Yes. Yes it does. 12k goal steps for the day on the fitbit, and a genuine sadness if I'm not #1 or #2 on my friends list.

Based on my knowledge (pop culture, anecdotal evidence, no direct experience of my own) I would guess that most parents would be having not good thoughts about their progeny having sex ever.

I just love that this was DIRECTLY below yours.

I really hope that people are giving you shit for every 6-8 *months* not years... because otherwise you are a computer genius and you should come make my 2 year old laptop stop sucking.

Thank goodness you said this because that is what I've been trying to articulate for MONTHS of hearing about this story. (Hiya alma mater, what's up?).

I check all the time too... But I think the bigger thing is that if you see it moving to not sell it. Just 99% of the time the answer is "don't sell".

I dunno... Jack Russells can be so nuts that a JT at 10 is as hyper as a normal dog at 5. I think my mother's JT started to calm down around age 12-13 (She's 18 now)

Ha, if my apartment had closets I would be so happy.

I want to buy a place... a condo. Cheaper than a full house, a group to band together to pay if the roof needs replacing... But my area has such an insane housing market I feel like I'll be saving forever to just afford a studio.

It would be nice to possibly see a sub-blog about male-focused feminist issues.

I see that. I'd guess its due to a couple factors... 1 - Jez makes its bread-and-butter from female clicks and pageviews, so they cater pretty directly to WOMEN even though this is "feminist" 2 - Lack of practice/experience from the key writers on this stuff means the writing isn't as evocative, its about as…

FIVE GAZILLION TIMES YES. Lying is not entertaining. Lying is not "funny".

From my personal experience, the people who were trying to "climb" in any way were incredibly devastated by meanness. And they were hurt by much tinier bits of meanness.

Would have loved this. Oh well (RE: All other replies to this)

HERE TOO. Hangover hell.
