I just started adding mandarin juice (squeezing out the Cuties that sit on my counter too long and get all shriveled and wrinkly) and it's sooooooo good.

The Minneapolis/St.Paul "fight" that just played out in these comments is the most Minnesotan thing I've witnessed in ages and also the most enjoyable thing I've read on the internet this week.

Neither do any of the people who were involved in the press conference.

Seconded. Also the part about "You never hear Tim Cook's net worth whenever he tries to sell you something" - yes, but people can buy Apple stock - they can get in on the game and share in the profit. That's why they don't talk about Tim Cook's personal net worth. Tim Cook isn't trying to personally sell you…

Yikes. My husband had one of his best girl friends as a groomslady and I thought she was bad. You sound kind of terrible.

Did you check the library? Mine has it.

As someone who has always wanted kids and is currently pregnant with my first, I am SO FUCKING HAPPY that I have many friends (male and female) who love children but don't necessarily want/need their own. I'm so excited for my kid to be raised in this interesting tribe of individuals, all of whom are capable of…

If I were a guest at your wedding, I would've stretched my budget and given a bigger gift than I did for the people who went above their means and got married at some stodgy country club. I would've brought a flask, too.

Nope, not a silly tradition at all.

I hope you think of me when you wear it to work. :)

I swear, I don't work here so I'm not promoting them, but I can't recommend California Carnivores highly enough - they ship in really secure packaging and have the BEST selection: http://www.californiacarnivores.com/

I was the "$80 Modcloth dress" bride. Oh, and I used a coupon, so it was actually only $75.

Ohmygod, yes. Don't say goodbye to the bride - just dip out. Also, RSVP as soon as you get the invite. If you're "not sure" then it means you don't actually want to go - which is totally fine - and the sooner you let them know you're not coming, the sooner they can invite someone on their B-list (and all couples…

I did! We "hired" the high school marching band (20ish kids) for a pittance - in fact, the band leader was willing to do it for free so my parents made a $300 donation to their travel fund and I gave each kid a $10 tip as a thank you. It was so cool.

Please STEAL THIS MOTTO! Take it as your own!!

It's totally possible to host a reception/wedding that doesn't make you the freakshow center of attention. I'm a natural extrovert, but the idea of having my relationship on full display was totally unappealing to me. Like, the idea of first seeing my groom while walking down the aisle and being stared at by 140…

DUDE, YES. People were SHOCKED when I said I wasn't doing a "walk down the aisle" thing and immediately assume there was some problem with my dad (who is and always has been one of my favorite people in the entire world and my #1 supporter, along with my mom) - I would warn them that they didn't want to hear my take…

THIS IS EXACTLY OUR PLAN!!!! The entire time we were on our trip, we talked about bringing our future children to the same places and how different it would be to have little ones with us at the historical sites along the Rio Grande in New Mexico, and the Painted Desert in Arizona, and how we'll probably skip Santa…

That totally makes sense, although I found it moreso came from people who weren't trying to sell me anything (friends, parents of friends, coworkers, randomfuckingstrangers). But, come to think of it, there is that whole "confirmation bias" thing where they probably got the pressure from vendors and in order to make…

We have the same anniversary! 3/22/14 represent
