I’m only on Twitter, and it’s not to interact socially, but to follow a few people and organizations. It supplies a lot of my news.

It could also be what’s used to treat the water.

I know exactly what you mean. When I was a teenager, we lived in the boondocks and had our own well, sunk through granite. My skin never broke out. My hair looked great.

I have a new agey coworker who pulls out the “everything happens for a reason” BS whenever anything goes wrong. I stuck a page from a daily calendar I have on my wall that reads “Everything happens for a reason . . . and that reason is completely arbitrary.” I also managed to freak her out one day when I was in a foul…

There have to be trade-offs. You can’t deny yourself the occasional treat or you’re just working for the future, which, frankly, may not arrive for you.

The lawyer who set up the will should answer your questions for free. 

I had an aunt who ordered her scrambled eggs hard, and she really wanted them cooked to death, so she always sent them back. At a diner on a long driving vacation we took, I think the cook retaliated, but against the wrong person, because i ended up with two extremely long hairs mixed in with my pancakes. I mean like…

I pay $15 a month for Amazon Fresh service, and they deliver a bunch of groceries to me twice a month. I have two adult sons living at home with me, and the amount they can eat is breathtaking. I figured out that it saves me at least 4 hours a week of my time, plus the energy of loading up the cart, then loading up…

In the article at LA Weekly, it’s mentioned that Alejandro Jodorowsky claimed to have raped his costar during the rape scene in El Topo.

I didn’t baby talk to my kids. Doing it as an adult? *cringe* Gross.

It’s called upspeak. I’ve noticed that it’s becoming very common in Australia and the UK. I can barely watch movies from Australia anymore because of it.

Not a significant other, so it wasn’t as big a deal, but with a coworker, whenever they would ask those kind of questions, I would respond, “I dunno,” and turn back to whatever I was doing. Every time. Gradually, they gave up on me.

I have a Jeep Patriot that I commute with usually six days a week in the SF Bay Area. I get to extend the maintenance schedule on it from 3,000 to 6,000 miles between services and still maintain my warranty by using synthetic oil. Yes, it costs more, but I figure my time has value, and with the commute I drive, if…

Depending on the asker, try adopting a quizzicle look and replying, “Whyever would you ask such a personal question?” Then, if they don’t stop, burst into tears and run from the room. After that, cold shoulder them.

Your hypothesis cannot be backed up by any facts.

Whew. I do turn it up higher than the regular setting. Thanks.

we just got a new one. But, nope, not reading that. That’s why dishwashers are important. Think I’ll go buy some of the ultraviolet cases though

I have 2a hair, so I can mostly keep it straight when it’s that short, with the help of products, but even the little twig ends will start to curl up if I start sweating, which is why I picked this style. Trying to keep my hair perfectly straight is impossible.

Jane Marie, so glad you’re back, Jezebel has sorely needed your voice.

Dammit, Kinja.
