pretty much all of her quotes are pretty great. Mr. Wildbandicoot and I cracked up when she said "put that in your pipe and smoke it" too..

I want a shirt with"Weekends?? What on *earth* are those??" on it. possibly also with a silhouette of the dowager countess on it.

Awwww. :)

I rather liked that movie.

I also enjoy using Old Spice deodarant mostly because it makes me smell like Mr.WildBandicoot and that makes me feel all cuddly and happy. It also seems to work better than my lady deodorants (which I usually get fragrance free and so forth, but still smell vaguely of baby powder). He does not like it when I use his…

I tell them we plan to have kids. I.e. Baby GOATS. someday anyway (i can dream about having goats and keeping bees...)

(actually we're fairly lucky in that most of our family-his and mine- are okay with us not having kids. my mom & grandfather are still a little bit in denial, and he's got an aunt that doesn't get it,…

I think it's more of a youthful thing than anything else- having bigger eyes makes people look younger (because younger humans and other mammals *do* have relatively bigger eyes b/c they haven't matured), and since the current culture values youth as a major aspect of beauty, that is what many people try to emphasize.

I wanted a woman as well (sassy ginger FTW) and I love Doctor Who. Also it's canon for time lords to swap gender (and race), so it would have worked (though everything I've heard/seen from Steven Moffat makes me worry that he wouldn't've done a lady doctor justice, because he seems kind of sexist to me). Barring that,…

Yes this! Thank you for eloquently (and diplomatically) putting in writing all the problems I also have with pregnant ladies/parents. Having babies doesn't make anyone MORE special- unless that also makes everything else that has babies more special (cats, dogs, cows, goats, monkeys, etc).

Me too! I definitely was expecting an article on the noble art of handbag fu. I am somewhat disappointed.

most dogs aren't bigger or stronger than the average human. Unless you're planning to get a REALLY big dog (and even then, a male english mastiff only weighs in at around 100-120. ), you're still going to be bigger and stronger than your dog. You're also at an advantage if you do any kind of training with your dog…

The beard makes him look a little like Bradley Cooper...which works but I think I prefer David Beckham sans beard.

did you name your dog after the dog in "Making Money" by terry pratchett?? because that's sort of awesome

White Anglo Saxon Protestant. Known for being a bit repressed and prudish. Often seen wearing J-crew or Lacoste

As someone with major food allergies, I think if someone was planning to give food, they should at least check with someone close to the to-be-weds and make sure that they could actually enjoy the gift (but i would never ever say anything if someone gave me something I couldn't eat. You can always find someone who…

I sort of feel like they're all terrible people for this exchange. And rude- why would you even get into this kind of bitchy texting fight?
Yeah, a food basket is kind of a shitty wedding gift (but suck it up people and just say thank you, sometimes that's something you have to deal with when random people give you…

in dressmaking, your "true" waist *is* a few inches your belly button (if you ever get or make custom clothing, that's where they're going/you need to measure your waist).

really well trained booth dogs. They'd have to go out every 8 hours or so (so it couldn't be puppies), but still.

I'm not sure if singlets are the most flattering thing to put a man in (even a well muscled man). I ran track/cc in high school & college, and although there were some attractive male sprinters (the distance guys were a bit on the gaunter side), they did not look good in skin tight singlets. Still I am for this. Booth…

It's Banana Republic (get it? Fruit + Form of Government) :)
