Statutory RAPE.

Also, I just realized he's only laughing after his mom laughs, which makes me think it's a weird conditioned thing, which makes it even creepier.

I know that. I just don't understand why modern women would hold on to the custom of identifying themselves as a couple with only the husbands name. Language is powerful. I could never get on board with the linguistic erasure of myself, even if it is just within a spoken context.

No, U.S. Best story. My teenager smashes the pumpkin every year after Halloween in the back yard. Around March I had wild vines growing. This picture is the first orange one. I have several more that are smaller and green still.

Breathe DEEPLY!!! Breathe DEEPLY!!!

There are so many gems in the Clooney reunion piece. This one from his aunt is really cute:

Jeez. My parents would never let me stay at a friend's house if they didn't know the parents when I was a kid, and never if their dad was home. My mom probably feels very vindicated that a sex offender gave a preteen a bitch tattoo.

For what it's worth, I keep misreading her book title as "Hard Cheese."

She's the closest to the first female president, has more international diplomatic, and domestic policy experience then the current sitting president; and she understands how things work in Washington with enough clout to change it.

What's with you being such an asshole?

It wasn't like a vagina-themed birthday party or anything, not like in the commercial. It was more...serious, but still joyful. The women who came all brought little gifts, though, with something significant about them, ranging from a chocolate bar to crystals (okay, my mom's friends are kind of new-agey), to my…

If you have Glass, buy a vowel and a consonant and get that shit to be Glasses.

I go to Portland about once a month - if you're having business breakfast downtown, go to the Urban Farmer in the Nines for breakfast if you love meat. I had the best steak of my life there. There is a free bus to the Rose Garden/Zoo (I think it's the 84). The Portland Art museum is great and they have that Francis…

Can't offer much advice since I haven't been there yet (it's high on my go-to list), but a friend who has lived there says the microbreweries there are great, if that appeals to you. And another friend who visits regularly says Powell's Books is a must-see (it takes up an entire city block!)

the Portland Zoo is fantastic and you can take the train to the Rose Garden. There's a reason Portland is the Rose City!

Koi Fusion is sooo good, its Korean BBQ with a Mexican twist. Its super good! Also The Observatory for yummy sandwiches, The Daily grill downtown and Pizzacato if you like pizza!!

NOPE I've avoided that video thus far and I refuse to watch it now because there's two whole days left in the week and crying under the bed is not an option.

Ostriches are assholes. I'm glad he's harassing them.

I understand your point. I think, though, that the use of "articulate" to describe Cox in this context is directly related to the poise and grace with which she is able to discuss the topic, a topic that so many would (and have, like Couric) fumble over. Commenting on someone's excellent ability to communicate on a…
