So Billy Bush is essentially Frank the Tank. I can’t say I’m surprised.

Why is it terrible to strengthen pelvic floor muscles via exercise? (I ask in all seriousness, I don’t intend to sound snarky!)

Along with PT, you should try Pilates with a good instructor (not online videos, it’s too easy to do it wrong and you miss out on the workout). Pilates has loads of exercises involving pelvic floor muscles.

Same age, same experience, and I also have light periods (now, anyway). I accepted long ago that tampons will never be comfortable. The diva cup mafia can also piss off. Begrudgingly, I’m Pads4Life.  

...and let’s not forget Kaley Cuoco’s sister made it through the blinds as well. I think she then got knocked out in the first round.

I’m sorry you went through that. I can’t even imagine. Sending much peace to you, Internet stranger.

I think the pilgrim who once owned those shoes is haunting you. At least he has a sense of humor.

Lifelong atheist here (my parents are non-believers). I definitely say “god” and “Jesus” on the regular. Usually “oh my god” or “for christs sake” or “Jesus fucking Christ”. You get the idea. It’s ingrained in American English, even for us heathens.

Luckily she lives in Connecticut, one of the bluest of the blue states. Not a chance anyone but Hillary will win there.

Me too! I remember reading waaay back in the day in my mom’s Star magazine (she lived for tabloids) that Rosie and Madonna bonded over their mothers deaths while filming A League of Their Own. Both apparently lost their mothers as kids.

This seems like the appropriate place for me to say that every so often a promo jingle they used to use on television for 227 will pop in my head. I only know one line: “227 is the place to be, with Marla Gibbs and her family.” It, in retrospect, was an awful “rap” song.

I used to hate top sheets. Somewhere around my early 20s I saw the light thanks to a boyfriend (now husband) I started cohabitating with who was pro-top sheet. I blame my European parents.

Is it too early to set the DVR? 10/10 will ignore work, social obligations, etc. to watch.

LOL at their target demographic of 25-40 year old women. I’m pretty sure the only women I see carrying VB bags are much older.

Cue the tabloids salivating over a Jen and Brad reunion (Jennifer Anniston Pregnant- and Brad’s the Dad!).

Kristen is only 4'11" so most people look like a giant next to her.

I first started watching Sherlock courtesy of DVDs from my local library. Most libraries have free DVD rentals. Now I watch it on Netflix. I did catch the Abominable Bride on PBS when they re-aired it shortly after its original run.

This reinforces my love for Martha. She has zero fucks to give, hustles like no other, AND is having dinner parties on TV with Snoop. Adding an endorsement for Hillary is like the buttercream icing on the finest dacquoise cake. It’s a good thing.

Sadly, everywhere I have worked has had the same maternity leave: FMLA coupled with any paid/sick time you have. Shameful, but clearly not unusual in any way (and I say this as a woman who chooses to be childless).
