I have a friend like this- married/ engaged every two years or so since age 21- and this one is PERFECT! Sweet girl. Hopelessly in love with the idea of love. We are in our mid 30s now. Hope she finds it one day. And Kaley too I guess.

I can only imagine. I loved them as a kid. Seeing that happen to my friends dad once (when she saw it her whole life) was an eye opener. I understand people not being a fan bc of pets and small kids- but that was something else. He was literally being tortured. And for what?

That’s cool! 

I have seen 3 combat vets have ptsd induced episodes from fireworks, but one of those was just the saddest thing I’ve ever seen, and I’ve seen some shit. I literally watched a 60 something man turn into a scared 18 year old reliving watching his whole platoon get blown up in front of him, and then when he came out of…

But still so many jellyfish out there looking for “civility” :/

I was wondering if it was tomato trollactually, but your way works too. Either way, still a dick.

Bc she’s right? 

I do understand the urge. I like babies. I like kids actually. Even the annoying ones. They make me laugh. They believe me when I tell them I know Batman. They are cute. They are tiny things. Small things are cuter than full size things (generally). But you can’t touch other people’s children, no matter how squishy…

Girl, same. But I used to be a preschool teacher, and was babysitting at 8, and I do keep candy in my purse, so I think they just know. 

I went to college with a girl from Honduras. She went through asylum to get here, at age 7. We were in a creative writing program together and in a journal writing class. In that class I learned that she won her her asylum bid bc her mother was a forced drug mule for a violent drug gang, and died while transporting…

I’m so sorry that happened to you. I’ve got a few, but at least I was prepped for what to do, and I wasn’t let loose quite so young. I wish the world was a better place. 

Here at bada bing, we are afraid of attractive black men, regardless of what y’all are wearing honestly. The hoodie was just an excuse. You might steal our women. We are sorry you called us out. Please stop. 

Ahh, across the pond. How do y’all live without target?! They are L. Organic brand if it helps.

Do what you think is right for your individual child- each kid is different. Also, some areas are safer than others: a city environment has different implications (traffic, space to play, knowing your neighbors, etc) than a country home. My childhood was spend in the burbs- in the 80s but my sisters were raised in the…

I have a soft spot for them. A very nice college kid there helped me out once in a jeans crisis (I had no clothes, and was just grabbing stuff, didn’t know what size I wore, was half crying bc I have anxiety with clothes from a past eating disorder.) the dude who worked there saw me kinda freaking, asked if he could…

Target has non bleach pads (and tampons). They ain’t cheap though, but for a one off, it should be fine. Can’t remember the brand name, but I used it after I had my baby before I had my IUD put back in.

A friend of mine had a similar experience, but she was taped by her mom’s boyfriend. He doc told her that was no excuse. She was 13. 

My husband watches modern family, which has some problems, but I will say that Phil (real estate dad with a sometimes working wife on the show) is a bumbling idiot who is shown doing domestic stuff, even though his control freak wife has trouble letting him do it. Also, the gay couple (cam and ? I forget- I’m a casual…

I do remember liking that one! 

Well ok! I will watch it. It may have been that coraline was actually gaiman, and a bit darker. I loved that though. My niece kept putting buttons in her eyes and jumping out from around corners (she lived with me at the time) after watching it laughing hysterically, so that endears the movie to me too.
