and her boss will tell her she is looking pale and that she needs to get darker. She's freaking Hispanic and has the tan skin already. Her "pale" is my tan at the end of the summer. I love that she is the manager there but I want to deck her boss…

I know absolutely nothing when it comes to design and production and even I was side-eyeing that excuse.

How dare you insult Pop Tarts in that way! They have enough to deal with in their fight against the iguanas to keep themselves from being tricked into being toasted in incredibly creative ways.

"I felt an increased sense of loyalty to my place of employment, for having a great culture, and to my bosses, who were interested in me as a human being and not just an employee."

I feel that that depends on the age and abilities of the child. Little Who is 9 and I have had to work from home when she's been sick. I either take the sick/vacation hours it takes to pick her up and take her to the doctor and possibly get her meds or I work a little later that evening. Little Who understands that I…

Haha I say this now but when she hits her teens I'm going to turn into my mother and be like, "When are you going to college?"

We had Mega Blocks and the castle set came with a winged lion and the king had a lion headed wand. So obviously the wand controlled the lion. My sister and I would play while my brother worked the tape recorder (the one with the micrphone and the face on it). Her king said "Crap" and since the lion did whatever the…

9. Holy crap my child will be 9. My dad made it worse by saying it was her last single digit birthday :'(

Aw why thank you! And I do agree, she is the best daughter ever :) (No, I am not biased at all!)

Her birthday is this Saturday and I have Friday off so I'm planning on buying her that Riddles in the Dark set. She wants all of them but the Hobbit hole is her favorite. I do agree that it is super expensive. She received $50 from my grandparents and asked if she could buy the set. I told her she needed about $25…

As obsessed as that child is about "what happened then, now and what will happen" about everyone I am a little suspicious that you may be. If I see a DeLorean parked outside I'll know for sure!
