yes yes yes thank you for saying so well what I was feeling as I read this! It's a very important, obvious aspect of people sharing their stories that's missing from the article. (We can't help that perhaps it also involves some self-center-ism on the writers' part. So what?) This is not the same as people making the…

I most love photo 13 - of Julia Roberts looking at the photos he's taken of her. THAT feels like a super-real Julia Roberts (it's like the Close photos... x 10). And I love the look she's got going. It includes personality that the simple face photo doesn't carry.

To each their own comedy-wise but for what it's worth I have a friend who works for Conan and he seems great. I've heard he's super hyper and intense (in a way I imagine Robin Williams would be?) but I never hear smug a-hole type things about him.

Look at why the UK was so glad to rid of Piers and fob him off onto the US. He always HAS been the worst. None of this is surprising. (Sad, but not surprising.)

I shower most every day, but I skip a day here and there if it's easier for my schedule and [*shrug*]. Longer than that and I start to feel gross though.

Haha. Oh well. weirdos in every culture! ;)

Yeah, I think she's upset about the wrong thing here...how about they made her look like a little person?

Sadly, it seems Huckabee-type conservatives have ruined sarcasm for me! They say the most ridiculous sh*t...but they're SERIOUS! Sorry 'bout that.

Doesn't mean she can't be a misogynist! ...You know, if she had been serious. (I swear know ladeez who would say that though. [Sad face])

Replace "women/ladies" with "men" and "birth control pills" with "Viagra" and see how you like it.

While "it's complicated" definitely exists there, too, and the "system" there is being affected by US movies/younger generation norms/yada yada and there is obviously some variation between countries (and all those other disclaimers!)...

Of curiosity, where was he from?

Yeah. You want to see many-a European's head explode (speaking in broad generalities here), try to explain this dating scene in the US to them. And when you hear the words coming out of your mouth, it becomes clear just how bizarre it is. Then- for the final act! - try saying something like, "Yes, I have gone on dates…

I that aspect, yes, what you say makes sense. But I'm not sure a basic acceptance of death is all that matters.

And while I completely get your real need to have a "viking" stance on it, generally speaking, people need to mourn when they lose a family member (in particular). There's no way around that. "Not dwelling" often means "not allowing yourself to grieve" and that just doesn't work in the long run. I heard a saying I…

*sigh* Thanks for that.

Also, "God" making a child born with blindness or a cleft palate...um, those aren't thing that a person will (supposedly) go to hell for if they aren't fixed. (The OTHER ways it's ridiculous to compare those things with being gay have already been pointed out.)

Irinically (re this article) I hate the back but love the front. I even love the belt. BUt the back? No.

I'm totally ashamed to say I've seen her on RHO-whichever city it is (Beverly Hills?) and although almost no one on those shows is ever NOT vapid, she has always rubbed me particularly badly. She doesn't just "refreshingly say what's on her mind", she says things that really needn't be said by anyone ever, things that…

Good to know. I'll do that! Thanks.
