Yeah but being a vegetarian traveling the highways and byways of America, sometimes it’s like a shining beacon of “a meal that doesn’t consist soley of french fries.” If you don’t eat burgers or chicken nuggets, the pickings are slim when traveling in rural/exurban areas.

Yes, that’s what we had as well. They were fantastic. Never denied a claim, excellent customer service.

It got may age exactly right (40). Which almost no one does—universally people tell me I look much younger than I actually am (this is both a blessing and a curse, as a professional woman).

Unless you can get that fund up to $3000 within the first year and only ever need it once, it’s not really comparable. I’ve had a dog with cancer, I’ve had a dog with an undiagnosable ailment (possibly a brain tumor?) that caused him to stop eating and required us to take him to specialists, and that same dog snapped…

There’s a ton of pet insurance companies so you really can’t make blanket statements like that. There are some companies that are great and offer comprehensive insurance at reasoable rates and there are some companies that are little more than scams.

No Fitbit? Hmph.

You forgot the most important one:

In what universe is sweet corn good for a container garden? Corn needs to be grown in a fairly large quantity in order to pollinate (and also you only get 2-3 ears of corn off of one stalk).

I somehow wound up with a Vera Bradley bag (or a close knock off, idk, I don’t even know where it came from or how it got in my closet) and I literally do use it as a diaper bag. #winning

Really? I’ve been told that on these things “sedentary” means “works 8 hours a day at a desk job and walks a little to/from the bus and does normal life stuff but doesn’t go to the gym and crush it for hours.”

Your username really makes this comment.

I suspect this is mainly true for people with higher BMRs (read: average to above average sized men). When your BMR is 1400 calories a day, it takes a lot more than cutting soda to lose significant weight. I mean, it never hurts to cut out empty calories, but ask any woman who’s tried to lose weight what the most…

Yeah, I'm a 40 year old overweight mom. I will never be ripped or thin—that is so not the point of my exercise regimen. I can, however, improve my overall endurance, lower my risk of cardiovascular disease, and increase my energy levels. I do a little strength training and HIIT on the days I don't run, but honestly…

An hour to cook onions for dinner? Ain't nobody got time for that.

And those people would be.....

Ironically, we're the biggest prudes in the Western world. I think it partially is our pop culture. Not that it's more promiscuous than any other, just that it's so pervasive and widely-consumed outside of the US, it gives non-Americans the impression that they're all experts on the real ins and outs of American…

I've been married 15 years and did a fair bit of travelling beforehand and didn't get laid once :((((((

Even like 20 years ago when I was living in China, the stereotype was that American women are always free and easy. I was really baffled by it but some friends told me that the state press liked to emphasize that aspect of Western Imperialist Decadence. And I was like, that's bound to backfire. I mean, "Look at all…

FLOWER CROWNS FOR SOME, BIG FLOPPY BLACK HATS FOR OTHERS!

It can also be less than secure unless you are mindful of your security settings. There are multiple reports of creepers using unsecured IP security cameras being used as baby monitors to... well, be creepy.
