I come from a (crazy) religious background, where the main goal for everyone was to get to heaven. They would constantly drill into us that “Your good deeds won’t get you into heaven, only a good heart can.” Meaning a heart devoted to Jesus. I’m not sure if that was an excuse for their lack of real-world action, or if…

I believe you, I’m super upset about this! Ever since Fight Club, I’ve been in love with this woman. I love women who are completely bizarre with zero regard for being conventionally sexy or “normal”. Really, the worst part about their breakup is that she won’t be in every single Tim Burton movie from here on out.

I don’t love the changes either, but if I’m remembering correctly, in the book they would just go into the sunken ship and somehow there was a room with air? I think? This at least makes it more plausible.

Wait...they’re divorced????? Holy crap, I’ve been living under a rock. My first thought when I saw the casting was “No Helena Bonham Carter?” Now I know why.

Yeah, I actually kind of agree with him here. I saw a commercial the other day where a woman wolf-whistled a construction worker, flipping the stereotype around. It kind of bugged me. We complain about being objectified, harassed, etc, and those are valid complaints. The answer isn’t to turn around and do the same…

Haha, maybe. If that’s the case, they should probably just follow Taylor.

Thanks, I think you’re right, it’s probably her very young/innocent looking face that keeps her from looking too sexy.

Interesting that she’s #1. I honestly think it’s because of her blandness. She reaches across aisles and is completely inoffensive to everyone.

Seems like this is a better system. Less waste product, I would assume cheaper as well. I’m going to look for these next time I need some. Thanks for taking the time to respond!

Huh, interesting. I assumed the applicator was to keep the cotton smooshed tightly together so that it would fit up there more easily. Once it’s inside you, it’s free to expand. Our applicators are pretty thin, maybe the width of a finger. Are your tampons bigger/fluffier than that?

I wonder if you usually order a savory/salty breakfast, while Umeboshayy typically orders a sweet one. That would account for the different lemonade flavors.

That’s exactly what I was thinking. It came across as a good message: Don’t let guys (or anyone) pressure you into things you don’t want to do. Weird to put it on a t-shirt, but still.

Just curious, where are you from? I’ve only ever known them to have applicators.

Toilet paper totally works as a tampon, but you need to fold it up a million times so that it has some structure to it and doesn’t fall apart inside of you. Tissues are a better bet, they won’t crumble. You can also just put toilet paper or tissues on the crotch part of your underwear, but that’s risky because it…

I groaned a little when I saw she was the host. She (and her smarmy brother) rub me the wrong way. But she was actually really good! Funny, never broke character, her jokes landed. The impressions were great. Gotta give her credit, she’s a good performer.

Ooo, that sounds like fun, thanks! I hope there are some good “Chad” stories. Anytime they start hating on Chad on Reddit, it’s always a good time.

I love reading completely opposite views on the same issue/story. For instance, when the whole Ukraine thing was going on, I would read US news, the switch to Russian news. Same story from the opposite angle. Every morning I read Jezebel, which is liberal, pro-women articles. And then I’ll head to Reddit and see what…

Yeesh. I’m voting for Hillary and I still cringed a little at that ad. A little too over-the-top earnest and Girl Power!-ish for my liking.

Yeah, there are some valid complaints in this article. The use of “segregation” isn’t one of them. Bit of a stretch.

Yes! That’s what I remembered when I read the Salem bit. She specifically said in one of the books that someone thought it was fun to get caught and burned at the stake! It didn’t sound like much of a tragedy then.
