Oh, most certainly not. I just hide it by referencing my one British friend. She never talks politics in any way though, so when Downing Street came up I had to look it up.

I only know what Downing Street is because of Dr. Who. I did not even know about this cat. Clearly, my education has been severely lacking.

"So if just one American tunes in and rethinks how they feel about Muslims, isn't it all worth it?"

I was convinced I wasn't going to like Rosanna's dress on first glance but then I read 'superhero boob's and realized that yes... yes it does. And I love it for that. I'm a geek, I admit it.

I cringe whenever I see a Victorian house for rent at all. College students may be pretty hard on a property, but from what I've seen a rental house is more often than not going to wind up abused either from the tenant of any background or by the landlord not doing any upkeep. Even I finally took a 'I don't care'…

I am out to my parents. It went much better than expected. See, my parents are very conservative Christians and I grew up hearing about how gay marriage was wrong, how gays shouldn't be allowed to adopt, and so I was terrified going into it. But I suspected that my parents were catching on and my dad had quasi-told…

Will do. I've got about half an hour here before I go over to their house.

This is awesome! Totally awesome. I need some good news... I'm telling my parents I'm gay and dating a trans woman tonight. I think they already know but I'm still so scared that I feel like I'm going to be ill.

I'm a bit surprised too, where I grew up there were always poppies around this time of year and I knew what they were for. I wonder if it's a regional thing in the US. I don't recall seeing any poppies this year, now that I think about it. I was born and spent ten years in the south and I think that's where I first…

Can you wear a sign warning people with weak immune systems or other health problems to not shake your hand or stand in close proximity? Thanks.

I became a compulsive hand-washer last year when I caught a real bad cold while working in a small area. It was miserable and I didn't have any sick time left, so I had to tough it out, but I didn't want to get my coworkers sick - especially since one was pregnant. I was very careful to keep tissues and hand…

I've never been able to do the audiobook thing. I don't pay attention as well by just listening, so I wind up tuning out entire chunks. I'm going to be a print girl for my entire life, I guess. And by print, I mean e-ink.

My parents ditched the real tree when my dad had both his hips replaced. Hauling it was just too much trouble for what it was worth. I've always used a fake tree because I've lived alone in an apartment and never had space for a full-sized one. I'm going to have to ask my girlfriend what she wants to do this year…

The fact I'm here just demonstrates my company's feelings towards getting online during work hours. The way I see it, I either need a job that keeps me busy and challenged, or I need a job that understands I'm going to blow my free time on the internet. My current supervisor admits that he can't keep me busy all the…

I alternate between back and side. I use a down pillow my grandmother got me and I've always loved it too much to try anything else. I used to be a stomach sleeper, but I broke that habit a while back. I just put lots of stuffed animals on the bed now. Between those, the cats, and a couple spare pillows I feel…

If it makes you feel any better, the outrage being expressed at my workplace over his firing is of the 'why did they only fire him?' Followed by a discussion on how all these guys worked in an athletics department, there were plenty of blunt objects to grab and use to turn Sandusky's internal organs into mush right…

I'm a baby-bi, so I haven't encountered any hostility yet. In fact, the last woman I told replied with, "Yeah, me too." Right now I'm dating a girl and I don't care what people think about me or how they perceive it - I'm happy.

My boobs are not small. Nor are they petite. They are exquisite miniatures. Before I put these shirts on my list, I have one question. Ironing. I hate it. Sooooo much hate. How much of it do these shirts require?

If not liking Versace makes me unfashionable, than I embrace my ill-fitting jeans and ratty t-shirts with glee. Cause I did not see a single dress I genuinely liked. It's all 'indifferent' and downhill from there for me. Emma's outfit in particular reminds me of those pajamas I wear when I go camping with friends,…

I share a cube wall with HR recruiting. I can say with confidence that as long as you haven't written your resume in crayon and don't include anything completely bizarre (it is very hard to keep from collapsing into giggles from the one-sided phone interviews I hear) you will automatically beat out 50% of the…
