I think the author misses the point; it's not really about lying. It's about knowing the difference between when your partner is asking for honesty and when s/he is asking for validation. A wife asking if she looks fat is not looking for the truth or a white lie- she wants to know her husband is still attracted to…

If the bride is going to wear "wedding shorts", then the groom should wear a "wedding baja."

Woah, What the fuck happened to Hamtaro?

My mother has a lot of mental health issues (bipolar depression and borderline personality disorder) and she doesn't process guilt at all well. So she denies things so aggressively and persistently that you start to wonder if they ever really happened. I am (mostly) estranged from her because she was emotionally…

"They accuse me of being a terrible person, but won't elaborate about exactly what I've done. Well, sometimes they do, but it doesn't make sense, at least to me."

EIGHTEEN BRIDESMAIDS?!?!?!? Shiiiiiiiit.

I feel so bad for the actress.

That is fairly accurate, in terms of how my Barbie lineup looked. Missing limbs were not at all uncommon in my Dream House...

Why don't you just go with your friends to a movie and then sit in the theater and watch something entirely different on your phone?

Have you ever worked in a restaurant? Because people always claim that "but we'll be spending large sums of money" thing and don't realize how much restaurants really sell. There are parties who act so demanding because their 8 top is going to spend $250, while two couples eating together on a double date can spend…

yeah no.

A restaurant is a business that sells prepared food. If you are over 2 years old, you are expected to order food and drinks from the menu, not bring your own unless the restaurant has specifically posted that this is allowed (as at some places that allow you to bring your own alcohol). If you want to bring your own…
