If you are surprised by this, then you have never looked inside Redbook. Straight outta the fifties, with a SLIM THOSE BUNS IN 60 SECONDS ad every other page and a prolific use of the word "hubby" as in "MAKE HUBBY HAPPY -SEXY NIGHTIES PUT THE VA VA VOOM BACK IN YOUR BEDROOM!"

Truer words than "it is confusing in a sense" were never spoken when "it" refers to this word goulash. Not only is he inarticulate but he's an idiot. Most parents do sleep in the same bed, Juan Pablo Braindonor. Bad verbiage aside, we are the bigger idiots for tuning into this vapid garbage, which is absolutely one…

That's brilliant. And lose the cap sleeves and add a sharp tailored jacket in the same material. I think it would be great.

I was so smug when FresherHell was born. Her first name was grandmother's maiden name, then my maiden name, then her surname. "It's gender neutral! Totally dignified! She can be anything she wants to be...It'll look great on a brass plaque on a corporate firm's doorway!"

I don't know where you're buying them for a buck but I pay a lot more than that and I do, in fact, give them as presents and have for years - my vet, my postie, my various doctors - in fact I have to give two to my internist because otherwise the staff doesn't get any. I think they're awesome and I buy them for the…

I am saddened to hear this, since Facebook made solving crimes so much easier. It was getting to where all we had to do was pull up Facebook and click through the suspects' Facebook postings, which are normally neither private nor well-considered. In one case, the brain donors who vandalized a local temple posted…

Wherever you eat them, they are good...and there needs to be PILES AND PILES of them. The pictures were great!

I love oysters anyway I can get them but the best I ever had were from North Florida, eaten raw with fresh loaves of Cuban bread and butter and the coldest beer in the world.

I got tired of keeping up with the sheet garters and just sewed heavy elastic in the same orientation on my contour sheets. I used a buttonhole stitch to make a super heavy riveting bar. And it works like a charm. Now if I could just fold them....

I thought the entire point of the Kinja monstrosity was to avoid the kind of chillingly hateful viciousness of commenters.

I'm one of those short-legged, big hipped females whose body is widest across the thigh area because of the Plump Lumps I inherited from a long line of peasant ancestors. I want to go see my godchildren so badly - five states away - but I'm scared to fly in case I get on the plane and can't sit down. Not afraid of…

If wearing an old granny dressing gown is wrong, I don't want to be right.

Today's Fresher Hell, my kid, says I'm having eggnog induced dementia but Google agrees with me: there were aliens on Star Trek called Cardassians. Which sounds like Kardashian. And they looked like Bruce Jenner. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardassia…

And one of my buddies has this on his phone, after I thought I had hung up:

The rats I see here are rather charming and I can hear the love in the voices of the owners. The rats which come into my farmhouse are black as pitch, greasy furred reptiles that piss everywhere and scale walls like Dracula. And they are my nightmare. I once blew a large hole in my own wall when one began emerging…

Let a mini-me answer this...I was given my mother's name. Her name, exactly, except my redneck father hung a "Jr." on it. All through my young childhood my mother spoke both angrily and sadly of how she had hoped to have a little girl just like her to help her and be her friend. i was a great failure in this respect,…

How many of you are done with your shopping at Goodwill where you buy ancient rolls of wrapping paper to wrap your kid's second hand toys because you can just barely make rent? Poors are so creative!

(head down, hands clapped to sides of head, muttering...)

Wow, how embarrassing. I boil four cups of water in my dedicated Pyrex measuring cup in the microwave. With a lid. Then I pour it in a heavy glass carafe over a family size tea bag, the string secured by a rubber band. And...it's pretty good tea. I let it steep for about an hour and pour half into another carafe,…
